    Updated Disney Gift Card Deals and More

    Another DP here... I purchased $75 in DGC and it did NOT trigger my bonus. I waited days and nothing. It just said "progress details are currently unavailable, please try again later" so I was hoping it may have been delayed. I placed an actual merchandise order since I held off in the event...

    Disney's GRAND FLORIDIAN RESORT & SPA Information & Questions + Construction Updates

    You are correct, Sugarloaf does not have theme park view rooms. All the other outer buildings should though. I think GF is one of the easier resorts with the room category changes. garden became resort (inside courtyard/pool/resort facing rooms), lagoon became water (outside facing Seven Seas...

    Here Now & Just Back WDW Reopening Experiences Including Park Hopping

    WDW started implementing this updated system rather than the manual bag check in 2020 with Disney Spring. It then moved to AK and eventually every park. You probably experienced it during your 2021 and/or 2022 trip. The only time a bag is now manually checked is if someone sets off the machine...

    Let's speculate about Polynesian some more!

    I don't think Disney will ever block access to resort dining from outside guests. The Poly DVC kiosk is in a prime spot on your way to Captain Cook's, Trader Sam's, or the stairway to Kona, 'Ohana, and Tambu. If one guest tours the new tower after drinking an "Uh-Oa" Disney will be very happy...

    All About Fixed Weeks (RIV/CCV/AUL/VGF/POLY Charts)

    Are you going to actually use the Favorite Week? Or do you just want it as an insurance policy if/when you sell? If you plan on booking the week yourself anyway with something like banked points I would just lump it together (135 + 15) and get the 150. It won't matter how many points are stuck...

    Ahh yes, that's it! It's true! I did like Shrek so I guess I can say that was something good he did :rotfl2:

    I remember watching Howard on Disney+ when Ashman explained Part of Your World was integral for the audience to understand the storyline following musical theater progression and Katzenberg wanted to cut it numerous times. :sad2:

    I couldn't even tell you WHAT the main song was called. I know they were all singing it at the end, but it just didn't resonate with me.

    That explains why it legit sounded like they were just speaking over music at certain points! They lyrics weren't even good. Poor Ariana DeBose... she does musicals and can actually sing! IDK that Chris Pine is known for his vocals. I think Moana and Encanto both had great soundtracks. Instant...

    Disney News, Discussion & an Element of Fun - 2024 Edition

    I had seen a lot of rumors that the Casita attraction would be an omnimover like Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid, but after the models were shown on Instagram I am seeing "guesses" that it could be like Mystic Manor based on the elevation of Casita? IDK that WDW would invest that...

    Disney News, Discussion & an Element of Fun - 2024 Edition

    I don't want to get too far off topic, but is anyone concerned about Moana 2 going from a Disney+ release to theatrical release and not having Lin Manuel Miranda attached? I watched Wish for the first time this week and wow... those songs were legit terrible. Disney Channel originals have better...

    Ideas for Names for the new Poly

    I love Stitch, but I have a feeling there will be a strong Moana influence considering the splash pad is a manta ray. Tamatoa Tower? I can see the promotional materials now. The brightest thing that glitters on the Seven Seas Lagoon! Just kidding, but I still think the rooms will have a Moana...

    Let's speculate about Polynesian some more!

    I am probably in the minority, but I would be tempted by a Poly Resort Studio (aka hotel room) with 2 dedicated beds.

    Let's speculate about Polynesian some more!

    Poly is definitely further and it's harder to make out structures during the day, but it really shines at night with the fireworks. The position on the lagoon centers the castle best, especially for things like Christmas Party fireworks, 4th of July fireworks, etc. Disney could easily label them...

    Let's speculate about Polynesian some more!

    Could DVC rename the RIV "tower studio" to "duo studio" to keep it in alignment with DLH and Poly? Then have "longhouse deluxe studio" and "tower deluxe studio" for Poly? I'm on team same association now based on all the actions DVC has taken. I would think this is more of a VGF tower and BPK...

    Glad to hear it's coming from multiple places. YES, I was saying the same thing to my family! The theater is close enough to Dinoland that it could be included in the construction projects and drones would be perfect for the animals. I enjoyed the animal floats and music from RoL. I think the...

    Disney News, Discussion & an Element of Fun - 2024 Edition

    I know this is a news thread and not a "rumors" thread, but someone I follow with a pretty good track record said Disney is concerned with the declining AK attendance and there is another E-ticket being planned. It's not approved yet, but the permit for all that Imagineering and construction is...

    April Incentives - What Are Your Predictions?

    Are you paying cash and not financing? You can ask for 90 days to pay it off. As long as your contract(s) don't close DVC can (and has in the past) rewritten contracts with updated pricing. It isn't a guarantee, but it's a possibility.

    April Incentives - What Are Your Predictions?

    I would never want a 250 point contract. I would definitely split it up. Maybe even look into a Favorite Week that is around 150 points just so the 150 RIV contract has a guaranteed room annually if you end up selling it.

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    If you like Beach Club's parking lot distance from the lobby, you will find Yacht Club superior. The valet reserved area is removed from the main parking lot so all the spots as soon as you pull in are for guests. The Convention Center's lot can also be used as overflow and it's on the opposite...
