    We bought from Amazon a card from Gig Sky. This allows you to use it in multiple places around the world, and then activate a plan when you need it. This is data only, no voice - but who actually 'calls' on their phone anymore? We use iphones that are older, but apparently it is even easier on...

    Canadian here that just returned. We were on AT&T and had no issues getting a BG each of the 3 days that we tried. Good luck.

    We rode around 6pm for BG 78 (we didn’t go there right when we were called). It was a quick process, in and out in 20-30 minutes, I didn’t time it exactly. Somethings are not running the ‘main’ way, but are running in their ‘backup’ way. Still a great ride and the ‘changes’ don’t take away...

    Ugh, the lines to get in today were crazy. They handled them pretty efficiently, although the CM that dropped my daughters ticket while scanning it at 7:59 stressed me out. Then she asked us why everyone was cheering and yelling. I wanted to I ask her which rock she lived under. 😂

    I got BG 39 this morning while on the path to MFSR, about half way between Big Thunder and GE. Using an iPhone 6 on AT&T. We got in line at 12:50, started the ‘experience’ at 1:08.

    Has there been any news on when Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will be operating again?

    It went down last week and any time I’ve looked in the app it tells me temporarily closed. Apparently I just have magical timing to when it is down for a short while 🙄. I see fast passes are available right now. Thanks everyone. 😃

    My family and I love BTMRR. Any chance it will be operating next week? TIA

    No idea, but it does explain why main BG's went so quickly on a slower morning.

    Interesting. At least they are asking for feedback, even if the options are somewhat limited. At this point they really are in a tough spot. No one solution will please everyone.

    Do they do pics everyday for every kind of ticket? I can’t see that info on the DL website anywhere and I want to be prepared with the proper documents etc when we go in a week. Thank you We will have 4 day park hoopers for Canadian residents.

    Do we know if that was the highest backup BG handed out?

    It seems like they held back some of the backup BG's today (?) since the Join Boarding Group option did go away for many of us for 1-2 minutes and then came back (and they are still available now). Everyday it is a little different as they tweak things.

    That's a really good point. I know I would feel better knowing I had a 'chance' with a backup group, versus no chance at all. I'll be there in 2 weeks so I'm hoping these slower weekdays continue to provide backup BG's for longer, and hoepfully even spread the main BG's over a few more minutes.

    Now boarding groups 37-60! That's a large range of groups at one time. Things must be running well.

    I agree. Sometimes you just can't imagine the things that users (riders) will do that can cause problems to your system (ride). You can only test for what your imagination allows, but people come up with unique and different ways to do (break) things every time. Enjoy the ride when you do get...

    Check out Gigsky. You can buy the cards on Amazon and the rates are good. The cards can be used all over the world, so you can reuse them. That is what we will use, we are coming from Canada too.

    Wonder Mini Review 2/13 Sailing

    We were also on this cruise and it was our first cruise - Disney or otherwise - I am also hooked. Things were fantastic! The only complaint I have is the short days in Cabo San Lucas - but that is out of Disney's control for the most part I believe. The tendering process worked quickly and...
