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

If I open generic Rundisney I see all the springtime events not yet open, but nowhere to log in. If I search Rundisney login I can do that but then there's no events listed "no suggested events" Do not want to get this wrong!

12:50pm on 7/6/26 by hodg

Does it just magically open under suggested events some time tomoro? I remeber the process of waitroom, queue, enter fast and pay, it's starting the process off

1:21pm on 7/6/26 by hodg

Shoot, @popup had a good link to directions, but it was on my old phone that exploded. Hoping she will see this.

4:16pm on 7/6/26 by Jennyhirsch

Your phone exploded, @jenny?

4:29pm on 7/6/26 by utang44

The battery swelled up like Violet in Charlie and Chocolate Factory. Got so fat it pushed off the Otterbox phone case and cracked the back. Obvs it went dark on me and all my good info was lost!

7:08pm on 7/6/26 by Jennyhirsch

Hi Hodg. I have been wondering the same thing today. I am trying for the Challenge. What about you? Have DD and DS recruited to help me for the first time ever. I don't go crazy and open up a bunch of browsers so fingers crossed. Good luck to you!

We're after 5k for dh & me- that'll be a walk but is a goal for him post hip op, which is in 2 wks all being well. Then I'm aiming for 10k. Would only do 10 mile instead as a last resort if I can't get 10k!

12:53am by hodg

Hodg, IIRCthe waiting room will open sometime in the hour before registration starts. Not positive about that however. Hope DH's hip surgery goes well. Is that a tough recovery?

2:06am by h2olly

@Hodg Here's an instagram link that walks you thru the entire process of registering with screenshots https://www.instagram.com/reel/DaP61Tuuk0z/?igsh=MXZrYWlxcjl1ZWJxcA==

3:46am by georgejr1966

To login to my rundisney account I click on Help & Support and then click on manage account, this takes you to login screens. I've never found just a log in button. You can start the registration without being logged in and just log in during the process

3:53am by georgejr1966

Thanks so much Georgejr!

4:08am by h2olly

Thanks @georgejr! I did watch thru a YouTube last night. It's just that there's nothing live to click on but presume that'll open up at the appropriate time! Think hip recovery is much easier than knee replacement- & can't be worse than he is now @h2olly!

I think you can enter a waiting room up to an hour prior to start time. If you're in waiting room then at 10:00 our time you automatically get in the queue. I have heard some have better results clicking on the link at exactly the start time though. Prett

Pretty sure that the little rectangle changes to something else saying it is time to register at the appropriate time.

29 min ago by h2olly

Hodg, that's good to know. I was afraid hip replacement would be way worse than knee. My DH's knee replacement was pretty rough so glad hips are easier.

Mommy and Mickeys was down this AM so now we are getting slammed by LL arrivals at 131pm July 6.

I was so confused about who mommy was :)

4:08pm on 7/6/26 by VikeQueen

@Ali - hilarious - seriously made me laugh out loud with your response :-)

11:23pm on 7/6/26 by tl5

I am so confused? Lol. People call Minnie "Mommy"???

2:07am by h2olly

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 mickeyforlife

I feel comfortable in most Disney properties or hotels.

7:30pm on 7/4/26 by JackOfAll

I wouldn't get pool view even solo. I feel safe 100% of the time at Disney which is a giant part of why it's my goto vacation.

7:42pm on 7/4/26 by popupcamper

I wouldn't get pool view. It's overly loud. Put in a request via MDE chat for a top floor room for added security.

7:50pm on 7/4/26 by utang44

I've felt comfortable walking alone at night at Disney hotels. I wouldn't want preferred pool room at Pop. Preferred would be just fine. I'd request 1960s.

8:03pm on 7/4/26 by JenniferB1975

At POR assigned Bayou. That landscaping is creepy in dark. Went back to front desk after viewing room location without entering room and explained my concerns. CM agreed, says she's been out at night alone and reassigned my room to Royal garden view.

8:27pm on 7/4/26 by Magicalday2011

If you're not happy with location. Just say so. They will try to help at POP

8:28pm on 7/4/26 by Magicalday2011

POR was the only Disney resort where I felt a little unsure at night. Was in the back of Alligator Bayou and the walk from the bus stop to my room was so dark.

8:40pm on 7/4/26 by Sorcerers_Apprentice

I've stayed in Pop solo many times. I don't usually get preferred and request building 3. Close to main building and skyliner.

8:42pm on 7/4/26 by Sorcerers_Apprentice

My actual only solo stay was at POR and it was fine but I live in Houston proper so maybe I'm used to feeling like I could be knifed at any moment.

8:51pm on 7/4/26 by popupcamper

I was just at POR a week ago and came back to my room after midnight after my bus from MK broke down and didn't think anything of it - I just make sure no one is nearby when I open my door.

At Pop I've never felt unsafe near the central buildings, because you're almost always in a direct line of sight with 4 stories of rooms.

10:32pm on 7/4/26 by Ali Ababwa

lol popupcamper that cracked me up.

6:43pm on 7/6/26 by mickeyforlife

You will be just fine at Pop - all the buildings and walkways are brightly lit and you are walking out in open areas until you get to your building (things I think about solo). I've felt very safe at Pop and All Stars.

1:55am by daisylover78

I saw on one of the YouTube channels that we can see or ask for which room is the best to be in and hopefully get that room at the time that we go in So my question is I have a DVC one bedroom tower villa theme Park view

12:58am by Ynavares808@gmail.com

Anyone recently see the Lightning McQueen popcorn bucket? Leaving in a few days and am wondering if it's sold out already. Thanks!

7:26am on 7/6/26 by Pumpkinprincess11

I asked at HS three days ago and the CM said sold out throughout the park.

1:22pm on 7/6/26 by ferbtones

Bummer, but thank you @ferbtones!

12:45am by Pumpkinprincess11

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!

10:26pm on 7/6/26 by JJT (staff)

Looks like the lower points prices are reaching in to the 3rd week in December at this point.

10:28pm on 7/6/26 by JJT (staff)

TY! Saved over $110 on 4 flights in Nov & Dec :)

11:46pm on 7/6/26 by LisaPooh

Thanks I saved 10k points on our Dec flight to Disney!

12:01am by kmusilli

I have 3 trips planned. Nov 9-18, Dec 1-10, and Jan 5-14. I have flights, rooms and an AP. I think I only want to do one trip, but am unsure which to pick. Which would you do and why?

10:06pm on 7/5/26 by JackOfAll

collapse thread

I think I'd pick Nov for the best (hopefully and in my opinion!) weather. But not all of Christmas decor will be up yet, if that matters to you.

10:27pm on 7/5/26 by TumbleMonkeys

1-10 of December for me. Holidays around the world is my fav!!!

10:46pm on 7/5/26 by Crazycatlady3

Dec 1-10 lower crowds, Xmas will all be up in resorts and all parks, candlelight processional.

10:48pm on 7/5/26 by cdlla

My vote is early Dec as well. Holidays in full swing but not crazy yet.

10:59pm on 7/5/26 by njhyndman

I'd pick Dec as I love the Festival of the Holidays

10:59pm on 7/5/26 by HalfBludPrincess

I've done Nov around then twice. Had a hurricane for one of them. Still fun. But FotH & MVMCP are on my list to do - I love the Xmas decorations. I think I'd vote for Dec, even if you're not doing parties.

11:39pm on 7/5/26 by DestinyCalled

Early Jan for lower crowds.

7:28am on 7/6/26 by evamarie320

December for holiday decorations and celebrations.

8:05am on 7/6/26 by JenniferB1975

I'd pick the December dates. The joy in the parks around the holidays is fantastic! Crowds really pick up after the 25th.

8:54am on 7/6/26 by PackTheCar

December for all the Christmas decorations and events. But I'd actually go on all 3. :D

8:56am on 7/6/26 by GoldenDreams

December. Week after Thanksgiving historically a great time to go!

9:40am on 7/6/26 by Eemoore79

Early Jan is a nice time, some holiday still up, weather has been cooler the past few years. I would be there at that time but instead will be in DL.

7:23pm on 7/6/26 by Justone

Dec 1-9 if you have not been there around Christmastime for a while. Otherwise for sure Jan 5. Last time I was there the second week of January the parks were as empty as they ever get nowadays.

Just throwing it out there, marathon is January 6-10. Another reason I stand by my Dec vote, lol.

9:28pm on 7/6/26 by cdlla

I vote for December

9:33pm on 7/6/26 by simba77

December!

"What's cookin'?" Making an easy dinner tonight; air fryer chicken, topping mine with some honey siracha, stovetop stuffing and buttered corn. Apple banana nut muffins for dessert. It's Monday menu time!

Thoughts on memory maker? Worth it or skip it? We are going for 12 days with my husband and myself, 3 kiddos (7, 5, 2) plus Gpa & Gma and my brother. Thanks!

We always get it. So many precious memories captured with loved ones. Practically, my kids tend to cooperate better with a photographer too :)

8:44pm on 7/6/26 by WDWchipndale

Yes. Especially with that group dynamic. For many trips I was never in any pics because I was always the one taking the pictures.

9:01pm on 7/6/26 by cdlla

Absolutely get it. We have gotten so many great photos from our trips with Memory Maker.

10:27pm on 7/6/26 by Ange425

Good afternoon Liners. Good luck to everyone registering for Springtime Surprise tomorrow! Seems like it is even harder now since DL not offering races anymore. I am going to try for the Challeng; even though my 60 year old knee still hasn't

I am so sorry about your back. I take tizanidine prn. Really helps me. And hurray for steroids! Ha. Wish I had some myself right about now....although steroid knee injection from DH didn't help so.....Have a great cruise!

8:10pm on 7/6/26 by h2olly

Thanks for the heads up on registration being tmrw. I have to call to have my friends and family fixed in my MDE hotel res but I think I'll wait until Wednesday :)
