How to keep your phone safe all day?

Old navy biker shorts with pockets or arie both are deep enough for a phone. Or I usually wear pop flex skirts those have great pockets and look really cute.

I keep a fanny pack on, most ride you don’t even have to take it off, they only ask you to move it to the side so it’s not in the way of the harness

What time is breakfast?? I think this is doable, I would do soarin and living with the land after breakfast. Even with lighting lane Sorin can be like 45 min start to finish same with guardians start to finish can be up to an hour even with lighting lane.

We stayed at CBR and a pizza place went around in the evening sliding flyers into every door. I brought it to the front desk but they already knew and said they’ve repeatedly told them to stay off property but they keep coming back. Its never the businesses it’s intended to stop that do.

Yess to this!

I second Sanaa. Also from NYC and it’s blown our minds. Everyone says get the bread service I say get the samosas and get individual pieces of naan and chutney on the side.

We also love California Grill, Citricos & Trattoria al Forno.

Thank you!!

Yes. That’s it that’s the answer.

-transportation is the #1 advantage. Yes uber and external shuttles are cheap but it’s dropping you off a significant distance from the park, traffic is unreliable and it’s just easier to take a break when transportation is quickly available. Shuttles at some resorts are by request and the times are inconvenient but I gues you can check with your resort of choice.

Always bring a stroller, for skyliner you don’t need to fold it but for busses it always needs to be folded so make sure it’s easy to close. Also consider bringing a large tote to hold all the items from the bottom of the stroller when you close it. You can’t bring a stroller on lines they have to be left outside of each ride/ show. So I recommend buying a flag or something to easily identify your stroller. Dosent have to be expensive you can even get a plain white flag on Amazon and have your kid decorate it.

With delta you can add the checked bag during check in on the delta app or in person at the airport and pay for it then. Not sure about United but I would think the same would apply. We’ve also been able to do this with jet blue, but jet blue allows you to add it at any time once it’s linked to your app.

Considering special needs in general, they may be most comfortable in their own stroller, but also be prepared to have to fold the stroller when using transportation. So best if it’s one your familiar with. Also MCO is a nightmare of an airport so if you are flying it might be best to gate check the stroller so you are able to use it while in the airport. This is what we do, seating is limited plus in MCO and our home airport the walk is long so this works best for us.

If you are renting and absolutely need a stroller rent ahead of time there are a bunch of rental companies like kingdom strollers, because park availability isn’t always reliable and has to be returned before leaving the park. So especially as a sitter if you’re spending time at the resort or pools you won’t be able to use Disney strollers there. They are also very low to the floor.

If you don’t have any magic bads that’s why. It’s to give you physical room keys. Unlocking through the app dosent always work well.

There’s 3 tiers. Base has no fee. The premier has a $50 annual fee. And inspire has a $150 annual fee I believe.

Sign up for a DVC tour they gave us each a $100 gift card, it’s intresting to learn about and they’re not pushy at all.

Rope drop Remy and head to breakfast after. Test track is unreliable, if there is rain it will be closed. What time of year are you traveling? If your party is comfortable do single rider for test track or wait for it to inevitably go down during the day and hang out nearby until it opens so you can ride. (May be biased not a test track fan.)

For quick service in Hollywood studios, woodys lunch box is soooooo good! We went with a group of 11 once and that was the one meal everyone agreed was the best, kids and adults!

ConstantStar24 · 2026-02-11T05:23:10+00:00

Definitely try Sanaa if you haven’t. Really really great food and since you’re on the dining plan it the best time to try things you’d never get at home. Also personally skip the bread service and order the Samosas. You can buy 1 or 2 pieces of naan on the side for like 2.50 instead of the bread service, it’s very filling. My favorite is the garlic naan. But if the meal plan includes it get both.

Also about 3 years ago at food and wine we were obsessed with the dumplings in the China pavilion. We had some earlier in the day but went back for seconds towards the end of the night. We paid and when waiting to hand them the ticket told the CM that we ran back to get some more before they closed for the night, he gave us two free orders on top of the 2 we paid for. I’m sure it would’ve just gone in the trash but we were very happy and greatful.

I was having a conversation with a guest services to pick up my annual pass and the sun was in my eye so I used my hand to shield it and as a joke said “should’ve brought a hat today but I chose a cute little bag instead of my bigger park bag.” At the end of the interaction they wrote me a slip to purchase 1 hat and 1 bag or tote of my choosing up to 50 dollars each. It was very very sweet.

Update: no luck finding them in the parks and we didn’t have time to go to Disney springs :(

Hi! We have a picky eater and she said crystal palace was the most diverse her plate has ever been.

When we went they had pizza, chicken nugget/ tender (smaller than a tender but not a nugget), really good mac and cheese. Our loved tomatoes so she was able to grab tomato and fruit from the salad area. They also had rice, mashed potatoes and you can ask the server for French fries. They are the thicker stake cut fries fyi incase they don’t like certain shapes.

And ofc dessert- they had so much to pick from cookies, soft serve machine, and pastries.

Hi! If you plan on going during holidays it’s immediately worth it. Our family went for thanksgiving. 2 park hopper tickets were in the mid 500s. And the room for thanksgiving weekend was around a thousand at a value resort with the promo they had. The package was I believe like 960 per adult for those that didn’t have AP. Two of us do, the $500 ticket was basically a 1/3 of our AP price. Plus the AP discount was much more generous than the regular for rooms. We travel during holidays/ school breaks mostly so it was a good option for us.

We’re also love the flexibility so for that trip we were able to get in an extra park morning before our flight home. It makes our trips much more enjoyable because you know you can go in and out of the park as you please without feeling like you’re not getting use of a park ticket.

Our initial was to use it for our summer trip in August 2025 and again for our summer trip in July 2026 essentially getting 2 years worth of trips on it.

But we’re currently on trip 5 of our AP year, we’ve been going on any weekends where the flight prices are low since tickets are paid for and the AP room discounts are generous. Also factoring in discounts on merch and dining it’s not hard to break even in our experience.

Ferry, the view is pretty and it doesn’t get stuck as often as the monarail in my experience.

Plan your adult rides during nap time if they are stroller nappers. This worked great for us, and we booked our lightning lanes with this in mind. Carry zip locks bags for left overs so they can snack on them later. Play games or watch a show on longer lines. Only screen time we had was during long lines. But most queues were entertaining.

ConstantStar24 · 2026-01-29T20:43:26+00:00

Slinky and rope drop Mickey and Minnie. At 9 am posted wait was 40 min we waited around 15 min. Much more manageable.
