    One Day Only!

    I know I'm asking a very broad question here...but here goes... We have one day in DL, on Wednesday, January 21st. I'm very familiar with WDW as we've been there many times, but I have zero knowledge of DL. I'm wondering what the best plan of attack might be? We would be there at rope...

    Splash Mountain on January 5

    that's exactly how I feel! I had already told my family that it was going to be down for our whole trip, so they will be pleasantly surprised! It's been down on both of our last 2 visits, so it's been a LONG time since we've ridden it. Also looking forward to seeing the light!3

    Splash Mountain on January 5

    I just went onto MDE to move some FP+ around for this Sunday, and it allowed me to choose Splash Mountain. When I set FP+ up initially, it would not allow me to select Splash Mountain due to scheduled refurb. Will I be disappointed when I get there, or is it possible it may actually be...

    ***NEW MyMagic & FastPass+ Official Information & FAQ Thread***

    hoping someone can help me.... We will be visiting in early January. MDE is all set up and our reservation and ADR's are all linked. From my discussion with guest services on the phone, they anticipate everything will be out of testing phase and running for real by then. So I'm trying to...

    Magic Bands and FP+ for January trip

    We are going for a week in January, and I have MDE set up with everyone, and our reservation and ADR's are all showing up. Perfect so far! My question is - do I need to purchase park tickets and link them to MDE, before I'm offered the opportunity to personalize the wrist bands? I would...

    January 2014 discount watch!!

    darn it...we have a 2-bedroom villa at BW reserved, and our room type is not eligible for any type of discount. Still cheaper paying rack for a 2-bedroom than 3 rooms discounted, so we will keep the reservation. Kinda bummed tho. While on the phone, he noticed that we were showing 8 adults...

    Magical Express questions

    Don't rule out the possibility of a good on-site deal for a rental car. Last time we visited, we decided to use DME and rent from the Dolphin. The prices were a little higher on-site all along, but we were ok with that. Two days before we left home, I got a great deal at the Dolphin - I...

    January 2014 discount watch!!

    I was wondering about the whole ticket thing if a reservation has to be split in 2. Are you allowed to use your park tickets (purchased with a s/p/d package) before your package officially begins? I don't know why, but I thought that wasn't allowed. Did the rules change?

    January 2014 discount watch!!

    I could be wrong, but I think this is where it gets tricky. You'd have to buy a ticket to cover the first half; then another set of tickets to be eligible for a s/p/d discount for the second half. And seeing as how Day one on a ticket is the major expense, would you save much at all?

    January 2014 discount watch!!

    being the OCD type, I did a spreadsheet and figured it all out, every possible way. We are staying at BWV, 5 adults, one toddler. Free dining would save us the most; a 35% room only discount comes in a very close second and would likely save us more because if we pay for food as we go, I...

    Question about FP+, magic bands, and purchasing park tickets

    so if I add tickets to my existing reservation, would that make me ineligible for room-only discounts?

    Question about FP+, magic bands, and purchasing park tickets

    Honestly, with the thousands of threads about FP+ and magic bands, I feel like I should know the answer to this questions already. But I don't...so... I have a room-only reservation at BWV for early January. Assuming that the magic bands and FP+ are rolled out for everyone by then, or at...

    2014 Roll Call

    We are headed to the BWV on January 4th to 11th. Me, DH and 2 DS's have been many times, but this will be the first visit for my DIL and DGD (who will be 26 months). We started visiting WDW when our boys were 9 and 11. They were already far "too cool" for some of the rides/attractions...

    Aeroplan - Same disney tickets as anywhere else?

    I was planning to do this too, as we could not get a single seat on a flight (let alone 6), and that was starting to plan at 11 months out! They have made flying on a reward ticket out of Winnipeg almost impossible. Oh, I lie - there was an option that we could all fly - leaving Winnipeg at 6...

    So what did your flight cost?-

    We have already booked our flights from Winnipeg on United, connecting through Chicago which is a PITA, but total was $3050 for 6 of us. Just checked Westjet's direct flight - $5045!! seriously, what is up with their prices?!

    Did you prebook AC seats?

    I agree....pre-book if you want to be sure of having 2x2. Having said that, I would wager a bet that most adults would be quite willing to switch their seat if it meant avoiding having to sit beside an unattended child. Especially if that child is 3 or 4 years old!! But ya never know, I...

    So what did your flight cost?-

    vent away! I though the new Rouge line with AC was supposed to be "cheap". Instead, they seemed to have just jacked up the prices of every flight.

    So what did your flight cost?-

    Winnipeg to MCO on United in January, with a stopover in Chicago - $510 each, everything in. Great price for us! Wanted Westjet to drop their prices on the only direct flight, but nothing so far. $740 PLUS the add-on fees was just too much.

    News about Magical Express, downtown Disney to airport on last day

    Or....I can easily see that luggage NOT making it to the bus from the resort. So you are all the way home and you don't know if your luggage is lost in WDW, MCO or your home airport. What a nightmare!
