Disney tips & tricks

1.The bounce back offer which is only offered to those who already on property looking to rebook for a later time can be very valuable because they can offer you benefits that may not be available to the general public like free dining plans, room discounts, etc. now keep in mind that you must book before 10pm of check out day which you can always cancel afterwards in case you cant commit. The number to call for more info is 8844 or the front desk at the Disney resort you are staying at.

2.Always go left because large crowds tend to go right bank on it it’s almost guaranteed this happens.

3.If you’re on a dining plan in order to maximize your credits eat snacks for breakfast, counter service meal for lunch, and your table service meal for dinner. By the way, the best places to grab breakfast is at epcot especially Norway and France they have the best pastries and they open the earliest.

4.Wear your Celebration pin/button because cast members will go out of their way to create extra magic for you like free swag, cupcake, fast pass, money(totally kidding on money).

5.Know where the parade starts because you can get the best views possible if you know where to be especially magic kingdom which parades usually start in frontier land. If you watch it there first, you can go off and ride other rides while other people are still watching the parade on main street.

6.Plan accordingly when it comes to closures and/or refreshes because if you come once a year why come when space mountain is closed for maintenance? By the way, closures mostly happen during off peak season which is January thru early march.

7.Always watch the second show whether if it’s a parade, fireworks show, etc. always opt for the second showing so you can ride other rides while everyone is watching the show.

8.Park hop during extra magic hours, In other words, go to the park that had EMH the day before first to avoid crowds then the following day later on in the day go to the EMH park and so on.

9.Ride twice with little to no wait by going to the most popular rides at each park during rope drop while having a fast pass for the same ride for that day. The park doesn’t get super busy until 1-2 hours after opening.

10.Schedule an early breakfast ahead of park opening so you’ll be one of the first in the park that way once rope drops your already there and behind the rope(no running which is frowned upon). For instance, if you want to ride Seven dwarfs mine train book a reservation at be our guest restaurant so once your done its coaster time.

11.Wait for the second bus unless you like standing and smelling other people armpits.

12.Use the resort monorail instead of the express one because its faster than the express and if your at magic kingdom its only one stop from the TTC.

13.Use both sides of the line because once again crowd mentality( see rule #2)

14.Don’t forget to take advantage on discounts especially snacks AP holders have those discounts anytime to use at their disposal.

15.Bring your own snacks so if you are a Amazon prime member you can have your snacks delivered to the resort so it will be waiting for you now.

16.Guest relations has a pin trading book which has a vast selection of pins to choose from.

17.Use the restroom before getting online.

18.Prepare for weather by packing a poncho, sunhat, sun glasses, etc.

19.Character calls for birthdays, anniversaries, etc.

20.Compliment a cast member if they deserve it lol.
