    Genie Plus a Nightmare with Large Group

    Go to one of the blue Guest Services umbrellas when you are in the park. Explain your problem, and the exact first reservation that you were trying to get. It is not a guarantee that they can secure exactly what you are looking for, but the people working at the parks are not trying to stick it...

    Does 60 + 10 rule apply for specialty bookings as well?

    60+10 should work. You need to call to book it.

    Technical issues

    It's unfortunately pretty normal. Of my past 5 planned trips, 3 of them has similar issues when booking. The phone lines open up in a half hour. That's your best bet. In the mean time, try different web browsers. It is also possible that everything is already booked up. 60 days from now is the...

    Critique my plan for party of 5

    Looks like a fun-filled few days! The one piece that made me pause was your plans for Epcot. Rushing to Remy, then going back to future world, and then all the way back to Teppan Edo is a lot of walking in just a few short hours. If you could get a LL for Remy for around lunchtime (I know that...

    Moonlight Magic is BACK!

    Would this all be on the same contract, or two different ones? I am not sure what the official rules were supposed to be, but when I tried booking as a blue card member, using points from a resale only contract, I was not able to secure a spot in the early window. If all the points are under the...

    Moonlight Magic is BACK!

    I am a blue card member who is staying on a purely resale points contract under a separate account number. I could not access when I put in my membership number. I am assuming that the same would happen to you as well. I was instructed to call member services, but their line is all busy signals...

    Genie+ — Should we or not

    With a trip as long as yours, you should be able to get plenty done without having to be bound to Genie+. The only parks where it may be worthwhile are Magic Kingdom, due to the number of rides worth waiting in line for, and Hollywood Studios, because that park has 7 or so headliners and then a...

    When do people drop ADRs?

    I've typically found the most luck right around 48 hours out. That also is right around the time that I drop reservations that I do not think I will be using as well. It is always good to check frequently, though, as that is not a hard rule by any means.

    Any guess what the cost of Mears will be to get from airport to resort?

    Mears Connect is going to replace the current model. More details are to come in the next month or so. In the meantime, you can price out what you anticipate trips costs will be here. https://reserve.mearstransportation.com/#/ My bet is it will end up being cheaper per person for trips direct...

    Have you had an issue that only Disney IT dept can fix?

    I had an issue where I had both an unactivated AP and a 1 day ticket. It kept auto assigning my AP first, when I wanted to only use the 1 day ticket. I waited about 20 minutes on the phone to get the first person, who referred me to tech help. I then waited another 45 minutes for them to pick...

    WWYD- Caribbean or Riviera

    I would for sure go Riviera then.

    WWYD- Caribbean or Riviera

    If I am reading things correctly, a frustrating snag in your plans could be that 64 is more than 50% of 125. They might end up cancelling your whole reservation based on that limitation, even though it is just 1.5 points over. Could you buy 2 OTU points, borrow 62, and then use the rest from...

    Brady and Gronk

    As a Bears fan, I'm glad that they kind of blew it for the Bucs on Thursday night. Brady is reminding me of Micheal Jordan on the Wizards, but he had better management on the Patriots than Jordan had on the Bulls. It would have been perfect for him to have called it a career 2 years ago. Gronk...

    Congratulations Amy Coney Barrett on your Supreme Court nomination

    Last I checked, he got a hearing, and did not get voted in. Just because someone is nominated, it does not mean that automatically get a spot on the court. Garland, on the other hand, was never given a hearing, because it would have been "inappropriate to do so during an election year." Wait...

    Good luck to Merrick Garland as well. Still waiting for his confirmation hearing...

    Black Licorice Overdose kills man

    The guy in the article ate a pound and a half of it every day for over a week, and ended up dying from a nutrient imbalance while sitting at a fast food restaurant. While it is easy to blame the licorice, it sounds like he had a lot more health and dietary issues that significantly helped lead...

    How Hard To Get A Studio At Riviera?

    Not to mention all the people with a backlog of points that they didn't use in 2020. The minute this virus is mostly behind us (early estimates are mid-2021), DVC will be extremely busy.

    John Boyega accuses Disney of pushing his Star Wars character aside

    He has a decent point there, but let's be honest, Rey's "Your parents were nobodies, no wait, you're actually the grandkid of an Emporer who somehow can back to life after being blown up" storyline isn't exactly deep and full of nuances. The writing in the first movie wasn't all that good, and...

    Changing BLT to SSR points

    Only if there are open rooms at BLT. You would be dropping one reservation, hoping that nobody else takes it immediately due to a waitlist request, and that nobody else grabs it in the minute that it is not claimed, and then you would try to claim it with your other points.
