I would like to thank everyone listening to me vent this trip. I realize something about myself. I thinking I prefer small groups like no more then 4 people or solo trips. They are lonely but no one complains

100%! You couldn't pay me enough to be a WDW tour guide! My group limit is 4, my complaining/whining limit is 0.

11:00am on 5/25/26 by Ali Ababwa

I can't even reliably keep my family of 4 together all the time at Disney. It's virtually impossible to keep a larger group together unless everyone is wearing the same shirt and you're carrying a flag.

You all have expectations. Learn to go with a COMMANDO type touring plan with no expectations. You have already seen it all. I am not a fan of solo. We have 7 people on our next trip. 19 days.

12:07pm on 5/25/26 by JackOfAll

I, for one, have immensely enjoyed a solo WDW trip and I'm greatly looking forward to another in a month, completely free from any hint of "loneliness". It's liberating not to have to take care of anyone else while traveling.

12:26pm on 5/25/26 by Ali Ababwa

100% @Ali!

1:48pm on 5/25/26 by MCU3000

Amen. My solo trip was so peaceful. I am very much looking forward to our family trip, but we do not get up early or try to pack stuff in.

1:55pm on 5/25/26 by utang44

DH & I loved being just us- on a few sessions on recent trip & in 2024. Easy enough touring with our 2 high teens boys last family trip but more chilled w just us.

2:19pm on 5/25/26 by hodg

Dfil with us was like a 4yo but needing coffee stops rather than snacks- even when walking out of EP heading to topolinos bfast he wanted a Starbucks- no! Needs restrooms just as much & complains about lines as much too.

2:21pm on 5/25/26 by hodg

That's like complaining about clouds in the sky

2:24pm on 5/25/26 by Ali Ababwa

Luckily there weren't too many of those. Though it was too hot :-)

2:26pm on 5/25/26 by hodg

I can't really do disney outside my immediate family. I had the family who was exhausted from morning til night and complained about how tired they were. I suggested separating "noooo I don't know what I'm doing!" 5 minutes later "is there a lot more?"

3:25pm on 5/25/26 by Crazycatlady3

They only did the one day out of the 3 they paid for. Then went home saying disney was a rip off and they'd never go back.

3:27pm on 5/25/26 by Crazycatlady3

We did a "once in a lifetime" family trip in 2018 with 13 of us. 9 loved it so much, we've been back a ton, bought DVC, etc. 4 were exhausted, sore feet, don't plan to ever go back. Those 4 also happen to be the ones who didn't do any preparing.

4:07pm on 5/25/26 by DestinyCalled

Disney is not for everyone. I too, struggle with the "oh, whatever you think..." who end up unhappy because they had an unspoken expectation. I plan, and try to be clear with that plan and expectations. If you want something different, please speak up!

4:10pm on 5/25/26 by DestinyCalled

I'm also getting better at not OVER-planning... because even I can miss out on joy & beauty by trying to squeeze out every last drop.

4:11pm on 5/25/26 by DestinyCalled

Not just Disney - I only want to travel with my immediate family. Vacations with extended family or friends sounds like a nightmare.

5:38pm on 5/25/26 by Flutegarden

Well, I like it.

I'm team small groups!!!

9:31pm on 5/25/26 by maurine08

I once took 2 nephews and a niece- all between 13 and 16. After 3 days when we were in AK walking from EE to Dinosaur, I decided to have a fake tantrum to let them see how they had been behaving. They were mortified and were well behaved thereafter

12:30am by dfwdisfan

Solo is not for me, but we don't even try to keep our family of 5 together. We have some time all together but break up into different groups. When there with extended family, we setup things we do together as a big group.

100 percent recommend the Capture the Moment! We did Epcot yesterday and loved it so much we did MK today ! They saw my haunted mansion tattoo and said that I must be a " real fan " so they took us behind the scenes for extra pics ! They had us sign a **

We did AK CtM on my Bday 5yrs ago. Best $50 I've ever spent! We finished RIGHT before getting slammed by a storm! It was epic!

9:31pm on 5/25/26 by DestinyCalled

Accepted! So worth the money . They truly are professionals. We signed up Epcot tomorrow! Thinking Morocco might be a pretty location .

1:49am by bzdisney14

Where is a decent spot to watch fire works, projections on the castle and tinker bell without holding a spot for 45 minutes.

Hello! Can confirm SR still exists but it didn't open until about 8:30 this morning and wasn't super helpful to us for that reason. Didn't get a chance to try it.

6:26pm on 5/25/26 by rickelwoman

Thank you! That is exactly what I needed to know!

6:36pm on 5/25/26 by PrincipalTinker

No problem @PT :)

11:15pm on 5/25/26 by rickelwoman

Tomorrow's a relaxing beach day. I'm the bad guy who refused to eat with the family. I gave them 4 hours. 1-5 at 7 we want food well I'm not eating with the group. I'm guess we will have th silent car ride home

9:33pm on 5/25/26 by WorldTraveler34

Enjoy the beach. You're not cooking are you. Walk along the shore wading in the water. So relaxing

10:30pm on 5/25/26 by Magicalday2011

No I am not.

11:06pm on 5/25/26 by WorldTraveler34

So now I have a charge on my credit card that doesn't match to anything I booked today while doing LLs. I can't for the life of me make it fit anything. Any suggestions on who to call? Chat gave me the number to billing but I'm just going in circles.

4:19pm on 5/25/26 by momtwofour

Did you buy both LLmp and LLsp for the same day? I had to puzzle out my charges on the last trip bc some days those were added together into one total and other days they were separate charges.

6:13pm on 5/25/26 by kcaseybooks

Yes I did but I went through each charge and matched it to the emails I got. All were accounted for. I'm hoping it just drops off. The app was glitching so something could have easily happened

6:59pm on 5/25/26 by momtwofour

That was me, sorry!

9:06pm on 5/25/26 by Fatty McButterpants

Anyone ride Rise lately in Orlando? Wondering what all is functioning at the moment. Hoping Kylo Ren is at least moving!

Rode it 2 nights ago. Kyle wasn't working and then the whole system went down and we got evac'd off. However earlier in the day it was fine.

2:13pm on 5/25/26 by cobia

Feb they were still stationary but I do not go very often to DLR but maybe I be getting a CDL in a DLR zip soon. So this may change.

8:05pm on 5/25/26 by JackOfAll

DL cannons (and everything else) were working Saturday.

Thanks @jack, that's a lot more of the same than I expected.

6:56pm on 5/24/26 by popupcamper

I'm not surprised with the track being identical. I guess most of the theming is in preshow.

10:04pm on 5/24/26 by cdlla

I expected more too. Not Muppets in LA.

8:11pm on 5/25/26 by JackOfAll

Can someone tell me where you order bottled water from to be delivered to your resort without a ginormous mark up?! Or is that just what it is?

Amazon Fresh

4:47pm on 5/25/26 by JenniferB1975

I door dashed. Was perfect, just had to meet them, but they came about 1/2 hour after I called. Easy

7:12pm on 5/25/26 by mnfc

I use Water Butler. They shop Walmart, Publix and other local stores. $10 delivery fee if you don't spend $100. They don't deliver alcohol. But will deliver drinks and food.

7:57pm on 5/25/26 by Meech

Are the crowd levels accurate today at AK

11:46am on 5/25/26 by jeremy19

collapse thread

Hi @jeremy! A day when AK is not expected to be a 7? How unusual! I don't think we will know until TP reports tomorrow but this is the usual highest wait times of the day. Most likely much lower later. People waiting for Bluey tomorrow?

11:54am on 5/25/26 by PrincipalTinker

I'll be interested to learn how the 7:00 am virtual queue goes and how many families will take to social media with their "devastation" at being "excluded".

12:01pm on 5/25/26 by Ali Ababwa

Based on TP's crowd level info page, I'd say the CL is probably higher than the estimated 4. Tomorrow TP will post the "actual" based on what they see today. https://c.touringplans.com/animal-kingdom/crowd-levels

12:01pm on 5/25/26 by utang44

Do you think it's high or low? I'm actually thinking those w/o small kids might be flocking there today to avoid the madness of little kids seeing Bluey.

12:26pm on 5/25/26 by Flutegarden

I've seen hints of a very limited soft opening for Bluey today, anyone there that can confirm?

12:27pm on 5/25/26 by Ali Ababwa

Yes, I too have been reading that there is a soft opening today. I would guess that could increase crowds.

12:37pm on 5/25/26 by PrincipalTinker

Just leaving AK and it seemed higher to me. Everest line built a bit faster than a typical moderate day. Just my feel! Also was a back up to scan for early entry right at 7:30. We still got 5 EE rides in with minimal wait so we were happy.

2:25pm on 5/25/26 by rickelwoman

They changed the SR line for EE so that may explain that one.

5:39pm on 5/25/26 by Flutegarden

Shldnt that improve the standby line tho? Just kills the SR line

5:42pm on 5/25/26 by hodg

Was the single rider line still there?

5:43pm on 5/25/26 by PrincipalTinker

Early reports of the Bluey soft opening describe Disney pandemonium: https://www.facebook.com/share/1LBekmxmxP/?mibextid=wwXIfr

7:04pm on 5/25/26 by Ali Ababwa

I'm not sure they can possibly have enough information to report about pandemonium. Potential pandemonium, perhaps. Touring Plans' IG Story shows that strollers can go on the train, so that point in the article is inaccurate.

7:09pm on 5/25/26 by utang44

Do you have a link? I couldn't find it on their IG page(??)
