    alaska questions

    Check hotwire for hotel deals as the hotels near the port are expensive. You sometimes can get the same or similar one for much less. Vancouver is a great city so take a day or two before the cruise to enjoy it.

    How to book dining reservation for a large group

    Few possible options available. (1) call the restaurant for large groups as some have certain seating times for large groups (best way to go), (2) create a separate MDE account and make two different bookings for the same time and ask to combine tables when you check-in (may or may not happen...

    Rise of the Resistance Boarding Groups - Should only 1 person try to get them for your group?

    I had a issue with multiple people trying using two linked MDE accounts and ended up getting two different return times having booked separately on the app. Guest Services was able to combine the two return times however they said not to do this and only have one person try to book a return...

    Full return for Florida's cruise industry may not happen until 2022

    A buddy of mine (middle age) walked into a grocery store the other night about 30min before closing that was providing vaccine shots at the instore pharmacy. He jokingly asked if he could get a shot and they said "yes" because they had unused dosages remaining that would go to waste due to some...

    Private Excursions

    We only book independently and almost always a private tour as it gives us the most control over what we want to do. Booking with the cruise line, besides being more expensive, waste so much time in logistics due to the large number of people on the tour. You can see probable twice as much in...

    What's Going on at Board Walk?

    Yes the fun of staying at BWV has definitely changed. You do not get the same energy of all the people, shops, and restaurants. That is why we decided to stay at SSR last trip to visit DS as often as we wanted.

    Disney Spring to Saratoga Springs Question

    Both walking form SSR or Hotel Plaza hotels use the same entry point temp check by the Once Upon A Toy store. It was always fast and easy to get through as the mostly the only people who enter are from those two locations or Uber drop-offs. Also staying at SSR I recommend walking to DS...

    What is Saratoga Springs like during the pandemic?

    Agree with above comments. We just left SSR and Disney is doing everything they can. We walked twice to DS from the Paddock section. We did try to take the DS bus however the frequency seemed limited and it was quicker to walk. All the other park buses came very frequent. The Paddock pool...

    Anyone wanting to take the bus to HS get there before 9am. We left the room at 8:45am and there was already a line of people waiting (not exactly a line but people knew who was there before others). We missed the first bus (that we saw) around 9am and then caught the next bus at 9:15am. We...

    Bringing Drinks On Board

    We also brought one roll-on bag with 8 bottles of wine for two rooms/4 adults and security never said a word. Sometimes I wonder how strict they really are in checking as I could have had more bottles and security would have never questioned it.

    1/2 a day at Epcot the day before our cruise?

    Go, go, go. You never know when you might get the chance again. Sounds like you not concerned about the cost so why not.

    Day at MK before/after cruise or not at all?

    Your kids will most likely be too tired after the cruise to enjoy the park. Go before.

    Formal Night - Do people dress fancy or not?

    For us it depends on the cruise. In the Caribbean we tend to be more relaxed on dressing up versus Alaska or Europe we tend to dress up more. You will see almost everything for formal dress.
