    Big Thunder Mountain opening

    Sorry if this has been asked a million times. I'm heading back to WDW May 25 and will be heading to the MK on the 27th. Does anyone know if Thunder is expected to open ON the 27th or is it closed THROUGH the 27th? Thanks in advance!

    Just took a survey on Disney Visa - Annual Fee

    I can't imagine Chase will actually start charging a fee on the card. If anything, they might stop offering their 5X promotions. Honestly, that would impact me more than an annual fee. I've been fortunate enough this year to have received 9 straight months of the promotion and have accumulated...

    Kona Cafe

    It's a comfortable restaurant with good food. I'm not sure if it's worth going out of your way for, though. If you're staying there, definitely go. Plus, if you're interested in the Tonga Toast served there, just go to the CS restaurant downstairs instead. It's essentially the same thing for...

    San Angel

    I don't think it's generally one of the busier restaurants at Epcot. I didn't have a problem getting the time I wanted just a few weeks in advance. If you're going on Christmas, however, you may have a problem. And thanks all for your suggestions. Looks like I'll be getting the Pollo a Las...

    San Angel

    Heading up to Epcot this weekend and will be dining at San Angel Inn for dinner. Going more for the ambiance than the food, but am hoping for recommendations on what to eat. I'm not picky and just want a good meal. popcorn::

    Fireworks from Monorail hotels

    Thanks so much! I've been to Disney more than 30 times, but haven't seen fireworks from outside the park in years! I'll likely watch from the beach at the Poly (maybe they'll have smores roasting outside). I fear the observation deck at the Contemporary will be a tad too crowded.

    Fireworks from Monorail hotels

    I'll be arriving to The World Saturday evening and want to grab a bite to eat at one of the Monorail hotels. I see Wishes has a start time at 10 p.m. and wanted to catch it from one of those three hotels. Which one is best for viewing the fireworks?

    Disney Visa - any down side?

    I'd definitely recommend this card. I took it out initially for the 0 percent promotion on balance transfers and continue to use it as my main credit card. While interest rates have gone up recently (5.99% to 12.99%), it hardly matters if you pay it off in full each month as I do. There are...

    Latest Disney Visa Offer: Are they kidding?

    I'm a heavy user of my Disney Visa and every purchase I make goes onto the card. I pay it off in full every month and never carry a balance. I just received a 5X promotion in the mail with a $250 hurdle for July, August and September. This comes on the heels of a 5X promotion with a $500 hurdle...

    Kona Cafe

    I have reservations there for Sunday night! So they definitely do take them. And I'd recommend making reservations, especially with free dining being offered.

    Can't do ADRs or dining plan

    Also, though this may draw some fire, make reservations. If you can't keep them or don't want them, just cancel.

    Can't do ADRs or dining plan

    Eat at off times, eat at less frequented restaurants, prepare for the real possibility of many counter service meals...and hope for the best!

    Pinocchio Village Haus

    Thanks, Tricia! It's a good place to go with a vegetarian who adores pizza! So I'll likely be making my way back there again!

    Pinocchio Village Haus

    Heading to Disney tomorrow (YAY!) and was just looking over the menus for several restaurants. Does anyone know if Pinocchio Village Haus at MK still has a steak and cheese sub? I had one while dining there in November, but a menu online doesn't show it. Now, it wasn't the best thing I've ever...

    Which resort has the best breakfast?

    Boatwrights at POR. The french toast is the best I've eaten. Still dying to try Tonga Toast at Kona though!

    For 2 people: Dining Plan? Or Skip Dining Plan??

    It all depends. If you're looking to do mostly counter service meals, then no. If you want a sit down meal every day, then likely yes. I'll be using the dining plan for the first time next weekend. Already figured that if I hadn't purchased the plan, I'd be paying more than $50 a day out of...

    KONA... I've heard raves...What's so GOOD @ it??

    I've got reservations at Kona next weekend and have no idea what to try! I'm dining at Chef's de France the night before and have decided to get filet at one place and fish at another. But I'm not sure where I should get which. Suggestions would be much appreciated.

    Is Boatwrights good ?

    I've never been there for dinner, but I now have a tradition of going there for breakfast every trip regardless of whether not we stay at POR. The French Toast, imho, is unbeatable.

    In My 40Plus years of Visititng Disney theme parks, this is a First

    I agree. It's always neat to see the lights on in Space Mountain. Seems like it happens often.
