    The last time we went to Epcot (Christmas Day 2022), we did Genie+. We rope dropped Remi, Virtual'd Cosmic, and G+'d Frozen, Spaceship Earth, Soarin, and Living with the Land. Shaved several hours off of our wait time and left more time for the Cookie Stroll (pro tip-bring a back and save a few cookies as the "reward" is another cookie).

      If you can go to an after-hours party then you will not have to use genie plus except for maybe one or two certain rides within if you can go away right before or after a holiday that is another slow time within the parks and you will not have to use genie plus except if there is a certain ride that you really must ride but that is what I do when I go to Disney . I do not use genie

      It’ll depend on when exactly your group is called in.
      If you’re in the first 25 or so groups at park opening, it’ll basically be a walk on. Past that I wanna say in the range of 30-40 minutes from my experience. It really just comes down to when you get called in to ride

    I enjoy watching AJ's videos because somehow they reminds me of how WDW was just a few short years ago but no longer is..The outrageous price hikes, genie+, mobile food ordering, having to stare at my phone all day, and the eliminatiom of previously free perks are more than enough reasons to never go to WDW ever again.

    I couldn't believe what I heard at 15:05 and had to rewind. Personally, I would not slap the same date-based restrictions on the Military Salute ticket that the convention and sports tickets have. Seems like the men and women defending our freedoms deserve a little more consideration than the dude there on a work trip with the "Ronco Vacuum Cleaner Annual Sales Convention"...

    I don’t quite understand the point of these videos. Most of it is go check out our other video for more of an explanation. Then some things feel like it doesn’t need to be said? I personally love the longer format videos cause I press play and listen along as I do my other things. But videos like these feel like we could just go over what’s actually important in 5-10 minutes.

    • @elgordo687
      @elgordo687 4 місяці тому +4

      Saying check out another video for more info is good if you’re planning a trip or just interested. It doesn’t even take 30 seconds. I like that some videos are an hour & some are 10 minutes. Variety is important, we don’t all always have the time or attention span for only long form videos. They do everything perfect.

      I personally love being able to search exactly what I’m looking for and have a whole detailed video. Some people also already know certain things so new videos with new details is always welcome. In the case of this video… I know all about genie+ but didn’t know everything the park had to offer.
