    Can you help me pick a Disney World hotel?

    I am painfully indecisive about this and would very much appreciate some input. We are a family of 4 (kids ages 11 and 8) spending 5 nights and 4 days at Disney World in late October. We plan to do MNSSHP one day and 3 days in the parks. I am currently booked at the Doubletree (free to...

    Water Park and Other Activity Question

    We are going to MNSSHP on 10/25 and want to arrive around 4-5pm. Since we will arrive late the night before, I wasn't planning on doing a park day before the party. I am thinking of going to one of the Disney or non-Disney waterparks for a few hours. Our hotel (Doubletree Disney Springs)...

    What is your rain strategy?

    I welcome the rain because the crowds thin out. Yes it isn't a pleasant, but it is easier to get on rides and makes for some fun and funny memories. Bring ponchos, a change of clothes for the kids, and change of socks for everyone. With those items we did fine in a 2 hour torrential downpour...

    Fastpass Booking Window Question

    I promise I tried to figure this out on my own but have found more than one answer so was hoping someone can confirm for me. I am staying at a Disney Springs hotel for 5 nights, but not going to the parks until our second full day there so we only have a 3 day park hopped. My Fastpass book...

    September or October for Weekend Trip

    I am trying to decide between going for a 4 night/3 park day trip from a Wednesday to Sunday in either mid September or early October this year. The Touring PLans crowd calendar shows the crowd levels for my dates in September would be 1-2 and for October it would be 5-6. The weather is better...

    Vampire costumes ok for MNSSHP?

    I wouldn't think DS and DH would be too over the top. Probably some fangs and just a little fake blood maybe.

    Vampire costumes ok for MNSSHP?

    DS and DH want to be vampires. Is this "child friendly" enough for MNSSHP? Or is it too scary?

    AKL Standard Room Request

    We are staying at AKL 10/23-10/28. We have children ages 3 and 6 and plan to spend a lot of time in the parks with a little back and forth for rests. I have been reading about the best standard room requests and am torn between requesting a room that might have a partial Savannah view and...

    Booked at AKL and now WL available-WWYD?

    Ok, so this is my third post about figuring out our resort for a late October trip to Disney. Can you tell I am indecisive? :) We are a family our 4-2 kids ages 3 and 6. When we were first booking we wanted WL with the free dining promotion, but by the time I decided to go with it there were...

    How much more crowded is MNSSHP on a Fri vs Thurs?

    We are debating going Thursday 10/24 or Friday 10/25. I understand why Fridays are more crowded, but am wondering just how much more crowded it would be on Friday? Enough to be a definitely noticeable difference that would impact the experience? We want to see the parade and fireworks and...

    Lost out on WL room and now betwen POR and AKL

    I had been debating between WL and POR and decided to go with WL. I was really excited about it because I wanted the convenience to MK. But when I went to book rooms with the promotion were all sold out! Sad...So now it is down to POR or AKL. Price is about the same because AKL has free...

    WL or POR?

    So I went to go book WL yesterday morning and no rooms with the promotion were left! I was so sad. So now it is down to POR or AKL, and the price is about the same when I factor in free dining vs. room discount. I guess I will have to start a new thread!

    What night for MNSSHP?

    WE are a family of four with an almost 3 year old and 6 year old. The 6 year old naps only once in a blue moon-maybe a handful of times in a year. The almost 3 year old naps often, but not every day, so she is not a solid regular napper either. We get in late night on a Wednesday (about 11...
