    Genie+ $29 per day but most major rides filled so beware

    Yep, this is what it was for us today. And we paid $10 for individual lightening lane. FWIW, we’ve found Genie+ to be pretty helpful. We’ve been in the parks since 1/2 and have had zero issues booking the rides we wanted. For example, we combined Genie+ with rope drop at MK Thursday, 1/5, and...

    Nutritional info easily available?

    Thanks for this! That’s the conclusion we’ve come to as well. He’s going to just watch what he eats and try to plan strategically - I printed up menus for the restaurants where we plan to dine so that he can figure things out as best he can. For exercise, he’s going to do tons of pushups to keep...

    Ugh - that’s so disappointing. I remember Disney being so accommodating if anyone needed to alter their choices at table service restaurants. You’d think they would make this easy, too?

    Nutritional info easily available?

    Hey all! We’ll be traveling to WDW 1/2-1/9. DS19 is bodybuilding and, as such, pretty closely monitors his nutritional intake. He has a pretty good sense of what foods to eat and what to avoid, but it would be great to find something that gave him at least calorie counts. Is this available...

    Using Uber/Lyft instead of renting a car?

    Is this new? I’m pretty sure I remember having to pay to park at the parks, except when we were AP members for a few years, and we’ve always stayed onsite. Edited: nevermind! Just Googled it and you’re right - either I’m not remembering correctly or they’ve changed it. It’ll be $20/night for...

    Using Uber/Lyft instead of renting a car?

    Hey all! 😊 I’m going back and forth between renting a car and using Uber or Lyft for our upcoming trip (POR 1/2-1/9). I have a decent deal for a premium sedan at $418, but of course, will need to pay daily parking at the parks as well. When I plug in sample dates to/from MCO, and to/from the...

    December 2022 Rental Car

    I just used this code for the first week of January - holy cow! It beat Costco by $230, couldn’t believe it. Little nervous about the Cardinal rate, but I had to try. Thank you so much!!

    Disney's PORT ORLEANS RIVERSIDE RESORT Information & Questions

    Trying to pick our room request for our POR stay coming up in January. We’ll be in a Woods 5th sleeper - didn’t choose preferred view because it looked like these didn’t have the murphy? Either way, looks like we’re locked in at this point because availability for preferred isn’t showing...

    To park hop or not? First week of January with a bunch of variables…

    We’re going to try to do mostly QS, tbh, mostly to save money. I don’t think I’ll need a scooter, but we’ll see after the first day or two. I used to book at least one or two ADRs per day just for the break, but it’s just not feasible this trip with how expensive everything has gotten.

    To park hop or not? First week of January with a bunch of variables…

    This sounds like an awesome plan. Our down days were going to be Disney Springs on 1/2 (maybe mini golf?), half days on a few days, and a leisurely morning on 1/9. I may have to rethink, though - I really like the sound of this.

    To park hop or not? First week of January with a bunch of variables…

    Thanks for this. I do understand that Disney won't sell the PH option if all parks are full. To be honest, if we'd already purchased PH and were actually still able to hop even though a park was crazy busy, I don't think I'd want to go anyway! The kids may want to brave it, I guess, but not sure...

    To park hop or not? First week of January with a bunch of variables…

    Yep - wish we could go during a different time, but this was the only option for a number of reasons. Question - my understanding is that, as long as one of the other parks has availability, we’ll be able to hop. Do you think all parks could be full during that week? If so, it’s probably be...

    To park hop or not? First week of January with a bunch of variables…

    Help me decide, WDW aficionados…. We’ll be traveling to WDW 1/2-1/9, staying onsite at POR. Players will be… - Me (Disney geek with 16 trips under her belt but none in the last 3 years, have always been the organizer/rally the troops person, and just kicked breast cancer’s butt but still...

    Tips for doing Disney with breast cancer

    Hey all! Not sure if this exactly fits here, but wasn’t sure where else to post. I’ve traveled to WDW many many times, but this will be my first trip post breast cancer. After 12 rounds of chemo, surgery and six weeks of radiation, I’m comfortable saying that we’ve beaten back the beast. ❤️...

    CLOSED: Anyone planning a 2023 trip? 179 Copper Creek - renting for $18.50 per point

    Looking for a stay from 1/2 through 1/9 - are you seeing availability? Would prefer Poly studio as we’ll need three beds (two teenagers along with my husband and me).

    Everything Park Reservations - Please Read Post 1

    After 14 trips to WDW, we’re heading back for the first time in 5 years and I cannot believe how much has changed! We’ll be staying at POR from Jan 2-8, and it will be my husband and me with our 19 and 17 year old kids - probably the last time we’ll be able to all go together. ❤️ Catching up on...

    Where does Uber drop off at Disney Springs?

    Staying offsite, and getting different answers regarding where Uber can drop us off. We’re having dinner at Terralina in Disney Springs, so we’d prefer to be dropped off at the Rideshare area near the bridge to the Disney Springs resort are hotels. However, our concierge told us that Uber can...
