    Oxygen Rental Question

    My son is not a full time oxygen user. At home we have M tank for emergencies and a couple of D tanks. We typically don’t travel with them. We are leaving in a few days and it looks like my son might need some oxygen while we are there. Does anyone have an oxygen rental place? He doesn’t need a...

    Medical Equipment Storage

    Does anyone know if first aid will store medical equipment? We've been to WDW many time with our special needs son, but recent health complications will require us to take his suction machine and bi-pap with us for this go round. We can always rent a locker, but I thought it might be handy to...

    Ticket Usage Question

    Hubby and I are contemplating adding a quick night at MK on an upcoming trip to Orlando with our son. We are mostly there for a non-Disney cruise, but if our flight is on time, no major hassles at the airport etc., we'd able to get enough hours in with EMH to justify the cost of the ticket. (We...

    AP rates prior to having AP

    Are the PH rates tough to get? I used the procedure above and no PH rate rooms seemed to be available for our travel dates in early December. I am in the same boat at the OP. I am trying to decide whether regular tickets or an AP makes sense for us. Also, I called and the person I spoke with...

    Tube Feeding and the DDP

    We are planning a trip in May with another family through our DVC. They are very interested in getting the Disney Dining Plan. We haven't gotten the DDP (among other reasons) in a long time because of the requirement to include everyone on the reservation on the Plan. I have a disabled son...

    Is Memory Maker the same as the passholder entitlement?

    So my husband and I are both active Premiere passholders. It is my understanding that we would be entitled to the new photo benefit, correct? We have a trip to WDW in two weeks and wouldn't you know it, I added Memory Maker on to our trip on Saturday right before this kicked in. Assuming I am...

    Best strategy for switching resorts at 7 months?

    When does the 7 month window go "live" online? At midnight EDT or when Member Services opens? We've been member for years, but I really want to change a ressie and get the best possible switch at the 7 months.

    Magic Bands 101

    Such a dumb question, but I am sure somewhere here has a great answer. Do you have to check into your resort in order for your MagicBands to be "active"? And by active I mean to be used as park admission and for charging and for accessing FP+ ressies. We are driving from Miami after...

    Wheelchair on cruise

    When we've sailed in the Dream, our WC room was set up similar to a regular room. We too are a party of three, myself, DH and our son Nathan, the one in the WC. We had a king sized bed and he slept on the couch, made up into a bed. The cabin attendant also provide a bed rail for him. It might...

    Ground Transfers in Miami

    How do the DCL ground transfers in Miami work? Are they just from the airport or do they pick up from local hotels? Any insight would be much appreciated.

    One Way Wheelchair Van Rentals

    We are going to be doing a Disney Cruise out of Miami. It's not super efficient, but we want to spend a couple of days at WDW since we'll be so close. To that end has anyone done a one way WC van rental? From Miami to Orlando? We'd keep it while we were on property and return when we flew...

    Fall 2015. Information out now.

    Does anyone know how this works if you are actually onboard when the announcement is made and the bookings open up soon thereafter? It's probably academic in our case since we are pretty fully booked for 2015, but it seems crazy to me that while onboard the actual ship you could be the most out...

    Goodbye Kouzzina

    After multiple trips to WDW and many many restaurant meals, we've only had two bad experiences at a WDW restaurant and one of them was here. We later had a breakfast here and it was good, but I will be more interested to see what they have going in here.

    Accessible Wild Africa Trek Trip Report

    Thanks so much for posting this. With my son in his WC, I would have never imagined something like this would be open to us. We'll definitely have to consider this!! Do you happen to know if your group can be split? I'm thinking what you described would be perfect for my son and I, but hubby...

    Mother's Day

    I wouldn't get your hopes up for too many special things. I've sailed twice on Mother's Day, once in the Dream and once on the Wonder. The Wonder cruise was also last year's Panama Canal cruise and that Sunday happened to be Canal day, so there was very little to do with Mother's Day. Photo...

    Disney Cruise App

    We were on the Fantasy in January and the app worked fine. Of course for those of us (myself included) who have spouses who are tied to their smart phone more than they would like, this gives them an excuse to keep their phone in hand even on the cruise (grr and sigh). I am not sure if it...

    How many years did ot take you to reach platinum?

    It took us 7 years. Interestingly enough, we had two under our belt when they announced the levels in 2009. Hubby and I figured we'd NEVER become platinum. Our next cruise in May we'll be wearing black lanyards though. Good thing we're not fortune tellers by trade!! I do think the idea of...

    Panama Canal - onboard activities

    We did the May 2013 WBPC. As cruisers we really enjoy activities and typically plan our days around trivias, character meets etc. With 2 weeks though, we figured we might have to make our own fun at some point, so we brought iPads loaded with movies and books. Long story short, we barely ever...
