    Bonus 90 minutes or so on travel in day- what to do?

    We will just have backpacks, traveling light. I am assuming we will be able to put them in a locker somewhere in the park for the short time we are there.

    Bonus 90 minutes or so on travel in day- what to do?

    DS 10 and I are flying in Wednesday, arriving at 4:40pm at MCO. Assuming we can Lyft straight to the park and get into IOA (7Pm close), we MIGHT get 60-90 minutes (have a 5 day ticket and won't use all 5 anyway). Crowd predictor is estimated a 4/10. Is it possible to hustle to Velocicoaster and...

    Strategy for Hagrid's when staying offsite?

    We'll be there May 10th through 13th! Very excited for our first trip. The crowd calendar looks very manageable, 4-5 on Wed-Fri and 7 on Saturday. It could be a LOT worse than that!

    3+2 free days ticket purchase question

    The cheapest annual pass is $399, and I have no plans on returning until at least Epic Universe opens, so it would be a waste when the 3 day tickets are $265.

    3+2 free days ticket purchase question

    I have a trip planned for May 11-14 coming up, but don't fly in until 4:30PM so that isn't really going to be possible to get in the park before 6PM and use a ticket. I just now went to buy the tickets thinking they were $233 per person for one park per day, BUT apparently that is a "low as"...

    Strategy for Hagrid's when staying offsite?

    I think that if you enjoy ET the movie at all, you should definitely make time to ride it. It's an aging attraction (the last remaining opening day ride if I recall?), and is a wonderful dark ride that's fun for everyone. It has some... ahem, unique scenes at the end, and has some Pirates-esque...

    Very early park closing 4/23?

    Oh I'm looking at the week after, 4/29-30 shows a 6PM closing.

    Very early park closing 4/23?

    Also, 6PM closing on a Saturday? That seems very odd for any park.

    Cost for Transportation to the hotels

    Hopping aboard. Will be doing MCO- Fun Spot Kissimmee to FSO in one evening. I have Lyft pink and will post prices when I go in May. Rental car for 4 days is $290 so taking 4 Uber rides between mco, FS, USO back to MCO will be much less especially without gas purchases.

    Question about buying a season pass for hotel discount for Royal Pacific in May

    I am planning a father son trip (DS10, first time to USO) for the second weekend in May. With all of the research I've done, I have found inconclusive results whether 1. it will be worth it to pay over $400 for a night at Royal Pacific to get two days of express passes for us, or if we should...

    Need help with some planning ideas an April father son trip please!

    Thank you for the tips, I will definitely check into the AP discount as an option. Having motivation to return within a year would be a pleasurable burden for sure as well!

    Need help with some planning ideas an April father son trip please!

    That is interesting, I did not know FJ was all that different, as I had heard the Hollywood version was just a clone. I will definitely make sure we check that out in that case. We are also looking forward to seeing the JP River Adventure, as my son has only been on the JW version at USH and...

    Need help with some planning ideas an April father son trip please!

    Thank you! I am definitely flexible on the dates, I was just thinking April would be warmer for the water rides (we definitely want to ride Dudley and the Bluto rides). If February would make more sense crowd wise then we would be good with that. I know Mummy is going down for a lengthy refurb...

    Need help with some planning ideas an April father son trip please!

    I’m planning a birthday trip for my DS10 and I for April (trying to avoid SB crowds) and it will be our first USO visit (Disney vets changing it up). It would be a long weekend, with 3 park days. I am trying to figure out if Express passes will be all that necessary, and if 2 days at the USO...

    Magical Express - Never Again

    We flew in at 5:30PM on Thanksgiving day, and the ME queue d maybe 20 people in it total. We waited 10 minutes to get on the bus, and another 25 minutes sitting in the bus before we left. We have actually only had a long wait at DME once in 9 trips, which was back in 2008 and were staying at All...

    Here now, broken MK

    Don't know if this is still the rule, but when I worked attractions, they would make" us "pulse" the standby line, meaning stop the fp line to let some standby through once in a while. That way the standby line doesn't just sit there unmoving forever. I always hated this, because the whole...

    Advice needed for nice Orlando off-site restaurant for our anniversary...

    We aren't too particular about types of cuisine, nor will we be in any particular area. We will be traveling back from the vero beach area in the evening. Celebration sounds nice, we've never been over there. I guess I'm more interested in something possibly unique to Orlando, something I can't...
