    what is a wheelchair transfer access vehicle.

    I'm not sure exactly what that term refers to, but I know some rides (RSR and GRR come to mind) have places where the ride vehicle can pull off to the side so you can take your time getting in and out without holding up the ride. Perhaps that's what it is. On those two rides, RSR and GRR, you...

    Cafe Orleans - No reservations?

    If I were you I would keep trying. I'm thinking, if they aren't absolutely sure when the restaurant will be ready to reopen, they might be holding back the reservations just in case. Once they're sure they're on schedule to open around May 5, maybe more reservations will be released. Just a...

    Temperature and crowds

    One place I have found cold weather to make a big difference in crowds - the "wet zone" of WOC. We went in December, it must have been 2017 since WOC wasn't playing this past December. It was a cold night but there was no wind, so we took a chance with the wet zone. We didn't get wet, and...

    Smartphone Gimbal on a ride

    My understanding as far as what's permitted in the park is that the main factor is whether it extends. If the camera/phone attaches to it and that's it, it should be allowed in. But if it is collapsed down and can be further extended, it might be considered a selfie stick and not allowed. I was...

    Napa Rose Chef’s table 2019

    I think OP is looking for the price, not the menu/options. I don't have the answer, just pointing that out in case someone here does.

    World of Color Status Watch?

    I'm not sure if you're referring to the dessert party or the dining packages. My understanding is that the dessert party is refunded if the show is cancelled. IIRC, the dining packages are not refunded if the show is cancelled last minute since you would have already had the meal. In that...

    Too Many Dining Reservations= Too Confining?

    It depends a bit on your family's eating habits. My partner and I eat when we're hungry in daily life, and don't have set meal times, so at the parks we do mostly CS so we can just stop when we feel like it. We do some TS because we like it, but at max only a couple per trip and only one per...

    Drive from Las Vegas to DL

    I think they're both bad at different parts of the drive. Sundays are bad because so many Californians are driving home from a weekend in Vegas. I live in Vegas so I'm always going the opposite direction, but I see the traffic and am always grateful I'm on the other side of the median...

    Morning walk

    If it's the same as it was a couple of years ago, you sign up ahead of time because if no one signs up they cancel it. I think it's every day, or at least several times per week (I recall having a choice of days). You meet at the GCH DCA entrance and leave your phone in the room because it's not...

    Carthay Circle, Blue Bayou, Carnation Cafe : Which is a "must"?

    Honestly I didn't enjoy the food or the atmosphere at Blue Bayou. We went there on our first trip my partner (who usually doesn't have much opinion on planning) requested we not go back on future trips, so we haven't. As others have said, the food wasn't so good. As for atmosphere, if I...

    So lemme get this straight...

    When we made our first (supposed to be only) trip, I chose Sept/Oct based on the fact that of the two "slow" seasons, I had heard it would have far fewer refurbs. I think it's because there's a smaller gap between the end of Summer and the beginning of Halloween Time than there is between...

    I had a dream...a bad one.

    My partner has asthma and smoke is trigger. Typically if there's a big fire in socal and the wind is blowing inland, air quality drops to "unhealthy for sensitive groups" and she has to stay indoors (we live in Las Vegas). We went once when there was smoke higher up in the sky. I didn't...

    Anywhere to “sneak-a-peek” at SWGE?

    In addition to Big Thunder, I think you can get a view from the top of Micky & Friends parking garage.

    Ghirardelli discontinuing free chocolate?

    Oh, I thought it was always the case that you have to ask. But I've only been in there twice. The first time (several years ago) I didn't get one and I didn't even see where you were supposed to get one, the second time I was offered one at the counter while I decided what to order. So maybe...

    How does FASTPASS work at DL?

    I recall CM's telling people at the FP entrance for broken down rides that their FP would convert to multiexperience without asking first whether they have MP. I had MP, so I can't speak from experience, it just seemed to be the same spiel for anyone approaching the FP entrance so I took that...

    Star Wars Strategy?

    Of course as you guessed we'll just have to wait and see. Assuming they don't send us any curve balls, I would suggest grabbing a FP for one of the Star Wars rides each morning very first thing. Next day, do the other ride. If successful, you'll at least get to ride once and you can still jump...

    Help! Disneyland Attraction Drops... can someone give me an order of intensity?

    Star Tours is a simulator here too, so you should be fine. I've never been to WDW but I've also heard that Indy and Dinosaur have the same track. I'm not sure if that means that it's exactly the same or if it's just the same type of track. There is a small drop at the end of Indy - or at...

    Adding credit card to app for minor

    This is what I would do. You can both be logged in to the same account at the same time without issue, so this seems easier than figuring out how to add it to his account.

    Fastpass

    Many people definitely use the old system, but generally they do that to save the $10/person/day or because they like the extra walking or don't want to use their phone, not because the old system is better in terms of FP. The two systems are almost the same, and every way they're different is...

    Tell me about breakfast at Steakhouse 55?

    It's expensive for breakfast, but it's less expensive than dinner or tea at SH55, and IMO it's better. Both times we went we were expecting a large bill and we were pleasantly surprised.
