    TSM standby-less test Oct. 6-9

    I know this is supposedly just a test, and they wouldn't be changing the MDE app for this, but it really stinks but if you go into MDE and try to get a fast pass for TSM it says "none available standby only". So if you have no idea about this test and you do what you're supposed to, which is...

    At the park now, FP+ lines are snaking through the park

    I was surprised to see long FP return lines for BTMRR and Buzz, but they moved really quickly. On BTMRR it took us 5 minutes from entering the FP line to boarding, while the SB line was 40 minutes.

    The new MK Princess Parade

    My DD just turned 9 and is slowly outgrowing the whole princess thing. I think Disney is really limiting itself by focusing so much on the princess franchise to the exclusion of everything else. Sure have the Prince$$e$ but don't forget where you came from - include the classics to make sure you...

    Why can't I book online?

    I haven't been on the member site in a while, and I no longer have the ability to search and book online? What happened? I don't want to call MS just to check availability? Is it because I haven't paid my dues yet?

    And it just rolls on...

    Exactly. My DD hasn't yet worked her way up to Space Mountain, and we had already been on BTMR twice (1 FP and one standby). She wanted to ride TS but there is no way I was going to wait in line 30 minutes for TS, and we already had a FP+ for Buzz... We are AP and DVC members, so there's not...

    And it just rolls on...

    We had an issue where I switched out a FP for Haunted Mansion for Tomorrowland Speedway - I switched it while we were in the standby line for Haunted Mansion. The MDE app gave me a confirmation but there must have been a delay in the system because our Mickey heads turned blue when we got into...

    Just back. Magic Bands, FP+ and more.

    I am going to add my experience to you post instead of starting yet another MB/FP+ thread. We are at Bay Lake Towers, checking out today. We had a good experience with MB/FP+. Here are some observations: - My parents met up with us after we arrived, and I was able to link their bands to ours...

    The Chase Lounge @ The American Adventure

    We didn't try because we knew we weren't staying in the park for that long.

    The Chase Lounge @ The American Adventure

    We waited about 10 minutes ( it was around 3pm on a Saturday). I think it was worth it just to have a place to sit and some a/c!

    Fireworks from BLT?

    We are at BLT on points right now. We got up to the lounge around 15 minutes before the fireworks and there were plenty if spots at the rail. We watched from further back because my 8 y/o couldn't see and still had a fantastic view!

    Food and Wine is busy..

    We were at F&W today. I actually think it is less crowded than in years past. We got to Epcot right at 9am and left around 6:00. The crowds in World Showcase were heavy but not ridiculous. We could actually walk without feeling claustrophobic.

    OK - Who's already got a VGF reservation?

    Booked a std studio for my DD's 9th birthday (Feb 7-9). :banana::banana: Got online yesterday morning right at 8am and booked without a problem!

    Quick Banking question

    Thank you!

    Quick Banking question

    Good morning! I have 297 points in my Feb 2013 use year. I am planning a DVC trip for February 2014. I am assuming that I need to bank these points into the 2014 use year, then I can book for my Febuary trip, right? I have to bank, then book, right?

    Guest Test of Magic Bands (Official Notice)

    Don't know that this is true in all cases... I added our APs to the MDE app last week when we were on site. I'm pretty sure I added them prior to our last park visit which was Friday night, and we had no trouble getting into Epcot.

    FP+ Details Are Out!

    I'm wondering also about the logistics of the Magic Bands. We are DVC members and AP holders. Will we get a single MB to cover both? Since we go multiple times, I'm assuming that the same MB will be re-used, right? I can't see getting new MBs for every trip we take... I can't wait to see how...

    Mousekeeping.....Is it just me?

    Same here! We are at OKW now (last day of our 7day stay) and did not have any mouse keeping. No big deal though. I eased towels and cleaned up things. It is just like home!

    Here now and OMG ITS CROWDED!

    We have travelled to WDW the 3rd week in June 4 out of the past 5 years. We are halfway thru our trip and I agree that it is more crowded this year than in years past. Not out of control crowded, but I was surprised at how many people there were waiting for rope drop at 8:15 at MK today (we had...

    Talk me into a Studio

    Our family of 3 stays in a 1 bedroom when we stay for more than 4 days. Often DD and I travel alone and stay in a studio, but when DH is with us I feel the studio is too cramped. I like the "trip" vs. "vacation" concept!

    Buying DVC for the love of Disney vacationing?

    That is exactly why we bought DVC. We had stayed at OKW on cash and loved the resort and the amount of space in a one bedroom. We love WDW and like going multiple times a year. We always stay on site (even thought we are <90 minutes away). I live being able to have some meals in the room and...
