    MK fireworks dessert party booking not showing up.?

    While the dessert parties should be available to book 60 days out, that is not always the case. Last time I booked I had to wait another couple of weeks. Just keep checking if the dates don’t show up right away. Have fun… we loved the experience!

    Kidani Refurb

    I just read that Kidani is undergoing a refurb February through September. I have a savanna view studio booked there for a June trip, so I was not thrilled to hear this news. I chose Kidani because I feel the savanna views are usually better than those at Jambo - and we love the animals. I’m...

    Chances of getting an extra person in on my reservations

    This should not be a problem at all. Check in for your reservation on line, at which time you will have the option to add one more person to your reservation. Or just tell the host/hostess upon check-in when you arrive at the restaurant. We did this many times when our son’s girlfriend...

    Best Genie Plus videos (for tips and strategies)

    I would like to brush up on Genie Plus before our upcoming trip. We used it in January - though admittedly not very well. Any recommendations for videos that provide Genie Plus strategies? I know the basics but could definitely benefit from some advanced tips!

    Can family/friends visit??

    You can also add the person as a “day guest” at the front desk, which allows them to use the pool. We have done this a few times.

    Sunshine Flyer Experiences

    The exact same thing happened to us... even the contacts situation! The Front Desk at AKL actually got some contact solution for me out of the closed gift shop so I could take them out. It was a lesson learned. Now I always travel with a contact case and a solution in my carry on!

    Thanks to all for sharing your experiences. I decided to skip SWA until their operations improve and booked American out of Philly. I'm hoping for the best! Unfortunately delays and cancellations are common across the board these days.

    Looks like my concerns are legit. I’m not willing to risk losing days off my vacation to save some money on flights. I know all of the airlines have issues these days, but SWA seems to be particularly bad.

    Thank you so much for the suggestions! Unfortunately we are far from LGA and are not planning to rent a car, so this plan wouldn’t work well for us. I think we’ll just have to pay more for air this trip. 🙄

    Yikes! I don’t think I’m willing to book SWA until reliability improves.

    Baltimore is too far for us. This is the scenario I’m afraid of!

    Recent Southwest Experiences

    Our dates are 6/25 - 7/4. Unfortunately we don’t have flexibility because we’re there for a dance event and have to be back at work on the 5th. (Well, we could fly home on 7/3 but we’d rather not!) SWA has best fares and non stop flights going there (when I account for extra fees), but no direct...

    Thank you for sharing your experiences. I do realize that air travel is tough overall right now. We’ve had pretty good luck with JetBlue and United but haven’t flown SWA in a while, so just wanted to get a pulse on what to expect.

    Recent Southwest Experiences

    Southwest used to be our airline of choice, but then they stopped flying from EWR to MCO and reduced their non-stop flights out of PHL. So we’ve been flying JetBlue and United. I’m currently shopping airfare for our summer trip and fares are awful… and surely will continue to rise. I’m thinking...

    Grand 1 Yacht

    Hi! We did not. In fact, I'm not sure the Grand is sailing right now. But I would love to do this some day!

    June Vs August?

    We’ve been both months and prefer June. Both are hot, but August always seems worse to us and more rainy (with risk of hurricane). August will be a little less crowded, but we have found the June crowds to be tolerable.

    Pontoon viewing Fireworks??? Who’s done this?

    We did the MK experience twice. Once it was perfect, offering a little tour around the lagoon and a unique view of the fireworks. The other time it was foggy and we couldn’t see anything. They gave us a full refund (without us even asking). I highly reccomend. It was really fun for our family...

    Boma…not sure what to think now after latest vid

    We had breakfast and dinner there in December and both were wonderful. We felt that the experiences were just as good as pre-Covid.

    Can I buy Genie+ before AP is activated?

    We are activating our APs tomorrow when we arrive at Epcot. Will I be able to purchase Genie+ after midnight tonight, even though it’s not activated? We are planning to take advantage of early hours, since we’re staying on-site, hoping to get a jump on the crowds. I’m thinking it might be best...
