Very possibly, it is expected to begin testing in the next couple of weeks, with an announcement likely at D23, so it is certainly a possibility thats what the call center were being briefed on.

Well, isn't Walt's place supposed to be more like a club for adult entertainment at Disney Springs? Maybe they could have Chip N Dales?

That's amazing! Will it only be available in the park or will you be able to order online?

No idea. I hope it's available online.

Was there an outside group(s) that put pressure on Disney to make this change?

As far as I know, the changes at Pirates of the Caribbean was not the result of any outside group pressuring Disney.

Looks like the Disney Uber may not be Chevrolet but instead a Honda Odyssey. It will be on display at D23. This video released by Disney...

That's so cute! I hope they really use those but I kind of doubt they would have s fleet of them. Maybe without the ears but they are awesome.

Yep, or your just giant family who've all bought in together and get along so great. I am a part of neither so I can't relate. I'll take my regular studio, but lots in my same boat.

I've stayed in grand villas twice at OKW. It really is amazing to have that much room with 7 people on vacation.

I'm happy for you for real, I just don't know 5 other people I would willingly vacation with

The first time was me DW, DS15 who was 5 at the time, my mother and stepfather and my mother in law and father in law. My parents got the room and my father in law paid for everything else. FREE DISNEY . The second time was me, DW, DS15 who was 13 at the time, DS6 who was 4 at the time, my aunt and my aunts boyfriend. That was a last Disney trip for my aunt who had terminal cancer. The second trip was fantastic. The first was really stressful because my FIL spent most of it reminding me how expensive everything was. No one asked him to pay for EVERY LITTLE thing but he wouldn't let anyone else (needless to say we haven't taken the in laws back )Having the square footage to escape to was awesome!

The best way to avoid the "it's sooo expensive" talk is to never let anyone pay for a dime of your household except for a round at a bar.

It's pricey...but easier. I never accept anything from my inlaws (they couldn't care...but it pays for babysitting)...always pay the bill for things I suggest, when we meet up with friends, anything off the grid, etc.

Life is too short for vacation monetary grief...

Yeah that's a big part of it. We can cruise and get our own staterooms far, far away from in the in laws. They'll never know/set foot in our dvc units. No in laws allowed at all. Not even my brother and sister-in-law. They're on the opposite spectrum, don't wanna pay anything for anything and will pinch the penny as far as it goes. That's no fun either.

Using the very thing that he paid big bucks for to escape his "I paid big bucks" talk. BRILLIANT!

That's actually FAR worse...
...my unwavering stance is that if you want to be cheap on travel...there's a super cheap, exotic place you can go: your house.

Barnstormer is Goofy but that was all I could think of

 

[MissGina5]
