    Turning Universal 4 day 3 park dated package tickets to AP

    So I am interested in doing this same thing---how does that work. More specifically, what is the cost if we were to upgrade to the lowest annual pass. We also have a trip planned for this year and another one next year so it makes sense for me to upgrade at least one of us.

    Pop Century Coffee pots

    I was just there in September and I know I have read this on here somewhere but for the life of me I can not recall---the coffee pots in room at Pop Century--do they use k-cups? I am thinking they use those little pod things but I want a lot of coffee and I was thinking I should bring my own...

    Booking rooms for 4 adults/2 couples

    In my honest opinion, now is not the time to take someone on their first trip to Disney. I have been there twice since the re-opening. The magic really isn't there. The rides are there. You can wave at characters as they float or drive by. But it really isn't the same. The smells and the...

    Hoping for Free Dining in the fall

    My thoughts on this is that with the limited number of dining locations and the seriously reduced menu options all dining should be included in the full price tickets you are required to purchase for reduced shows and attractions.

    Do I have to mobile order

    This, and it is horrible---we ate one meal at the Pop quick service. The food is delivered to you in an paper box that holds the heat---our fries were soggy and there is nothing on the menu. Pop used to have a fairly large menu. different options or variations. Now it is a burger and fries. A...

    MK Options Now?

    We love the Plaza. Burgers and sandwiches. The loaded fries are great and a meal in themselves. Really good desserts. For our Magic Kingdom day we were supposed to have CRT but it is not opening so I am finally doing the new menu at Be Our Guest. We have eaten there before just not since the...

    Garden Grill at Epcot to offer modified character experience

    Have they modified the price to reflect the modified experience? I enjoy the food so I might consider but not a character meal price.

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    A Standard room at CB could be a 15 minute bus ride to the front desk, main pool and dining. I'm not quite sure where they put the skyliner station. We stayed there 2 years ago and were at the next to the last bus stop---Jamaica---we stood on the buses a lot. With the reduced capacity hopefully...

    You will be reimbursed for all of it. All extra events are being canceled and then rebooked with fewer people.

    Advanced Dining Reservation window changing from 180 to 60 days prior to arrival

    You won't have too---no fastpasses. I just read the statement. All dining plans are being refunded and all ADR's are being canceled. The new window is because they need to decrease the amount of people in the parks.

    How do you feel about wearing a mask at Disney parks?

    Big fat nope! Our trip is planned for the first week of September. Super hot and super humid. I will stand 6 ft away from people. I will sanitize until I have no skin left. I will budget more for minnie vans so I don't need to be crammed into a bus but I will not wear a mask in that heat.

    What are your "must-do" table services (not buffet or AYCTE)

    The best meal I have ever had at Disney was at Chefs de France. The Lobster Bisque is to die for. We also love Via Napoli and Teppan Edo. Animal Kingdom only offers Tiffins and Yak and Yeti. Both are good depending how much you want to spend. We usually do Yak and Yeti just for the fried wonton...

    2 DDP kids credit questions

    Most of the kids specialty drinks actually come in a souvenir cup or with glowing ice cubes or a light up straw clip of some sort or another and those are not including on any dining plan.

    I’m not sure we made the best restaurant choices…

    Tusker House, Chef Mickey's and Hollywood and Vine are all character meals with the same characters. Maybe on your Magic Kingdom day you should take the boat over to the Wilderness lodge and do the Snow White, Evil Queen dinner at Artist point or even Whispering Canyon Cafe. Whispering Canyon...

    Adjusting to "Disney dining"

    With children ages 3 and 5 are you looking to do character meet and greets? You usually get 5 characters per meal. With that being said character meals are nearly impossible to get into without a reservation. We do a table service meal everyday. Usually a late lunch or early dinner. We do it as...

    Poll | Best Dining at Hollywood Studios

    This was tough because I really like Sci-fi and 50's Prime time but the last few times I have been disappointed. They keep removing items from the menu that we enjoyed or made the portions smaller without lowering the price. I am going with Mama Melrose because I have never had a bad meal there...

    Poll | Best Dining at Animal Kingdom

    I love Tusker House. Someone earlier posted that it was the best buffet at Disney and I agree. I even prefer it over Boma and Boma is good. The variety of smells and flavors. The selection of chutneys alone is a reason to eat there.

    Poll | Best Dining at Magic Kingdom

    We did Jungle Navigation on our last trip and I was deeply disappointed. The menu was limited and quite pricey for what you got. Liberty Tree is good but not something I want to do every trip. I find that I look more to the resorts around the Magic Kingdom than in the Magic Kingdom. I am very...
