    Do you have to have a reservation?

    Was wondering if you are able to just go up to a restaurant you don't have a reservation for, and see if they have availability? Wasn't sure that was still an option, or if you had to book the reservation. Thanks for your help

    Traffic around CBR

    I had read some posts that the traffic around DHS and CBR is very heavy in the evening, which affects drive times. We were thinking of staying at CBR in February, but I am very wary because of this. Wanted to see if anyone has any recent reports or thoughts around this - thank you

    Morning EMH and Fastpasses

    Are you able to get fastpasses during morning EMH? Are the machines open then? We're specifically thinking about the Little Mermaid ride and if we can grab a fastpass as soon as we walk in during a morning EMH. Thanks.

    Will the Little Mermaid have Fastpass?

    I'm assuming so, but as I've seen pictures and videos of the soft opening, it didn't jump out to me. Does anyone know for sure?

    Crowds at Disney now!

    We'll be there next week - and was wondering what the crowds are like now? Looking at wait times on an IPhone app, the waits don't seem that bad - was wondering if that was accurate or not. Thanks!

    AKL Fridge

    We've stayed in the Jambo House before - in a non-deluxe room - and will be doing so again, but with a little one this time. With the little guy, we'll have more stuff for the fridge, and I can't remember how big it is. Is there enough room for some Ocean Spray juice, milk, and other items...
