Hello! I am looking for some tips for traveling with 2 young kiddies! We are looking to travel to Disney World for my son’s 4th birthday which is January 19th. I was wondering if the weekend/week of Martin Luther king day is typically a busy time to visit the parks?

I would be traveling with my mom, my husband and our 2 toddlers. We would be traveling from Sarasota for a quick 3/4night trip and think we would just do Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios so the kiddies can see the Pixar characters. Since it would be the 5 of us, I was thinking of renting an airbnb nearby so we could all be together vs multiple hotel rooms. If anyone has any recommendations or tips it would be much appreciated! We haven’t been in years and obviously never with kids!

Hey all. My husband and I (both men) are nervous about visiting in Easter after Trump winning. I feel like Orlando is like a different world though. We’re staying onsite for the two weeks anyway so I imagine it will be fine, right?

I’ve got the vacation package, and on Day 2, I’ll get the Happy Entry with access to Fantasy Springs. I want to make the most of it. They gave me two attraction selections for Day 2, and I chose Toy Story and Soarin’. Do you recommend waiting until 10 a.m to use these pre-selected attractions, so I can take advantage of the Happy Entry and use Premier Access first for other attractions before everyone? Then, after that, head to Fantasy Springs. Also, with my Oceano breakfast at 6:40 a.m., what time should I leave the restaurant to get to the gate on time?

Have you ever seen a character at a character meal you wouldn't except to be there (mainly if they aren't listed as being there on the official websites). If so, what was your experience? Thank you.

Hello! Have the amazing privilege of doing to Disney sea in a few weeks and have everything prepped. I have a specific question regarding the fast passes (I forget the name of them but I know there are two types at Sea) and you need to purchase them in the app once at the park and it’s open but have any of you had issues using their American credit cards on the app? Ran into this issue when purchasing the tickets themselves and had to purchase on Klook because the American card kept getting declined. Any tips?

I’m going in a few months and I’m just confused on a few things and am hoping to use this as a thread to get some explanations!

Going as a family to VMCP on the 24th, and because of a miscommunication, my sister didn’t purchase her ticket in time before it sold out. She’s pretty upset about missing her niece’s first disney trip! Any chance they periodically release more tickets or will have a few to sell on the day of ?

Space Mountain, Haunted Mansion, Pirates, Small World, Tiki Room, Big Thunder, Mark Twain Riverboat, Jungle Cruise, Carousel of Progress, Matterhorn, the Fantasyland Dark rides, etc.

Does the music make an attraction outdated? If the music is outdated, then exactly what would take its place? Is Tiki Tiki Room, A Pirates' Life, It's a Small World, and Grim Grinning Ghosts and are other classic Disney movie songs of yester year considered for older crowds? Is it the technology or the overall aesthetic outdated? This is specially for original attractions (severely lacking today IMO) that people today expect to be a recognizable Disney IP. Despite being seen as old (older Disney IPs and original attractions) remain classics and remain popular overall at many of the parks.

What are you're favorite quotes from rides or other recordings around WDW? I'm designing some Disney bumper stickers, and so far I have stickers designed around "Please stand clear of the door" "Thank the Phoenicians' "Only then will we truly be Living With the Land"

Hi all,

Well, I'm going alone to DisneySea and Disneyland with vacation package and I will get attraction tickets 2 for Disneyland and 1 for DisneySea.

Which attractions should I pick? I might pick the busiest attraction, and I might buy some Premier Access.

To start, don't get me wrong- rides like Space Mountain or Haunted Mansion always excite me along with newer rides like Rise of the Resistance but ever since maybe the covid era it just seems their fast pass type systems somehow get worse and more expensive every year.

Basically- the way the pricing and park policies have been evolving along with seemingly growing crowds year after year makes the parks less appealing for me. Also I will say I'm not rich by any means so if I'm shelling out money for a trip I can imagine getting way more my money's worth visiting Yellowstone or something. I do still enjoy well done theme parks and rides though.

What do you think- agree, disagree, etc?

Why can't they do like with the old days and come up with an entirely original idea, or better yet take an IP character and place them in an original setting?

I’m devasted. Really needed Christmas tickets for December 1st is there any way I can find any? Or should I let my hope die 😭🤣

Was already in Orlando for work and since I turn 30 next week I figured why not celebrate. Haven’t been since I was a kid. Trying to make the most of the one day here !

Do they not have fast passes anymore ??
