I know this is just pie in the sky dreaming since I don't have my points yet and will get what I get lol but where would you stay for 2 nights with 3 adults where you're doing relaxing on days 1 and 3 and commando touring day 2 AK/EP/MK? Can be split stay
11:24am by
Riviera is a great place for relaxing upscale resort day as well as for transportation to two parks.

I wouldn't do a split stay either. I'd want to be around crescent lake area if possible.

4 parks; 1 day - AK, HS, MK, Epcot. Saturday Jan 30-Crowd level 6-7. Must do's are FoP, SDD, RoR, GoG. What order would you suggest I try to grab ILL and MPLL? Will get both; staying offsite so 3 days ahead for MPLL. We know it may not be feasible.
11:36am by
You can only buy two ILL so you'll have to choose between FOP, RoR, and GoG. I'd buy GoG, maybe start MPLL with AK for earliest possible LL and to unlock tiers and because it's cheapest.

Well, welcome Debbie Downer to the conversation. I already bought it, and several other Liners did, too. You don't have to, though!

Anyone know where & time of day HS groups would perform a concert? DS's HS music dept (band, strings, choir) is going for spring break. We are going too, of course! ADR day is coming up & only detail is the date. Guessing DS, but morning? afternoon?
5:12pm on 1/14/26 by
Times vary. You'd need to ask whoever is organizing at your school. DD stayed with her friends but then joined us on the last day and we continued the vacation with more planned activities like dining.
5:44pm on 1/14/26 by
Our school orchestra played at Disney Springs stage 4 years ago and the performances started around 10:30 and the last one was around 5:30 with 90 min or so between groups.
6:08am by
We are going to do similar with DS and collect him at the end for family vacay. ADR is just for DH, DD, & me. The hs kids are on their own :) will probably book for dinner as late as possible. Also thinking of doing Fantasmic dining package with it.

We are are looking to stay a few weeks in Aug. We've stayed with family in a timeshare at Bonnet Creek which was nice since it has a kitchen and can save us some money on meals. Which other places would you recommend?
7:08pm on 1/13/26 by
Thanks Snowdiz. Do you know if you stay there, if you have to go to a timeshare sales meeting? So many reviews on Google mention a meeting and said it's hours long.
8:30am by
Look into Marriott Cypress Harbour. All dedicated 2 bedroom and much smaller property than Sheraton. Sometimes the nightly rate on Bonvoy is excellent. Use the calendar with flex dates
8:35am by
We enjoyed Marriot Sabal palms last Aug. quick walk over to big pool at one world. Also did one day at the water park for a fee. Quick ride to WDW
11:35am by
NDR but adjacent. I may be doing one day at Universal with colleagues after a conference in March. Never been! Any tips or tricks for tickets? I know I want to add express pass but no idea if there are other things I should be smart about. Thank you!!
6:57am by
Are you going to Epic or Islands of Adventure or Studios or a combo?
7:50am by
The group wants combo to do all the Harry Potter stuff (Hope that's correct!)
11:02am by
Hi @jesster! The one-day ticket options include an IOA/US combo or an Epic ticket. Theres also a 1-day legacy parks PLUS 1-day Epic (2 days). But hopping between all three doesn't kick it till 3-day tix. There's HP in all but Epic's is Fant. Beasts.
11:31am by
Will be staying at AKL for the first time next trip. All tips appreciated Any must gets at Boma or Sanna (other than the bread of course)? TIA.
11:25pm on 1/14/26 by
Boma: The deviled eggs with bacon are amazing. Didn't know I liked deviled eggs until I had them. Zebra domes are a must as well.
10:46am by
We like the butter chicken @S in AKL. It's on the children's menu, and that size portion is perfect for us. We order the bread service first tho:)
10:55am by
Try things your servers recommend-they have an expertise I've never experienced elsewhere. Also try Cape Town Wine Bar- their rare pours are spectacular.
11:30am by
If you don't drink alcohol, is the quick service dining plan worth it? The kids eat free option appeals to us but I'm trying to determine if it's worth it. Looks like it would cost us 725 for our 6 nights. 2 kids 2adults. 120ish a day
11:55pm on 1/14/26 by
Average of $30 per person per day for 2 meals and a snack each (and mugs) is pretty good. Kids free dining in 2026 makes the plans a better deal even without alcohol. The mugs are $23, so if you're going to drink soda and eat even 1 QS/d, might as well.
10:08am by
Sorry, I was multitasking and misspoke, but I think it's a good deal if you plan to eat the two QS (rather than spending a lot on meals that aren't included).
10:18am by
For reference, DD22 and I only spent $422.94 in five days on food and alcohol in December. We split some QS & snacks, but other times had our own QS meals and ate at Steakhouse71 lounge. Even on trips w/ some TS meals we spend about $75 per day.
