    First trip in December - booked specifically to soak up the holiday spirit ... It's a long weekend before we let our APs expire. My focus is probably MK and Epcot. We are staying at GF.

    Which restaurants (TS or CS) have the best Christmas Atmosphere?

    We're going to Disney in early December - it's my first time in tons of trips that we'll get to see Disney in it's holiday finest. As a matter of fact, this is the exact reason we added this 4-day trip. This will be our 5th trip for 2017 - Jan, June, Sept, Oct and Dec (this AP is both a...

    Christmas season resort - can't decide and rooms are disappearing

    We decided to add a long weekend trip in the beginning of December since I've always wanted to see Disney decorated for the Christmas holiday - and we have an AP that expires soon after and we will probably not renew for next year. I've been trying to wait for discounts, but rooms just keep...

    June hours for MK extended - go get that 7DMT FP for the new hour

    June closing hours for MK were extended to 10:00 pm. I just found out because I had a fastpass scheduled for 8:30 to 9:00 (original closing time, so only 30 minute slot). Disney sent an ominous ALERT email saying they changed one of my fastpasses. After the initial fear - when I saw that the...

    My Southwest airfare went down 25% today (4/14)

    Might be time to check your airfares I had flights booked a couple of weeks ago for the beginning of June to MCO, each leg went down 25% saving me $70 RT on each ticket. I haven't seen fares close to $100 for my non-stop flights in a very long time. As far as I know, this was an unannounced...

    Epcot Evening EMH and Frozen Ever After?

    The last time I was at Epcot for evening EMH was right before FEA opened. I pretty much know what to expect with Test Track and Soarin'. On that last summer trip we were able to do Test Track a couple of times and Soarin' and some other smaller attractions. But, what about Frozen? What kind...

    Undercover Tourist E-tickets?

    Has anyone had recent experience in buying e-tickets from UCT? How long did it take for delivery so that you have your confirmation numbers to add to MDE? It says in the faqs that it can take up to 3 days? I of course need to start making my fp+ for my stay starting 6/5 - forever...

    My experience with 10:30 am breakfast at Tusker House yesterday

    Since this topic has come up many times (myself included) - I thought I would tell about my experience at Tusker House breakfast yesterday morning. We had a 10:30 ADR and it was booked knowing that Tusker House begins lunch at 11:00, and we would be there to experience the turnover allowing us...

    Let the cancellation of MK pre-opening breakfast ADRs for 8/15 commence ...

    It appears that Disney in the last 2 days (because I try to look every day), and without any fanfare, changed the park opening from 9:00 am to 8:00 am. I thought I was safe because MK had night time EMH on the 15th, and Disney rarely has an 8:00am opening on an a Saturday with EMH - I looked at...
