Oh yes, COP. A personal favorite of mine. There were a total of four Disney attractions at the New York Worlds Fair. Can anyone name the other two?

Everybody forgets the Ford Pavillion's "Magic Skyway" history of the world.

I know The Hall of Presidents was one. Can't think of the other? I'm sure when I hear it I will say Duh. Loved the Worlds Fair as a child. Thanks for sharing.

Actually, back then it was not hall of presidents. It was a solo act called Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. And yes Magic Skyway was the fourth.

One of my favorites DVC secrets, that may not be such a secret. Do you all know that all the bell rooms have storage refrigerators and freezers that will hold all your groceries until you are ready to check into or out of your room.

Has anyone heard any news about JETBLUE moving into McArthur??? There was a lot of news reports last year regarding this, but I have heard no news lately.

When they were talking about this on the news they did a walk thru but they said nothing was etched in stone. And they also said by the earliest they can do a deal and bring them in would be late summer 2013. other then this there was nothing else said yet Sorry . this would be amazing if they have a non stop to MCO I would use them there even tho it would be the further airport but it would also be the easiest airport to

I WISH!!! I am about 7 min from the airport. I know they were trying to get more airlines in there. Southwest seems to be the only one and my husband REFUSES to fly Southwest.

My last dozen flights have been SW. I have never had a problem. I also love flying in and out of Islip. I hop in my car, take a 15 minute drive down Sunrise highway and pull into a parking spot 100 yards away from the checkin counter. I fly them even if its a little more. Some folks are not big fans of the everyman for themselves seating (Southwest does not assign you a seat, you board and look for an available seat) but it works for me. We are flying them into Orlando Saturday morning I can't wait.

I also heard 2013 at the earlier. It boggles my mind that the entire airport only has 2 airlines. Southwest and US Air.

Matt and Denise, Nesconset, newbies to DVC, frequent long time WDW travelers, finally gave in and bought BCV August 2011 (UY Feb 2011). Planning second home resort point purchase once we decide which one.

First BCV trip this coming August (yay!), waitlisted for HH July 4th week. (boo!)

Always trying to eat at different places each trip, except our favorites, of course.
DDP reservations for August (half made today, half on Friday, long story, split trip)
(in order):
Whispering Canyon dinner (1st time)
Ohana Breakfast (every time!)
Wave dinner (love the short ribs! DW's first time)
Boma breakfast (1st time)
Planet Hollywood dinner
Fresh Mediterranean Market breakfast (1st time)
Beaches and Cream lunch (1st time, no ressie, just going)
Cape May Cafe breakfast (for our three DDs - 12, 9, 6, they still love it)
Kouzzina dinner (1st time for dinner, love the breakfast)
Le Cellier Lunch (1st time)
Boma dinner (1st time dinner)
Les Chefs de france dinner (1st time, hopefully Remy time)

+ assorted quick-service, in room, "off campus" trips to Sweet Tomatoes (the kids love it and it keeps total costs down a bit)

Been lurking the boards a bit over the past few months, finally jumped in (as my post count shows). Hope to become very seasoned and well traveled on these boards. Knowledge is power, especially if it saves a few bucks and makes the trips easier and finds us some hidden secrets and gems.

See you all around!

Matt

And for my contribution to our shared knowledge, here's an idea. If you haven't been doing it, I highly recommend making a nice bound book of photos to document each trip. So much nicer than just putting photos on your computer never to be found. I use Blurb.com, but there are tons out there. It's so easy to customize pages and captions and really make a special keepsake that will last! It comes out so much better than you can imagine.

No problem. My DH worked for Delta for 10 years. So he has trust issues with any other airline. He also refused to fly jetBlue citing that he didn't like the AirBus 320, that it wasn't a good plane. Well, fast forward to Delta buying Northwest and guess what airplanes they now fly...AIRBUSES!!!! So I have now gotten him to fly JetBlue and he kind of enjoyed it. I'm working on him and Southwest.

It is real funny , i have never been there in a very long time USMC days over 20 years ago . and a year ago I went to pick up a friend comming up from FLA and I was amazed how easy it was to get in and out of there hoping if and when Jet Blue might come in that they can keep prices low

The Disney Store near me in the Sunrise mall, Massapequa actually was closed. I (not in a cynical way) was almost happy by this. I only like to see Disney merchandise and Disney cast members wearing Disney name badges in the parks and resorts, not down the block from my house. Its a feeling that I only get when I am on vacation at WDW. You know the feeling you get when you drive through the gates of WDW and you feel like a kid again. I don't need or want a Disney experience on Sunrise highway at the mall. And I am by no means insensitive by the way, to those who lost their jobs.

 

[pinnocchiosdad]

It is the eve of yet another WDW trip. The excitement has already set in, the golf and dining reservations have been made. My bags are packed. But my thoughts are a bit saddened by something I read yesterday. Snow whites scary adventure is closing March 31st. I don't like change. ESPECIALLY at Fantasyland in the Magic Kingdom. This ride was (is) a classic. I believe it was there when the park opened in 1971.This is also one of the few remaining attractions that was operational on Disneyland's opening day in 1955. I go to WDW to bring me back to the days of my youth. I love walking down the same paths with my wife and children that I walked on with my parents and siblings when I was a child. To see a piece of the park become only a memory is sad. The ride will be replaced by a princess meet and greet, a chance for the park to sell more Disney merchandise. Other rides have closed over the years and some have changed over the years for in my opinion for the worse (The Tiki Room). They comercialise them based on current movies to make a profit (I am a DIS shareholder so I understand the business angle). If its not broken, don't fix it. I don't think Fantasyland was broken. God help them if they lay a hand on The Small World Ride.
