    Skyliner Ladies/Gentlemen

    I, for one, am absolutely shocked they turned back on this thing they implemented so half-heartedly they didn't bother to check all their modes of transportation over the course of multiple years to make sure it was actually gone. Next you'll be telling me Disney wasn't that ashamed of Splash...

    just got back.. rode the New Buzz .. not evc friendly..

    Yes, but when you got up to the ride did they give you the option to leave the wheelchair with a cast member and walk into a normal spaceship or was it assumed you were taking the wheelchair friendly spaceship? If there was no option to leave the wheelchair behind then it's possible the ride...

    just got back.. rode the New Buzz .. not evc friendly..

    It might be less the actual queue and more a logistics issue of where they would put all the scooters. Buzz seems tight on space. Haunted Mansion and Little Mermaid send you down to the exit for disabled boarding, but I don't believe Buzz does. When you showed up with the wheelchair did you...

    News Trader Sam's Tiki Terrace at Disney's Polynesian Resort Closes for Refurbishment

    Tiki Terrace is an outdoor area with its own little bar. It serves the same drinks, I think, but had none of the theming that causes Grog Grotto to fill up and get a wait. If you ever walked out of the quick service towards the pool, it was immediately to your left.

    News Walt Disney World Heat Safety Tech? Disney Patents System to Help Guests Manage Summer Heat

    If they're so concerned maybe they should make entirely indoor queues, regardless of what it will do to their air conditioning bill. I would think that would be the issue, not the minutes spent on the ride itself. Okay, so what if I don't pay extra for Lightning Lane and haven't booked a bunch...

    Coke Freestyle Machines?

    DHS New eats arrive at Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant on April 1

    I'm seriously curious if they just didn't care or assembled a group that had no familiarity with drive ins by coincidence. There are plenty in Florida, maybe they should've scrounged up for a research trip. Or Googled.

    News New Video Screens Added to Expedition Everest Queue at Animal Kingdom

    Anyone still expecting the yeti to be fixed is living in a fantasy land. Might as well ask when they're reopening 20,000 Leagues while you're at it.

    News Disney Springs Bus Service to Resorts Now Requires Reservation Verification

    Someone mentioned earlier th deluxe resorts having the Easter egg displays, but I don't think anyone brought up that all of them have smaller Easter events that involve actually giving stuff away, like games by the pool with prizes and egg hunts. I can see why Disney wants to discourage local...

    News Disney Springs Bus Service to Resorts Now Requires Reservation Verification

    I went there a few times! Olivia's is great. I just never picked it for weekend wandering. The quick service is outdoors and that's the last thing you want after an hour of walking around in the sun. I get the frustration, it would suck to walk that far. I just feel like in order for this to...

    News Disney Springs Bus Service to Resorts Now Requires Reservation Verification

    You can do it, of course. But if you're going to take a roundabout way that involves multiple modes of transportation to arrive at a place, then that family shouldn't be shocked when they have to take a roundabout way back. Having wandered around every bit of Disney property many times (except...

    They wouldn't get to Polite Pig to begin with, buses don't run there or back.

    Is everything just IP mandate quota now?

    Zoogether isn't even half a year old, I would hold off on calling it a rousing success that totally beats out that twenty five year old thing it replaced for at least a decade. "Dinoland" was a pathway to a thrill ride and a quick service by the time they opened Zoogether. In particular, it...

    News Disney Springs Bus Service to Resorts Now Requires Reservation Verification

    Parking at Yacht was so bad once they told us to go to Beach but that was just as bad so they let us in the reserved valet section. That was Fourth of July and I was having dinner not staying there, though.

    I didn't know they blocked the parking on block out days, too! Wow. Sorry if I seemed snarky.
