    Anyone else concerned about the crowd increase?

    DeterminedOne, I hear you on the Fast Pass! When I see 70 minute waits for HM, 7DMT and ToT...that's a problem with No FP! If you can go do something else and come back, that's fine but, to stand in a line with folks that don't understand social distancing (Yes, take a look on You Tube if you...

    Anyone else concerned about the crowd increase?

    I guess we all knew it would happen but, the jump from manageable crowds to what appears to be chaos on weekends and recent weekdays seems too much too soon. It appears the need to recover lost dollars outweighs the safety of guests at this point. The pictures/videos and articles over the past...

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    For what it's worth, I think Disney will find a way to take care of the confirmed resort guests for 2020. Pretty frustrating for those of us with existing reservations/minus tix, I know but, It seems an odd decision to give priority to a ticket holder with a day or two left over a confirmed week...

    October crew checking in

    We are booked at BLT for OCT 17-24. Unfortunately 3 of the 5 didn't buy tix before the shut down so not sure if we want to go hang out in a hotel with no park admissions. I guess we can go the Travel insurance route if Disney decides not to sell anymore tix for 2020 room only reservation. Kind...

    WDW COVID-19 Operational Changes- Reservation System-Rope Drop Procedures

    I know there is a ton of unknowns but, I have an interesting scenario. I have a two bedroom villa that we booked back in January for an October trip. There are 5 of us going...maybe. Two of us have tix and the others currently do not. Since tix aren't for sale and you can't make a park...

    What is going on in Mid October?

    Thanks Sherlee, that makes sense then. Perhaps they will stay at the conference instead of the parks. I guess Dinner ADRs will be a top priority. Cheers.

    What is going on in Mid October?

    Holy smokes! We decided to take a trip in mid October and availability seems like a holiday. We purposely avoided Columbus day week as we expected a lot of folks would take advantage but, the following week is completely sold out at Swan and Dolphin and there is little to no availability at the...

    Mid-July vs. Mid-August Visit

    Our family has done both. I don't think the crowd levels will differ significantly. The only real problem is the heat, if that bothers you. August can be really warm.

    At WDW now.....

    I'm with you on the WL, we have been numerous times over the last few years and every time we try a new resort we always end up saying we want to go back to the WL. Anyway, we are going next week and I was curious as to your report on crowd levels. We have never gone in August before due to...

    Bistro de Paris - Closed for reno

    Yes folks the Bistro is closing for a rehab. I received the email as well as I had one reservation for August and one for the F&W in October. What I was told by the rep from Chefs de France/Bistro is that they EXPECT the refurb to run through September and the restaurant will be available for...

    Jersey Week discounts?

    Well it is interesting that they did not block out Jersey week. That is giving me hope that maybe there is a chance of some discounts. Is your AKL reservation for Jersey week as well? If so, you are doing really well with $180/nt. Cheers, Schuey

    Jersey Week discounts?

    Wow, that's a nice break. We have been fortunate enough to have one PIN work for us over the last half dozen trips. I think the Mouse has figured he can lure us in without a pin. I will keep my fingers crossed but I have a feeling AAA discount may be the best we can do for this week. Cheers...

    Jersey Week discounts?

    The FD is not really a big deal for us (no flames please). We tend to eat at the Signature restaurants for Dinner so we would be out of credits in a day or so. I was more interested in room only discounts, we have an AP which we use for the Tables in Wonderland discounts but our TA has been...

    Jersey Week discounts?

    Hello all, Just curious as to whether anyone has had any success in securing discounts for Jersey week in November (11/6-11/13/11). We are thinking of heading down and I'm wondering if it will be crazy busy and whether any discounts are popping up. Cheers, Schuey

    BEER lover looking for something different...

    As a previous poster mentioned, Le Cellier has the Unibroue beers which are as close to a Belgian as you will find at the World. I like to eat at Le Cellier but, I enjoy the Maudite and La fin du Monde as much as anything. The F&W festival has some decent 'Fest beers, if you are there for that...

    First visit to BWI

    Hello all, We just returned from a weeklong visit to the BWI. Wow, it was hot last week but, better hot than freezing if I'm travelling to Florida. This was our first visit to the BWI (we have been WL fans for the past 6 visits) and although we liked the resort both DW myself and two, now...

    Boardwalk Inn & Water View

    I am interested in this question also. It is a bit confusing as to what a "water view" in the Inn as opposed to the Villas really is. I have heard everything from you will look out over the Boardwalk itself to maybe pool or canal. I tend to agree for the premium price over standard, staring at...

    La Nouba - do or not? And how long?

    As a previos poster said the show is about 90 minutes and well worth it. It is a definite experience that my two DD's thoroughly enjoyed. I have not seen the Blue man Group so I can't comment but I would definitely check out la Nouba if you can. Cheers, Schuey

    BWI Water View

    Thanks much for the replies! I would prefer a lake view but I'm sure the pool and canal would be just fine. Cheers, Schuey

    BWI Water View

    Hello all, Looking for you BWI vets that are familiar with what a water view consists of. Crescent Lake? Canal? Pool? We have always stayed at the WL and my DW just booked a stay at the BWI with a water view. I'm trying to understand what exactly we may be staring at from the balcony. Oh and...
