    Not excited for this trip at all…

    The app doesn’t even open to the park you are in. Every time I opened it to check the tip board for wait times it defaulted to Magic Kingdom. Even with location services fully on it couldn’t open to the right park. I thought Disney should have done that better since I know they know where I am!

    Not excited for this trip at all…

    I am one of those who just gets frustrated standing in long standby lines that don't move because the LL people get priority. Even more frustrated when I paid for Genie + but all the options were gone after I made my 2nd selection at 11 am. So I didn't think genie+ was an improvement and...

    Hagrid’s Motorbike Ride

    We were there Weds/Thurs (Thanksgiving) and there was no virtual queue. Standby line snaked all the way out of Hogsmeade toward Mythos.

    We have had the same experience this week.

    Genie+ clarification

    I would also be aware that both iLL$ and LL are limited. This week was busy and I was unable to ever purchase an iLL$ option because they were sold out before offsite guests had access and I was not able to make LL selections after my 2nd option ( made one at 7am and one at 11am — 2 hrs after...

    Totally Frustrated with wait times calling Disney!

    Have done both this week—universal is NO better. Didn’t try to call but long lines at guest services and plenty of staffing issues there too.

    Genie Plus, a must for busy days.

    We have been here as off site guests during this very busy week. Genie plus was essentially worthless. I overslept by 10 min on our Epcot day and all the LL were already gone or at evening return times before 7:30 am. Frozen was gone before I was eligible. The Remy queue was unavailable to me...

    Genie Plus, a must for busy days.

    Can vouch for Navi on Sunday—wait was actually longer than posted. We entered first thing in the am when it was posted at 60 and waited 90. Waited 60 for Safari. 45 for Everest. 60 for Dinosaur and over 80 for FOP at park closing. We rode them all but it took 12 hours to do it and no shows or...

    Christmas Week less busy than normal?

    There is ZERO social distancing happening here this week. Disney is at least requiring masks indoors. We did universal too and it has been so crowded I masked outside too. So. Many. People.

    Is buying the express pass necessary?

    We have done Universal the past 2 days with wall to wall crowds. No express pass. Wait times have still overall been shorter than posted. FJ was posted at 80 min, we were off in 55. Minions posted at 80 we waited 60. Gringotts posted at 100 min this am and we waited every torturous bit of that...

    I honestly don’t think they care. They are raking in the money with super crowded parks this week. If you want to complain go wait in the 2 hour line for guest services? We made some memories this trip but we aren’t coming back any time soon. It has become so crowded and such an expensive...

    Num Num Cookie vs. Gideon's Chocolate Chip Cookie

    There was over a 2 hour wait outside of Gideons both times we were at Disney Springs this week. They must be good?

    Is it possible nothing available??

    We are here now—did Epcot on Tuesday and despite having checked daily for the full 60 days prior never found a reservation in the park. We did mobile order quick service instead. Having looked at many of the restaurants as we were there on Tuesday this very busy Thanksgiving week I can say half...

    Which standby lines most affected by Genie+?

    The Pandora rides at AK were definitely impacted. We waited 90 min for Navi (posted at 50) and well over an hour post park closing for FOP. Peter Pan and Jungle Cruise and Pooh definitely affected too.

    Wait times with no Genie+ or LL

    No. The lightening lanes bring the standby lanes to a near standstill for rides with a merge point. The standby riders get held at the merge point and the lightening lane riders get to go.

    Have You Ever Had To Confront Another Guest's Poor Behavior?

    A mom in line for the Safari at AK on Sunday let her 4-5 yo son pee in the line on a tree right by the path. Everyone around her objected and she just laughed.

    Not excited for this trip at all…

    The 7 am thing is real. I am here and overslept by 10 min on our Epcot day—ended up not even buying Genie+ because everything was sold out or too late already and it wasn’t even 7:30 am yet. We did not get to ride Frozen (iLL sold out before I could make one as a no resort guest) or Ratatouille...

    It was over $90 for us and we also got only 2 rides.

    This. Didn’t even bother with Genie plus at Epcot on Tuesday because test track return was at 9pm by 7:30 am, Soarin was already at 2 pm and none of the others really matter. I couldn’t book an iLL for Frozen because I wasn’t a resort guest and they were sold out by the time I could—and the...

    Disney Rewards Card ?

    Is it possible to pay for parking with a Disney Rewards Card (using rewards from Disney Visa?). Also is there a way to add it as a payment source to the MDE app? We have points to use and I would like to use them for Genie+ or ILL rides too.
