    Everything Virtual Queue - Please Read Posts 1 and 2

    Yes. I did it on a few days last week. On the Good to Go days I had the option to join either of the virtual queues at 7am. I secured a GoTG VQ, but then started my day at HS. On the one day that required a park reservation I could only join the GoTG VQ with an Epcot park reservation.

    On Line Check-In

    I know it’s been discussed many times here. It doesn’t matter if you do online check in or not. Your room will be assigned at least a week out by the room assigners for each resort. Online check in just gives you the ability to go straight to your room. Walking up to the desk when you get to...

    Candlelight Processional - When To Line Up?

    Was at the 5:15 Brendan Fraser show yesterday. Two girls were seated in the standby line at 9:00am when I walked by. I had dining, but still got in line at 3:45. They started to let us in just after 4:30. My hint is to go to the far side of the theater from where you enter for the dining...

    "Official" 2023 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Let's Get Spooky!

    We went to an MNSSHP in August 2021 that was a total washout. No parade; closed outdoor attractions until 11:00pm. We were able to get fully refunded when I went to City Hall the next day. Took about 5 minutes.

    Swan vs dolphin

    The Swan has queen beds. The Dolphin has double beds. The Swan is smaller. They share the same bus transportation. The sit a few hundred feet across from each other, so dining is basically the same.

    Go for MNSSHP only?

    And we had a MNSSHP in 2021 that was rained out with outdoor rides closed for most of the night. I went to Guest Services in MK the next day and got a full refund with a 0 minute wait.

    That is true. Wanna Get Away Early Bird comes last in the 36 hour assignments. First comes Anytime, then Wanna Get Away Plus, then Wanna Get Away.

    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    I had the breakfast buffet this morning at Rosa Mexicano’s At the Dolphin. I have to say I highly recommend. The food was top notch quality, as was the service. A buffet where they take your omelet order at the table, as well as your bread (toast, English muffin, bagel). Mickey waffles...

    David's DVC Polynesian Question

    We rented Poly points in the fall from David’s at about 7 months out. I checked my emails. It was booked within 2 days of the request. The only two places I’ve had difficulty booking are the BWV standard view and anything at Riviera.

    Longest time between disney visits?

    We went as a big family in 1984 and 1986. Then didn't return until there were kids in the immediate family in 2016. So that was a 30 year gap.

    A current point of reference. The last two days (Tuesday/Wednesday) I was able to get a boarding group after park hopping to Epcot at 2:00pm. Both days the boarding group was called right before 6pm. And also both days it was a walk on straight into the first preshow room. Got to do it 4 days...

    A point of reference for anyone with a companion fare and no A-List priority. I had purchased my ticket when it first went on sale, and added EBCI. I received a promotional companion fare that I was able to use starting on Jan 4th. I added a companion to my existing ticket, without early...

    Tron AP preview thread

    For GOTG I had a noon time slot, which was the first AP slot on the first day. I was able to ride multiple times. But as the line got longer they started to crack down on people riding more than once. So, I would shoot for the first time slot of the day or the last time slot of the day...

    The last 2 times I upgraded, coming from MCO and LAS, it was $50. Southwest says it starts at $30. My SW credit card gives me 4 upgrades per year, so no extra cost there. You upgrade on the SW app after you check in. A button will pop up allowing you to upgrade.

    Coronado bus stop at parks vs values

    The value bus stops are further away to accommodate the double buses that they sometimes have. They wouldn't fit in the regular bus slots. So, yes, the value resort buses are typically toward the end of the pick up spots. The exception, I would say, is at Animal Kingdom where they have their...
