    Does Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway have different scenes than WDW?

    Don't sell the queue short. It's really something especially compared to the WDW queue. You'd think it was a totally different ride the queues are so different.

    Disneyland planned but having never been before panic

    Lots of good advice here already. First - breathe. DL does not require nearly as much planning. Going from one park to the other is a VERY short walk. Maybe 100 yards from gate to gate. The hotel you're staying at will make some difference as well. Most people stay off-site as the Disney owned...

    Favorite non-ride things to do

    The rides get all the attention at DL, right? I mean that's what most people spend their time doing. But what about the non-ride things? What do you like to do that isn't going on Space Mountain or Rise or Pirates? I'll have time to really stop and smell the roses on my next trip and I want to...

    What time to leave to get to SNA airport?

    Yeah, the thing is when I go to sign up for pre-check for the "Citizenship/Immigration Document" the only passport options are for a current passport, or one that has expired within the last 12 months.

    What time to leave to get to SNA airport?

    It’s been expired too long. I checked their guidance on it and it has to have been expired less than a year. Mine expired in 2021.

    What time to leave to get to SNA airport?

    I was looking this up last night. Apparently Global Entry has a 6-18 month backlog right now. I'm just going to do precheck, but I discovered I have to renew my passport first. It expired in 2021 and I have no idea where my birth certificate has gone.

    What time to leave to get to SNA airport?

    I have never looked at precheck before. I always thought it was $100/year and I don’t fly enough for it to be worth it. I didn’t realize that was for 5 years! I’m definitely doing this for me and my wife! We’re just going to go ahead and do the Global one since we’ve got some international...

    What time to leave to get to SNA airport?

    I'm actually flying on Breeze. They are starting a daily route next month from the regional airport 15 minutes from my house that leaves at 7:00 a.m. and gets to SNA about 8 (local time) and then a return flight at 7:30(ish) each evening. Local Disnerds are calling it the "Disneyland Express"...

    What time to leave to get to SNA airport?

    I'm going to be there on a Tuesday. I've considered getting pre-check. I haven't flown a ton in the past, but it's going to be happening more this year.

    Do you have to stay at GCH? There are plenty of nice hotels in easy walking distance for waaaaay less.

    What time to leave to get to SNA airport?

    So I'm basically doing a one day out-and-back trip in February. Flying to SNA in the morning and a return flight in the evening. The return flight starts boarding at 7:20 p.m. and I figure I want to be at the airport by 6:30 at the latest. I don't need to check bags or anything, just need to...

    Won all-expenses paid WDW trip - only 2 days in parks - ride strategy help?

    I checked into that when the contest started. I haven't been with the company very long and my boss told me that the CEO does these contests every year. He's won a couple of times and never had tax implications. I know they'll be taking some pictures and I think there's one short meeting or...

    Won all-expenses paid WDW trip - only 2 days in parks - ride strategy help?

    Oooooook...so I just booked an additional 3 days at Pop Century. Upgrading the tickets my company is providing to 5-day tickets, plus 3 nights at Pop are only going to cost me $1500. Just need to figure out the return flight with work.

    Won all-expenses paid WDW trip - only 2 days in parks - ride strategy help?

    Yeah, I already thought about that. The company is covering the taxes. They do giveaways like this every year and don't want them to be a burden like winning a car on a game show.

    Won all-expenses paid WDW trip - only 2 days in parks - ride strategy help?

    Haha, yeah. This is the feedback I was looking for. Our trip to Disneyland we did 5 full days just so we weren't rushed.

    Won all-expenses paid WDW trip - only 2 days in parks - ride strategy help?

    Thanks so much for typing all that out. I'm going to check with the company and see if we can extend our stay. Mostly just want them to still pay for the flights! Otherwise we're also considering dropping Hollywood Studios completely as the only hardcore "Must do" is RnRC and we're fine missing...

    Won all-expenses paid WDW trip - only 2 days in parks - ride strategy help?

    I've been considering that as an option - or just focusing on 2 parks. Not sure how much leeway we have with the travel like if they'd still pay for the flights if we flew back on a different day than what is already planned.

    Won all-expenses paid WDW trip - only 2 days in parks - ride strategy help?

    Long story short I won a trip to WDW through work. It's all expenses paid including food, lodging, airfare and 2-day park hopper tickets. I'm wondering if I could get some advice from all ya'll veterans to make the most of our trip as it's not as long as I'd like with only 2 park days. My wife...

    I just won an all expenses paid trip to WDW!

    Some time in July. Don't have the exact dates yet. Should get that in the next few days. We were joking that if we didn't win at least we weren't going to Florida in July :laughing:

    I just won an all expenses paid trip to WDW!

    Title! I won through a contest at work. They had a contest giving away a bunch of WDW trips and I won one of them! They're paying for airfare, hotel, food and have said there are additional surprises once we get there. My wife and I went to WDW for our honeymoon almost 20 years ago, but haven't...
