    Tickets & Free Dining

    It it standard WDW practice these days that when free dining is offered, you must purchase a package with a minimum of 2 days of park admissions for each person in your party? Trying to figure how many park admissions I have lying around from past visits and how many I may need to purchase. TIA!!

    Help Me Spend My Disney Reward Dollars

    Will be visiting for a few days (first time) midweek, last week of August. Some poor planning on my part. Didn't realize no Fantasmic midweek and had planned on splurging with Disney Reward dollars for the Dessert package. Have about $500 to splurge (staying offsite, so no help with hotel)...

    How much time needed for SD Zoo?

    Thanks for the info Miss SD. We'll be all over the state on this trip, but will be staying in SD for this leg which will include the Zoo, the Padres game and Sea World. Based on reviews on Trip Advisor, was thinking of staying at Courtyard by Marriott San Diego Airport in a two bedroom suite...

    How much time needed for SD Zoo?

    We'd like to squeeze in the Zoo and a Padres game on the same day. The Padres game starts at 5:30 pm. Would there be sufficient time to see the Zoo and still make the game? What's the distance between the two locations? TIA!!

    Fantasmic Dessert Buffet

    How's the view of the show from the reserved Dessert seats? If I have small kids, will I need to worry about people being seated in front of us?

    Which Park Which Day/Planning Question (with hotel question thrown in)

    Thanks for the reply. I know that the DIS is the place to go for the real scoop. As a DLR novice, I picked up a copy of the Unofficial Guide. The suggestion there was to avoid DL on an early entry day if you're not using early entry and, instead, to go to DCA on such a day instead. Wasn't...

    Spaceship Earth...worth doing?

    We usually do it on our way out of the park around 3:30 - 4. Never had to wait to get on. I always use it for a 20 minute nap. My kids seem to enjoy it.

    Anybody checking into POFQ 8/15 or 16 and want a free stroller?

    Hi Claudia. What a very generous offer. I'm interested, but not sure my timing/location will work. We arrive on Friday, Aug. 20 at POR (your sister property). I suspect that POFQ would likely transport the stroller to POR, but am not certain. I also suspect that POR would hold the stroller...

    Last week in August: am I insane?

    Our last three trips have been last week of August. We love it. We get to the parks early, usually take off back to resort after an early lunch, relax and swim, and shoot back for our "Free Dining" dinner and evenings in the parks. As many have mentioned, crowds are manageable (but by no...

    There is still hope for a summer discount...

    Hey Teresa ... long time, no chat. I haven't been on DIS in quite some time, but we too are planning a WDW trip this summer (last week of August). Hoping for a free dining deal to be released. We're staying moderate (Port Orleans Riverside because we need 2 rooms), but have stayed Deluxe at...

    Has anyone used the AAA Diamond Parking Passes?

    For our 2008 trip, we purchased one day admission for one person in our group from AAA and that entitled us to the Diamond Parking Pass. It was well worth it to us for parking at AK and Epcot as mentioned.
