    Merchandise stores outside of parks

    Well, they were in the same Disney type package I have seen before and have the same markings on the back as some of my other Disney pins that were bought on property. But I don't know for sure, so you could be right. But I do believe that Disney would easily charge 400% or more upcharge on...

    Merchandise stores outside of parks

    On the way to Disney over many years, we always cross this bridge in Orlando and saw a huge "DISNEY SOUVENIRS" sign, but we never stopped. Finally, on a trip to International Drive a few years back (no Disney or Universal) we finally stopped at several of these stores. We found great deals on...

    Why not remove Cinderella's Castle

    Yes, I do. Boy was that ugly! I was so glad when they removed it.

    Why not remove Cinderella's Castle

    Sounds fine with me.

    Space 220

    Glad to hear it. I was Johnny on the spot for our last trip in 2022 at 60-days out and nothing was available for any day we were there. Perhaps someday.

    Rivers of America...once and done or every visit?

    Wow. A 10-year-old thread. Love to do it whenever we are there. Back when we went anyway.

    Tom Sawyer Island

    Tom Sawyer Island is a classic and should stay. Disney needs to expand its parks and not just "reuse" existing land. They have been building guest rooms for what seems like forever while paying little attention to their park guest capacity. Just adding a ride here or there is not sufficient...

    Poll: For those who curbed visits or stopped visiting Disney Parks, what are your top reasons?

    I only picked one: Too many cuts to perks and overall quality. I must admit they are starting to get better...starting that is. The parking fees I paid in 2022 are gone. Advance planning for rides again will be a good upgrade although it needs to be more than 7 days (why, because I want to know...

    When did Disney start overpromising and under delivering?

    I can't defend Iger. But Cheapskate Chapek truly deserves the credit for destroying Disney.

    What happened to people?

    So true, so true. I have reported line cutters before...Disney literally could not care less! So sad what Disney has become.

    If you could implement 1 major change throughout the parks, what would it be?

    Aside from FastPass+, it is beyond stupid that they do not bring back package delivery to your resort. This promotes buying and has to be hurting their retail! Last trip, I know it made me not buy some stuff I otherwise would have.

    Steak at Walt Disney World

    We went to Disney since 1972. Best steak I ever had at Disney was definitely at the Yak-n-Yeti at Animal Kingdom. It beat Steakhouse 71, Le Cellier, Brown Derby, and others.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Florida Yes. Spent a week on International Drive last year and going to Busch Gardens & NASA this year. Disney No.

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    Unfortunately, that has been one of the biggest changes for me. I sang the Disney praise all my life since my first visit in 1972. But now I run the Disney brand into the ground on a very regular basis. I wear my Disney cloths that I accumulated for years, strike up conversation, and then talk...
