I requested B1 on Soarin’ in May and one cast member told me they can’t take requests right now. Then another cast member overheard and asked me where I wanted to be and was able to accommodate! So nice of her!

This wasn’t a seat request, but after previously having terrible seats on Soarin’, my family wound up right on the cusp of getting in row B1. The CM opened the chain and started with the family right behind us. I told my kids, “Awww…we were SO CLOSE!” The CM overheard and turned to us to let us in. We ended up in the middle of B1 thanks to a kind CM.

Disney has sold Fast Passes before Covid. When staying Club Level at Disney deluxe resorts you had the option to purchase 3 extra Fast Passes per day at the cost of $50 for the three passes. I don't know how popular they were but I do remember having them offered to us and hearing some talk about it on the boards.

We used to pack our park bags and then just go to the parks right off the magical express. Now it’s going to be an added hour. Same with the early airline check in… really disappointed and hoping they bring back a similar service when they re design the magical express to whatever other company

One Day we had a wristband that we showed and we got to go in the fast pass lane and the other day it was a little paper card with the fast pass rides listed on it that the cast members at the entrance crossed off the ride you had tried (so you could only use it once). So Disney has offered paid fast passes before .

It is the same concept they have at Universal with their Express Pass. The “Lightning Pass” will be a ticket add on and might cost somewhere between $200-$300 dollars or more.

Asking nicely absolutely helps. Cast members encounter so many rude and pushy people in each day that anyone that is remotely friendly to them is a refreshing change of pace. They still may not be able to accommodate but being kind goes a long way for them, and it at least takes the worry of being yelled at for having to say no off them!

Just got back from a week long stay at WDW, was it just me or were a lot of rides experiencing technical issues and were the parks a little more “messy” than usual? Our Rise of the Resistance ride completely crashed and froze up in the initial transport phase, only to be inserted back into a ride that had several additional glitches and failures. I requested a fast-pass “free” ride to accommodate the failed experience but was DECLINED since the majority of the ride still operated. Not the Disney I used to know…

I found the wait times were always high in the app. It’s more of a guessing game since they can’t scan those cards on lanyards they hand out randomly

Note for when they do come back, you book them in advance, so even if they were running you wouldn't have got one leaving it this late, they are 60/90 days in advance and they fill up quickly. Doing it the week before would have left you with no available fastpasses for any of the rides you would have needed them for.

For future trips, make sure you're checking the Disney World site frequently so you don't find yourself surprised by things like this! Rules and policies change all the time and it's important to keep brushed up on them to keep your trip as smooth as possible. Fastpasses have not been available since March of 2020, and you might need to know some of the other things going on in the parks before you go right now.

Tip: Be sure to book your restaurant reservations NOW if you want to eat at any table service restaurant. Many will be full already. If you re planning to eat at QS, be sure to book your lunch when you enter the park in the morning. Kirsty is right, though. If you have a trip after Fast PAsses return (I think they will, given several glitches I've seen in the MDE app), book your FP for rides 60 or 90 days ahead (whichever is allowed).

@@grmnkiiier In my experience at Disneyland, non hotel guests do line up very early despite watching the hotel guests go in so it doesn't change them lining up an hour early so they can be in the first of non hotel in the park with "lower lines" than later in morning.

Baggage handling and resort shopping delivery were the best reasons to go to Disney over the not-Disney parks in Orlando. Now I just don’t buy as much because I have to lug it around the park and back to the airport. It’s a bummer for everyone involved except my checking account.

AJ - I know you hate the buffets (we hear your mumbles, LOL), but I have to say that I loved the buffet in Epcot's Germany... We could sample all the German food with none of the commitment of the Family Style meals. I know what you mean about buffets being gone would be okay, but I hope they do bring that one back, at the very least.
@lissamk3990
@lissamk3990 3 жыл бұрын
I agree. I feel the family style meals result in a lot of wasted food for my family and because I feel badly about that, we never eat at the restaurants that have that style meal anymore. Other places are bringing back buffets, but with employees doing the serving from them. Maybe WDW might consider that as a possibility in the future.
