We just rented DVC points for an AKL stay in a Kidani villa and loved it. They had a number of activities for the kids beyond the pool games dealing with the animals and African culture and I enjoyed the restaurants - and I don't normally enjoy Disney restaurants. They had guides routinely...

Our kids liked AoA better than POR and so did we because we got a suite and had a separate room for ourselves. We also got groceries delivered and saved a good bit using the kitchenette for breakfast and snacks. If any of the AoA themes are among his favorite movies, it will probably be...

We just went to the quick service restaurant at WL fairly late in the evening and they let us park with no problems. We were guests at AKL and I think they did scan our magic bands, but we definitely didn't have an ADR there.

I don't know about the comparison but we were there Tues-Sun before President's Day two years ago. The Tues/Wed were light, Thursday started to pick up, Friday was crowded, and they did staged closings of MK (by ticket level) on Saturday. Sunday was also super crowded. Flew out on Monday. It...

Another vote for checking out Animal Kingdom Lodge to see the animals and theming.

Checking in next Wednesday. Can anyone confirm that the hot tub is open past 8pm? Auntie is taking the kids for a night and I thought a late night dip might be nice.

Our flight gets in at 9am and I was planning to head straight to Hollywood Studios. Do we need to go by our resort to get authorization for free parking in the theme parks or can you show documentation of your reservation at the parking gate? Thanks!

Pardon my ignorance here as I've only stayed on-site once, but does this mean that hot tubs are closed at 8 as well?

Just wanted to suggest to everyone to pack gloves and a scarf. My girls and I can generally get away with a light jacket as long as we have warm hands. If the gloves aren't needed, they don't take up much space in DH's backpack. They saved us on a couple of ~40degree nights.

We have a split stay with the first part of our stay off site and the second at Disney. We linked our Undercover Tourist tickets on the MDE. We weren't able to set up our FPs until 60 days before our first Disney reservation night, but at that point the system let us set up FPs for every day...

Thanks for the info. If they have closed the experiment, I wish they wouldn't continue to send out emails with the link and an invitation to set up the fastpass. I got a second one just yesterday (split stay) and of course there was no avaiability.

I am starting to think there is something wrong with the site for some people. It could still be a matter of timing but it seems that other people are getting reservations for days I checked and got the "no availability" message.

Have you considered DVC point rental to stay in a villa in either Kidani (which is newer) or Jambo House (which is the same as the lodge, but maybe the villa rooms have been done more recently? I'm not sure)? There is info on point rental on these boards and you can Google it. You can make...

I'm wondering the same thing. I have yet to see any availability and I'm looking 1/29-2/2.

I only ate there for lunch but Tusker House in Animal Kingdom was one of the few places where I actually enjoyed the vegetarian options and there were a fair number of them on the buffet.

Thanks for posting. Two vegetarians in the family and on our way back. Last time I found Tusker House's buffet in Animal Kingdom to be one our best vegetarian experiences. There were a lot of salad, bean, and assorted side dishes to choose from.

I got the email link yesterday and have tried a few times to secure a fastpass but get a message that they are all taken for a trip commencing 20 days from now. Is it worth frequently rechecking or am I likely out of luck?

We spent the holidays mostly successfully dodging various family viruses including the flu. But alas my husband was confirmed with it today. Our trip begins January 28. I'm wondering if we should all just give him a kiss and get it over with. We've all been vaccinated but it isn't working on...

We also got UT tix and didn't get them in time for 60 day mark (tix shipped two days after order, arrived exactly 5 days after order). We are going end of Jan. beginning of Feb. so not as busy as President's Day, but there was still availability for mine train (on a crowd day rated as a 7 for...
