I'm really not an expert on this so please be gentle with any corrections, but my understanding (and is what happened to me for 2019 WBPC) is that as long as you booked a cruise, you are locked into the pricing as of that day. The reason I earlier called out that everything opened up is to give...

For the 2019 WBPC I feel pretty much this same situation occurred as these Hawaii cruises - where Platinums used up many of the categories and the GTY cruises showed up even before the public opening date. The Disney rep we talked to indicated that people were holding many cruises and, like...

Wonder, May 8, 2020 Hawaii to Vancouver G Cat 5B 2A $7488.54 [3580:3580] (328.54 tax) no ins/air/trans or OBB FYI, online booking (I didn't realize that was even possible until I guessed the previous Gold postings must have been online). Via the online booking portal, for verandas, it seemed...

I'm with most of the others. Downtown Disney does have things to see/do so if you've never been there, you should go. But I'll also second (or third?) the notion that there's lots of restaurants to try at all the other resorts. Ohana's is certainly a great choice if you time it with the...

Can you try for a little earlier? 4-5? I was able to get things I wanted that way last trip. Then I have room for a little snack during fireworks. :goodvibes

Morning EMH are the best!! You can get so much done before the crowds pick up. Also, don't forget to pick up fast passes as soon as they become available. Between morning EMH and picking up early fast passes, I almost always get everything done I want to do in a single day. Evening EMH are...

Hey Tammy, We're new to cruising too. There is lots to learn but you've got lots of time. Reading this thread regularly has me (mostly) up to speed. lol You didn't mention preference for where you want the cruise to take you? Short Bahamas? Longer Caribbean? Europe? We're scheduled for...

You said best price/way to do it. In my mind, those are typically opposites. But, not a bad compromise would be a Disney Value resort, but with 4 people in the room, it might be tough. Is 4 days their total trip? Getting to the other parks isn't tough. Cabs for me both trips were in the...

I plan on doing the drive in a few more years. Just too busy these days. But I cannot wait. My drive will be 2780 miles (that's almost the same as your distance. lol). I would expect to take a week to do it. Bing reports 48 hours to do the drive, but I don't think it's calculating the ferry...

Millys' explanation is pretty good and I agree that's why you're seeing not full glasses. But I'm not a believer that the restaurant is losing very much by topping up. I managed a McDonald's and the cost of the syrup that makes the drink is probably the smallest cost. 1-2 cents per glass...

I'd hate to spoil anything by saying much, but imho, you need to be a good sport and like fooling around in order to enjoy that place. We love it. And will certainly go back. But we also saw a few patrons with pretty grumpy faces. Has anyone come up with a good (and polite) way to put a...

Hee Hee. Not getting it perfect the first time is and excuse to go back over and over again. :goodvibes I agree with a PP. I think we all make a big deal of it because it can get complicated in some situations, but it doesn't have to be. And you still have lots of time. Any trip to Disney...

Oh, I guess I should have included this in my PP. We're taking the DCL bus. Already paid for before I realized there was cheaper options. Oh well, Disney experience all the way! What we're debating (still) is whether we should take the bus from POR (getting us there quite late) or getting...

Someone mentioned cruise planners a few posts back. What's supposed to be in it? We received something a few weeks back but it's just a personalized welcome brochure and a generic booklet. It came through the TA. They opened it.... :mad:

I'm so sorry to hear that Aymee. That's so tough. I almost lost my dad a couple weeks ago as well but 3 stents in his heart later and he's doing ok. Best wishes to your family.

Oh wow, I didn't realize there was a possibility of sitting alone. Would a group of 3 ever sit alone?

I don't suppose the timezone shift might help you out? Don't know what timezone you're in though. :goodvibes We got early seating and now I think I'm regretting it. I've seen lots of reasons to go for late seating. But, I don't have young kids anymore.

What I see missing from the OP's list is an Ipod FM transmitter and/or a set of mini battery operated speakers.

I've only been there once, but it was BY FAR the most intense interaction I've ever had at a restaurant. If you can't be a good sport, I think it is probably best to tell someone on entry like some other posters recommended. We got the pretty typical treatment, DW and I had to keep our elbows...

I was indeed only hovering over the "My Disney Vacation" link and using the Dining Reservation link from that pop up menu. But, there was no place to put the reservations numbers or phone number. I do have all that information safely stored in email and printed out. However, this morning, I...
