If you have a younger child, the droids are a great option. They also interact with other droids throughout Galaxy's Edge.


As a reminder, there are no additional costs to utilize my service and I can assist as much as you would like.

Just got back from a trip Chris put together. Our family had a great time, and Guardians of the Galaxy and Tron both delivered.

Ride Tron at night.
So cool

First timer. Sent you an email Chris

Have not been to Disney, Florida, since 2018. I know inflation has been rough, but My Goodness it got Insanely Expensive!

The last time we did Mickey's Christmas Party in 2014 the tickets were $67. They are now $199? 197% Increase in 10 years. I. Am. Speechless.

Chris, any promos you are seeing for January 2025?

Won't be released for a bit. Best advice is to book with me and I will have the promotion applied the day it comes out.

No additional charges to book with me and you're helping an Aggie small business!

So many good announcements coming out of D23!

Sadly Dinosaur and It's Tough to be a Bug will be gone so I guess I'm doing Animal Kingdom in October after my yearly Universal HHN trip

Reach out to me if you are looking to travel to Disney World or Universal. Plenty of great promotions that go through April 30, 2025. I would love to help your family out.....even if you have been before!

Saw that Disney World and Disneyland released new Premier Passes allowing you a one time lightning lane to every attraction in the park. Both parks for DL and 1 park/day for WDW.

Most of the Disney content creators are mad about the price. Every time I have been in the parks and not on a VIP tour and waiting in a standby line because I didn't have a lightning lane I have thought "there isn't a number I wouldn't pay for a Universal type Express Pass". Granted, these passes aren't cheap, but I will line up to pay them to make my time more enjoyable.

Yes! A lot are complaining but definitely there will be people who would pay it. We paid for unlimited express pass at Universal Hollywood (Christmas week no less) and it was so worth it.

We did the same at Universal Hollywood back in March. But it was less than $100 per ticket to add the express pass. The same pass at Magic Kingdom or Hollywood Studios is going to cost over $400 per ticket. On top of the regular ticket price. That's nuts.

Thinking about going to Disney Land/Universal in Feb. Do we have enough time to plan? How many days at each park, we are dealing with 5, 9 and 11. Is Legoland worth it. We have no frame of reference other than going to WDW and knowing that 5 to 6 days (4 to 5 park days) doesn't really allow time for Universal which is why to switch to California.

Wife just booked 3 nights at shades of green with the plan of going to the park for 3 or 4 days (Mon-Thurs) in Mar for spring break. will have an almost 10 year old and twin 4 year olds. Neither of us have ever been to disney world, will this be sufficient time? I'd rather just run up to the mountains for a week of skiing but got overruled. We took our oldest when he was ~3 or 4 to disneyland when we lived in the LA area for a few years, right before and right after the lockdowns and a day was plenty between the two parks.
Any additional insight or tips is much appreciated.

We have been a few times out to DL and Universal (and Legoland) and we do WDW and Universal Orlando annually.

My thoughts would be to allow 2 days at DL (focus on Disneyland one day, California Adventure the other - though it's a brief walk from one park to the other).

One day at Universal as it is a rather small park with only a few rides. Not sure if the Furious coaster is open, but even the 11yo may find it too intense based on how Universal did Velocicoaster and Stardust Racers in Orlando. They are intense, and Furious looks the same.

Keep in mind that Universal is about an hour by car depending on traffic.

For Legoland, we tagged that on to a couple nights in San Diego (flew into LA, out of SD) as Legoland is on the way and to mee the San Diego Zoo is a can't miss, particularly with the ages of your kids.

Enjoy. No matter what you should have a great time.

Summer is the perfect time for Disney, and there are so many great promotions available right now! Message me today if you'd like a free, no-obligation quote. I have helped many first time and long time visitors.

WDW is much, much bigger than DL and spring break time will make killer crowds. Do plenty of research and prioritize what you want to do. There is a web site , disboards.com that you can get very good planning tips. They even have a forum on Shades of Green that you can get info about that resort and the best way to get military tickets. Have fun and to do everything it usually takes a 7 night stay. Learn about Lightning Lanes to save standing in lines lanes. Also, one last thing thing, the weather can change very fast, shorts one day and jackets the next.

Pro tip: we've stayed at Shades of Green twice with the in laws and you can walk to the Polynesian for Ohana and the monorail.

not sure when you were there last, but the polynesian renovation has closed the walkway between the 2 resorts.

i think they even shut down the crosswalk all together (could be wrong here...). not sure if they plan to reopen it once the poly construction is done.

Good point. Must've been before the renovation because the last few times we've stayed at Coronado.

There's some kind of 3 day deal that was better than buying a 2 day park ticket lol.

Headed to Orlando on Saturday, still debating between Hollywood Studios or Epcot, only reason I'm thinking Hollywood is to ride Aerosmith one final time before the Muppets retheme, but I haven't been to Epcot since 2017 and there's like 3 new rides since then (Frozen, GOTG and Ratatouille the ones that come to mind).

Main reason for this travel is to get on Dinosaur on the final day before they close it forever on Monday

Guardians>Remy>Rocknrollercoaster>Frozen>Dinosaur.

Unless you have daughters then move Frozen to the front.

When do I need to reach out to start booking for May 2027?

Will be soon. Shoot me an email and we can get the booking process started.
