    Yachtman's Steakhouse reopening August 5, ADR's begin 7/29!

    Anyone know what time on 7/29 reservations will become available? I really want to try to get one for our 8/15-8/19 stay at Beach Club. I want to make sure I start trying as soon as they open up. Thanks!

    Disney's YACHT & BEACH CLUB RESORTS Information & Questions

    Just booked 8/15-19.…so excited to be back. It’s been 4 long years & a few cancelled trips due to COVID. I was surprised by the cut backs to mousekeeping. Do you think by Aug daily room cleaning will be back? We have 5 in the room including 3 teenage boys so we will definitely need fresh towels...

    The Disney World Waiting on Hold Support Thread

    I finally finished the call after 6 hours. I decided to cancel. The insurance would have transferred but because one of my kids turns 18 before the trip I needed to pay an additional $76 for his insurance. I was initially OK with that but then he said I needed to pay it today & asked for a...

    The Disney World Waiting on Hold Support Thread

    I called right at 7 am this morning & waited about 2.5 hours. Talked to a CM about moving my 7/10-7/15 trip (originally scheduled for May) to May 2021. He asked if he could put me on a "brief" hold to find out if our trip insurance would transfer with the re-booking & still be valid. That was...

    ***Post your questions and experiences with Coronavirus-related canceling/rescheduling of resort reservations here***

    Rescheduled 5/15-20 to 7/10-15 with free dining. Saved us a lot of money. It was way easier than I was expecting. I only waited a few minutes. Summer isn't ideal but we'll make it work. I will be surprised if we actually go then though. Even if Disney is open we may be comfortable traveling yet.

    Can we do this (alcohol entitlement question)?

    We've had the DDP a bunch of times but this is the first time when alcohol was included. We will have the DDP with 2 adults & 3 "Disney adults". Are all credits still pooled together or is there some indication to the server that the credit is for someone under 21 & therefore isn't eligible...

    So excited that we’re booked at BC 5/15-5/20. Even more excited that my sister & her family are coming with us for their first visit. I can’t wait!!!

    DAS return time during EMH?

    I wasn’t sure if they were like FP or not. If we’re in a park for early magic hours will they issue a return time during the first hour? I would expect the actual return time to be after the first hour but was hoping we could at least get a return time issued soon after getting in the park. Thanks!

    Your favorite snack credit as a small meal?

    You mentioned pulled pork fries in MK but they also have them at Flame Tree BBQ in AK. The portion is definitely big enough for a meal & they're really good.

    Karamell-Kuche Favorites

    The first time I tried this I told my family it was the best thing I ever ate. My son skeptically asked me if I meant it was the best thing I ate on the trip. Nope...best thing I ever ate period. I loved it (obviously).

    Can I go to the “No Bags Security” with a tiny purse?

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I believe you need to go thru the bag line with even the smallest of "purses". If it's truly wallet sized could you wrap the strap around it & shove it in your pocket just until you get thru security? I think if it's in your pocket then you should be OK going...

    Should my son waste his time standby for FOP? (Updated!!!!)

    My son was able to get to AK this morning a little early. He texted me at 9:10 that he was off FOP already. He said it was amazing. So happy he was able to get on. I don't know any other details (what time he got there, if they let them in early, did they sprint back there). I don't want to bug...

    Should my son waste his time standby for FOP? (Updated!!!!)

    Unfortunately he says he has to take the scheduled transportation. It's Disney transportation but because it's such a large group (220 + kids) they have their own buses. He's helping organize the trip because he's treasurer of his class but he has no say in logistics. Teachers who go on this...

    Should my son waste his time standby for FOP? (Updated!!!!)

    I should have probably added that the 2nd half of their day is MK & that's where they made their FP for. So, no FP possibility for day of at AK.

    Should my son waste his time standby for FOP? (Updated!!!!)

    Thanks for your replies! I'll give him the information & he can decide once he's there. My guess is he'd probably be OK with a 1 hr wait but not much more. We've been to Disney 5 times as a family so he's ridden everything else in AK a bunch of times. We probably won't be back for at least a...

    Should my son waste his time standby for FOP? (Updated!!!!)

    My son has his senior trip to Disney coming up soon. He will be in AK on Fri 4/5 with a 9 am open. The shuttle to take them to AK (staying at AS Sports) doesn't pick them up until 8:30 so they'll be way behind the rope drop crowd. He couldn't get a FP for FOP. They're only doing a 1/2 day in AK...

    Tusker House or Boma?!

    You don't say breakfast or lunch/dinner. I've been to breakfast & dinner at Boma & a late breakfast at Tusker where we were also there when they changed over to lunch. We liked both a lot. I'd give the edge for food to Boma. We had a few picky eaters in our group and they were very happy with...

    Too much? BOMA: BKFT and Dinner? Same day?

    I've done both & have enjoyed both very much but I have to give the edge to the breakfast. It was so good. It was my favorite meal of the trip. I would be fine doing both on the same day assuming they were spread far enough apart. What times are your reservations? If you're not big breakfast...

    I finally got a pin code!!!!!! (edited to compare to PSD)

    I did a quick analysis to see what's a better deal. PSD looks like the winner. PSD saves $124 for deluxe (Beach Club) and $719 for moderate (POR) over the pin code. That surprised me. I guess pin codes aren't the best way to go after all.

    I finally got a pin code!!!!!! (edited to compare to PSD)

    I don't think I can use it, but I'm just so excited I got one. We've been going to Disney about every 2 years over the past 13 years but have never gotten a pin code. I got it yesterday in the mail & it's up to 30% off room from 1/1-3/9 or up to 25% off 3/10-6/1. I can book through 1/25 so I'm...
