    Once Upon a Time Projection Show to replace Celebrate the Magic

    Thanks Rteez, We sometimes watch Wishes from the top of the Contemporary where you can clearly see the castle. But it makes sense that you probably can't see it from anywhere else.

    Split Stay ADR Question

    Hi, I am a DVC member with 2 separate memberships. Usually when I book a trip, I Transfer the points from one membership to the other. However, when I booked my trip for 2015, they were able to do it without the transfer. I have 2 reservations: 10/9 to 10/12 and 10/12 to 10/17. As of now...

    Apple Pay coming to Disney by Christmas 2014. - what do you think?

    A Phone lighter than the Magic Band? You're right, probably not... But what about a watch? Interestingly, the iWatch already has a Starwood Hotels app where you can use your phone to unlock your hotel room. Sound familiar?

    Has Disney done anything to recognize Robin Williams' death?

    When someone dies of cancer, we acknowledge that the disease took their life. Robin Williams died of depression, it was a disease that took his life.

    Malestrom

    When I think of India, I think of food, dancing, and outsourced jobs. The restaurant and dance shows could be amazing, but the true gold lies in the outsourced jobs. Think of being strapped into a roller coaster themed as a desk; it races through an office complex into HR where you experience...

    Malestrom

    I was booking my Fast Pass Selections this morning for my trip in early October when I noticed that the Malestrom wasn't an option in Epcot (not that I was picking it). Is it scheduled for refurbishment?

    Epcot with toddlers

    There are some great suggestions listed previously and I agree with many of them. One thing not mentioned is the music. My son loved (and still loves - he's 5) the live bands that play. Some of the best video we got was him dancing to the British Invasion, Off Kilter, and the band inside the...

    Shipping to hotel

    Yes, you can still ship to your resort. We ship a package every year. I usually time it to get to the resort at least 3 days prior to my arrival. I recommend calling the resort as they all have somewhat unique instructions to make sure your package is received and stored properly.

    Disney Dining Reservations - 180 days out

    I suggest you call... When I booked my reservations at the 180 day mark, I woke up by 6am and tried to do it through MDE without success. I called at 7am and was advised that sometimes the 180+10 works on MDE, sometimes it doesn't. You'd think by now the process would be a bit more...

    Best three restaurants at Epcot?

    We enjoy Biergarten and Chefs - the lounges in Italy and Morocco are also very nice and serve food. Beyond that, try the Yachtsman or Blue Zoo - both within walking distance of EPCOT's International Gateway. By the way, Flying Fish used to be a favorite of ours, but after 3 poor meals in a...

    Friday the 9th

    Hi all, My family and I will be spending 1day in Disneyland this Friday. We're WDW regulars and have little experience visiting Disneyland. Any advice regarding which park to visit? Would one be more crowded than the other? Thanks!

    Help for the math impaired

    Hi all, I have a trip scheduled for 10/3/14 to 10/11/14, staying at the Boardwalk. I'm having a hard time figuring out when I can book my reservations... 180 days from 10/3 is April 6th (I think). But 180 days + 10 is March 27th (I think). Any help on when I can actually call and...

    Several disney Execs retiring what gives?

    Keep in mind that many people who would have retired a few years ago have stuck around because the market was so bad. Add to that the need for a fresh perspective as well as posturing for a new regime around 2016, and you get lots 'o retirements. It's cleaner and easier for people to retire...

    Disney , please don't do this...

    I respectfully disagree... His ability to listen to others alone demonstrates a degree of business sense few have.

    Disney , please don't do this...

    Thank you. I have grown so tired of everyone knowing what Walt would do. Walt was many things, including a shrewd businessman, and he had a team of very shrewd/brilliant businessmen behind him. The only thing I am sure of is that Walt, today, would be a superior spokesperson than Disney's...

    More advance planning on the way

    I suppose I should be prepared to hear how 3 scheduled bathroom breaks are more than enough for me and how wonderful it will be to be able to schedule my bathroom time in advance. I suppose I should start training myself to hold it in case I want to park hop. I wonder which bathrooms will...
