    Different Guests on Different Days with DAS Pass

    @TexasChick123 We just did this. We had some family that came later and some who left early. I had them all listed in my friends and family with tickets and park reservations. When I made the advance selections, the CM made the reservations for those people who had park reservations for that...

    DAS - each visit

    What date starts the 60 day clock? Is it the date that you register in advance or the first day you are in the parks?

    Marathon Weekend 2023

    Last year my DH was running Goofy so we didn’t go to Expo until Thursday afternoon. No crowds and the waivers were just out on a table to sign. Since he had his Expo pass and bib number then he just went to get his bib with the signed waiver in hand. Quick and easy. If she’s running Dopey and...

    Dis Breast Cancer Survivors Part IV - GAGWTA

    Happy New Year to all. I had scans again in early December and the treatment remains effective. So much so that I asked my oncologist if I could skip a cycle over the holidays so I could feel good. He readily agreed and said he was not concerned with the break. It’s made the holidays so much...

    Marathon Weekend 2023

    They will have paper waivers available for her to sign at the Expo. Same thing happened to us last year and this year

    DAS pre selected attractions

    In my most recent time the first CM would only do the one park day within the 30 day window. I got online the next day and that CM did all 5 remaining days so it definitely varies per CM.

    Following along again. I’m currently FOMO in perpetuity due to illness but I still plan these trips for DH and now one daughter who runs.

    Dis Breast Cancer Survivors Part IV - GAGWTA

    Hello all. It’s been quite some time since I posted an update but did want to share some good news. My oncologist switched me to Trodelvy several months ago. It’sa relatively new chemo drug for triple negative MBC that got approval back in 2020. My most recent scans showed reduction in tumor...

    TS Experts...HELP!

    We love Hollywood Brown Derby but usually do it for lunch on a HS day. We just plan for a lighter dinner if we do a big lunch there. I LOVE their Cobb salad. We were also big fans of The Wave at the Contemporary. We still enjoy it as Steakhouse 71, but maybe liked The Wave a bit more. Still...

    SHADES OF GREEN at Walt Disney World Resort Information & Questions

    Thank you for the thorough review. I'd say we've had similar experiences at Shades. We always rent a car so never use the busses any more, but I've also felt that when we did use them they just were not a good transportation option. Walking over to Poly for the monorail or driving has always...

    What's the last show you binged watched?

    SHADES OF GREEN at Walt Disney World Resort Information & Questions

    We've stayed at Shades for numerous race weekends. They have race transportation from Shades just like the Disney owned resorts. As I recall the busses for the races are shared with Poly and GF. No reason to walk to Poly.

    Hold on tight to your kids!

    I remember being at Disney and my oldest was around 7 or 8 I think. He, of course, felt he was too old to hold hands and often wanted to wander a bit away from us. Then we ran across a younger child who was lost. This poor little thing was terrified. Sobbing and crying for his mommy. We...

    Best Pre-Marathon Restaurants

    We've used a similar strategy with a big lunch and then a smaller dinner. I've also never much bought into the whole carb-loading idea but I know many do. While I've not eaten there, like the PP said, I've heard really good things about Il Mulino.

    Disney World still creating magical memories?

    We've been twice post-covid and are going again in January for Marathon weekend. We still love it there. I still get such a sense of happiness when we drive through the welcome gates. Like some others, we've been often enough that if we miss a ride here or there, we are usually okay about...

    SHADES OF GREEN at Walt Disney World Resort Information & Questions

    I'm not completely certain, but I think the military member (or spouse) has to be there for initial check-in. You may want to call to confirm since we've never attempted that, but I know every time we've checked in they've required to see my husband's ID at check-in.

    Question about necessity of DAS

    It's hard to know definitively whether someone will get approved or not, but it sounds like you could certainly benefit from DAS. Unfortunately your best option is to try and get approved and see what happens. I think most people have success with shorter waits if they are able to log into the...

    How much did your parents help you towards your first home of your own?

    My parents loaned us $3000 for our first house. We paid it back later. We just gave my son $13,000 toward his down payment. We'll do similar for my daughters. I have a terminal illness and received an early disbursement on my life insurance. That is where the money came from for the down...
