7 Things You Should NEVER DO At Disneyland

[@malachirice3229]

As a Disney security officer thank you for making this video cause lots of people don’t know about the chairs. Also selfie sticks

[@provostparkpass]

Oh man. We love security at PPP. You guys and gals are the BEST💙💚

[@rh5563]

Any way to quell the incoming of unauthorized items. This video might save you some breath, telling people they have to go put that item back in their car.

[@ritaloy8338]

Yes and NEVER bring in any glass bottles.

[@Short_one41]

Thank you so much Malachi rice for being a Disney security officer 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@workingmothercatlover6699]

I didn't know about wagons until we were approaching security our first day. The security guy was kind enough to let us stash the wagon at the stroller and wheelchair rental, that day only. Frankly, we were all impressed that our youngest could spend the whole day in Disney and still walk 2-3 blocks to the hotel. We also didn't know about duct tape. My teenage son has a small roll of black duct tape with him all the time. I told him to leave it in the room, and when we got to security, it was confiscated.

7.Bring brand new shoes 6.Parade planning 5.Use genie plus for short lines 4.Dress up as a character 3.Not rest and drink water 2.Wait in line for food (use the mobile order) 1.Don’t be rude to cast members

[@stevepd1]

Thank you. Saved me so much time and no listening to corny jokes.

[@charlespruitt2391]

The shoe joke was hilarious 😂, ❤👍🏼

[@ari3lz3pp]

🥺 I forgot my shoes at home and only ad flip flops. So I had to buy shoes there. EXPENSIVE shoes I'd never buy otherwise. Lol Was bad. I was so upset with myself and they were not comfortable. Now they are thankfully, good casual shoes for around the neighborhood. But such good advice! Also shoes get dirty fast in the crowds.

[@AdamConus]

Shoe Humor...Shumor.

[@lightningdemolition1964]

I don't know, I think it fell a little flat.

[@CTladiesman]

That’s a joke?

[@Caleb-zt5ht]

Two things I liked that you hit on Chris: being kind to cast members and taking breaks with your family. I know with my kid we have to take a mid day break if we want our trip to go well. I'd rather not to get to go on as many rides rather than us be all cranky because our son got cranky because he was tired. And the cast members truly are amazing! They are human like us and I know I wouldn't want to help someone if they were yelling at me (especially for something I didn't do or have no control over).

[@CLEMANSJK]

A cast member overheard my hubby and I talking about the line being long at monsters Inc, it was pouring rain, my toddler was sleep in the stroller and my daughter wanted to ride it really bad, she walked up to us and gave us a special pass thaf allowed us to go into a different entrance to the ride and skip the line. It was very thoughtful ❤

[@RhodeIslandDude]

When I was at Disney with my family, the employees did the same exact thing for me. I love the Disney employees. They do a lot for their customers.

[@CLEMANSJK]

@@RhodeIslandDude yes! It was so kind !!!

[@ninaryan2012]

Cast members are awesome!

[@Yer_blue_angel]

I was standing in line for monsters with my parents too and we and another group in front of us were complaining as well. They let so many fast pass people go through, it’s really not fair

[@CLEMANSJK]

@@Yer_blue_angel I Always felt bad fast passing because I never knew how long the other had to wait.

[@itsjustjuice184]

Not sure if someone mentioned it but remember that there is a cast compliment option on the app now so if you have a great experience you can give them a compliment and it goes in their record. I gave one to someone directing traffic for an upcoming cavalcade when I was there last weekend.

[@mishkalarsoncreations]

As a former cast member, thank you so much for making number one number one because I can’t tell you how many times I finish my night after trying to make a magic moment for somebody or especially trying to do crowd control before a parade or before the firework show and be totally bummed out because I got yelled at for not letting ones stand where they wanted to stand or not letting one cut the line when they didn’t have a special pass when they were an adult and I just let a couple of little kids go through to make a magic moment for them so thank you for making number one number one on your list

[@jbarwick50]

Even in this day and age there are ppl who were taught NO MANNERS growing up! I couldn’t imagine being rude to any Disney character! Grew up on Disneyland. Every Sunday night my family would be glued to the TV at 7pm-back in the late 60’s and living in the country we only had 3 tv stations and no “cable” TV 😳

[@sorenoverby]

We like to take an autograph book for characters AND cast members to sign! Whenever we had a great experience with a cast member we would ask them to sign it and the response is always, “really? Wow!” Helps us remember all those magical moments they help create.

[@womanofacertainage5892]

What a great idea! :)

[@ambersimms6069]

What a beautiful gesture! Thank you for leaving this tip. I will definitely ask cast members for their autograph. That will help me to remember to leave them a positive review when we get home.

[@sorenoverby]

@@ambersimms6069 Exactly! It is easy to overlook those small moments with cast members and remember who to thank.

[@ourcreativebeehive]

As a Castmember mom, I bring treats. I bring individually wrapped candy, little notes, Character items (like the little ducks you find $1) character friends love getting these. Tokens to say thank you.

[@robertbeermanjr.2158]

I have never seen this channel before. Excellent job and a real public service. Thank you.

[@RichardJordanBlack]

Thanks for another great video. We just got back from Ca for a trip. We did Disneyland and Ca Adventure. We got to do Oggie Boogey Bash 1 day. (Totally worth it) no lines that day. Cast Members were amazing to us especially with the younger ones we had on the trip.

[@equalknight9992]

Chris you’re the nicest person on KZbin by far! Keep spreading your positivity it’s contagious… Much love for you Amanda and Myles

[@Freddles279]

Agreed!! I've said it before... Chris is the KZbin version of Mr. Rogers.

[@andredantu6664]

Thank you Chris. I’m in Australia and my wife and I just recently decided to plan a trip to Disney. We are in our 50’s! Better late than never. We found your videos so helpful. There is a lot of information out there but your videos cut through. Also and more importantly You are; 1. Kind 2. Humble 3. Passionate 4. Informative 5. Servant hearted 6. Encouraging 7. Real These are my 7 things about Chris that shine through in your videos. I wanted to thank you for the great information and what you are doing to help people and encourage them also. Bless you. Andre and Rachaelle.

[@carameljenkins]

My girlfriend and I are local pass holders as Disneyland, and go often after work. We always make it a point to be friendly to all the cast members, especially security and cleaning staff (who legit works their hearts out), and say thank you and have a great day. I can only imagine it's exhausting work. So I'm really really glad that you have being kind to cast members as your #1 thing to do. Outside of a possible handout, it's just the best human thing to do.

[@adoredace]

Chris! Me and my family, (party of 7) visited Disneyland the day of you filming the “galactic grill vlog” My little sister was the girl standing at your table watching you while you eat, waiting for you to finish because it saw you were almost done and your huge table was perfect for our party of 7. I remember she called me and my family saying she got a table. My sister ran up to my mom and was so excited and yelled, “I saw provost park pass!! He was sitting at the table before us and talking to his home about how easy it is to order off the mobile app!! I even talked to him! He is so nice!! It really made her day Chris. She even sat at the same chair you did.

[@chrisanntoelupe984]

I love what you said about being kind to cast members. Cast members work so hard. They deserve our kindness, respect, and gratitude. A smile and thank you go a long ways. ❤

[@richarddelgado8913]

Something else I forgot to add is that I appreciate your words of encouragement I appreciate it and I'm sure others do as well...

[@joeleon5009]

These were some great tips you covered Chris. One rule I'd like to point out is the mobile ordering food rather than standby. I was mobile ordering from Red Rose Tavern and something comes up where it won't let me proceed. I went up to a cast member and told them about it and they sent me into the standby queue. Personally, I like to order in the standby queue and it goes smoother. Another rule you hit was treating cast members with respect. They are the magic makers who make our day go by so smoothly. When I saw them last year, I was giving them my hugest love and support and they appreciated it so much.

[@leeanaandino5343]

As a Cast Member on Main Street, thank you! You’re always a pleasure to see & bring a smile to our day. Thank you for reminding guests be kind to each other

[@meganlove5453]

also on a cast member at main thank you.

[@allisonfields6357]

I couldn’t agree with #1 more! My son is a cast member in Disney World. He make Magic every single day. These cast members are phenomenal and need to be recognized more for it. I have a shirt that I wear each time I go visit that says “Be Nice to Cast Members” I will be wearing it in December when I go to Disneyland and in January when I go to pick up my son from the Disney College Program.

[@carmel1631]

What a great shirt!

[@JetHawk]

Sounds like a passive aggressive shirt towards Karen’s. I’m not gonna be nice to a cast member who won’t let me on rise of the resistance.

[@paulgran4593]

Totally right about the footware. All the walking and standing in lines takes a toll on your feet.

[@robinclark2898]

Thank you, I was a cast member (retired) at WDW.

[@biffbeefly]

Thank you for stopping and telling us that you appreciate us and that we individually are awesome. Made my day hearing that

[@kristenhoffarth9039]

I am a Disney fan through and through and these seven tips were very helpful. Agreed with all of them.

[@frankc.6419]

I went last Thurs Oct.13th to Disneyland and I was looking for you sir. Wanted to thank you personally for all the help your vids are. Esp. when you talk to everyone and say how important they are. wanted to return the favor. hopefully next time!! Saludos from Woodlake,CA.

[@Sillypaws]

3:03 I really needed to hear that, so thank you Chris, you are one of the purest people on KZbin anymore, so thank you :)

[@meliciousadventures]

Great tips! The Cast Members have made so many magic moments for our family on trips, especially our special needs adult son. We bring small gifts to give out as often as possible on each trip to thank them for doing their jobs so well.

[@stuartturner5095]

Thanks for all your insights!!! I took my family of 5 last February for 2 weeks just Disneyland staying at the Disneyland Hotel, and your advice certainly helped!!! And order your food through the APP!!!! Now I just look through your video’s to bring back the memories!!!

[@robertbrehm3986]

Loved the self worth pep talk. I took it to heart. Thanks!

[@samanthaivie5572]

I thought the message you put during your video about how you care about your viewers was very sweet, can’t wait to go to Disneyland here soon watching your videos has helped a lot!

[@reneap9049]

So interesting! Love your Disney videos, so helpful as we are planning to take our 7 yr old granddaughter to Disney this summer!!

[@2ThumbsUpchurch]

Thanks for the info and very kind words! You and your family are the sweetest ever - ❤️Angie

[@mattcomposer]

I found the mobile order to be tricky last time I was there and realized you had to plan ahead a bit more. All of the return windows were at least a half hour later and so we just opted to stand in line and we were actually sitting down with our food faster than our return window would have even come. Not sure what was going on there, but I guess on crowded days even the mobile order is overwhelmed. Love your videos! You genie plus tricks made our trip awesome!

[@Cockerham]

I think mobile order is set up so that you don't _skip_ the food line, you just don't have to _stand in_ the food line. You can people watch or sightsee while you wait for your return window.

[@LJC123]

Yup, same thing happened to me a few weeks ago. Wanted to MO food, but return times were so far out and I was too hungry to wait that long! So I just got in line and had my food long before the first return time would have been! MO is good in theory, but parks r too crowded for it to work well. ☹️

[@bonwatcher]

Used to be an annual passholder and I have been asked to fill out a survey many times. Every visit I always watched, listened and found one cast member to thank by writing a nice comment for them. It wasn't easy because it is likely you will find many cast members that deserve praise every visit. 👏

[@tjohnson-wooten8987]

Thanks Chris! I appreciate you mentioning recency bias, it's so true. It happened to me during our vacation at Magic Kingdom

[@BettimusFrostCafe]

I find it easier to take shoes you're going to be comfortable in all day. I took tennis shoes that I already broke in. But by miday of day 2, I found it hard to keep up and my feet hurt so much. Day 3 I switched to my normal vans I was so used to wearing, and it wasn't so rough. Still tired from the day before but not as painful. Thankfully i still had a good time 🤎💜💙

[@Laurajoymarie]

Cast member's are the best. My mother and i had paid for the special viewing sections for Fantastmic, but we didn't realize that in those areas you had to sit on the ground, due to her knee and back problems this would have been impossible for her to get down and sit on the ground. We had a cast member go above and beyond for us and we were able to sit in the chairs in the VIP section. We were so beyond grateful to this cast member who worked so hard to help us. What could have been a very disappointing evening (and a waste of money), turned out to be a highlight of our trip.

[@sweetpjess]

I love you finally talked about SHOES!!! Seriously feet issues are my biggest issue in the park. It has taken trip after trip to finally find shoes that don't wreck my feet.

[@dherko]

The middle of the day break for the kids is a must do. I go back to the room and nap for a bit in the hottest part of the day and makes the evening so much better

[@terraprice8928]

Awe what happen to the Sully shoes? So agree with the whole list. Thanks for all the great content!!! 💯❤

[@amanchaurasia101]

@Provost . A big shout out to your videos and all the efforts you put in making them. We watched your Disneyland videos and all the tips of dos-dont in the park. Our first trip to Disneyland with my family including 2 kids was awesome. We finished all the rides (minus Star Wars) on DAY 1 by following 101 rule of covering fantasyland immediately after rope drop. By the time it was 10AM, our fantasy land was finished. Then we started using Genie+ to book Tomorrowland rides. Two rides were non-operational and we booked them via Genie+ and got FastPasses that we used for Indiana Jones and Pirates. Skipped Parade and Firework on day 1. Day 2 was relaxing with nice food experiences and all the shows , Paraded, Firework and Fantastamic. Thanks again for your tips. They really helped us a lot. CHEErs!!!!!

[@dankonishi9644]

I loved your mobile order song. I’m gonna sing this to my kids when we are at Disneyland this Sunday. So excited! Thanks again for all your helpful tips! Always enjoy your videos and your jokes!

[@HomeChefRichie]

Do Do! I agree with all of your tips! For Mobile Ordering, I would add with that system, you can arrive at a location and get sat down ASAP, even if you still have time before your order is ready. As I go solo most often, I love being able to get a seat, then order and have a seat to eat. I love the notion of being kind to cast members. I've been enjoying Disney Parks for 55 years now, and I have the utmost respect and appreciation for the cast at the parks. I've even found that if I engage with them and ask them to notice my Son (this was years ago) or my Grand Daughter (most recently), they love it and go out of their way to make that moment memorable. I try to go out of my way to note the names of the cast that really make an effort and "report" them as rock stars at Guest Services. I appreciate your personal message in each of your vlogs. I honestly believe that can make a difference; someone somewhere needs to hear that. You're a "Rock Star" for doing it! Finally, have you done a "What's my fave thing to do while visiting the parks"? I love offering to take pictures for families so the entire family can get in the picture. Sometimes, I do this and find myself doing it for several families in a row, I don't mind it a bit, and I meet some amazing people. Keep up the excellent work! I think you're helping to make the world a better place!

[@ginamcdade5803]

Chris, as always, thanks for the many GREAT tips for a great Disney experience! I especially appreciate the cast member mention! I have a disabled son and we take him every year at Christmas and I ALWAYS send a letter to Disney management acknowledging the cast members who helped us, showed us kindness, wished him Happy Birthday, eased a difficult moment, or any other thing. It is usually a long list! We try very hard to show our own gratitude in the moment, but that letter is important to me to send every year. Thanks for keeping us "in the know" with Disney! I bet Amanda loved your shout out! 😍 Love always to you, Amanda, and Miles! 🕌

Wish you did this video 45 years ago. Waited until the last minute to find a pair of shoes for my trip, and they didn't quite fit. I met someone on the beach and we decided to take a short walk. Took a wrong turn and ended up on a 6 hour hike around Bora Bora. We hitched the last couple of miles. There was no skin left on my heels and the backs of my white canvas shoes where red. Your shoe advice is worth its wait in gold.

[@lorrig5119]

Great video as always Chris! Every time we go to DL/DCA we get the free Disney Visa card member photo taken. My girls would complain & roll their eyes. During the year of a million dreams I stopped to ask a CM where the photo spot was located and after chatting a bit she said “congratulations” and awarded us fast passes for ANY ride for the entire day for all of us. Of course my girls didn’t roll their eyes about that! I said see, it ALWAYS pays to be nice ! 🥰

[@briancrosby4572]

And 100% to the Cast Members. They make all the difference. Thanks to all the CM's who put their heart and soul into delivering a true Disney experience!

So true about wearing broken in shoes and drinking water! On my last time to WDW, I almost fainted on the line of Slinky Dog Dash while on a solo trip. I somehow got the water out of my backpack and downed it and was fine, but it was scary. My vision went white. Also on my last trip to WDW, I wore new shoes and had to sit on the floor of the bus back to the hotel (it was a stretch bus with more standing room than seats).

[@RogueCorps]

Hi Chris, very nice messages and tips and a great positive influence. Thank you! I'm so guilty of the new shoes one. It was a rainy day with waterproof sneakers and they absolutely weren't waterproof by the end of that day, and ouch.

Fantastic tips, thanks for making such a wonderful video ❤

[@gracielaguardado9426]

Totally agree. Especially with the need for breaks. My family has had a terrible time when we push my toddler beyond her nap time. Even we get cranky. The best visits are when we can get a hotel and everyone takes an afternoon siesta.

[@PhoenixVic21]

My family would do show planing for Fantasmic where we'd have a blanket, get the chowder, and have dinner while waiting for the show. Not sure if this is allowed anymore to bring a blanket to save a spot. BUT we'd have someone stay with the blanket while someone grabs food. Great chill time while waiting for the show.

I totally agree with being nice to cast members. We were going to rope drop, and got to the Disneyland front gate and was waiting. We were just talking to a cast member, nothing important just small talk like our favorite ride. Well after talking to her for 5 minutes waiting for the front gate to open, a lead came up and asked us if we would like to open Disneyland to the public. It was such a magical experience that my 13 year old daughter will never forget. The cast members make that park magical.

Great content Chris. I had my first Disneyland experience last week, and I was on the search for you every single day! I simply wanted to say THANK YOU for all the useful and genuine information. The amount of gratitude I had for your sharing of knowledge was intense. I just knew that if I saw you I would have started crying. You truly meant a ton to me on this trip! A notable experience is when it came to navigating genie plus and telling my family all the secrets and tips they were surprised at how much I knew as it made the experience a spledid time. It was team effort, and for the few days we were their, we felt that we certainly maximized our times at this Magical Place. P.S. It was two of their birthdays and I treated them to the Tenya Stone Spa (Thank you Amanda). While I was outside waiting, from my memory I remembered that you mentioned something about an amazing Peanut Butter Treat... and to my surprise it was JUST DOWN THE HALL. I walked in and their it was! I enduldge on the Peanut Butter Blondie Treat and I wish I bought more to take back home. I have been craving it every single day! Interestingly enough we got rained out once each day, and it put a damper on getting to do all the experience that we wanted to do. Rides closed and we are caught in just waiting in a line till the cue started again. What are a few things you think we could have done?

[@donaldholm8260]

My fiancée and I were at the parks in CA recently. I can’t agree more about the cast members. We had so many Genie+ questions and every cast member we asked could not have been more kind. One thing I love to do is see where each one of them is from (it’s on their name badge). If it’s somewhere I’ve never been, and there’s time, I ask them what it’s like there. It’s a good way to let them know that they’re more than just an employee of the park to me.

When I see a cast member who is looking down/haggard/peeved/upset I always just say, "hey, are you okay?" Just low-key, between the two of us. They always say they are, of course. And I sincerely thank them for all they do. Really, just treating them like a real person with real feelings doesn't happen very often in their day, sadly. Thanks for making that the number 1 thing on the list

Excellent advice on all accounts. One of the cast members I always try talk to and praise are the ones that empty the trash cans and those that sweep the walks and streets. I always tell them they have the hardest jobs and the job that most people experience , a clean, clean environment, this included the ones cleaning the restrooms. They are fantastic.

What an amazing message…thank you for reminding people they matter!

I was there to celebrate my friends college graduation and we asked a cast member if we could sit on the curb to watch the parade near It's a Small World, he took us to VIP seating 🥺❤ it was such a magical and kind experience that he didn't have to do for us!

We were just there weeks ago and didn’t realize we could only use genie plus once a day on a particular ride.

I bought the tron hat for my hubby! I got myself the backpack from online 😁

Great tips! (For some of us - great reminders)

Completely agree with number one! It goes with all jobs where there is a lot of customer facing with thousands of people a day. Cast members have made my day at Disney PERFECT so many times! We owe so much to them for keeping the parks running smoothly. Thank you for your informative light hearted wonderful videos!
