I know that we can enter the park during Magic Morning without a MM ticket if we have a reservation for breakfast at Plaza Inn. Now, my question is: can I enter at 7 a.m. if my reservation is only at 7:30 or do I need to wait? Thanks!

Thanks again for all the replies, they were very informative. Unfortunately, we ended up being booked off-property, so it was moot!

Thanks for the quick replies! Now, the problem is that the original hotel booking will very likely be made by a travel agency, not us. I thought I could call the hotel afterwards and add the dining plan + tickets to that reservation on our card, but I don't know if it's just wishful thinking. I...

My husband is staying in Disneyworld for a conference, so we're tagging along. The hotel will be paid with a business credit card. Can I add a dining plan on a different card? Thanks!

We did this last February. We stayed in San Diego near Balboa Park, took a cab to the train station ($6), the Amtrak to Anaheim and another cab to Disneyland ($14, which we split with another mom+kid that was looking for a cab as well). The ride there went great, but on the way back it was...

Thanks for the replies! I guess in the end I just want DS to have a nice time (don't we all?) He's three and he's suddenly really into Mickey Mouse. So, the only think that doesn't seem doable because of the short notice is the Mickey Mouse Restaurant thing. Is there any way to get last...

Thanks for your replies! It seems like it'd be way too crowded and I'm not sure Id have time to plan things out properly. It'd be a pity. What about MLK weekend? (Jan 16th)

We had been looking into going to WDW during thanksgiving a few months ago but then decided against it. Well, now it's back on the table. Would that be crazy? (we've never been to Disney). Are there any promos going on now (free dining?). Would we be better off waiting until next year instead?

Yes, I've been reading over and over just how important it is to make it there early each day! It would definitely be a challenge, since we're usually up late, but we could make it, I think. Thanks for the hotel info! It's such a pity that it is 4 and up, since he's totally out of pullups. I...

Thanks for all the replies! I just read through the whole Unofficial Guide book (yes, the whole thing), and while halfway through it I really thought we'd be better off in some tranquil beach instead, I'm pretty excited about going to WDW now. Thanks to the posters who brought up the $99 photo...

Thank you! That's exactly the information I needed!

So, I was all set to choose POP for our first trip to WDW (we usually stay in cheap hotels whenever we go on vacation), but I'm seeing that WDW Dolphin and Port Orleans Riverside Resort would be just $200 more total, and it would include the better dinner plan AFAIK. Would it be worth it?

That makes a lot of sense, maybe then we'll just go to the one parade and use the rides while the other ones happen. I think it'll mostly depend on what captivates my son while we're there. He's 3 so he's pretty big on repetition.

Thank you! We'd probably be fine spending too much money on photographs, because really, we're terrible (if we don't forget our camera altogether and end up shooting from our phones only), especially if we can look at the from home instead of being pressured on the spot. Thanks! my son just...

Great, thanks. It's good to know what we shouldn't miss. Achievable sounds good to me. I think my son and I will love Dumbo, so we'll make sure to get there early. :: OK, I just bought the unofficial guide eBook, and I'm sure that between that and all this advice I will feel a lot less...

Thanks! Sounds like a sound plan! Ohh, I love guide books, thanks for the reminder! And wow, maybe we don't really need to see any parades. My son doesn't really know the characters outside of Cars, really, except for Rapunzel. Maybe we should rent some Disney movies between now and then.

Thanks! I practically have my reservations: flight, cheapest hotel on property, dining plan, some photo album thing (through AA... long story, we're basically doing this trip to use up some vouchers). I'm pretty sure we won't do park hopping tickets. Moving onto the whole spreadsheet thing...

So we're taking DS3 to Disney over the Labor Day weekend. Neither DH nor I have ever been to Disney, so I'm feeling a little overwhelmed about how to plan things. Would it make sense to try to make it to one park a day, or should we focus on one or two? How many attractions should we be able...

Thanks! We'll be going during Thanksgiving so 10% is already better than the 0% I expected!
