    Epcot After Hours NOW On Sale for Resort Guests!!

    I was awake at 2:00am for I have no idea why and did log in and checked and was able to book this event for the last day, Aug 24. I love AH events and I am super pumped for the EP version. Now, if the other parks just extend through my August trip, I'll be happy as can be!

    Everything Genie, Genie+ and Individual Lightning Lane - Please Read Posts 1-7

    Possibility. Only other reason I can think of would be to increase the Genie+ sales by keeping headliners on that list of attractions. If they can increase sales more on Genie+ by having less ILL than they can make on having the 4 extra attractions as ILL, then it makes sense to leave things as...

    2022 MNSSHP dates?

    Personally, I hope they stick with the After Hours event. I like the later start time and the lower crowds. I've been a big fan of the AH events since they started them though. But, my guess is they will go back to the party this year. Although the margin on the party tickets is lower than the...

    Boo Bash and 50th Fireworks

    Boo Bash is an After Hours event and there was only one so far (last year). I'm assuming by "full Boo Bash" they are referring to the MNSSHP and you can look that up from previous years to see what was included. The major difference is it started earlier in the evening after an early park...

    Not excited for this trip at all…

    Sounds like you either need to cancel or adjust your attitude towards the trip. Going in thinking it will be a disaster will most likely end up that way. I also think it's unfair to judge Genie+ before you actually use it. We loved it on our December trip and found it pretty easy to get used to...

    Boo Bash and 50th Fireworks

    Boo Bash was an After Hours event so it followed the After Hours format and had regular fireworks before the event started. MNSSHP is a party that closes the park early and with that, you don't get regular fireworks. So it will depend if they bring the party back or if they stick with After...

    Genie Updated for International Guests…Tip Board Working

    My recent experience for anyone still having issues... I'm using Android (Samsung S20) from Canada. I have never been able to get tip board to work at home. Went to WDW in December with a US data package and still did not work. It only loaded if I was on WiFi. It was a hassle since the coverage...

    Walt Disney World is pausing new sales of some of its annual passes.

    I disagree and I believe capacity is still not at 100% that is why you are seeing more days sold out now than you would in pre-COVID times when you would see MK only stop letting people in on 2 or 3 of the busiest days of the year. Entire sections of resorts are still shut down so for sure...

    Walt Disney World is pausing new sales of some of its annual passes.

    I was planning on upgrading our tickets on our upcoming December trip to APs because we also have a trip next August so I figured I'd take advantage. The cost of our 2 x 10 day hoppers works out to about the same as APs, but I was really looking forward to the food & merch discounts. Oh well...

    Rental Car question on when payment is taken

    That's a very valid point. I'm just a bit nervous. Having 2 reservations is not exactly a pile of them. I'll just stick with my best 2 reservations.

    Rental Car question on when payment is taken

    I have multiple rental car reservations at the moment, each done with the rewards program for each that has all my credit card info stored so that I can skip the counter and go straight to garage. None are re-paid and have payment due at time of rental. I understand that they place a hold on...

    Walt Disney World SWAN, DOLPHIN & SWAN RESERVE RESORTS Information & Questions

    I'm hoping somebody can help me out with this question because I'm super frustrated with Disney IT at the moment... I recently changed my upcoming December trip from AKL to Dolphin. I booked a package with 10 day park hopper tickets. It took several days and a few calls to get my confirmation...

    Candlelight Processional Returning!! Nov 26 - December 30th

    Does anyone know what time of day CP takes place? I find times from 2019 for 3 different showings, but haven't found anything for this year.

    Merriest after party OR a full second MK day?

    I would choose After Hours. If your focus is attractions, you will cover more in that one event than you will in a full park day.

    Disney Genie announcement

    I agree with you. There was a pretty high % of guests who never utilized a FP at all, many of that group thought people were paying for them back then when they weren't. I expect Genie+ not be much different and in fact you will likely end up with a group of casual guests who buy Genie+ and may...

    Disney Genie announcement

    My personal thoughts on Genie+ is I'm cautiously optimistic for it. I loved fastpasses and worked that system very well and always was able to get multiple fastpasses after my first 3 were used up. I rarely had to wait in standby and when I did, it was 20 minute or less wait. I'm assuming at...

    If you were considering the Christmas After Hours before pricing came out, are you still going?

    After Hours are my very favourite events and with this year being my first time at Disney in December, I am very interested in the Very Merriest After Hours. Not going to lie, the price made me think twice, but I ultimately did decide on 2 nights during our 10 day stay (as comparison, we usually...

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    I recently moved our August trip that from Yacht Club to December at Caribbean Beach. I wanted to save some money this time so I could get APs to cover us for next August back at Yacht Club. I'm excited to be back at CBR, it was the very first onsite resort we ever stayed at so there is some...

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    Pirate rooms are in Trinidad only so your requests would be limited to building number (34, 35 & 36 are at the north end of that section and slightly closer to pool/main building). You can also request if you prefer a ground floor vs. upper floor. Water/pool view is a bookable room category and...

    Tickets and Annual Pass Questions - Please add your ticket questions to this thread

    Thanks for this info. I'm not interested in the dining plan. I would come out ahead paying OOP especially with the AP discount. I'm mostly just trying to make sure I am able to leverage any room discount + any discounts for things like parties, tours and recreation. It is sounding like the...
