Hi Going to Disney mid-August and have read that Fastpasses sometimes run out by early afternoon. Don't want to trudge across a park in the heat only to get to a ride to find a long standby queue and no more FPs. Is there anyway to find out whether the FPs have gone for the day other than...

Are the lockers free near Kraken and Journey to Atlantis or do you need some money? If so, does anyone know what coins we need? Don't want to store stuff all day - just while we do the rides. Thnaks for your help.

Thnaks for the info. We might even arrange for a internet grocery delivery if this is the case.

Hi Is it true that you automatically get a fridge (as well as the expensive minibar) in your room for free? You used to have to put in a special request and pay $10 per night and I cannot believe that Disney now gives this for free! We are staying at YC in August and it will be a great...

Hi Staying at the Yacht Club during August. We will want to visit the Future World part of Epcot at park opening. The most convenient way of getting to Epcot is by walking to the International Gateway. However, I am worried that the 'early bird' advantage will be lost since the crowds who...

I have heard that the air-con is really fierce in some of the TS dining places at WDW. Would anyone recommend that we take some extra clothing to the parks or resorts just for that? Are any places worse than other? Going in Aug and want to travel as light as poss.

Has anyone tried getting their grocery order (breakfast bars, fruit, drinks etc) via an on-line order? Would be interested to know how it worked out. Do you have to actually be at the hotel when it is delivered or can it just be left at reception? Can you specifiy exactly when it can be...

Can anyone suggest a good plan for Blizzard Beach. We will be there for just two hours at park opening (including EMH) and don't know in which order we should do the slides. We are not intereted in the lazy river or sunbathing. Thnak you

Hi Want to book a FDP @ HBD in Aug when show starts @ 8:30. Can anyone suggest a good time to book the meal. We don't really know how long we should allow for eating at this restaurant. Thank you

Hi Had similar easy experience. Obtained 12 days worth of ADRs for late August. I got every single time I wanted except for the first day when I asked for a 2pm (which I thought would be an unpopular slot) reservation at Akershus and was shoved back to 2:20pm. I guess this place is buzzing...

Hi The guide books (and occasionally on DIS) comment on the fact that you have to eat dinner way too early (kind of mid-afternoon) on the Fantasmic Dinner Package. They also say that Disney releases the better time slots just a few weeks before. Well.... I just booked August for 17:30 when...

When the afternoon storms roll in do the parks delay the start of a parade or do they just cancel. Also what about the fireworks. Are some more likely to be affected than others?

Is is actually possible to watch the afternoon parade and book the Fantasmic Dinner Package? Or do they always clash? Going in Aug when Fantasmic starts @ 8:30 and the parade is at 5pm. Presumably it would mean eating at Brown Derby before 3pm or shortly after 5:30pm Do such slots exist...

Gude books make a lot of remarks such as "if you only have time to do one Signature Dining experience... choose CG

Thinking of going to Citricos for an early dinner about 6 or 7pm, instead of the famed CG. Are we mad to do this?!! Pollite answers only please!!

Guide books seem to suggest that the conventional wisdom of arriving at park opening may not be the best strategy for a water park. The logic seems to be that many folks leave early afternoon and an afternoon thunderstorm send many more home. We want to visit Blizzard Beach mid-August for...

Thanks for your replies. It seemed just too good to be true. I guess I'll just have to drag the whole party along!!!

We are a family of four. When we are all in a park together we always get four Fastpass tickets even if some of us don't want to go on a particular attraction. This means that occasionally some of us get to ride twice in succession!! This is legal, right? So how about this.... Two people...

Hi Planning a trip next August. I know lots of people follow the: arrive early, return to hotel in afternoon, parks in evening plan, but as a family we are used to going to bed early and the late finish/early rise stuff impossible to stick to. Also you have to make two sets of journeys each...
