WDW in 41 days! Been a minute since we've been. Tell me your LLMP strategy for each park. What 3 rides are you booking first? We have a mix of ages so we will hit all rides at some point. TIA!!

8:58pm on 4/21/26 by momtwofour

We do PPF, Buzz, and HM at MK; Remy or FEA, SE, and Soarin at EP; MMRR, TSM, and something else at HS; and Navi, KS, and EE at AK. If we have multiple days, we might repeat some of the preselects or switch them up.

9:26pm on 4/21/26 by utang44

Ok thank you!! That is pretty much what I was thinking.We sometimes RD PPF but I'm leaning towards not doing that this trip. I've been trying to watch some videos to get me up to speed.

Put our offer for resale at OKW. We already have 100 points there and this new 75 points are the same use year! Friday it was submitted to Disney for ROFR. Today (3 days) it passed ROFR! Hoping our points are loaded quickly also. We have our eye

Congrats! We just got points loaded for our resale add on at Boulder Ridge. I could not believe how much faster everything went compared to our 2024 purchase. Awesome!

5:13am by Lindsey740

Congratulations!

@Lindsey after closing and it went to Disney for loading points, how many days did it take?

What are people's preferences between the caring for Giants tour and the Up Close with Rinos tour?

10:06pm on 4/21/26 by CronutQueen

Both are great, but I would choose rhinos!

12:05am by daisylover78

We did the caring for giants in february and saw only one elephant from a great distance. It was a let down for sure, wouldn't do it again. Wanted rhinos but it wasn't available.

12:10am by CitrusSwirlGirl

Both are great tours. My family would probably say the Rhino tour is better. You do get to touch a rhino. It is very difficult to snag a spot; one tour a day for 12 people max.

4:06am by TeacherGrandma

Does anyone know what time the free dining offers are likely to go live on the website? Am on uk time

12:50pm on 4/20/26 by ajsupereagle

It's a U.K. only offer isn't it? So wouldn't expect it to be a mad panic. I was planning on comparing this v dvc for next April & booking in May at the 11m out pint to choose which is best

1:30pm on 4/20/26 by hodg

Thanks. We are looking to summer 27 as we have 4 free nights at a moderate due to housekeeping issues last time we were there

3:50pm on 4/20/26 by ajsupereagle

I signed up for the attraction tickets notifications of the offer as they claim to give 10% off too- doubt it will be as good as they say there. In general the saving booking dvc has beaten FD offer for us- thinking BC or BW next year for springtime run

3:55pm on 4/20/26 by hodg

I have the email thru & there is the extra discount up to 27th. Website v slow at 6am tho. Will check travel republic prices too as they've been good for UOR,

12:56am on 4/21/26 by hodg

Thanks I'm on now but no availability at all for CBR on the offer in July holidays! All other resorts do!

1:34am on 4/21/26 by ajsupereagle

Only 3465 folk in front of me. Normally a lot more than that. Might be too early for some. Just looking:)

2:14am on 4/21/26 by tiggertypooh

That's a pain. For BLT or BC it'll be 2k pounds less to do dvc. Can't eat that amount of food. Will prove out mod too but wld also want CBR then

2:15am on 4/21/26 by hodg

Price

2:15am on 4/21/26 by hodg

I may look at DVC as well tbh. Difficulty for us is 4 ad/2 ch so have to get 2 rooms at DVC as grand villas with 3 beds are huge money!

2:40am on 4/21/26 by ajsupereagle

Minnie van on the queue page takes nearly as long as the real MCO-WDW trip! Those wheels keep turning!

2:59am on 4/21/26 by ajsupereagle

At nearly six grand for two weeks at POFQ in May think I'll pass. Also shows QSDP as excludes gratuities! Too right it does!

3:08am on 4/21/26 by tiggertypooh

I'm still waiting for TUI to activate the free DDP offer, are they always last?

3:31am on 4/21/26 by Netsav

Managed to get 5 nights CBR with the free dining took lots of fiddling around though to find dates with free dining. Agree about gratuities on QS!

3:42am on 4/21/26 by ajsupereagle

Is my confirmation number different from the booking reference number? App or website won't accept the red number when I try to add to MDE?!

5:44am on 4/21/26 by ajsupereagle

Who is paying gratuities on quick service meals anyhow? There's no server involved.

8:39am on 4/21/26 by utang44

Did you get thru Disney @ajsuper? I've had to chase for correct number when booked thru virgin in the past Glad you got CBR

8:53am on 4/21/26 by hodg

Yep I went direct. Seems the number I have just won't work. Have had the confirmation email but won't work on web or app

10:07am on 4/21/26 by ajsupereagle

I don't know the logistics of UK packages, but when you buy through Disney in the United States, it's automatically linked to MDE. It isn't like that in the UK?

10:24am on 4/21/26 by utang44

@utang, it's a bit more complicated for UK / Ireland bookings. You get a reference number that is your reference number for Disney International. Theoretically in a few days it appears on MDE with a WDW confirmation number. But you might need to call.

10:45am on 4/21/26 by nitsaki

I modified my preexisting reservation (actually had CM cancel and rebook) for Pop for January 2027. Better price and free QS meal. We stay 18 days so we stay at Pop always.

11:09am on 4/21/26 by nitsaki

Well, that sounds annoyingly complex!

11:29am on 4/21/26 by utang44

@aj when Disney are busy it can take about a week for the reference to work on MDE. As long as you have the reference number email you're good to go.

2:32am by tiggertypooh

Question for Disney Cruise Line people. I never received my luggage tags my mother and brother did. My travel agent TA reached out to Disney and they said they were mailed to the home of record which is my home but I never received anything. The TA stated

6:09pm on 4/21/26 by WorldTraveler34

I can confirm you can also get them at the port if needed.

10:27pm on 4/21/26 by njhyndman

We're overseas so they're not mailed out. TA says just to collect as we drop our bags

12:50am by hodg

It's a bit hit or miss for us as sometimes we receive them and others we don't.

2:25am by tiggertypooh

I have MMB. Can I buy 12 points and get my 12 points free for a stay I book NOW but for next calendar year AND in next use year?

9:02pm on 4/21/26 by popupcamper

...view 2 more comments

You should be able to as long as the room is bookable now. And its only one free set of 12 per calendar year, per membership. They closed the loophole.

10:51pm on 4/21/26 by Totsypooh

Thank you, oh I just remembered it's got to be within 7 months, not 11 right? So my plan doesn't actually work. D'oh!

10:59pm on 4/21/26 by popupcamper

Yes, must be within the 7 month window.

12:32am by Beautiesandtheb

After 30 trips to WDW, we will be going to Disneyland for the first time. What are some unique or don't miss things to see and do there?

2:39pm on 4/19/26 by anneofcreek

collapse thread

We went in February for the first time and thought Space Mountain was way better! Also really enjoyed lunch at Lamplight Lounge

3:55pm on 4/19/26 by RigbyC

Haven't been to DLR in years, but a special memory was having a mint julep with my DH in New Orleans square

3:56pm on 4/19/26 by disneymama3

DL is special. You can tell it's older. Pirates is so cool. Not sure when you are going, but they have great tours. They just do them so well out there. My favorite I've done was a Christmas tour. I like walking through downtown disney to parks.

4:11pm on 4/19/26 by momma4fun

I'm glad to hear the tours are special. We leave in three weeks for our Adventures by Disney vacation to Southern California and Disneyland. There are several tours on the schedule, including Walt's apartment and meeting with an Imagineer. Free time too.

4:35pm on 4/19/26 by anneofcreek

I hope you have an amazing trip! Ride all the rides! Pirates is awesome and there are many Fantasyland rides that are not at WDW. Are you planning to go to California Adventure? Radiator Springs Racers is one of my all time favorites!

4:48pm on 4/19/26 by T07

Please report back on your trip!

5:17pm on 4/19/26 by momma4fun

Paint the night- so good And we've not seen WoC as it was broken when we went- hoping to see that this year. F! also very unique there- hadn't planned to go but loved it

6:39pm on 4/19/26 by hodg

And the guardians take on ToT is such fun

6:39pm on 4/19/26 by hodg

I really like the WOC dessert party but its $$$$

6:56pm on 4/19/26 by Totsypooh

The nighttime shows are great. We did each one once. WoC was my favorite. I don't know if they still do something special at It's a Small World at night, but we enjoyed that too because it was less crowded. So many fun rides & things to do - enjoy!

10:15pm on 4/19/26 by Ange425

Hi @totsy! I actually just booked that for our trip today, so glad to hear your recommendation!

10:49pm on 4/19/26 by JERancher

Hi @anne- I'm in a similar boat (taking my whole family soon), but I've been once before. I had fun prioritizing the rides that DL has that aren't at WDW, and the rides that DL does differently (bec DL's are often better). For me, that list is:

10:52pm on 4/19/26 by JERancher

DL: Indy, Big Thunder, HM (esp if holiday version), IASW, Matterhorn, Space Mt, all the dark rides in FL (minus PPF unless there's time), Storyland Canal Boats, Roger Rabbit, Finding Nemo, and Pirates. DCA: Incredicoaster, Soarin (if over CA), all of...

10:56pm on 4/19/26 by JERancher

...Carsland, Grizzly River Run, Pixar Pal-Around, Webslingers and the shows in Avenger's Campus. When I was planning this trip, I asked a similar question over on the DL side of Lines, and they highly recommended Paint the Night, Wondrous Journeys, Wo...

10:58pm on 4/19/26 by JERancher

....World of Color (which I've seen a diff version of, and it's awesome!), the 70th cavalcade, and Tapestry of Happiness on IaSW. A few also recommended the 70th tour. Hope this helps!

11:00pm on 4/19/26 by JERancher

Oh, one more thought. I love Disney history, so I had fun looking for the little unique things at DL: the mismatched light bulb, the little man of DL, Wendy and Peter's initials in the tree, the brick wall, Jingles the horse... These things light me up!

11:06pm on 4/19/26 by JERancher

Just 7 days until my Disneyland trip. Join the Disneyland chat. They aren't as quick to respond as here. I got a lot of great advice. Since there's no real benefit to staying onsite I'm not. Going for the 70th and for Star Wars night :) so excited

11:29pm on 4/19/26 by WorldTraveler34

If you go to Pixar place hotel you can rent a car and return it lax for no extra charge. All but candy cane charge for parking. Eva and wallie meet in the lobby on Wednesdays in April for earth day

11:31pm on 4/19/26 by WorldTraveler34

^Agree with @world re: offsite hotels. I tend to stay at the Park Vue Inn, which is zero frills. But it's clean, across the street (closer to DCA than even the DL Hotel), and they don't charge for th parking either.

7:30am on 4/20/26 by JERancher

DL is a lot of fun. Much more manageable. Parks are right next to each other. Downtown area is fun - we did dinner there on our arrival day. The rides that are also at WDW are often better at DL but IMO DL doesn't have the likes of SDD, GotG, FoP, Tron.

2:09pm on 4/20/26 by ma14

I don't love the LL system without letting you book beforehand. But they have very regular LL drops which helped us a ton.

2:10pm on 4/20/26 by ma14

Agree with all of the above. We stay at grand legacy. Quick and safe walk.

2:29pm on 4/20/26 by matterhorn55

I'm doing best western I'll report back on the 3rd when it's over

11:31am on 4/21/26 by WorldTraveler34

Please report, @WT34! I'm considering taking a week out there next winter instead of the Pop stay that I have on the books.

3:11pm on 4/21/26 by Ali Ababwa

Indiana Jones, Carsland, and Mr Toad!

5:15pm on 4/21/26 by moondance07

SFL. We're hoping to go next year. My mum said forget DL and stick with WDW, but we want to visit DL!

6:01pm on 4/21/26 by ejhnstn

We always have to eat at the Blue Bayou since it's inside POTC

6:58pm on 4/21/26 by AgentCarter

Indy, pirates, and Mr. Toads for sure!

7:25pm on 4/21/26 by cobia

Pirates has always been my favorite. I grew up at DL

7:34pm on 4/21/26 by cobia

I'm going this summer- first time. Great lists!

Mr Toad! Do the castle walk through with the story of Sleeping Beauty. Also look closely & up for the window that the Evil Queen is watching from.

9:31pm on 4/21/26 by el_1102

I loved the canal boats and the canoes! The Spider-Man show. Walking through Grizzly Peak. Guardians and Radiator Springs Racers rides. Incredicoaster.

9:36pm on 4/21/26 by TumbleMonkeys

The Disney Gallery is fun to check out. It's just after the right side entrance at DL park. Also agree with WOC dessert party, ask for a high top table for a good view. Sorcerer's workshop in the animation building and Redwood creek challenge trail at DCA

Makes no sense July 3 and 4 is CL 5 Epcot ...

I recently watched an Ear Scouts video from last year where he went MK on July 5 and said it was empty. I think he said he assumed everyone had gone to MK on the 4th. He'd gone to Epcot on the 4th and I'm pretty sure he said it was a light crowd.

1:09pm on 4/21/26 by catherine.p.ahern

We have gone to WDW the past 3 years over the 4th and it's VERY low crowds, especially during the day. Epcot and MK get busy on the 3rd and 4th, but the parks aren't busy during the day. Might be different this year due to the holiday being on a weekend.

Most Passholders are blocked out as well.

Watching American Idol with my Mom, anyone notice the PINK castle in the background?!! Grrr

American idol is still on? I had no idea! I used to love that show.

I thought they filmed it at Disneyland?
