    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    Hey guys! I've read so much on here about tickets that I think I'm more lost than when I started lol! I'm in a bit of a pickle.... 1.) I have a ticket that I purchased in 2016 - 1 day PH with water park option that expired 12/31/17. Would Disney let me upgrade to add 2 days and then pay price...

    Good Place for a 10 Minute Rest?

    I know you said no attractions....but Carousel of Progress in MK is our go to nap spot LOL. Sit in the back row. Enjoy the A/C and the darkened theater. The family can watch the show while yo close your eyes for a bit. It's perfect!

    Just added old non expiring tickets to Magic Band, gave us a free day?

    Go to Guest Services when you finally make it to the parks. They had to add my old non expiring tickets for me and then was kind enough to write down what we had left on each ticket. Fast forward a couple of years... MDE is showing DH and I have nothing left on our tickets and our son has 5...

    Caribbean Beach is a Dump!

    I was originally booked at CBR with no concerns about construction. We've only done value resorts and AKL, so I thought trying a mod would be a new adventure. My rate per night average was $161 with the discount code which I thought reasonable. Then I heard rumors of the gift card and then I was...

    Animal Kingdom Lodge or All-Star Movies?

    If this is a honeymoon trip, then most definitely go for the stay at AKL! We've done the values and the deluxes and would happily stay at either if it meant a trip to Disney. AKL has a completely different feel than any of the other resorts, so enjoy your adult time (esp at the poo;!) and when...

    Please tell me about the good and bad of Pop Century

    We love POP! We've stayed at POP two or three times with our most recent trip being in 2015. It's such a fun place to stay! I guess our furthest room from everything was in the 90's section, but we didn't mind at all because it was so quiet. We didn't find it to be too far a walk from the main...

    End of February or beginning of March?

    I vote taking your trip during the second week of March next year. Mardi Gras 2017 will be Tuesday the 28th so that will lead to a mass exodus of Louisianans (which usually includes me lol!) to FL at that time. We are a very friendly and fun bunch of people but crowd wise, it can be a little...

    Experience of room requests via online check in

    I booked a last minute stay this past September at POP. I used online check in for the first time (with some hesitation lol) and requested bottom floor near transportation. To my surprise, we were able to get a room that met our requests. Sent my room # to my phone before we even arrived in...

    Pop - 80's

    We stayed in the 80's section and loved it! We were in one of the Rubiks cube buildings facing the 90's parking lot. Very quiet section when we were there. It's a 2 minute walk to the bus line when you cut through the parking lot. Also, the computer pool was right around the corner from our...

    Walk Distance/Times AoA vs Pop

    We stayed at Pop last year. I did online check in before arrival and requested a room close to transportation and I think I also requested bottom floor. (I didn't want to pay for preferred either lol) We ended up with a room in the 80's section, bottom floor, facing the 90's parking lot in one...

    Can Room Charges be Paid from Disney Vacation Account?

    That's one of the drawbacks of the account. It's not exactly convenient to access your money. However, you can convert the money in your account into a disney gift card but I'm not sure how long that process would take. I remember seeing that on the site somewhere.

    Online check in

    Online check worked out so well for us! We were able to get our room requests and Disney even texted us our room number before our scheduled arrival time. I didn't see the lobby at all this trip. Loved it!

    Question - are the Tour Groups there NOW?

    We stayed at AoA one year in February and there were at least 3 groups of them there. They do tend stay at the values.

    Question - are the Tour Groups there NOW?

    We left for home just this morning. I've been in early February before and have experienced the large groups of 15ners first hand. This week we found there were a LOT of Spanish speaking families but not the packs of 50+ teenagers that we've encountered in the past. It really didn't make a...

    Upcoming weekend - weather - park strategies

    It will be just fine. We were in WDW this past week and every day had 60-80% chances of rain. I was prepared for a complete wash out but it turned out fine. The overcast skies kept the heat down a little and the few sprinkles we encountered weren't even enough to shut down rides. Have a...

    Any news or updates on Purple Magic Bands?

    If you reeeeally want a purple band, go ahead and paint it yourself. I did mine yesterday and it came out even better than I expected. I used a metallic purple craft paint. Just seal it with a coat of clear nailpolish. I'm a purple girl too =)

    Booking ASMu through Orbitz

    Probably just my luck then since neither of my original confirmation numbers that Orbitz sent me would link to my MDE account. Orbitz contacted Disney for me and gave me the correct number (which was completely different than the first set that I was given). I booked only 2 weeks prior to...

    AKL or POFQ -- Deluxe vs Convenience?

    During our last 2 trips we have stayed at AKL and LOVED it! It's so beautiful and I like that it's so quiet. Fantastic pool as well. Both trips we ended up spending a lot of time at the resort so it was well worth the money for us to stay Deluxe. It is kind of out of the way to almost everything...

    Booking ASMu through Orbitz

    I just used Orbitz for the first time for a VERY last minute Disney trip. I used the code SAYYAY and received an additional 15% off the room so the Orbitz rate was way cheaper than any I found on the Disney site. One downfall is that you do have to pay for the entire trip at once, not just a...
