It is by far my favorite parade. All the daytime parades kind of blend together in my head, and MSEP is not as cool for me. I would love for it to come back, but it just doesn't seem that is going to happen.

I was there a couple weeks ago, but didn't take advantage of EE., so I cant answer that part. The Disneyland App does have a similar feature to DW app where you can unlock the room with your phone (and other areas of the hotel that are locked to non hotel guests). You do need to link your...

This is the Lucasfilm entry. I know it's not that interesting, but I didn't want to get myself or the guide in trouble. The guide did say this was ok. Note that the main location of Lucasfilm is in San Fransciso. The person in the pic was the employee that the guide started up a...

We took the studio tour last week on a thursday at 2pm. There were only 7 of us on the tour (my son and I, and another group). We weren't hurried, and I never felt any pressure from other tour groups. We saw the archives, the legends plaza, Walt's office, animation building (all 3 floors)...

I did this within the first year they started doing this. So we got the "better" meal, the games, Mickey and Minnie coming out, the music during the fireworks, and the fireworks themselves... I still don't think it was worth it (or at least not something I would do again), mainly because the...

https://www.isitpacked.com/crowd-calendars/universal-studios-hollywood/ Like any crowd calendar, no guaranteees, but last week of March looks packed. Jimmy has some great suggestions. The other option of course is to get universal express pass, but be aware it doesn't help on Mario Kart ride.

the information is only on the DVC site, not on the disneyland site that I can see, and even then they don't indicate the actual discount. Specifically: https://disneyvacationclub.disney.go.com/discounts-perks-offers/tickets-tours/pass-programs (click the read more link)

My point was that they are creating demand for a virtual product just so they can get the "customer mix" that they want, and to plan staffing levels, no matter how customer hostile it is to have the policy. I just don't see any positive benefit for the average customer. Already, the Imagine...

Ok, the flex pass was using a similar reservation system. Fair point. when you said that Disney implemented the reservation system so quickly, and were able to do so because they were thinking about it, I countered that almost all theme parks also created their own reservation system about as...

By the way I found this, which seems to go opposite to your claim, yes it’s for disneyworld but I think the statement there about covid equally applies to disneyland. https://plandisney.disney.go.com/question/know-disney-doing-away-reservations-january-family-may-548041/

I’m curious how you know that the reservation system was in development before. I have never heard anyone claim that. If you have a source for that, I’d be interested in looking at that. Almost all theme parks after reopening implemented a reservation system, so are you saying they all...

I vote for storytellers, although I like goofys for dinner, on the day we arrive. Minnie’s is great for character variety and being in the park. If you do Minnie’s do a later breakfast, so you can get some attractions in before breakfast.

Park reservation system was created, and made sense during Covid. It had nothing to do with annual passes, until Disney realized they could use it to benefit themselves. If you don’t think people hate the reservation system, and are reducing or not going at all to Disney, you need to listen...

So by your logic, when they didn’t limit annual passes for years, Disneyland was a hellscape where everyone was miserable. No, that’s obviously not true. It’s that whole favorable mix thing, and their obsessive need for the reservation system.. it has nothing to do with an enjoyable...

it's really crazy to me that these are in such demand that they "sell out" (whatever selling out means for a virtual product that goes on your phone). For years, the annual pass was available 365 days a year, why can they no longer do that? Covid is no longer an excuse. I won't even begin...

Legoland has changed the Reserve and Ride since I last used it (it is now designed to be used on your phone instead of this second device you carried around with you). As well, there are options to buy individual rides instead of the full. So I don't think I have the answer to this, since...

the studio tour could be at any time of the day. They actually have quite a few tours going, so they spread it throughout the day. I’ve had it be first thing, right before lunch, and after lunch, or even final thing of the day.

The biggest thing about the tour, is that you are in a group of between 12 to 16 people total, including your group. So you are tied down to the slowest person in the group as well as your entire group preferences. As well, if there is something that you specifically want to see or do, you...

FYI, I got a quick email from the Land of Dreams Concierge, letting me know that the tour is now a full 12 hours, instead of 10, everything else staying the same ( # of people=6, the price, etc.). Wow, actually adding on value? 😀

I'll be honest, it is aggravating in the moment (if I let it get to me), seeing the CM's pass through 30 or 40 LL guests, and then allow less than 10 of standby guests (sometimes as low as 5 or less) to go before switching back to LL guests. However, as stated above, it's a legitimate and...
