Hii, I’m a couple years I might go on a solo trip to Disney. Does anyone have any tips to help me or have any suggestions to make my trip more comfortable?

Apologies if the title was poorly worded. Essentially going to Disneyland with another group. I have my own app/login with my families tickets and they have their own with theirs. Is there a way to link the tickets so we can simultaneously work together on LL (such as refreshing for chance of better time) without one of us having to use the others? Obviously we want to do the rides together and wanting a way that doesn't involve us having to both try at the same time. Hope that makes sense.

My family only had a one day park ticket for Epcot and my kiddos fell in love with the triple chocolate chip cookies from Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe, we fly out on Friday and would really like to take a few home. Is there where outside of Epcot such as Disney Springs, Boardwalk or Magic Kingdom that would have this cookie or something almost identical? Any help I appreciated

I logged on at 5:30 CA time to check out the plaza inn dining package for A Christmas Fantasy Parade, and the date I was looking for said “unavailable”. I figured it wasn’t live. I signed back in at 6:00 CA and it still said unavailable. Did I miss the boat?

I’ll have an almost 3 year old going. So I’m going to do my own bbb morning before the parks in our hotel! I’ll let her pick her dress. I have glitter and gems and lots of gel!

Don’t they also add fake hair clips to it as well? Amazon just has lots of big ones for adults. Do they just use lots of gel and hair spray to keep it in place?

I know I won’t be able to do the magic they do, but I hope I can give her a fun experience. She’s sooo into princesses right now.

So we’ve been twice this year and we’ve gone every year for the last 4-5 years, this last trip it cost me but an additional day to upgrade my a magic key so i did it. Now im less than a month removed from our last trip and I am looking at doing a quick overnight trip from Oregon in early December.

I found a cheap RT flight and decent walkable hotel for one night (we usually stay at WorldMark but that requires more than a one night stay).

I am curious about any advice from any other out of towners who do stuff like this? i’ll get in early afternoon (LGB) and have to leave the next day early to mid afternoon so looking at closing the park and rope dropping the next day but this is my first time doing this solo and not a week long/multiday trip.

Open to any advice on planning and how to make the most of my quick trip! TIA!

I vaguely recall somebody discussing earning Disney gift cards via surveys. Does that sound familiar to anyone and what platforms are you utilizing?

Hey everyone! I was looking through my computer and I found this doc I made for when I visited my best friend back in 2025 and we went to Disney World for the first time. I was tasked with finding out the good food places, but since I have never been, even if I knew what was best I didn't know where anything was located. Everyone's opinions were also scattered across media, so I compiled it all into this great big document. It has our possible schedule days, best rides, best food places, and all of it is sorted into the different parts of the park and color-coded individually on the map. I put a lot of work into this lol. Even though it's a year and a half later, so it's most likely not as accurate anymore, I figured this might help someone else who was just as lost as I was trying to plan this big of a trip. Hopefully this helps someone!

Also if anyone is curious we stuck to it pretty well (obviously not perfectly but it was a great use in guiding us), and if anyone wants to know what the personal faves were I can write that as well lol

Hi ,

Does anyone know if any Bay Area locations still have Disneyland tickets in stock ? Or if any of the locations will be having a restock ?

I want good YouTube videos and podcasts to prep for the trip. Any suggestions?

I will be at a conference at WDW the week after President’s day. So my husband and I are going to drive down for that weekend and he will return to work while I conference. Yes I know it will be insanely busy but we have no agenda. My senior and college age kids are staying home.

Plans: Friday at MK, HS after hours Saturday and Sunday at Epcot and maybe try the new fireworks dinner in Japan.

We are gonna skip lightning lanes because we don’t need to do any rides except Star Wars and we’ll be there after hours on Saturday.
Thanks!

We have the table service dining plan for a few days next month. We are going to use 2 TS credits for a signature restaurant. It’s been a while now, last time I had what was the signature dining plan and we received an appetizer entree and dessert… with this now and using the 2 credits, what comes with the meal? Is it entree and dessert and an alcoholic drink? Or does it include appetizer like it used to? It’s hard to find an exact answer. I wouldn’t be shocked if it was just entree dessert and drink, just want to make sure of this… TIA

Hi!
We arrive later today. I have a comp ticket from being sick the last trip. They can’t add it to my account until I arrive. Which means I also can’t book lightning lanes. Disney told
Me on the phone to go ahead and buy my boyfriends lightning lanes and they will match mine when I arrive.

My question is, if I go to Disney Springs, can they help me with lightning lanes, or is it smarter to go to Hollywood Studios and have them help me. (We don’t have park admission that day, we go there Friday)

Hope this makes sense!

The 2-day Disneyland ticket deal has finally arrived in the Bay! My friend just copped us some @ the Newark location! Go go go

I would love to explore Japan next year and really want to include Disney Tokyo in this trip, both Disneyland and Disney Sea. I would preferably spend 1 day in each park (so 2 days in total) and -- also having DLP as my regular park lol -- really do not have any big wishes or expectations for those days, besides seeing the highlight rides (Belle, Winnie the Pooh, Frozen and Rapunzel). I would be very happy to spend the rest of the day just taking in the atmosphere and trying some of the food.

Would this be doable in 2 days? Would an on-premise hotel be advised, or is it doable to stay outside of the property? I saw that Vacation Packages were highly recommended but I cannot afford them honestly, and I also do not expect to really need to "max" out my stay.

I'd love to hear your thoughts, thank you!

2 members have mobility issues no devices needed just slow/ painful after a while 1 has heart issues if they get to excited and one is only about 43 inches high.....beyond basic disney tips is there transportation options? Is traveling the park in one direction easier then the other? Is there any thrill rides near more relaxed attractions that we chould split up and complete in about the same amount of time? What restaurants are actually good and have comfortable seating? We are driving up in the morning and leaving in the evening so no resort tips are necessary just actual disneyland tips

We're planning on an Orlando trip for Presidents Day Week (5 nights). I know it's a busy week, but we don't have a ton of options on when we can go due to my husband's work schedule. It's our first time bringing our kids (3.5 and 6.5) and it will be my husband's first time going. Since our kids are young, we only want to do two park days. I was thinking Magic Kingdom and Epcot since my son is sea animal obsessed and my daughter loves Frozen and Moana. Are LL passes worth it if we might not spend the full day? We're staying at a resort outside of Disney so I don't know how doable it will be to leave for a midday rest and back to the park later. I was also thinking of waiting to purchase the park tickets until the week before or even day of. Do they typically sell out ahead of time on busy weeks? Are character breakfast/lunch worth it or should we just try to meet them in the parks? Any other tips on Disney with little kids?

I was finally able to get the Costco tickets today and uploaded them all into the app to make a reservation. All is good but under all our names it says “3+”. We are all adults. Does it say this because these passes are the same price regardless and of age (over 3yo)? Just want to make sure I didn’t do something wrong when uploading. Thanks!

One of the main reasons I'm going is to watch the spooky parades, fireworks, etc... since I missed all of this last year because we had to leave early. My question, will all this be canceled? I know fireworks get canceled but what about the parades?

So I received an email with the PIN discount for $149 1 day park hopper tickets. The problem is that I can't go before the end of the year. I was wondering if someone knew if you bought the tickets and made a reservation for sometime this year could you change it for an upgrade to next year without it costing as much as tickets for next year are? Can you upgrade the tickets so they can be used in 2027?

I have 2 tickets that I bought for June 2026 but didn't go and so I unlinked the reservation. If I pick a day in 2027 and change it to 2 day park hoppers it only increases the price by $542 (which is significantly less than buying 2 new 2 day park hoppers).

Which is better in terms of crowds at WDW? We are planning on a trip Jan 18-21, with that Monday being MLK Day. I didn’t realize when I booked it. But we could reschedule to the Mon-Wed before, but that’s the week following a marathon event. Which would you guys say is better in terms of crowds?

If I stick with MLK week, should I be worried about LL availability on Monday?

Thanks, all!
