Disney World (Orlando, FL) Complaint - What not to do and what to do at Disney
Complaint
If you do go to the most popular amusement park in THE WHOLE WORLD during the busiest times of the year, you WILL face l-o-n-g lines. It is not Disney's fault. Planning and proper use of Fast Passes (FP) are keys. We went Nov. 28-Dec.3. Each morning we got a FP for the most popular attraction (Hollywood: Toy Story, Tower, Rockin'. EPCOT: Soarin', Test Track -get a personalized Driver's License for only $5. Magic Kingdom (MK): Pirates, Buzz.) Then we went to the second most popular and got on quickly. FP TIPS: You can get more than one/day (time printed on bottom). We were told the FP is good from the starting time to the end of that day. TIP: with children, don't do MK first or they may think the other parks are boring in comparison. We did EPCOT first, our grandson enjoyed Living with the Land, Spaceship Earth was good and the personalized ending was a cool/fun surprise. Other than the science being wrong, Ellen's Energy Adventure was dramatic. WARNING: Mission Space has two intensity levels. The more intense (Orange Level)may make you feel sick if you are prone to motion/spinning sickness and I am not kidding. It is very realistic! Disney DOES warn you, so it's not their fault if you get sick. The easier (Green Level)is very mild on the tummy and still dramatic. TIP: Leave babies/toddlers at home. The need for a stroller should be the tip on who not to bring. Wheelchairs: Disney has done lots to make the parks wheelchair-friendly and I applaud them for that. Again, don't come on packed days. Guest Relations: We had a need to use it and Janson (Norwalk, CT)really worked hard to help us. We liked the Carousel of Progress in MK, relaxed, informative, entertaining, v. short wait. Kids may find it a bit "boring" but a little learning is good for them (oh no, learning?!). DON'T MISS: Hollywood: Toy Story, Tower, Rockin', the stunt shows were great, no bad seats. MK: Monsters Inc and Mickey's Philharmagic both very creative. The Hall of the Presidents was inspiring, 'glad Lincoln still takes "center stage". Don't bother: Stitch. A few Disney guests may feel they are "entitled" to the Royal Treatment...be reasonable, plan, and have a magical time. Our longest wait was 25min and we did rides over (Buzz 8 times!). --John W., Beverly Hills, MI

VH! I never understand why people attack Disney because of its long lines. Indeed, it sucks, but that's what happens when you go at peak times. There's nothing Disney can do about that.
Glad you had a good time.
