- Boardwalk to StudiosIn Disney World DiscussionSeptember 24, 2024I always suggest walking, especially if you are staying on the Villas side of the resort. If you happen to see a boat leaving Yacht and Beach and you think you can catch it at the Swan and Dolphin, that may be quicker but you have to time it just right. I agree with Jonny when it comes to early entry too. Think of it as a guaranteed arrival time vs. having to possibly wait for Disney transportation. BTW, the order of Friendship Boat stops is: Epcot - Boardwalk - Yacht and Beach - Swan and Dolphin - Hollywood Studios. The route is just reversed going from the Studios to Epcot.22
- Multi-Day Trip tipsIn Disney World DiscussionDecember 3, 2024I definitely think breaks in the middle of the day are good, especially if you are doing early entry and staying for a night time show. We either had timed pool time plus ipad time or nap time. It worked well for us. We would do an early lunch (11 am) either at the hotel or the park, and come back around 3 - 4 pm. The other option would be to do early entry one day and leave for the hotel a little before dinner. Then return to the same park on another day, but later in the day and catch the night time show. Have a great time!22
- We're working on a new series of Disney World 101 videos – what topics should we cover?In Disney World DiscussionJanuary 24, 2025They all sound like great ideas. I don't know how this would work, but something that would be useful for people who aren't regulars would be which route to take to get to the key locations in the parks. Obviously I know you can look at the map, but sometimes translating that to what's actually in front of you isn't as easy as it sounds. I can recall a couple of times we were at the front of early entry, ready to head to Rise of the Resistance or Flight of Passage having not been to the parks for over 10 years suddenly panicking because I didn't actually know which direction to go in!22
- Disney Bucket List?In Disney World DiscussionFebruary 17, 2025We really enjoyed Biergarten, so definitely keep that one on your list. We enjoyed the On Broadway concert series, watching the sunset at Space 220 Lounge (the off-menu plant-based appetizers are amazing), meeting Captain Jack Sparrow, doing Star Tours many times in a row (it was different every time), having the Lemonade Julep at Casey's Corner while watching the parade, bringing Dole Whip from Aloha Isle into the Enchanted Tiki room, and watching the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular from Rob's favorite seats.22
- What is your favorite Disney Resort?In Ear Scouts LodgeOctober 29, 2023My family loves Yacht Club. We've stayed there our last 5 trips. We're Epcot resort people now since my kids are older (12 and 10) and MK isn't at the top of our to-do list. We always stay club level and the service is amazing, the water views exquisite and the food (in our opinion) is great. We were even upgraded to the vice presidential Commodore's Suite last December! That said...I just stayed at BW for a trip with my sister and loved it! Same great service and views but just felt a little more fun? Maybe I was getting bored with YC?? Going with my husband and kids in February and hope they love BW like I did!!22
- Mickey very merry Christmas partay :)In Disney World Discussion·November 16, 2023Me again! I have some questions about the MVMCP. How early would you recommend being at the Walt and Mickey statue to wait for fireworks, parade and show? Does anyone know the parade route? Any recommendations on what order to do things such as rides, food and shopping? Thank you!!2251
- Genie+ second park of dayIn Disney Genie Forum·April 21, 2024Hi! I have a really good handle on genie+ and have always used it successfully. My family is planning to visit over Labor Day Weekend. Now that things have changed with park hopping restrictions no longer in place, I am unsure on the stacking process for your second park. My family of 4 is planning to do EPCOT and Hollywood Studios. Ideally, we would rope drop EPCOT, starting at the International Gateway entrance. I have a feeling we can easily get through Remy and Frozen plus the ILL or VQ for Guardians. However, is it possible to get lightning lanes for Hollywood Studios beginning at 7 AM if you're not going to scan into that park first? We will have regular tickets without the need for reservations. Slinky dog is important for us to get (but I know we can't pick a time for the first ride at 7 AM) so I was just hoping for clarity on if we can book LL for HS starting in the morning and then through our morning in EPCOT without any issue with our park entrance. Hope this made sense. Thanks!2245
- For the FoodiesIn Ear Scouts Lodge·February 12, 2024Hey Scouts! So on my solo trip last December, I was able to snag a seat at the Nomad Lounge bar and tried the Bangkok wings. I'm a big fan of Asian cuisine and just loved these. So tonight I got it in my head to try and duplicate the recipe. Nothing to go on but my memory and the menu description. I have to say, I think I nailed it! Sweet (palm sugar), sticky (honey), spicy (Birds Eye chilis), tangy (fresh lime), and packed with umami (fish sauce). Some jasmine rice and a quick pickle rounded it out perfectly. What are some of your 'must have' Disney dishes??2243
- “Top Picks” not appearing on Tip BoardIn Disney Genie Forum·January 20, 2024Hi all, My family and I are gearing up for our first Disney trip later this week! To prepare, I've been watching all the Ear Scout videos on Genie+ and they've been fantastic! Thank you! Our first day in the park is Wednesday (going to MK) and I've set up "My Day" and selected a single ride that I'm targeting for Genie+ (Yes, I know I'm early but I'm excited and want to make sure I understand the app!). However, when I go to the "Tip Board" page I don't see the "My Top Picks" heading that shows the single ride I said I was interested in. Since I'm still a few days out, I obviously haven't purchased the Genie+ service yet. Will that "My Top Picks" menu become available once I purchase the service on the day of, or am I doing something wrong? :) Thank you!2296
- Need help planning your Disney World trip?In Disney World DiscussionOctober 25, 2023I have a question for everyone - i'm going with my family next week (my parents and all of us kids who are adults) and we have 2 rooms at all-star Sports. We're traveling on a budget to ensure everyone could afford to go so we'll have 4 people in each room, which means 2 of my brothers (the unlucky single ones lol) will need to share a bed, which they would rather not do. Does anyone know if the resort can provide a cott or air matress? I've heard some do this but i'm not sure about value resorts... i'm also thinking of just ordinger a cheap air matress on amazon and having it delivered there haha.14
- Capacity during New Years week?In Disney World Discussion·April 21, 2024Hi so we are booked at Boardwalk hotel new years week. We like to take breaks during the day but I’m hearing we might not be able to get back into parks due to capacity. Can someone explain the likelihood this will happen and the levels of capacity situation? Thanks1438
- Park Parties for Rides Only and Late Entry - Worth It?In Disney World DiscussionAugust 8, 2024I did Jollywood Nights last year (I was down there for my December birthday as well haha) and managed to get on all the rides I wanted, plus got to see the muppets show and have some food. I think we left the party a little early too. Personally, I don’t think the cost of those tickets would make it worthwhile unless you take advantage of the early entry. I also did an After Hours at HS in March and there is a big difference in crowd levels, but either way, rides were pretty easy to get on (Mostly because a lot of people just go for the shows, characters, etc.). I’m going again in a few weeks and am almost following your plan lol. We land at 1:00 and are doing MNSSHP that night. Mostly for rides, so I’ll let you know how that goes if you’re interested! I will also add, as a solo traveler, you can get soooo much more done in an evening if you want! I also just realized I gave arguments for both sides of your question lol, but I hope it helped! 😂14
