Disney News, Discussion & an Element of Fun - 2022 Edition

I can tell you we are paying less than that next month on DELTA with really good seats over the wings on a direct flight that's coming all the way from LAX. Heck, I could upgrade to Comfort+ (step below first) and only barely hit that threshold right now.

Prices for 2 adults and 1 child, I maxed the travel time at 8 hours (which is still meltdown territory for DD), non stop travel time is under 3 hours. I just have to hope in the next week or two prices either come way down or they add more flights.

To be clear, I wasn't saying I didn't believe you, just that I was SHOCKED (and still am). That's insane

Ah, gotcha, so hard to tell by text alone. SW had around 10 flights that day and now they are down to 2 , that's a lot of displaced travelers especially if other airlines cut flights that day as well. I'm still a bit in shock myself.

New Complimentary Annual Passholder Magnet Coming to Disney Springs

According to BlogMickey.com sources, Disney will be rolling out a new Annual Passholder magnet soon to Disney Springs. While details about the magnet such as the design remain a secret, Disney is expected to reveal the magnet soon along with details on where in Disney Springs Annual Passholders will be able to obtain the magnet.

Not holding my breath about getting this as the last two that we’re supposed to be mailed (orange bird and the updated logo) never got and the last in person one (the flower and garden Donald) was only available weekdays before 4pm at animal kingdom about a month after reopening (and for the week 2020’s F&G festival ran pre closure)

Call them!! I did not get the Tinker Bell magnet, called to let them know, and they sent one right out!

Oh yeah I really want to try sanaa, gonna try for lunch the Saturday we are there since thats a resort day!!

Lunch would be a better choice than dinner, only because it will be light so there's a good chance you'll see animals out and about while you dine! We had dinner there, and it was dark by the time we ate.

If you're driving to Animal Kingdom, there is a McDonald's on the way that's open at 6am.

There are also Perkins, IHOP, Chick-Fil-A, Burger King, Starbucks, Dunkin' and Wendy's just a minute away that are all open by 6am. We're planning that for our AK day.

No car, that's the problem, otherwise I'd go off site to get something!

Was this just all of a sudden changed or just a reminder to people that it is different than normal this week? It would be terrible if they changed it the day of...especially considering the park reservations are already full right now so you couldn't switch.

They're really bigging up the bar aren't they? As a non-drinker, looking at these photos it seems that the only thing for adults to do is drink or supervise kids shooting things from the flight deck
