I'm a bit confused. I reserved the pre-fireworks dessert party for July 3rd. The time is for 7:30 pm. But the fireworks don't start until 10:00 right? So what do you do for 2.5 hours? That's a lot of time to eat treats that we don't really care about lol

If I try to book the same dessert party on July 2nd it shows 8:30 as the time. But for July 3rd and 4th it shows 7:30.

Maybe the 4th of July fireworks start at 9:00 because they are different than Happily Ever After?

So annoyed: Bought a Figment MB+ last year through a resort stay. It worked for our June trip, but wouldn't pair in November. Two POFQ CMs "tried" to help, and one pressed the button so hard it no longer functions. (Continued)

According to Scott Gustin, Disney said that they're only discontinuing retail sales of MB+ at DL, that it will continue being used there for those who want it. And that the change doesn't affect WDW at all. They'll continue to sell, optimize, and use.

That's really frustrating. Especially with the figment one. I'd bring it next time and ask nicely if they can replace it.

Just such a pain that they worsened my problem and won't make up for it! I wore this band one day on my recent trip, though, and just carried the other in my bag for photo capture and parade interactions. Guess I'll continue to do that.

Want to take advantage of the deluxe property/DCL bounceback promo. But it ends on the 31st and im not staying deluxe until June. If I book a 1 night stay at deluxe and dont show up do you think I'll still get the bounceback offer?

I would be curious to hear what other liners say about this. But for reference, I just used that discount to book my first Disney cruise (very excited!), and all I needed to provide was my name and reservation confirmation number. So... maybe?

11:23pm on 4/29/26 by JERancher

Good to know. I just wonder if Disney knows if I never actually enter my hotel room? Like I wonder if they just cancel my reservation if I don't show up. I'm not sure!

11:30pm on 4/29/26 by Kvk4

You woukd need to go online check in and hope there is no issue where they tell you that you need to go to front desk (rare)

5:11am by PrincipalTinker

So you don't think they have a way of being able to tell if I didn't open the door and call me or cancel the reservation?

8:33am by Kvk4

Honestly, why would they care? You're still paying for the hotel room, so they get the money either way.

8:39am by utang44

Your odds are good with a prepaid one night reservation, but the one time I did one it stressed me out, too. Just curious - is your expected DCL savings a lot more than the cost of one night at a Deluxe hotel?

8:40am by TumbleMonkeys

Yes I have a family of 6, so need two staterooms. If I calculated correctly, I could save $1200. So it seems worth it to spend $350-400 on a 1 night deluxe stay

8:49am by Kvk4

Can someone tell me about this promo?

8:51am by vickiwaffles

That's great!

Oh man I hadn't heard that this offer was ending:(

9:07am by aliceinwonderla

When is this offer ending? If I stayed a night at SSR booking it with cash through Disney, that would count as a Deluxe or DVC resort right?

11:17am by vickiwaffles

It ends may 31st. Yes that would qualify

Ok thanks everyone for the info. Off to crunch some numbers.

1:45pm by vickiwaffles

WDW can definitely tell if you opened your door or not. But question is whether they will care as long as you pay your bill.

52 min ago by evamarie320

There is no reason for them to run the security check on the door. They care if you don't show and don't pay ahead. You could have met a new "friend" in the park and stayed in their room watching TV.

Remind me- Disney rash- what's the best thing to use? DFIL has a bit. We have neosporin- that's my cure all usually?

10:22am by hodg

Stop at a first aid station in a park. They have a gel that helps relieve the symptoms.

10:40am by Bubbakirby

We're at universal- presune same here? We need to pop to cvs or similar later as I need to buy toothpaste too.

10:42am by hodg

I think it might be Calagel. Good luck!

11:02am by TumbleMonkeys

I would use hydrocortisone if it's itchy.

11:03am by melcort10

Yeah, pretty sure it's calagel.

11:25am by utang44

Nothing is needed. https://www.buildabettermousetrip.com/disney-rash/ It will go away on it's own.

11:48am by Elaine5715

Wearing compression socks helps prevent or get worse- my DD and I get it and it's the pits. Soaking legs in pool also helps it feel better

11:56am by 321itsme

Yes soaking in pool helps

12:24pm by burfe1501

He says it's not bothering him but I don't want it to get worse. Calagel rings a bell but I don't know what's in that? Not a U.K. product.

12:28pm by hodg

Will be at the pool later anyway

12:28pm by hodg

If you'll be at a pharmacy later, ask the pharmacist for a recommendation. They'll tell you what to get!

12:38pm by utang44

I've always used Caladryl. It's similar to calamine and has zinc. Here's a link https://a.co/d/0aNsflI9

1:10pm by youcanfly

Nothing will keep it from getting worse other than not walking so much in the heat. Mine never itches, just gets warm to the touch. Cold washcloth when you can.

1:15pm by sragne

Compression socks have helped me not get it the last few trips.

2:25pm by matterhorn55

If it really isn't bothering him, leave it alone. As someone who also gets Disney rash, I know it looks awful to someone who has never got it, but it really isn't painful or itchy. Just looks like it should be that way.

@TwoBits, I expect one of this times when the rash completely circles my legs, I will be giving birth to an alien baby... if you get that reference, you also had Year 2000 anxiety.

3:10pm by Elaine5715

Calagel helps almost immediately. It's what WDW first aid gives for the rash. I've found it at CVS & Amazon. Amazon has both bottles of Calagel and individual packets that easily fit in daily backpack.

3:37pm by TeacherGrandma

I was just researching this to prepare for my trip and if you'll still be in the parks tomorrow compression socks can help keep it at bay.

Favorite way to get to WDW from Orlando airport for a family of 7 with luggage and we want to all go in one vehicle.

Less than a hour for me on Mears to POP on Sunday. Bus left after I got on, POP was second stop.

Thoughts on LL strategy for MK now that BTMR is a tier 1?

1:59pm by agraber121

That'll likely depend on whether BTMR has daily drops like Tiana's does. We won't know that until it's been operating for a bit, probably.

2:10pm by utang44

I would definitely prebook it.

3:05pm by melcort10

Im going on 5/10-5/16 and plan on booking BTMRR as my tier 1 because we don't know yet if it will have drops and we know we have drops for Tiana. Space is so easy to get, and JC and PPF we can grab during the day between our 2 MK days.

3:09pm by maurine08

If you were going to book Topolinos for dinner and to see the fireworks in July what time would you get a reservation for? Also it's our first ever summer time visit. What times do most of you head back to the hotel for a heat break and then return?

12:16pm by RigbyC

Fireworks right now are scheduled for 10pm. I would make an 8:30 ADR

12:23pm by PrincipalTinker

Epcot FW are at 9pm so I would try for 745-8pm. They are fine with people heading outside to watch them and coming back in to finish eating :)

12:57pm by cdlla

When we travel in summer our motto is "done by one" meaning we are actively moving toward the park exit by 1pm. We'll go back out between 5 and 6pm.

2:49pm by KLuck

We take a break around 2 or 3:00, head back out at 5 or 6:00. If you're having a great time and don't want the break, a long TS meal can work instead.

3:05pm by maurine08

Any must eats at DCA?

1:23pm by lorilcleveland

Anything at Lamplight Lounge. Cheese on a stick at the corn dog place. Jack jack cookie near Incredicoaster. I heard the cones in Carsland were good but I never got to try.

1:42pm by TumbleMonkeys

Pym's Test Kitchen. Flo's just revamped their menu. Schmoozie's can have some fun milkshakes and seasonal mickey waffles.

1:59pm by WildernessPixie

Have package tickets I'm going to convert to AP's on trip. Can we do that before our first park day or do we need to wait until we've gone into a park first?

1:22pm by 321itsme

You can do either, but you'll need to make park reservations once you convert to the AP.

1:43pm by utang44

Stroller rental company recommendations? We will need both a double wide and a single stroller for our December Holiday extravaganza. Who all do you use?

Kingdom Stroller is an amazing company. They tried to step up for the family that lost their son at GF. They earned my loyalty.

12:21pm by PrincipalTinker

Thanks everyone!

12:56pm by TacMed

Kingdom Strollers was awesome for us last week. They were so flexible with some changes I made and all the staff were really nice.
