    Dining options for a newbie

    I would just do quick service on your Epcot day. There are SO MANY delicious options in World Showcase, and the food at Coral Reef really is mediocre and expensive. The only real perk to have a TS on an Epcot day is that it can be blistering hot in that park (idk why, but it honestly seems to...

    Sci Fi seat size

    I believe there are some tables towards the back of the restaurant that have traditional chairs instead of the bench-style seating. It looks like some are still "in" the car, but face sideways, and others are designed to look like picnic tables. I found some photos on TripAdvisor, so maybe you...

    Not sure if it still works, but their website has an email address - you could try to send them a message and see what they say! WDW.Victoria.and.Alberts@disney.com

    nassau and castaway cay excursions/port adventures?

    You might consider snorkeling at Castaway Cay before doing anything else. We were one of the first ones in the water on our last cruise and had a wonderful time, but we noticed that the water had gotten pretty cloudy later in the day from the all the people swimming. If you bring your own...

    Jaleo

    Chef Jose Andres, who owns Jaleo, is also a wonderful human who has provided many, many meals to people affected by natural disasters through his non-profit World Central Kitchen. So you can enjoy delicious food and know that it's supporting someone who is dedicated to giving back to others!

    Reef Safe Sunscreen for cruise

    I really like Coola's mineral sunscreen, and I don't think it has any of those sneaky chemicals (we've been using Alba Botanicals for years and now I feel bad!). I recently found some online from Sierra for a really deep discount, and it wasn't expired or anything. I've also used Stream2Sea...

    Health care workers visiting Disney

    I started this thread and then forgot to check back! Thanks everyone for your kind words; I feel so much better about visiting in a way that's compliant with the COVID rules!

    Health care workers visiting Disney

    Hi DisFam! Please feel free to delete or move if this is in the wrong place, but I tried to search for this answer and couldn't find it. DH and I are both vaccinated (yay!) and are considering a trip in late spring, but I was just looking on the WDW website and saw one of the conditions in the...

    Refund to a prepaid visa

    Have they processed the refund yet? I'd just call them and see if you can get it put on a different card.

    Your least favorite Disney sit-down restaurant

    We wanted to like Coral Reef since we both love aquatic life and aquariums, but we found the service to be pretty mediocre during both of our meals there. It was like they kept forgetting about us, which I could imagine because that place gets busy! The menu also felt quite limited compared to...

    Snorkel gear question

    Do you have a dive shop nearby? I wasn't really sure what to get for my first set of snorkeling gear, and they were really helpful in providing guidance.

    any advise on doing kennedy space center before or after a cruise?

    We did KSC after disembarking, taking the shuttle to the rental car place, and renting a car. We had our car by 7:57 am (I always take a picture of our rentals in case of damage claims, and I still had that one on my phone with a timestamp!) and were at KSC right around the time they opened...

    Does anyone else go alcohol-free in WDW?

    As long as they keep making those Tipsy Ducks in Love, I'll keep drinking them! :drinking1

    Autistic 3 year old twins... how do we do this?

    I think a lot of 3 year olds are a little shy around characters, so the characters and handlers are probably pretty used to this. Honestly, I'd just say "our boys are a little shy and prefer to stay back/get a high-five/wave/whatever," but overall, these CMs seem to be very good at taking cues...

    Medical injections?

    I've heard that you can ask Mousekeeping for a sharps container if you're staying on site. The folks on the DISabilities board might have more insight!

    Best way to get to Atlantis' casino?

    There are certain areas that require a paid wrist band, including the aquariums, but any place you can spend money (shopping and the casino) are free to enter.

    Best way to get to Atlantis' casino?

    I second what a PP mentioned about the taxis being shared. On our way to Atlantis, we were in a van with maybe 5 or 6 other people. On the way back, I think we (me and DH) may have been by ourselves, but if so, I think that's just because we left at an unpopular time. I imagine it's not very...

    What's the most you've paid per person for one meal?

    I totally get what you’re saying! My DH surprised me with V&A to celebrate our anniversary but prior to that, we used to gently poke fun at the “snooty” people who must eat there. We’re not wealthy but we decided to save in some areas and splurge in others. There were definitely years that no...

    What's the most you've paid per person for one meal?

    How was it? We live close-ish but V&A has ruined us, apparently. We ate at Volt in Frederick for my 30th birthday, and while it was a lovely evening, it was not quite up to the standards of V&A (but was close in price).

    How does a first timer even begin to plan?

    I agree with this, but I also think TS can be really valuable opportunities to sit in the air conditioning for a little while. It could be very hot in May (our May trip a few years ago had real feel temps above 110F). Plus, there is less hustle and bustle, so we use TS meals as a break rather...
