    New free dining offer yeaaah

    &*#@! blackout dates. Not to mention ever increasing rates. Disney is going to have to come down from that high horse in this economy. Oh well, a cheap cruise is looking good.

    Crowd Levels - Just back from Disney

    Agreed. No way those were '6' rating days. I'm surprised this is not a larger issue right now on the DIS. This was the first year we drove to Disney, so we were able to use the car around and about. HUGE advantage not having to wait on the buses, boats, and monorail with crowds this high...

    Crowd Levels - Just back from Disney

    WOW. First off, let me say we did have fun. It's still Disney and it's all what you make of it. Crowd Levels: ENORMOUS Those Disney promotions must be working. I realize this is the start of spring break season, but we've been there many times during this same time period and I have...

    Mickey Call - are they doing it this year

    OK, it finally worked. On the follow up call, I pushed 2 right after answering the phone (didn't wait for any instructions, etc.). Mickey's voice came on immediately. Hope this helps. Merry Christmas!

    Mickey Call - are they doing it this year

    Didn't work for us. Phone rings precisely at the time entered. 'Please gather the family around and wait for a special message from Mickey Mouse! Press 2 when ready.' ...... click. 'If you'd like to make a call......' :sad2:

    2009 DDP changes?

    Here's my prob. with the current plan involving the tip. I like to pay this in advance so there is nothing to exchange at the meal. I would not even mind paying a bit more up front if Disney would include the Gratuity back in there. Why not have a DDP+ that includes appetizer, dessert, and...

    I refuse to pay 18-20% gratuity for a buffet

    It's bad enough the dining plan excludes gratuity now, but to suggest I'm forking over that much of a tip for someone who does nothing but refill a glass is a bit much, IMO. Why even have servers for this? I'm mainly speaking of character meals. Put the drinks out on the island and forget the...

    How are the crowds?

    We just got back yesterday and I thought the crowds were fairly light.

    Some posted about how horrible POR was

    Hi Andre, No problem, happy to help! Your page is excellent. Here is the direct link from speedtest. It seems to have dropped just a tad from my last post, but still EXCELLENT transfer rates. /pez

    Some posted about how horrible POR was

    We are at POR right now and it's been fantastic thus far. Of course having a room in Magnolia Terrace directly behind the East Depot bus stop helps a ton. :thumbsup2 One thing I can comment on is the broadband internet here is VERY GOOD. I'm not sure if Disney has improved this at every...

    Making the most of Counter Service

    Who has the better counter service meals in the parks/resorts? I hear Pepper Market @ Coronado a lot. Going to try it this time around. Others?

    Is there a new 800 number?

    I don't see this as a major issue for the customer. Can you imagine the costs that Disney has to pay for every call into those lines? As said earlier, a cell phone is the best option.

    Why is POR's Magnolia Terrace mansion the most popular?

    Sorry for the question within the thread, but what is the best way to request a certain building? The reservation line? We'll be at POR May 10-17 TIA.

    Just Switched from WL to Poly - HELP!!

    I have stayed at both the past 2 years. They are both excellent. However, the Poly is the ultimate Disney stay for our family. Being able to access both the resort monorail and the Epcot monorail with a quick walk over to the TTC is next level. You're gonna love it. :thumbsup2

    Bounce Back - Do they still do it & how does it work?

    It appears those dates are blacked out. We'll be traveling to POR May 10-17 and were hoping for a bounceback for October 15-19 (school fall break here). :sad2:

    How does Disney determine who gets the 40%?

    Just curious. We were are the Poly last fall with free dining and were thinking about a May trip this year. I haven't received a card or email. :sad1:
