      If you go on Valentine's day they usually have special snacks offered, and a few extra spots in front of Cinderella's Castle that the cast members have special poses they can put you in to take super cute photos!! My partner and I went two yrs ago for valentine's day and the best budget tip is forget the fancy meals, and grab a quick-serve food and sit in the little sitting areas near the castle like your own little picnic!!

    Ok but FOR REAL the best budget tip is DON'T buy the expensive rooms at AKL (unless that's like REALLY ur thing)!! You can walk around outside and see the animals, and they even have cast members out who teach you about them sometimes. AND there's a night event extra where you can go in the dark and see the animals at night with night vision goggles (haven't done it myself but have heard good things). Also, unless you're literally there in the middle of the day, the animals don't come that close like the commercials make it seem. Frankly, you might not even see anything more than the animals walking away or just standing and eating from a distance.

    You said “who doesn’t have have a train in your back yard”. ....well we did! My dad built a live steam engine just like Walt did and we had a track and trestle in our yard while I was growing up. Dad, who just turned 97, is a train enthusiast like Walt was . We are hoping to come to WDW in May of 2024, and see the Magic Kingdom train, which was closed during our last visit.

      Don’t be afraid of the weather. We went at the beginning of August and didn’t die of the heat! We alternated activities. One that required some outdoor waiting then followed it with indoor activity…show, restaurant etc. We used handheld fans and cooling towels. You can do it😂

      I live about an hour away from Disney it is very hot there will be a high heat index so just be careful. The nights are starting to cool down slightly. Make sure that you bring electrolyte drinks with you and bring a cooling towel. Do not push yourself I would say go out early in the morning and then in the evening. Make sure that you do wear some kind of hat and sunblock.the heat is no joke I also work outside so just be mindful . One of the hottest parks to attend will be animal Kingdom and also Hollywood studios in toy story and starwars land no shade.

    The line for Tron was almost 2 hours when we went. We had the virtual cue and they called groups 1-30 all at the same time (before the park was even open) and that line was HORRENDOUS! It's also VERY sunny, so it was unbearable. We left the line and decided we would ride it another time... like when there wasn't a heat advisory 😅

    About the TRON Virtual Queue; what happens if you scheduled a time slot to get on the ride, but you are on the opposite side of the park and you cannot make it back to TomorrowLand on time, do you lose your place?

    Also Cinderella’s table is a pre paid dining experience meaning it needs to be paid in full at time of booking. I booked today for our trip in December for 5 of us the grand total was $513. We have been to Disney world several times and we have eaten at just about every character dining experience
    Except Cinderella’s table, it’s typically booked full I’m not really sure how we scored a table December 26th my travel agent must be a genie .

    Virtual que is very misleading. I was able to grab a spot in the 1:00 pm drop for guardians at 6: at 5:20 our group was called. We scanned right in, and had a 2 HOUR WAIT to ride. Had I know I never would have done it. I wasted half my evening on 1 ride. THERE IS NOTHING IN DISNEY ANYWHERE THAT IS WORTH A 2 HOUR WAIT!!! NOTHING. Add the increased pricing, nickel and dimeing of everything, and the paid fast pass and the park experience is very disappointing. Far from the happy place that it used to be!

    • @suewalton8822
      @suewalton8822 9 місяців тому +2

      I also heard those virtual ques still meant a wait of at least 30 minutes. But 2 hours, geez! I guess I need to factor in the cost of an ILL, cause I’m still riding Guardians, regardless. 😂

    • @shaggydog2012
      @shaggydog2012 9 місяців тому +1

      A virtual queue is not a lightning lane! You still have to wait in line for popular rides. They can manage a 2 hour line but not a 4 hour line. The virtual queue gains you the privilege to get in line. Nothing more. And it's free. LL is $20 or more.

    • @Daisy-cj3og
      @Daisy-cj3og 9 місяців тому

      ​@shaggydog2012 Virtual que is supposed to hold your place in line while you do something else so you don't waste your time. If the wait is that long, then they should not be calling the next round of boarding groups. Especially 40 minutes early! Very misleading! And I know the know difference between ILL and virtual que.

I slept great at the French quarter, and you can bring your own pillow. I've slept in alot of hotels (hilton mostly) so that was the best night stay EVER! yea your paying more for a fancy stay, but still. The one complaint I had was the honking at like 10;00 at night.....Half way through you will get used to it, but still it's funny and frustrating at the same time.
