Those Travelling this week!

[Pumpkin1172]

For those of you in Disney this past week...I hope you have a fan-frigging-tastic time

I have been watching and taking notes for the past few months about availability of LL and genie+ availability at various times of the day.

Those of you who are in Florida right now...OMG...I haven't seen that availability - even the last couple of days and today....that there was availability for purchasing...and the wait times!!!! Not much over 75 minutes. I checked my tip board today...and seen a slinky dog genie+ at 1:00 Florida time. Mark your calendars for next year..because this would be the week to go!!!!

Even today at 1:00 LL available - 7DMT & FOP Genie+ soooo many good ones at MK and even many good ones at HS (Milinium falcome, M&M, Rocking Roller Coaster. I was shocked for a Friday.

Going next Friday, I hope those numbers hold out!

12 more days! 13 until I can ride GOTG …hopefully multiple times.

Well we arrive on the 21st and they extended all the hours to open earlier and close later so I’m bracing myself for heavy crowds. BUT .. I am truly so happy to be going back after 2.5 years of uncertainty. I just plan to enjoy myself no matter what.

i have been watching this week too and slinky as been available after 8:30am sometimes. though i did watch a you tuber who showed a LL that was crazy long so maybe they are releasing more passes but yhen you wait in a longer line…which defeats the purpose really. who knows but it definitely changed these last few days.

Shhhhh! This has always been my favourite week to be at Disney. Great weather and low crowds because the US schools aren't out for the year yet.

I am as green as a jelly bean for those of you who have upcoming trips!!!!! I would really love to have a trip coming up.

I am finding myself daydreaming of another trip (anywhere really) but would truly love to have one more family trip to Disney/Universal. Spring has not arrived here yet, and it's a cold, windy, rain/snowy mix Mother's Day weekend. This is definitely NOT the way I wanted to spend this weekend.

Just checked wait times and availability and soooooooooooooo many great LL and genie+ still available on a Saturday at 12:00 in the parks.

Edited to add:
It is actually mind blowing. When we went in February, the parks were extremely busy and trying to use Genie+ in HS was impossible and wait times for all the top tier rides were close to 3 hrs all day. We enjoyed our one day in HS (it was the only park we visited) but we didn't get to ride nearly what I thought we could fit in. The only other ride I wanted to go on was TOT...but at a three hour wait, I was willing to let that one go. We did luck out and get into the line ROTR and our wait was just short of 2 hours - even with 2 periods of the ride breaking down. I wasn't leaving the park without riding that one. And it was just dh and I on our trip...no kids.

Good time to be at Disneyland this week, too! A friend of a friend is there and so many rides, including Splash Mountain and Webslingers barely have lines and are walk ons!

I don't know much about disneyland unfortunately. We have been invited to go along with dh's family to Disneyland in late Aug. We are still tossing the idea around, as we had wanted to do one last trip to Florida, but I feel like our boys (21+19) would enjoy Universal much more than Disney - hence Florida. I know Universal Florida would be our choice as both boys are thrill seekers and would enjoy the coasters in Florida. So many things to think about lol.

Disneyland is awesome for older kids too. They have some much more adventurous rides there.

Excuse my ignorance, but how are you checking the LL and genie+ availability?

Excuse my ignorance, but how are you checking the LL and genie+ availability?

By using the Disney Genie Service on the MDE app...then clicking the tip board. It loads all the wait times, LL and Genie+ availability.
NOTE:
This is did NOT work for me until we were on US ground. So I didn't have long to "play" around with it for our one park day. Now that we are home, I can still look at all the parks and availability.
