    Coronavirus discounts on the horizon?

    No February dates on mine - I just went back and checked the email, and the dates are 4/25-4/30, 5/4-5/7 and 5/10-5/14 (which is when I picked to go) for standard All-Star rooms. I wasn't even supposed to be going but that darn Disney roped me right in! I also got a FANTASTIC deal on my flight...

    Coronavirus discounts on the horizon?

    I don't know if this is coincidental or related to the virus, however on Tuesday I received a code for $69 + tax All-Star rooms for a few selected date periods in April and mid-May. I did go ahead and book, but I do also think the timing is interesting.

    *** Yay May! OFFICIAL MAY 2020 THREAD!!! Flowers are starting to bloom! ***

    I just booked yesterday for a few days starting May 11! I love a good surprise trip. I’m really excited to see everything new going on in the World. Fingers crossed for Ratatouille opening sooner than later!

    How many days left until you leave?

    249! I unfortunately had to move my trip from June to October. I'm thankful I'm still able to go though! I don't like to wish time away but hopefully it will be here sooner than it seems.

    So how intense is the drop in Kali River Rapids?

    I found a nice hot rock to sit on in the sun like a lizard and tried to dry out! I ended up doing that awkward wet clothing waddle out of AK that day. I squeezed my shirt out but it still was soaked. My boyfriend who was right next to me got barely a misting - it was me and the empty seat to my...

    So how intense is the drop in Kali River Rapids?

    I was in That Seat and I can assure you this gif is exactly how I felt! :fish:

    So how intense is the drop in Kali River Rapids?

    I'll throw my hat in the ring, another opinion that it's not that intense and I HATE drops with a passion. It's nothing at all like Splash. I will also say I was on the leading edge going down the hill and got DRENCHED, so much so that I was soaked all day - my hair looked like I had just come...

    Ten Reasons. "I'm Going Solo Because..."

    One of my top reasons! Most of my friends are married with their own families, I'm currently single, and my parents aren't the biggest of Disney fans so.....I want to go and the heck with it, I am! I also love being spontaneous and doing what I want, whenever I want. I did DL solo unexpectedly...

    "Official" 2020 Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party - Poor Unfortunate Souls (2020 MNSSHP CANCELLED)

    I plan to go on Halloween night this year (yes, I know I'm probably crazy!). I had tickets for Halloween night for 2018 and my trip was cancelled last minute so although I've been before, I've never experienced Halloween night. The parade is my absolute favorite of all Disney parades!

    *** Yay May! OFFICIAL MAY 2020 THREAD!!! Flowers are starting to bloom! ***

    I'll be there from 5/30-6/7 at All Star Movies! It's my first solo trip to WDW (did one to DL and LOVED it) so I'm very excited. I have all my ADRs booked but I'm almost wanting to just wing some days and see where it takes me, since I only have myself to worry about. Either way I'm sure I'll...

    Best of Luck Steve!

    Yes, they said he will soon be an agent and were joking about he and his wife fighting over clients! I hope he does great!

    Best of Luck Steve!

    I'm sure going to miss him! He was so upbeat and cheery and I feel like he always tried to see the positive in things. Good luck in whatever you do and safe travels, Steve! You will be missed!

    Is there a reason why people find the need to stand during Parades/Fireworks/Stage shows

    I stand because I was caught in an actual stampede before and witnessed people who had been sitting on the floor be trampled on, resulting in serious injury. If there is ever an emergency I do not want to have to try to get out of that position, especially after witnessing the injuries...

    Security check using TSA precheck

    I have TSA Global Entry and still go through security - they don't just trust me blindly, the main difference is I don't have to take off my shoes or take out my liquids. Having this means exactly nothing at anywhere else that has security lines, be it a sports stadium or Disney. I could get to...

    Politness Discussion

    I have done this too! I always try to thank as many CMs as I can, offer a genuine smile, and especially put in compliments to guest services about their service. I make a note in my phone of the name, location, etc and then go and do it. I hope it has a positive effect on them and their careers...

    Just a few words I’d like to say about the show...

    I agree! I struggle a lot with anxiety disorder, and have had a TERRIBLE winter/spring for several reasons. Disney has always been my go-to happy place to relax and unwind from my anxiety ever since I was a young child (I have had anxiety from a very early age) and it's like they bring it to me...

    2020 Packages Date Announced

    I am beyond excited! I canceled my fall trip in order to save and stay at BC for my birthday next June. I've never stayed deluxe and have always wanted to, so now finally booking that package will make it seem so real. I already have my phone countdown going!
