    Which attraction for first ever ride?

    1st ride ever at WDW? My votes are Haunted Mansion or Pirates (unless you're first arriving in summer, midday - then I'd say Splash Mountain)...

    Reagan Airport (DC) Parking Help

    Just a warning - parking at DCA tends to be pricey (at least compared with IAD) - there are some private/offsite lots in Crystal City that may be a better deal (and they have shuttles). You could try ParkingPanda.com or SpotHero.com and shop around...

    Oasis class questions? Here to help!

    Hi! Question about the Teen programming... My daughter is 14 soon to be 15 (High School student). I told her she would be in the age 12-14 group (to which she gave me the stink eye)! How strict are they with age groups? And Thanks for your offer of help!

    RoTR and a mildly bad back

    OK Early Riders - if my mom has mild/moderate back issues, is RoTR OK for her to ride? Or should she skip this one? Thanks!

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    I have never stayed at CBR (but have reservations there for Summer 2020). Question - WHY is the bus system different at Jamaica and Aruba vs the other areas? Isn't it the same bus system for the entire complex? Thanks!

    Skyliner Reliability Tracking

    Thanks. I'll keep my fingers crossed that they start running it earlier -- and if not, perhaps I will splurge on Uber/Lyft for HS EMH/RD (rather than relying on the bus)..

    Skyliner Reliability Tracking

    Thanks everyone!! What about morning EMH? Right now is it bus only? (Or is the Skyliner opening up in time?)

    Skyliner Reliability Tracking

    Thanks everyone. I am encouraged by your stories! I hope they consider opening the line earlier (so you can use it for morning EMH at Epcot))...

    Skyliner Reliability Tracking

    I'm trying to decide whether I want to keep reservations at CBR. My primary reason for staying there is the convenience of the Skyliner system. If the system is unreliable, then I would prefer to stay elsewhere on property. I'm hoping that folks who are visiting Disney over the coming months...

    Disney+ --> subtitles seem to be the default setting

    Tried a couple videos and both started with subtitles (had to click an option in each one to remove the subtitles). Does anyone know if there's a default setting someplace? Thanks.

    Any one rethinking the sky liner?

    Potentially rethinking. We have a Summer trip planned (as of now, reservations at CBR). My concern is the frequency (and length) of stoppages. We don't go to Disney all that often, so I want to minimize transportation time (waiting/transit). Thankfully I have many months to see how things...

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    Hello! Does anyone happen to know how Instacart works at CBR? Do they deliver to your room or to the front desk? If your room, do you know how "wide" the delivery window is? I've never used Instacart before, but was thinking I might try it for our next Disney trip. Thanks!

    Disney's CARIBBEAN BEACH RESORT Information & Questions

    Would both Aruba 55 and Jamaica 41 be considered "standard" rooms right now? (Planning to stay at CBR for the first time in Summer 2020...) Thanks!

    Throw away FP+ @ HS

    Related question (long winded)... Make believe scenario... Let's say I am taking a Summer 2020 trip, and I only sign up for two FPs ahead of time - for argument sake, Star Tours at 3pm and ROTR at 4pm (I am pretending that ROTS gets FP at some point, just humor me...). We tap in at Star...

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

    Hello! I am looking for tips on when/how/where to get good $ rates for Summer 2020. (I don't have AAA, am not military, do belong to Costco, do have a Marriott membership although I haven't actually stayed in a Marriott in years so I don't have any points...) Is there a post someplace in...

    Bus wait times on MDE - accuracy?

    YES! We certainly experienced that the last time we visited! Some nights we had quite a long wait... (I think the next time we go, I may just automatically opt for paid transportation some evenings... rather than waiting for a bus to arrive...)

    Bus wait times on MDE - accuracy?

    Thanks. That's helpful to know. Well, I am thinking of using Uber/Minnie vans sometimes - if I knew a bus was coming in a couple minutes, then I'd probably save some $ and skip the paid transportation... based on what I'm hearing, we can use MDE for trips from the "home" resort (but not...
