    Last Minute Questions - Fastpass Plus, RFID, DVC Annual Pass

    Good morning all. We've got a 10 day WDW trip coming up, and this is the least prepared we've EVER been (as far as scanning the boards for things we need to know, etc..). I'm just getting up to speed on fastpass plus, etc. Our original plan was (1) wife and I were going to purchase annual...

    A (Probably Dumb) Waitlist Question

    Thanks for the feedback. I deactivated the SSR waitlist and added a new one for Saturday only. (For future reference, should I have called MS and had them do it? If MS does it, would they be changing the existing waitlist so I would keep my place in the que?) I'm new at wait listing, so I think...

    WDW in late January?

    Hi all, we had a trip planned for next week in WDW and had to cancel due to a death in the family. Our use year ends January 31st, so we just booked the last week in January 2013 (at SSR and VWL), so that we use our points up by February 1st. We've never gone to WDW in the middle of winter...

    DVC Bashing

    Not to discount the costs but...when we decided to buy DVC, and i knew that we could afford the monthly payments, it simply came down to (1) i own my own business in the northeast and often work 6 days a week, and sometimes 7 (2) WDW is one of the places in our life where we can go to a warm...

    AKV Savannah or BLT Lake View

    I would also have voted for the Lake View at BLT (even though we have stayed at Kidani Savanna view and loved it). Depending on what view you might want to request, here are some pictures of one of our BLT stays.... http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2312558

    Favorite DVC resort?

    Now that we have grandkids, i have 2 sets of faves: 1. if the grandkiddies are with us, BLT (where we own) because (a) easy walk to MK (b) easy walk or monorail ride back to BLT (c) the kids LOVE the monorail (as do I!) and also VWL (where i wish i owned) 2. If we are solo, then VWL is our...

    BYOB or Food/Top of the World Terrace (edited from lounge)

    On our trip to BLT last fall, a group came in to TOTW (i don't recall the exact numbers, but i would guess 4 adults, 4 kids, something like that). They had several bags of take out food (looked like KFC). I was pretty surprised, and no one who worked there said anything (from what we could tell).

    What with SSR Grandstand pool not working?

    Not directly related to the OP but...we were in WDW a few weeks ago, stayed at VWL and OKW. I was in the hot tub at VWL one morning, and a repair man kept trying to fix one of the input streams, and he was having trouble. He told me he could not get the part he needed...I asked him if that...

    BLT - Pool ?

    Just a quick comment about BLT pool...we were in WDW a few weeks ago, staying at VWL and OKW (BLT is our home resort, but we've been staying all over the place, trying to get a feel for the different resorts). We pool hopped to the Contemporary one day, and it felt nice and spacious, not too...

    SSR - Carousel Ghost Town?

    We were down in WDW a few weeks ago, and several times we drove through the Paddock and Carousel parking lots while in SSR. Granted it was during the day time, and people may have been at the parks, etc....but I would say 4 times i did not see a single car in the Carousel lot. I was curious...

    Cleaning question

    I also do not understand turning off the fridge. We stayed 4 days last week in a studio at OKW, and this actually caused a problem for us. My wife is on a yearlong cancer treatment that requires her medicine to be kept refrigerated. When we checked in, the fridge was off and flooded at the...
