I was able to get a spot to watch Rivers of Light in the Asia viewing area. Is this any good? We've never seen RoL before.

I shouldn't need to worry about this multiple-month-out dinner reservation thing if I plan to only eat quick service..... right?

Generally most folks get what they want with their home resort advantage. There are a couple exceptions like the Value studios at AKL (people are insane about these) and some other standard view rooms at other resorts, but Poly shouldn't be a problem. Poly does fill up pretty quick at the 7 month mark, just like all the monorail resorts do. I would be shocked if you didn't get exactly what you wanted though. We're planning a trip Thanksgiving 2018, and I need a 2BD and a studio at BLT for our family that week. I might not get standard view, but lake view shouldn't be a problem. skipdogg fucked around with this message at 18:52 on Aug 13, 2017 |

Just closed on our DVC purchase. We now own 0.45% of a unit at BLT lol. That's like 3 sq ft of a 1 bedroom unit.

That's worth reporting to someone. If an entire browser (or even just some versions of it) isn't supported, Disney needs to know about it and fix it.

Quick question here. I booked through Orbitz, so I didn't get tickets, only vouchers which I have to redeem at will-call for peoper tickets. Apparently I can link these to the disney website, but have to jump through some hoops to do so. If I do go through the process and get the tickets linked, then prebuy a magic band and link that to my account, will I still need to go to will-call to get my tickets "activated" or will I be able to walk right up to the parks' gates with my magic band?

If you can link them, you wouldn't need to pick them up.

Disney policy was "tell them because it was bought third party you can't link them". You'll still have to go to Will Call if they even let you link them. Disney hates third party tickets.

They probably will just close the ticket with a "the account is working". I used to take those calls and HP is useless when it comes to those things. Ad blocker was definitely a culprit a lot of the time.

Also there was a rumor going around the call center that Disney was quietly going to start deleting PhotoPass photos of annual pass holders past 15 days or something silly. You might be one of the unfortunate test subjects.

I think they get moved to the cloud at that point. I bet that's where that rumor came from. I swear if I hear "don't activate your memory maker because then you can only download for 30 days! Wait till you're home!" one more time...

Oof yeah even us who sold it would say that like thirty times but the confusing part was they still had to link it 3 or more days before. Memory Maker is cool and good but poorly done. I don't really understand the point of the three day discount, was there some kind of weird backwork you guys had to do for everyone one? Also if someone called and said they had no pictures from their trip we'd transfer them to you, but then what would you do, have to go throw a whole days of pics looking for the persona phone description?

Eh, the idea was to offer a discount for folks purchasing in advance. when it was photopass plus it was 14 days, but a drc res could add it three days before. I think that's why they kept it. They deliberately set it up so the memory maker will never allow photos from that waiting period to work with the prearrival memory maker. Funnily enough they told us when it launched we didn't need to know anything about memory maker because we wouldn't sell it. Then every department began transferring every call to us. A lot of those lost photo transfers end up with us figuring out who did what wrong. It's unusual to say the least for a large number of photos to just go missing. Maybe they never claimed their res, maybe someone isn't sharing photos, they never linked their photopass card, maybe grandma has all the photos on her account and never told anyone she had one. Otherwise we were looking at the other photos in your account and searching till we found them. Honestly as long as you got me the right day and location I could probably find them 99% of the time. Hell I once used the shadows in the photo from their cell phone to find photos on main street 8 hours after the time they told me. I do miss some aspects of that role sometimes.

Huh cool always wondered thanks man. Yeah some portions of the job I miss but -as I'm sure you can attest also - the call center was garbage job. Which is probably why we were paid so well ($14hr) but turnover was crazy.

I really wish there was an easier way to add friends and family on the My Disney Experience website and app. I mean, really dumb it down for the masses, Disney.

You'd think you should be able to put in just a email and link up but nope it's some inane process that works about 20% of the time, forcing you to have to call to get it to work (and this is a problem Disney knows of). PhotoPass day is a long wait of a mess I guess from what Twitter is saying. That's sad, but I don't know what else I expected.

It's probably convoluted for 2 reasons: to further curb exploiters of the system and because some systems within Disney make no sense

Does anyone know which restaurants at Disney Springs accept Disney giftcards? Disney's website is all but useless and doesn't specifically say which ones. Looking at either STK or Morimoto for dinner this weekend and wanna use up these giftcards I got from work.

Those both take DDP, so I would assume they take Disney Giftcards. Just an ASSumption on my part though.

IIRC every restaurant on Fosney Property takes Gift card. Give Disney a call to tell for sure, as it says on the hub but I don't have access anymore so can't look
