    I've never minded paying for what I perceive as value, but I hate feeling like I haven't paid enough

    For that kind of money you might as well enjoy a full day at Universal PLUS one night accommodations.

    First full week of December crowds

    This timeframe has been our go-to time to visit WDW. 2013/2017/2020, crowds have always been mild, never felt that the parks were super crowded. Of course we purposely avoid going when heavy crowds are the norm so we personally can't compare to what it's like during other times. But based on...

    Arbitrary and Nonsensical Park Hopping Limits

    Not sure if they will ever go back to fully unlimited park hopping. We bought PH tickets in Feb 2020 for our Nov/Dec 2020 trip so we were fully impacted by no PH at the time of our trip. Since we got our tickets though a 3rd party we weren't able to even get a full refund on the PH portion of...

    Magical Express Ending Service

    I'm thankful that we went this past Nov/Dec before these changes take hold. We usually only go every 3-4 years anyway and by the time we MIGHT consider going again things may be so different that it will be hard to compare to previous trips. Compared to our first big trip in Dec 2013 and our...

    Rant: Please please please wear your mask on rides or you will ruin it for everyone

    I can't argue with that sentiment, however Disney deleting pictures because of a missing mask is just as childish IMHO. If Disney is gonna treat guests like children don't be upset when they react like children.

    Rant: Please please please wear your mask on rides or you will ruin it for everyone

    Maybe you missed where I said 99.9% of people do.

    No PhotoPass ride photos?

    That isn't the reason many of our rides photos never appeared. We were a larger group so we pretty much had exclusively family in all ride vehicles, everyone adhered to the mask rules, and still several times photos just never appeared, but we didn't have the time to run down the missing photos...

    Rant: Please please please wear your mask on rides or you will ruin it for everyone

    My son had his mask blow off on Jurassic Park at UO a few days before we went to WDW earlier this month. Luckily he caught it so he didn't lose it, and we still got the picture. My personal opinion is that WDW has been way over the top being heavy handed with their ride photo policy to the...

    Animal Kingdom Rope drop

    Is your goal to be in the park 45 minutes BEFORE official open (like the first people in the park) or just to be there in time to take advantage of being their early? We stayed at Kidani Village recently (so we're closer to AK) and we just took the bus, got in the park almost 30 minutes before...

    Can you remove guests from an ADR?

    Don't bother removing folks. We had two ADRs for Oga's on 12/2, a party of 7 and a party of 4 to account for our total group of 11. But 3 folks were unable to make it so it ended up being a 5/3 split instead. No worries, the just combined us all together into a single party of 8 and sat us at...

    Which MK Attractions Usually Open Early?

    Back on the Sun after Thanksgiving for a 9am opening we planned to do Splash first and as we walked past Jungle Cruise around 8:40am it was still not letting people on yet, but Pirates was open so we did that first then over to Splash which was already a 25min wait by the time we got in line...

    Future of buffets?

    I agree. I too find it funny that some people are petrified of touching what others have touched. Is this the adult version of cooties??? The human body has an immune system for a reason, there is a reason people get more sick nowadays, they try to protect themselves from everything so their...

    Here Now & Just Back WDW Reopening Experiences Including Park Hopping

    We were at WDW the exact same time frame as you and didn't have quite as short lines as you experienced but I agree that the crowds were manageable and I don't feel like we waited an excessive amount for any particular attraction. We could have been more strict with our touring plan to really...

    Party of 10 with 5 and 5 split reservations

    We were a group of 10 for our recent trip (11/28-12/5) and had split dining RSVPs for groups of 7 and 3 for BOG, GG (only 8 people here), LTT, and Oga's. When we checked in for all 4 places we spoke to the cast members at each place and explained our situation and each time they were able to...

    Fastest route to Wizarding Worlds

    This. We rode Hagrids via Early Entry on 11/25 and 11/26, each time we got into the park between 7:30am and 7:45am (early hr started at 7am) Just follow all the people to the right and the staff will direct you, you truly can't go wrong. Line moved pretty steady both mornings for us and was a...

    Universal App - Show Reservations?

    I know for park tickets you can link them via the Wallet section in the Universal App. But I never checked for room reservation info or dining reservations info in the app. The only dining reservation we had was for Toothsome and I had called to book due to our party size and I got direct txt...

    How to best maximize a 2 day experience?

    We just did a 3-day (2-night) stay at UO on the front-end of our WDW trip. We were at UO on Wed/Thur/Fri Thanksgiving week. We stayed at RPR for 2 nights to get the early access AND the unlimited Express Passes. Our arrival night we stayed at a cheaper hotel nearby then woke up early to go...
