you forgot the best method to be picked up from MCO - "Away We Go" a private shuttle service, so it's only you & your party. They provide car seats even when one of the children is a newborn & a toddler. They will make a stop for you at the Publix, ( to pick up a pre-placed order, none of this loggy gagging in the aisles and checkouts) are very communicative if flights are delayed. It's all for a reasonable price. When you make these videos please do better research to include all options

little bit of misinformation there. As a resort guest, you do NOT get advance dining reservations. You need to go on every day and make them. Per PlanDisney. " Disneyland Resort dining reservations cannot currently be made for a complete length of stay, so you’ll need to make your arrangements one day at a time if you wish to secure reservations at the 60-day mark for each day of your visit."

Congrats on a nice channel. Appreciate the quality and structure of your videos. Lots of good information in this one. Well done.

Your video quality & graphics enhance the Disney content! Keep up the great work

My husband and I were between this resort and Caribbean Beach for our first anniversary trip coming up this summer. Everyone except one person told us to book Coronado hands down. Thank you for all the helpful info!

What time do the buses start running?

Great information!👏

Was the car rental place close to the port? We are renting a car from there for the 2 days as well.

I've put my annual pass in my iPhone wallet and loaded that to my apple watch. I can check into the park, into lighting lanes and tap to get ride pictures with my watch. Bascially like a Magic Band.

Thank you so much for the honesty!! I loved this video. We are going next May and so very excited.

Again, we were on your same itinerary - Aulani + Disney Wonder from Honolulu to Vancouver this year. You guys did what we should have! I'm fascinated by volcanoes, so I was really looking forward to the Big Island! I'd booked a helicopter tour of Kilauea and east Hawaii. You were there, so you can guess how the helicopter tour ended up - cancelled! We spent the day on the ship, which wasn't the worst consolation prize. My wife enjoyed a long and greatly-discounted massage from Senses Spa, and I had a great time photographing and videoing decks 9 & 10 in the periodic monsoons you experienced in the Jeep. Best part of this video was seeing ourselves in Tiana's Place at 18:09 in your vlog!!! I thought we were on the same dining rotation based on the restaurant sequence in your vlogs - just wasn't sure if you were early or late. Before this cruise, we had a 7-night Mexican Riviera on the Wonder in April of 2025 as our next cruise. Now we have the 4-night to Catalina and Ensenada ahead of the 7-night for a B2B, and a 7-night on the Fantasy out of Southampton, U.K. to Northern Europe B2B with the 7-night British Isles added to our pending reservations list! These things are so addicting!!! :) Looking forward to the next one!!!

Loved that cruise did you see me on the ship? 🛳️

Amazing video. Love the editing you did

You mention the weight on luggage, is there a weight limit for this? Im going on the Disney cruise soon, and I was under the impression that there was not a weight limit for luggage.

Your ocean view resort room is beautiful! We've stayed in both a resort (hotel) room and deluxe studio before, and enjoy the option to request two queen beds you get in the resort room. And it's a little more spacious than the deluxe studio too! Enjoyed your video!!

the most beautiful place I've ever been, tied with Alaska. We stayed outside of Lahaina and I'm so grateful I got to experience it before the devastation.

Nice tour, thanks! Is the fitness area unavailable unless you purchase the rainforest pass?

I am a mix of old and new tech.... I want a key to the world card as back up, but then use my Magic Band +

What happens if you’re staying on property but want to rent a car mid week of our stay? .. we are planning on using Disney’s transportation in the beginning but I know I want to plan to rent a car at least mid way of our vaca. Is there an option by Disney for that?

Missing the lazy river already!

Miss this already! Let's go back.

Not a fan of Starbucks, so we're even! LOL. Monkeypod is such a great place to go when staying at Aulani. I know you don't drink alcohol, but for those that do their regular Mai Tai is very good!

Loved Aulani! ❤

My wife and I are going next month (Port Orleans Riverside) & are wondering if Ride Share or Disney Vans are scooter accessible?

We were on your cruise, and spent three days at Aulani prior to boarding the Disney Wonder! Really looking forward to your videos!!!

Thank you for this video! I was searching all over for this up to date explanation. We are taking our kids for the first time. My husband and I haven’t been since 2013 and SO much has changed in terms of you now pay for so many things that used to be complimentary. (Airport shuttle, magic bands, fast pass…so sad!) I think I’m going to forgo the magic band and use my phone/the key to the world card. I think my 5 year old daughter will think the card is just as exciting as the band!! I’ll save the 100 dollars and use it for genie plus or something!! Thanks again for the confirmation!!

It was so nice to meet you guys!

You stay on-property if you can afford it. You stay off-property if you can’t.

Heads up!

the car services are FANTASTIC, but...rideshare is cheap, abundant, and (usually) fast. the exception is when it is a super-busy arrival time. then rideshare can make you wait up to an hour... if you use a car service, and if you check bags, some of the car services will also grab your bags off the carousel to load into the vehicle.

your vacation began when you hear the mayor's voice welcoming you to orlando.

That was a great video guys I’m trying to stay here so this was a hopeful video 🎉

We found our teens loved being together. The odd time we would separate.

Amazing Disney info & I love the editing. Next level quality.

I was able to use my finger for my child. He did a great job wearing his (6 years old) and we used the band protector.

The key to the world card also does not have anything to do with interacting with statues or ride/fireworks interaction

I recently used my magicband from a 2019 trip and it worked perfectly. Hope it is still working for another trip later this year. Also Canadians can no longer order Magicbands ahead of time to pick up at resorts.

Forgot to add under the rental video that if you are AP you get free parking at the parks. After dealing with shuttles since 2009. I feel car rentals are the way to go. I started to see the buses are way over crowded. Sometimes having to wait for another one. Morning or night. Last 3 trips I have rented a vehicle and will never look back. Car rates are so cheap and I tend to book and cancel for the best rate till my trip. 🎉

Good morning. 🙌

Aloha.

As a WDW frequent flyer I have to say this video was very well done. If cost is no issue we always stay at the EPCOT hotels. Yacht Club being our favorite. These hotels are within walking distance of two parks as well as the dining options at six hotels. There is also boat transportation to those two parks. In addition to all that there is the Disney Sky Liner which is our favorite form of transportation. Our second choice is the Caribbean Beach hotel. Again the Sky Liner.

Actually, if you are a resort guest, parking at the parks is "free".

Our multi-family group stayed at Coronado Springs for our last WDW trip and loved it. The resort is gorgeous with striking Spanish Modern/Mexican/Southwest US architecture. The design is more sophisticated than many resorts, but you will find that there is a subtle homage to the Disney heritage everywhere if you look. We had rooms in the Gran Destino Tower that are larger than any other "moderate" WDW rooms and larger than some "deluxe" resort rooms. Restaurants are good to excellent, but we weren't able to dine at all of the restaurants. (Toledo is a great "date night" dinner location with 16th floor views over the WDW property). We wanted to try "Three Bridges" restaurant, but the wait times were always longer than our patience. Downside of Coronado Springs is that the resort is huge, with lots of walking if your room is located away from the central location. Within the WDW property, Coronado Springs is 10 minutes from Animal Kingdom, 15 minutes from Hollywood Studios and Epcot, and 20 minutes (or more) from Magic Kingdom, but only 5 minutes from Typhoon Lagoon. We all agreed that we would stay at CS next time we go.

On our last WDW trip, our multi-family group used the Mears black limo van & loved it. We had a roomy luxury van chauffeured directly from MCO to our resort. Our driver texted us when we arrived with meet instructions, we texted back when we had picked up our bags, met the driver & our van was right outside. Cost per person was very reasonable, close to the cost of the Mears bus. We would definitely look at this service again for our next trip.

Funtierland and Magicwayvillas have condos that are just across Walnut Street on the opposite side of the parks than Harbor Drive. We have stayed there twice with extended family (8+ persons) and loved it. Short walk, less crowded security gates on that side of Downtown Disney in the morning.

Just found your channel. I agree with everyone of your must haves.

Frequent DW visitor. I prefer the MB+. Helps to have the additional features. Bad part is the battery life isn't very long. If you play the bounty hunter game the battery will drain quickly. Another cool feature is the vibrations. The band will vibrate when you walk by an interaction point or during shows. Regular MB will lose the location features after a few years but still work at touch points. Don't throw your fancy band away! Disney use to give those band savers to annual passholders and they came with the Dooneys. Don't know if still a thing. Enjoyed the content.

Why the bloody hell would any sane citizen want to have anything to do with Disney? Disney shits on America.

This is great info about the classic Magic Bands. We have ones from 2019 and we were wondering if they would still work. Thank you all for the comments!!😃
