    Booked but still on the fence?

    We are booked for August, as far as I could push it to not overlap with school starting in the hopes that the longer we wait the more things will improve - but I am leaning more and more towards canceling and going somewhere else when I hear about mask misery in the heat (I think I'm being over...

    DHS/Toy Story Land "Early Morning Magic" (EMM) FAQ & Discussion

    We attended TS EMM on 6/12 and had a great time. There was 4 of us which includes a 7 year old and a 4 year old. Here's how the gist went: We woke around 6:15am at POFQ which was later than I had wanted, but we had done MK EMM the previous day and were a little tired. This was the 2nd full...

    La Hacienda de San Angel View Recently Due to Cantina Construction?

    I recently read that the Cantina has construction walls up and am wondering if this effects the views from the inside restaurant at all? We have an 8pm reservation in a couple of weeks, hoping to experience Illuminations from a window table if we are lucky. It was a post from a week or so...

    Southwest Early Bird Check-in

    I personally do it more for not having to check in rather than a boarding position since we can do family boarding. If we get a number that would put us behind family boarding we just do that instead. That said, you also get a higher number based on the type of fare you chose when you...

    Ohana for Breakfast a waste?

    When we went in April last year the adults were not blown away- the food wasn't great and yes service was slow. However our 4 & 7 year olds loved every minute of it and the character interaction was great. I would try it but it was a one and done for us. I would have been more disappointed if...

    Frozen Dessert Party change?

    Hmmm, I just checked and it still says "prime seating along World Showcase Lagoon... then all guests are guaranteed a reserved seat. It does mention inclement weather will be a standing area. https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/dining/epcot/frozen-ever-after-sparkling-dessert-party/

    Best non buffet character meal!

    We really loved Bon Voyage at Trattoria. We did a 12:05 ADR and treated it like brunch, then had a nice leisurely walk to World Showcase. The characters were so good, and the food was delicious! Flynn and Rapunzel were hilarious and interacted with each other throughout the dining room. We...

    Easter Sunday

    I believe there is a special Easter theme to the parade... but just that Mr. and Mrs. Bunny join and there are some other special parade touches. We were there Easter Sunday last year and missed the parade as we headed to Epcot. Mr. and Mrs. Bunny were also there doing a meet and greet... the...

    Which ADR to keep for arrival day dinner? (Storybook or Akershus)

    Thanks! We have an 11am Akershus the day after Fantasmic so we can drag a little in the morning. I was going to do lunch but think the kids will like breakfast foods better. Excited to try it!

    Which ADR to keep for arrival day dinner? (Storybook or Akershus)

    Thanks so much all. I think we will stick with Story Book (trying for a slightly later time still) and be prepared to Minnie Van it if need be. I may still keep our ADR at the end of the week just in case our flight is delayed... but will remember to cancel it if not. Thanks again, very excited!

    Which ADR to keep for arrival day dinner? (Storybook or Akershus)

    Hi there. Looking for a little help from those in the know about travel times etc. Our flight lands at 1pm (assuming on-time) and we are taking Magical Express to POFQ. Arrival by 3ish? We have a 4 and 7 year old. Option 1: Storybook Dining at Artist Point at 4:35... think we'll make it...

    Which "extras" are most worthwhile during busy time?

    Second that. We did the Plaza Garden Fireworks Dessert Party during Easter week last year and highly recommend it. People outside the garden were being told to stop and stay where they were while we had room to stretch out. Then after the show our daughter played in the "grass" with another...

    Last Meal on Leaving Day

    We did CRT on our departure day (early lunch) for our last trip and it was so magical. I think it will be a tradition for us until the kids say they want something else, but they are both princess lovers.

    Which day would you pick for Toy Story EMM?

    We are flying in on a Monday afternoon in June and doing a resort night, followed by Fantasy Land EMM Tuesday morning. We also really want to do Toy Story EMM, but I'm back and forth on when to schedule that... Options are: 1. The next day since it is historically on a Wednesday... but I have...
