    Pack and Play in Bathroom - GF Studio vs Poly Studio

    Awesome news! We plan on not using that side after we put him to bed and use the sink in the wet bar if we need to wash hands/brush teeth after his bed time!

    Pack and Play in Bathroom - GF Studio vs Poly Studio

    Hey Everyone, My wife and I are planning to take our (then) 15 month old to Disney World next October. He will still be in a crib/pack and play and we are debating between a studio at GF and a studio at the Poly. I know the provided pack and play fits in the studio bathroom at the Poly, but...

    Magic Bands Upgrade

    Honestly, I'd rather them hold the bands at the resort so I don't have to worry about forgetting them. The reason they aren't shipped is I believe the RFID technology inside the band may be export controlled (but I'm not sure). Either way, the paperwork and customs declarations probably make...

    Magic Bands Upgrade

    It may be programmed not to accept Disney resort zip codes. I imagine they have their own zip code for routing mail to a central delivery place (this is how our Univeristy that I work at does - we have our own zip code and all USPS mail is routed to our central receiving building). We are not...

    Magic Bands Upgrade

    I will say I was expecting the entire range to be available including the new solid colors and the limited edition bands so this is somewhat of a disappointment. Luckily the one I want is 30% off at ShopDisney.com and I have an additional code for 30% off so it's only $15 (which is the price it...

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    No worries! I think they were only 10% off or around that based on what I could calculate. The TA I’ve worked with is quite knowledgeable so I highly doubt she is incorrect regarding ticket upgrades, but I’ve never tried with these tickets so I thought I would double check with the expert...

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    Hi @Robo - quick question that I haven’t seen a recent answer to so I thought I’d ask. I’ve got a 4 Day MYW Park Hopper w/ 1 WPF & More entitlement. My travel agent says these can be upgraded to AP’s, which is what we’d like to do on our September trip this year. I wanted to confirm that yes...

    Anyone done Keys to the Kingdom AND Backstage Magic tours?

    I've done both of the tours on the same trip - they were both awesome. Backstage Magic was a better tour in my opinion. The trip to central shops is worth the ticket price.

    Not Loading Express Beam at TTC

    Currently at TTC - just left EPCOT and trying to close down MK. Went up the express beam line and they aren’t loading it - just unloading and sending it back to the MK. They have four monorails (red, yellow, and two others) on the beam, but they’re unloading only - funneling everyone else to the...

    Club 33 pricing announced-open to Golden Oaks residents first

    When your club cost more than, and is is easier to get a membership to than Augusta National, there’s a problem. No perks at Disney are worth a $40,000 initial investment.

    Saturday after Thanksgiving...Were you in the parks today??

    Animal kingdom was packed today. Had dinner at Flying Fish and went to EPCOT afterwords and rode Test Travk single rider with about a five minute wait (at 9:15ish). Didn’t go to the other parks. Hollywood Studios and EPCOT were packed yesterday. Went to EPCOT in the AM and then to Hollywood...

    Flying Fish Discount into 2018?

    Our meal there in February was the second best we’ve ever had on property (a very close second to our California Grill meal we had this Thursday). Tonight’s repeat was just so-so. My mussels were excellent but my steak was a bit chewy and fatty. However, it wasn’t bad and was well flavored. I...

    Flying Fish Discount into 2018?

    Rule of thumb is you don’t cook with anything you wouldn’t drink. Also, if you pride yourself on your wine list, then yes, for me it does matter. I don’t expect to drop $125 on dinner without drinks and get served a meal cooked in boxed wine. Maybe my standards are too high.

    Flying Fish Discount into 2018?

    Well if they keep the discount, they’ll probably keep using boxed wine (Franzia) for cooking like they did tonight. I’m not a snob, but in a restaurant serving $200 bottles of wine, should they really be cooking with box wine?

    Disney's POLYNESIAN VILLAGE RESORT Information & Questions

    We just left Trader Sam’s. There are Christmas drinks, but we didn’t try them. Also, apparently they no longer offer a discount for not getting the drinks in the souvenir glasses. For some reason, I thought they did (but maybe I made that up).

    Gift card for declining Mousekeeping

    Checked into POFQ today. On the way down we received a phone call asking if we wanted a gift card for $10/night. That is down from the $15/night we were offered in August. We declined as we are only here three nights before moving resorts and for $20, I’d rather them clean the room.
