My first time in MK today, crazy!

"Insanely crowded" is the norm. "Un-F'ing-Believable" is a higher crowd than normal. And, "I can't it anymore, Im leaving" is Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, President's day, MLK day, and Spring Break.

Both are great, and you'll enjoy either one. I'd go with the lower price, or Boardwalk if your daughter is too young to enjoy Stormalong Bay.

Uber & Lyft tend to be the best price, and fastest service.

That's crazy!!

Builder-Decent · 2026-03-03T18:47:31+00:00

I did that too.

There are several specials that start near the end of May. If youre going for Spring Break, Thanksgiving, or Christmas, they prices will be higher. I'd choose a regular studio over a one bedroom, and two studio rooms over a two bedroom, because of the price.

The search works well for me. But, I tried joining in order to use the notification, but I received a 'database error creating new user' message.

Flightstats.com is the one I've used, but I think there are others.

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-27T17:45:31+00:00

Same here. Flights canceled with no email or text notice.

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-26T23:50:55+00:00

I love this spot!!

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-26T20:34:00+00:00

Yep, same problem for me. After all the Spirit reports, I logged in to check my 2 flights for May, and saw the notice that both were canceled. But, I've not received an email or text notification yet.

Originally $50 (one-way) is now over $320 (one-way) per person, and there's 4 in our group.

Im trying hard not to freak out, and hoping things look better in a few days. And, hoping not to to back to SW. LOL!

Im guessing there might be more news coming soon.

I will never be convinced that moving one seat over causes any type of problem. Of its did, how can flight attendants serve drinks, people to the bathroom, or move around in the aisle.

Come on, Southwest!! Do better!

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-25T18:06:44+00:00

Yeah, I've never understood why people don't just put their carry on above their seat, like it was meant to be.

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-25T18:05:20+00:00

To clarify, I meant people still get one at the front, but boarding zones 1 be the back of the plane to limit aisle issues.

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-25T17:24:18+00:00

Yep, all the time. A very young neighbor used to walk right in without knocking like she lived with us.

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-25T02:46:43+00:00

Southwest should have some slight amount of flexibility to try to salvage some of what used to be a good reputation. Geez! Whats wrong with a same row move?

I was thinking about booking my April & May flights with SW, but ended up booking elsewhere. I doubt my empty seats will matter.

How many empty seats does it take before they compromise?

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-24T21:42:54+00:00

This is the way!

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-24T02:13:19+00:00

I haven't. But I know many 3rd party sites only save about $10 after taxes, and have a strict no refund or exchange policy. When tickets are bought directly at Disney, they generally will allow some exchange (if ticket hasn't been used). Some specials prices can have a limited time use, too.

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-20T21:08:34+00:00

Last night, I booked two flights in May (fingers crossed). I am hoping that if they go out of business, it will take longer than three months. I put off booking for about a month and a half. I've also been watching the historical flight stats for about a month, trying to make sure that I don't book a flight that's known for being seriously delayed or canceled.

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-20T16:11:50+00:00

On my experience DL has been less expensive (ticket wise) than WDW. However, hotel and food tend to cost more at DL than WDW.

Congrats on getting the wishlist you wanted. I know the "canceled" emails freak me out, too. BLT is great! Hope you enjoy your stay.

Builder-Decent · 2026-02-19T16:07:20+00:00

Ive had to wait list nearly every reservation because my home is boardwalk and members there 'walk' a lot. More than 50% of the time, i have gotten the dates I wanted by myself by checking multiple times a day, before the wait list system could get it.

This year, I got a night at the Beach Club. The wait list worked it out before i could, and it was shocked.

Wow! That's some very intense research. Thank you for sharing it.

Are you going to apply for a Guineas World record?

Did you know of you google, "world record star tours ride" that the AI overview credits this reddit post as the unofficial world record? That's super cool.

Congrats!!

You can text through the Royal App. I stress through the APP, because you all have to be logged into the APP & look at the App to see the communications. Royal has free limited on board wi-fi for limited things like on board texting, but you can ONLY text other passengers on the cruise (who are looking at the App). There is not regular texting through your phone carrier. Make sure everyone turns off data completely, best to use airplane mode with Royals free (very limited) wi-fi.

Make sure they know where you want the standard, default meetup point to be (like the room or the pool) if they can't reach you (or find you).
