    Does online check-in override previous requests made?

    I have read in the past that if you elect to do the online registration process, your previously made requests are no longer valid. Does anyone know if this is true? I know that the online registration process gives guests an opportunity to list some preferences, but not all possibilities are...

    Would you let your 15 and 13 year old...

    travel from your resort on a Disney bus and explore a park for a period of time without you? We know families who allow their children to do this and have had positive experiences. It has been quite some time since we've been to Disney, so we haven't been in this position before. We have...

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    I just read that CBR was "the lowest rated Disney resort" in the Unofficial Guide to WDW's 2017 reader survey. This makes me anxious as we have reservations for this April. We've stayed at other Disney resorts (values, moderates, and Deluxe), but never CBR. I'm especially surprised because I...

    Confusion over taxi from POR to HDDR.. Please help clarify

    I am hoping that some experienced Dissers can help me. I have tried searching for an answer to my question in older posts, but have read conflicting answers. I am wondering if it would be best to take a taxi from POR to HDDR rather than taking the bus to MK and then a boat to Pioneer Hall...

    Have u ever pulled your kids out of school more than allowed ?

    I would not hesitate to allow my children to miss school for a family vacation. After a bout with cancer (thankfully gone!) and losing my brother-in-law (who has a daughter the same age as my son), I cherish the time we spend as a family. I am blessed that my sons are excellent students...

    Tell me about Tutto Italia..

    I had dinner there last week and enjoyed it. I was seated outside and loved "people watching" as I dined. I had the penne caprese which was delicious. The fresh mozzarella was YUMMY! I also had the dessert sampler which had small portions of three desserts. I didn't have much of the dessert...

    Where to eat solo?

    I just returned last week from a wonderful solo trip. It was my first trip touring and dining alone. (A completely different experience than with my three little ones!) I ate at Mama Melrose, Tutto Italia, Chefs de France, Kona's, and Wolfgang Puck's. I enjoyed all of my meals. I especially...

    Suggestions for first time solo trip

    My husband surprised me with a solo trip to WDW for Mother's day. :) I am leaving on Saturday. I was wondering if any veteran solo travelers had any advice for someone travelling solo for the first time to the World. Any things that you wish you had done, are happy you did do, or things you...

    Are soft drinks included in breakfast buffets?

    Can someone please tell me if soft drinks are included in the cost of buffets. I'll be on the dining plan and would like to order a diet coke at Boma for breakfast. (I don't drink coffee, but I love my diet soda fix in the morning!) I'm trying to determine what meal I should pay oop. Many thanks...

    Captain's Grille @ YC????

    I'm thinking about trying Captain's Grille on my upcoming trip. Long ago, I recall reading that it was a "hidden gem" of the Epcot area. Would you agree? I thought I could walk over to the YC after a day at Epcot. I'm from Maryland and love crab cakes. I would likely order them. Has anyone...

    Time from POR to Hoop De Doo??

    I'm hoping someone can give me an idea of how much time I should allow to get from POR to the Hoop De Doo show. I believe the quickest route would be to take a bus to MK and then a ferry to FW. I have no idea how long this would take, any ideas? I'm concerned because we just made flight...

    FAQ - 2010 DDP, DxDP and QSDP Everything you always wanted to know

    I have a friend who recently returned from Disney and participated in the dining plan. She said that the QS meals were not divided between adults and children on her receipts. She had to keep track of how many adult and how many children credits she had left herself. She said that a CM said...

    Honey Chicken at Yak and Yeti?

    Is this the same honey chicken that is on the dinner menu? I'm assuming it is, but just wanted to be sure. It looks yummy. I thought I remember reading a while back, when Yak and Yeti first opened, that the honey chicken was not very good. I was disappointed to hear that, because the...

    Is Hoop de Doo really worth 2 TS credits?

    I have read many reviews of the Hoop De Doo dinner show. Most of the reviews are very positive. However, when I watched a small segment of the show on Youtube it didn't seem very entertaining. ( I hate admitting this, as I usually love all things Disney!) I have three little ones I would be...
