Southwest fliers: These days it is much more dependent on start and end points, but FWIW I'm seeing flights tonight dropped to as low as 7K points for Long Island to MCO, some of them the good non-stops. Might be worth checking your flights!

@jjt For the SW card, it says you can't receive a new card member bonus within 24 months, if I'm reading it right. So do you keep it for 2 years, then cancel after your wife is approved, and she keeps hers for 2 years?

@ Naviheart, may I recommend 3rd or 4th row for your SW flight? The overhead compartment in 2nd row can get full quickly because that's where 1st row bags may go. The 1-3 row overheads are also smaller on some planes too.

@vicki Yes, for the personal SW cards the card clock starts when you last received a bonus, (not when you opened the card) so after 24 months you can reapply. If going to Companion Pass too, people usually open SW cards when they have an elevated bonus...

Please send us your teacher Amazon lists! I'll post on our IG stories that we're asking on chat so Liners (and pals of Liners) get supplies first. Please send lists to: christina@touringplans.com. You can cc Len so he will see I need a bigger budget.

@Juniper we snagged a couple of things. Thank you! As of right now, we've checked off a few things on each list in my email. Please publish your links here, too, if you haven't already so other Liners can have a look.

Would Boma bkfst and Tusker House dinner be ok on the same day? I wouldn't want Boma lunch and TH dinner the same day, or probably even the same trip. But I'm wondering if bkfst vs dinner is different enough.
19 min ago by
They're very different but that's a LOT of food for us! I'd do one buffet per day max. Satu'li Canteen at Pandora is a fun breakfast alternative at AK.
13 min ago by
But I would definitely combine TH breakfast with Sanaa or Jiko dinner, or even small dishes at Victoria Falls.

Starting g a new thread as I'm getting anxious to get the Rundisney login, get into the waitroom then into queue process ready for tomoro. Can have at least 4 devices running. It's how to enter the websote & get into the waitroom

Ha ha Hodg. I have been tempted to shout that in the past.
5:53pm by
Ali Ababwa, I missed your replies. Are you doing a race that weekend?
5:56pm by
I wish! I want to do some again but I can't be confident in my stupid back that far ahead, so I'll have to cheer you all on from home most likely.

You guys! Has anyone ever tried to apply for the plan disney panel? Is it super hard? Should I bother trying? And is it worth much beyond eternal bragging rights? :)
2:11pm by
Totsy, you should totally go for it! You've got such great experience with DVC and WDW! There are several rounds but you should definitely try! (I'm not much of a writer, so I didn't ever apply. I don't have any first hand experience)
6:01pm by
Omg @totsy you would be amazing. And DVC is definitely a very great niche for you. You know it all but your level of DVC knowledge is beyond.
6:04pm by
Awww. :) love to talk all things DVC. Can't wait for my lineup this summer- first stop vero beach! Then off to the poly tower, the new rooms at AKL and a week of les halles breakfast at the boardwalk.

Okay now that I'm running the challenge at Springtime Surprise I'm going to try for a 1 bedroom so I can sleep in the living room and my momma can sleep in the bedroom. I don't want to wake her up two days at 2 am. What 1 BRs would you AVOID?
1:41pm by
One with a pulldown so you can get some good rest and not risk waking up stiff or anything

Riviera?

Riviera, CC and BR 1BR Murphy beds are awesome. They are the good mattresses.

Are they keeping people out of bc, yc or bw? Friends want to get an uber but don't want to send them if they are going to turn them around. Tia.
1:42pm by
It's never been a given that you can get into those resorts in an Uber without a dining reservation. Happens sometimes. Sometimes the guard says no. You can get dropped off at Swan or Dolphin, though.
1:45pm by
It's a security measure and now for most resorts you won't get past the gate without a confirmed ADR with your digital record attached to it, or a resort reservation in your name, or a confirmed name on someone staying at the resort.
2:08pm by
Just send them to the swan. Easy peasy.
2:12pm by
Definitely go to Swan. I've been able to talk my way past those 3 gates multiple times for just DH to drop me off in the past but not anymore.

What's the current protocol for getting into trader Sam's now that there is a wait list in app? Trying to help a friend staying off property plan a monorail crawl. Will she need an ADR at poly to get on property? Been out of the Disney loop lately!
5:51pm by
Evamarie, I'm here at BLT now and I've seen Uber and Lyft cars turned away at the security gate for CR. It might just be due to the recent holiday, but today is Tuesday, so maybe security is more strict now?
5:59pm by
We've been turned away at the Poly and BLT. I think the advice to park at the TTC is the best plan.
6:01pm by
Ok sounds like ttc is the best bet. If trader Sam's opens at 11, do you think they'll need to get there prior to opening to join the list? Anyone know when the list opens?

So doing my first solo trip. I'm booking a preferred room at Pop. Would you get just the preferred or the preferred pool view? I'm just a little nervous about being by myself. Which one would you feel safer at?
7:27pm on 7/4/26 by
Ditto on POR being my least comfortable at night.
5:36pm by
I was just at Pop on a solo trip. I felt completely safe. Actually I feel completely safe at any Disney resort. I'd personally avoid the pool rooms because I prefer quieter rooms. I personally like ground floor rooms to get around faster.
55 min ago by
Nope. Sorry @Juniper, the snake in our room crossed ground floor of my list, lol!

Today our LL window opened up. Trying to finalize our plans and no matter what I do the optimizer ignores our LL return times and our dining and BBB reservation time. Feels kind of pointless. Can anyone help? Have tried with the "Force Use of..." both...
12:39pm by
I'll bump this up in case anyone has ideas. But we are other TP users like you. I think you might want to contact staff who can look at your plan from their end and see what the problem is. Go to home page of app, scroll down to Contact Us.
