The summer deals have me realllly considering a late August trip. We can stack the hotel/ticket deal with the kids eat free deal. I saw it needs to be booked by Feb 15. Does anyone know if that's just the deposit or do you have to pay in full?
9:00pm on 1/9/26 by
The dates we are considering work out to 3700 usd for 6 days at Pop including quick service meal plan and that feels decent to me. Two adults and two kids (4/7) Or am I crazy?
9:01pm on 1/9/26 by
Just needs to be booked by then. Payment is due as normal.
9:01pm on 1/9/26 by
You're asking us on here to tell you you're crazy for booking a bargain wdw trip??? We will never tell you not to book!

First visit to DLP! Buuut its also the week the frozen land opens there, so I'm a bit concerned about crowds. Any TP-like resources to read/watch? (Will gladly take other recs too - thinking Sequoia for hotel but all have availability as of now)
9:07pm on 1/9/26 by
I love SeeYouInMainStreet on YouTube. They are a sweet couple. If Sequoia has not been renovated yet I would stay elsewhere.
9:19pm on 1/9/26 by
Agree avoid sequoia if not renovated- we were there in 2019- one outlet for the whole room, v tired. Marvel NYC is fabulous if budget allows. Otherwise do Newport bay or Santa Fe.
1:34am by
Santa Fe/ Cheyenne have more of aQS food option o think, otherwise you have to have meals booked at the hotels or use citiwalk.
1:36am by
Don't know how much more crowded the opening wil make it- but the only ride in frozen is FEA clone so seeing it prob matters more than doing the ride. You still get hour EE there which is good. Need to RD Cruah. We didn't use LL in Oct at all

While we have a hearing aid thread around- my dmil is very deaf. Do any of the shows in the parks, or on DCL(Wish) have loop system set up?
1:28am by
This coming week will be my first WDW trip wearing hearing aids. Obviously, I'll remove them for RnRC, and for the water rides. Probably for Guardians as well. What other rides should I remove them on that I may not be thinking of? (Not riding Space Mt)
6:06pm on 1/9/26 by
I don't think you need to worry about any rides. I've never had an issue with mine, but I don't do RNRC. They do affect how well 3D glasses fit a bit.
8:12pm on 1/9/26 by
My concern is that sudden motions might dislodge them. I've had them about three months so far and I haven't done anything similar to a coaster. (For the record, mine are the type that sit on top of the ear with a wire that goes into the ear canal)
12:00am by
My dmil has worn hearing aids for years- she doesn't ride space or RnRC. I do have a photo of her on EE with a hand at one ear as she said she was worried it might dislodge but that's an old photo- prob 2015 trip.

Staying at Poly. To get to Epcot, do I need to go to TTC?
11:54pm on 1/9/26 by
Yes, if you want to arrive via monorail. At TTC, the three monorail routes all meetup (MK express, MK resorts, and Epcot). Must switch from resorts monorail to Epcot monorail. You can walk from Poly to TTC, or ride resort monorail long way around to TTC.

They just changed AK hours to closing at 8:00 on our HS day. Is it worth missing Fantasmic for the 2nd trip in a row to hop to AK to see Pandora at night? We've never seen it and I am very tempted to hop. Has anyone been to an evening there? Lines bad?
3:41pm on 1/9/26 by
Al after dark is amazing and Dinosaur is closing end of the month
6:52pm on 1/9/26 by
What date has the 8 pm close please?
11:28pm on 1/9/26 by
I received a TP update for AK closing at 8pm on January 31st

A few weeks ago my DH and I celebrated life in WDW not knowing what was ahead. Tomorrow morning he will hv a quadruple open heart surgery. Totally unexpected. Please pray that all will be well. We definitely need Pixie Dust...
7:33pm on 1/1/26 by
That's great news about the tubes, going home and home care being set up! I hope he keeps healing and you are staying to feel some relief as the care provider.
12:14pm on 1/8/26 by
Hope you had a successful transition home. Just wanted you to know we were thinking of you. It's scary at first but also so nice without all of the hospital interruptions, monitors, etc.
11:40pm on 1/9/26 by
Sending some dust your way.
11:52pm on 1/9/26 by
I don't typically buy lightning lane. Staying offsite end of August. What are the odds of getting decent attractions for 2 17 year olds at 3 days out? Thanks!!
1:15pm on 1/9/26 by
You won't have first pick but you can still get a lot. Supplement with day-of and drops. Single pass availability is tough at 3 days, though.
1:50pm on 1/9/26 by
Rope drop for headliners. Pay attention to Halloween party schedule at MK. The same morning as a party night feels almost empty at MK! I'd totally sacrifice being at MK late that night for HEA to enjoy the low crowds at 8am.
3:25pm on 1/9/26 by
I'd buy MPLL for HS, even if not for super top rides. Single rider for Rise and SmugRun on busy Jan 1 afternoon were 20 min max waits. Not everyone knows or wants single rider but when you want to repeat or avoid an hour standby, 17 yr olds will do it!
3:27pm on 1/9/26 by
Will prob do a party one night. Kids are requesting sleep ins and parks after sun goes down. I did do mk on a Xmas party day. Amazing! Nothing over 30 minutes that I saw even headliners. Dh waited 22 minutes for tron
11:50pm on 1/9/26 by
Flights booked for me and DSis for our quick trip for my birthday. Land noon-ish on 3/3 and plan is pool, nap, bar crawl, then 1-day PH on my birthday RD AK, midday Epcot for day 1 of F&G, end at MK for HEA/Starlight stacked LLs and extra pm hours.
10:25pm on 1/9/26 by
Then sleep in and do brunch somewhere before DSis heads to the airport and I veg by the pool for a couple extra hours (maybe a lounge chair nap) before heading home myself.
10:26pm on 1/9/26 by
Now I just need the final steps of my DVC purchase to finish up so I can book a hotel (or 2 lol).
11:04pm on 1/9/26 by
That sounds absolutely amazing - have a wonderful time!!
11:22pm on 1/9/26 by
Awesome!!!
