You can now use your Disney Gift Card as your default payment method in the Disneyland and Disney World (aka My Disney Experience) apps and save your gift cards to your Disney Wallet! This is a huge upgrade vs having to always type in the gift card number or scan the code each time. More details here: https://mickeyvis
I started writing a post about how Disney can solve the Moonlight Magic registration problem and decided to turn it into a blog! https://dvcfan.com/dvc-discounts/moonlight-magic/dvc-needs-more-moonlight-magic-events/
General registration link is live and posted in the thread above! Good luck if you're trying to register!
Cash stays no longer qualify (as of 2024) for Moonlight Magic registration UNLESS they were booked through DVC Member Services and you can only book DVC Villas when you book through DVC Member Services. So you wouldn't have been able to register 10 people. If you only have 1 membership number then you cannot try again
I suspect the big Star Wars fans all went to see the movie the first weekend but what Disney needed was the general moviegoer, maybe some of whom have never seen the Mandalorian TV show to also see the movie and it doesn't seem like they came out to see the movie despite the reviews from audiences being good and OK fro
Sorry to hear. Moonlight Magic registration is essentially a lottery and there isn't really anything you can do to better your chances of registering. Everybody gets the same chance and your spot is randomly assigned at 11am Eastern when the queue officially opens. The events almost always sells out during early regist
Just added to the first post: BJ's (Unknown Expiration Date) If you're a BJ's Wholesale Club member, BJ's has Disney Gift Cards (physical only) on Sale below their regular price. They also have both digital coupons and physical coupons (often the physical coupons are B&M only) they mail out that can be used on DGC purc
Regardless of how well the movie does - Disney is making a killing off of merchandise sales, so I think it will still ultimately be viewed as a success by Disney even if the movie itself isn't viewed as one. Grogu merch is still selling really well :) Personally, I want Star Wars movies to do well so Disney continues t
Forgot to post a follow up, we saw it in IMAX at a completely packed theater on Friday May 22nd. I personally thought it was a good, but not great movie. It doesn't have the same "universe changing" or large impact that the Skywalker Saga has in each movie and there wasn't anything offensive in it that at least in my o
Interesting - I watched a video comparing the 2 side by side and the length of the ride was almost identical, actually the video of the ride in 2026 finished before the video of the ride in 2025 meaning it was faster by a little bit and it wasn't down to lift hills being faster. I can understand though how it might fee
Swan and Dolphin (and Swan Reserve) are not Disney properties they're owned by Marriott, so if you're paying for the room directly with the hotel, through Marriott or through a 3rd party travel agent, you would not get 3% rewards for that and you wouldn't earn towards the $200 reward for $2000 spend for Disney resort s
Would love it if my Beach Club contract ran for longer - even people who bought it before BCV opened only got 40 years. If there were a way to extend a contract and add years that would be awesome too!
I think it'd be interesting if they were all part of the same association because of the trust aspect of it. It'd also be interesting to see if they could offer different expirations for contracts in the same trust as I've heard that can be done with other Time Share programs. Basically in other time shares, everyone g
I liked it overall - the story wasn't "universe changing" like the Skywalker Saga movies tended to be, but I enjoyed the movie and it'll be interesting to see if the events of the movie have further implications that might make the movie more impactful. I liked the fast pacing of the first act which reminded me a bit o
Definitely combine them on the disneygiftcard.com website first if you haven't already - that saves you from needing to read off every card to the CM and can instead just read off cards in $1000 increments.
Are you doing it online, via phone or in person? In person and over the phone it is usually not a problem to pay fully in gift cards. I recommend using the disneygiftcard.com website to add each gift card and combine them into 1 big card ($1000 max). Then you can read the gift card numbers out to the CM or use physical
If you sign up for Paze, you currently can get an additional 10x Chase Ultimate Rewards points back on any purchase made using select Chase cards (Chase Sapphire Preferred, Chase Sapphire Reserve, Chase Freedom, Chase Freedom Flex, Chase Freedom Unlimited). There is a limit of $1500 per month for this bonus. Chase UR p
We've opted to only go to 1 party per year between MNSSHP and MVMCP - its just too expensive to do both. Last year we did the Christmas party, not sure what we're going to do this year - but its probably not the Halloween party. They haven't really changed anything from prior years and even though my kids love getting
Tickets for 10/31 are already sold out, wow! You can still get tickets to other dates for MNSSHP via UnlockedMagic.com which is offering $10 off all tickets for Aug/Sep dates and $15 off all tickets for Oct dates. This beats or matches the AP/DVC rate but works for all customers!
I'm sure he is nice and I'm sure he has a hard job balancing a lot of things, not just ride quality - but Jeff was not the only one dealing with this. All of the other Disney parks have the same challenge, yet Disney World always seems to be the worst when it comes to ride maintenance. I hope that Josh is bringing chan
