    Have you even gone to WDW with a child exactly 40in?

    In response to #3. We go in August and DS5 is right at 40 inches. However in the mornings he will measure about a quarter inch over without shoes. Then later in the day he will be about 39 3/4 inches. So he changes by 1/2 an inch. With normal shoes he is over 40 inches, but we know that...

    FP+ is Live! Magic Bands in the park!

    Just and FYI - our son had one of those battery charge cases. I think it was from InCase . It caused the battery to overheat, which rendered the phone dead, luckily we were under warranty and will get a new one. I would research them before buying.

    Bounceback question

    Where do you find the bounceback offer. The two times I have been there i have not seen it in the room or anywhere. Went once in April, once in August. Do we have to ask the front desk? Thanks!

    Free dining in august??

    Yes you can upgrade, I believe you pay the difference. I think it is usually quick service for values and sometimes moderates, then the table service dining plan with 1TS, 1QS, and 1 snack for the rest, maybe wrong. When I went in 2010 we stayed at POR and I remember having to upgrade from QS...

    Late Check-in at POR with preferred room

    Thank you all for the response. So it seems that bumping is possible but not likely. However we do have 5 people, DW, DS14,DS7,DS5, and myself so I hope we will be in the rooms with the pullout bed. Also only booked preferred because we did it through AAA. Price wound up being lower than...
