    Pre-boarding with Southwest Airlines

    My friend, who uses a wheelchair permanently, always preboards. She is able to bring one person with her. She uses her chair to get to the seat on the plane and then transfer to the airplane seat. Then her wheelchair is gate checked. When we arrive at our destination, we are the last ones off...

    ECV Rental to Wyndham Bonnet Creek

    Just did this twice in December. We used Buena Vista Rentals. We also rented a minivan. We rented the portable scooter so we could take it apart to put it in the back. Once you do it once you get the hang of it. We don't normally use the Disney transportation or anything.. so it was essential to...

    Private Fireworks Cruise

    Anyone have any experience with wheelchairs or EVC's getting on the boat? I have a friend who uses a wheelchair for her everyday and my sister will be just getting over foot surgery and will still require an EVC. My friend in the wheelchair can lift herself out of the chair and transfer but...

    Is a mid-day break still doable?

    As others have said, the mid-day break is quite doable. I've even stayed off property and done it. I like getting there early and doing a bunch of stuff before the crowds arrive, which happens to be the hottest part of the day! I get on out of there! I love going back to the room and relaxing. I...

    Last Minute Trip: Should I stay one more night?

    Hello! I'm starting a new job later this month but I wanted to "reward" myself with a quick Disney trip. I'm going to MNSSHP for the first time on 8/18. I'm gonna fly in on Thursday, go to the party on Friday and then I'm stumped. I can fly home Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning. Obviously...

    Your best “beat the heat” products

    I can just reiterate what other posters have said.. -Love the cooling towels they sell in the park. I like to wet them in the hotel and put in a ziploc bag. Then that bag goes in the fridge for a bit. Keeps them cold even longer! Just know if they're really wet your shirt will have wet spots in...

    Backpacks on rides

    Same.. I always carry one of the Loungefly bags and always end up putting my "inside foot" through the straps... just in case. Never had an issue! Also, you can get Blister pads. I found some at Meijer (not sure if they have them where you are) and they're great! I always carry some, in my...

    Is Guardians of the galaxy jerky or smooth?

    I get motion sickness all of the time.. and I was really nervous about this ride... especially since I rode during a preview. I did take some non-drowsy Dramamine that day.. just to be sure. But I was fine! As everyone has said, its so smooth. I had a blast! I even went and rode it again!
