    AP renewal

    We renewed (and downgraded) our AP's today. Even though we currently only have one six day trip on the books for only 16ish dollars more we were able to renew our AP's to the seasonal AP's (we don't travel during the blockout dates.) Plus wth the extra three months we now may be able to sneak...

    AP rates for October

    My Savvy traveller rate at PB was better until this morning. RP standard rooms really dropped. Saving almost $900 by switching to RP standard 2 Queens room (there's only two of us).

    Portofino v. Royal including walking distance

    THIS! We learned about the shortcut from the boards and used it when we stayed at PB last Nov. Granted we were in the west wing and it was two adults walking over, but we made it in under nine minutes each time. Took us longer to get to RP each time we walk on the stay before that. I think...

    Is Universal doing away with Pass holder hotels rates?

    Checked this morning for a couple days the first week of November and AP rates are there for some hotels. Nothing for Royal Pacific or Hard Rock, but Portofino has some AP rates as do the other hotels.

    STEAKHOUSE 71!!

    Thank you - that's what I was afraid of...that it was a special lunch menu for the preview.

    STEAKHOUSE 71!!

    If you were there for lunch today, do you remember if the pork chop might have been on the menu? It hasn't been on any of the official ones online, but it was on for lunch when they did the preview. Didn't know if it was just for that day or not.

    Cash Discount - not always?

    Thanks Sandi. Perhaps that was it. I also tried the call back and get a different cast member and it was the same. Same price as the standard room I had at BC for a studio at BCV.

    Cash Discount - not always?

    Hi all, I've used the 25% cash discount a number of times in the past by calling MS. If a room was available for cash I always had the discount. Just called today, room was available for cash, but no discount on it. Is this new or had I always just gotten lucky in the past with dates and...

    60 day window open and almost no choices…

    I tried this morning and I'm having the exact same issue if I try and book a specific restaurant. If I just put in a time at the top and let it show me everything available then I can book all the days. Crazy!

    May need to leave early... Any chance points returned?

    A little different situation but a few years ago I had checked in for a week vacation at AKV on points. Later that day I got word my father-in-law had passed away so I wanted to get a flight home as fast as possible. I went to the front desk just to let them know and they grabbed a manager...

    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    I booked four nights (AAA rate) in October two weeks ago and saw last week the prices drop a bit, so I modified. I keep checking every couple days to see if that might happen again. Imagine my surprise when I looked yesterday and the total price had doubled for the same days. Granted, I did...

    Official Disney Cake Chatter - Part V!

    I wanted to say thanks and this worked perfectly. I called, was connected to private dining and left a message for custom cakes. Got a call back a few hours later and told them what I was looking for and set it all up. I'll report back on the final product!

    Official Disney Cake Chatter - Part V!

    I just tried calling the number on page one for Y&B and was transferred to guest services as "the person you have reached does not subscribe to this system." They then said they are not doing specialty cakes at this time. But I swore I've seen folks get them at Y&B...was I dreaming? Thanks!

    Official Disney Cake Chatter - Part V!

    So I'm about a year late in posting these (basically took a break all of the last year) but still wanted to share as, I think, the GF knocked it out of the park. They did my 40th and I called and spoke to someone and even sent drawings. Got a call back that things may have been a bit too...

    Turf Club at SSR

    This one being closed has always puzzled me as they also have that great outdoor dining space that I'm sure would have been used throughout this past year. All I can think if is that maybe their kitchen is tiny and they could not distance well in there?
