    AK PPO Tusker House - park entry

    Greetings, We have a group of us with an ADR at Tusker House next week, 8:00am. (9:00am open) I have read that we can get into AK about 7:30am via the left side entry points. Is this true? Also, there are 12 of us on one reservation under my name. If I check in with my Magic Band then is someone...

    FastPass+ FAQ — SERVICE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

    Thank you for your quick reply. Is this true even if they check in the day after me? My 60 day window is at 61 days for my linked friends.

    FastPass+ FAQ — SERVICE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

    Very good thread. I have a question that I could not find an answer to after multiple searches. When my 60 day window arrives can I include connected friends and family that check in the day after me in my fastpass+ reservations ? (technically it will be 61 days for them at my 60 day window).

    How good is Boma dinner?

    IMO you will like it, but I am biased because I like it. It is one of the most interesting and flavorful buffets at WDW. As with any restaurant some people will like it and some will not. For those that don't I often hear the complaints of sweet and cinnamon flavors. Well that is true on a few...

    You go to the Gold counter. Shouldn't take more than a few minutes if the Gold counter line is short.

    Hertz Gold Club

    If this is your first rental as a Hertz Gold member then you will have to stop at the counter and sign the contract. You can not go directly to the car. After the first rental then you can go directly to the car.

    TTC Parking - Arrive at 8:00pm

    Does anyone have recent experience arriving at the TTC to park at 8:00pm on a day when MK closes at 11:00pm? Will I be able to park in the front sections where cars have left for the day? Any tips on how to get to the front parking areas upon arrival at the TTC?

    Boma

    TheRustyScuppers review is one opinion. While I agree that some main dishes lean towards a sweet taste there are plenty that don't. If you don't like exotic flavors then maybe it is not for you. You should stick with bland tasting food. Otherwise Boma is one of the best buffets at WDW with food...

    Travel Agent vs. DIY

    Wow, Sue M, you judge all TA's by your experience with one bad TA? I use a friend TA who is a true Disney expert and they know their stuff. My TA is very useful and I have seen some thank you notes from some of her clients. I am sorry to hear you didn't find the right Disney expert. It is...

    Travel Agent vs. DIY

    If you do book with a TA then use one that specializes in Disney. I have never had any issues with TA's that specialize in Disney. And I have never been charged any fees so I don't know why some people are talking about fees. A Disney specialist can get you the lowest costs at the time of...

    Free Dining Question, would love all opinions please:)

    Past performance does not guarantee future results. I am afraid this will be true with Free Dining in 2013. I wouldn't expect any more Free Dining offers this year based on what Disney has done so far this year. More people are traveling to WDW and the need to offer Free Dining diminishes. If...

    Just curious - Disney Dining Plan

    It depends on how you eat, so your experiences will vary. If you eat what I consider normal-sized meals, and perhaps only 1 or 2 main meals a day with snacking in between then the DDP is not worth it, even when it is "free" with the higher room cost. If you eat a lot of food and 2+ meals per day...

    Using a Travel Agent or Doing it yourself??

    If you receive a quote from a TA that is more cost than from Disney then look for another TA! The cost should not be different. As a matter of fact some TA's can have lower prices if they have set up group space for specific dates. Most type A personality planners like to do it themselves...

    ****August, 2012!!!****

    ~~~FREE DINING offer beginning Mar. 5th, travel dates Aug. 25-Sept. 29!

    wow, that would be an incredible savings, if possible. However my experience has never found that much savings with "free" dining. But again it comes down to how much one family eats and what they eat vs. another family. Every family has to make that determination before deciding if there really...

    ~~~FREE DINING offer beginning Mar. 5th, travel dates Aug. 25-Sept. 29!

    DisDaze, I understand what you are saying. It really comes down to each family and their eating styles. I have never been able to price out a "free" dining as a significant (if any) savings compared to a good room discount, even at a value or mod. Also we spend more time in the parks, resort...

    ~~~FREE DINING offer beginning Mar. 5th, travel dates Aug. 25-Sept. 29!

    lillylynnb, Depends on your eating "style". You can actually save $$$ with your 30% room discount(compared to "free dining"). If you don't typically go to multiple table service restaurants every day of your stay, and mix in more counter service, and also mix in simple meals like bringing your...

    ~~~FREE DINING offer beginning Mar. 5th, travel dates Aug. 25-Sept. 29!

    WallaWallakids, you hit it with your observation. Room prices are not discounted when you have the so-called "free dining". I have found room discounts to be a better deal than "free" dining. I admire the marketing genious of Disney because "free" dining always gets people into a frenzy for no...
