We have not been to Disney since Jan 2014. We are going in June. We have picked picked 6/21-7/1 for an 8 night/5 park day trip. We might stay onsite, but are likely to stay offsite at bonnet Creek to save money and give the 5 of us(myself, wife, 13yo,10yo,6yo) some space.
1.) I used to be a disney expert, but have not really paid much attention. In 5 years and A LOT has changed. How can I begin studying tips and techniques of the current Disney world reality to best plan a trip for family?
2.) Is touringplans worth a subscription or no?
3.) We are hoping for a BippityBoppityBoutique 8am reservation on the 24th for daughter before park opens (I will call at 180 days out at 7am eat) thoughts on this? If we can't, our backup is disney springs/grand Floridian on nonpark day.
4. We want to rope drop and because we will prob get FPs at 30 days we plan on being at the front of the line each park day to make our first ride a popular attraction (7 dwarves, FoP, Smugglers Run, Soaring. What time should we get to each park?
5. DisneyMovieInsiders - I have A LOT of points. The site has almost no rewards now, but does have $50/$25/$10 off Disney store.com or store. We already used one at the disney store. Does anyone know, can these be used at the disney store at Disney springs? And/ gift shops in the parks?
Thank you for the help
