    Christmas 2021 Discounts

    Not sure, but I think it mirrors the FL discount. I'm staying in CSR and it applied to that, at the same rate (15%) as the FL discount.

    Christmas 2021 Discounts

    Visa cardholder discount, too, that should match the FL discount.

    Windsor Hills Information Station

    IMO your instincts are spot on. The executed written contract governs your rights, not what you were told separately by phone or what appears on VRBO, so good for you for not just signing. It's not that hard to revise one of those contracts, so I'm not sure why they'd rather lose the booking...

    Windsor Hills Information Station

    Our contract limits the number of vehicles to two (in a townhome). Not sure if other properties, like the larger houses, allow more.

    What are fast pass lines being used for?

    Just a quick note: DAS is no longer a physical card (as it was with the now-defunct GAC, or Guest Assistance Card) - it's tied to your MDE/MagicBands. Just one person from the party needs to go to the attraction entrance to get a return time for the entire group, which is then tied to the...

    What’s the wettest you ever got at a Disney Theme Park?

    We had just finished dinner at O'hana and had ridden the monorail to MK in order to catch a bus back to Pop. It started sprinkling rain as the monorail was pulling into the station, in one of those early evening Florida showers with rain but no lightning, so we decided to just head across the...

    Oh, what I wouldn't give to be sipping coffee next to this fountain this morning, instead of at my desk at work!

    Nervous about Pop...

    Agreed about the timing. We just spent a week at Pop and the groups made it miserable. It wasn't so bad at the food courts, but the constant running and yelling and banging on doors (until nearly 2 a.m. on multiple nights) left us exhausted and frazzled. We were surrounded by teenage boys on...

    Peter Pan MK M&G hours

    Does anyone know the hours Peter Pan actually meets at MK? The MDE app says 1:00 - 1:40 and 3:55 - 4:30, but the website says 1:00 - 4:30. I thought it was 1:00 - 4:30, with intermittent breaks, but the inconsistency makes it difficult for me to plan! TIA

    Evolving Epcot and new rides

    "May EPCOT Center entertain, inform, and inspire and above all, may it instill a new sense of belief and pride in man's ability to shape a world that offers hope to people everywhere." That's from the dedication plaque, and sets out EPCOT's original mission: entertain, inform, and inspire...

    Pictures of things No Longer Seen at WDW

    This one also qualifies for the thread "Pictures of things no longer seen at WDW but that will be seen at WDW again pretty soon."

    Pop Century Room Renovations

    But there will be multiple gondola cars on the line, meaning the hourly capacity will be 2000-3000, depending on the type of car/system used.

    Pop Century Room Renovations

    The type of system rumored to be used has redundant motors with redundant power supplies, and the cars are not connected directly to the cable. This means even a total power failure of the main motor would not stop the system, and even if a single car has an issue, it can be pulled from the...
