    I don’t know if I’m just now noticing it, but i LOVE these little clips you leave sometimes at the end of your podcast. I’ve been a listener for a few months, but just recently discovered them! The Voices of Liberty at Christmas made me so happy! And its May! I’ve been getting caught up on podcasts i’ve missed and they add just a little bit more magic to the podcasts!

    What is the website for dining reservation alerts? I don’t see it in the notes.

    • Shannon Albert March 23, 2018

      That site is MouseDining.com

  3. Mike March 5, 2018 Reply

    Regarding FP4ME.com – that site is currently closed (catching up on old episodes; it’s March 5, 2018 now). You may want to update your listeners. Below is the message when going to the site.

    “Thanks for visiting fp4me. Unfortunately, the site is currently closed. I’m no longer able to keep up with the costs and time required to keep it running.”

      I saw the same thing 🙁

    What happening with the Disney World Travel Insurance?

    I just read that dw will be selling extra fp+ . Is this true?

    • Shannon Albert January 13, 2018

      Yep! You can read more about it at https://wdwprepschool.com/how-to-get-difficult-fastpass-reservations/#New_Some_guests_can_pay_to_purchase_FastPass

    I’ve been discussing Disney all week on my blog. Beyond ready for our upcoming trip in April!

    While booking a room only reservation for Pop Centry this coming November, the WDW cast member told me that I will be able to make fast pass+ selections 70 days prior! I asked her to repeat that and she verified that guest staying on property can book fast pass+ 70 days out. This may be the perk for us who are on property. Thanks for all you do, love the site and the podcast!

    • Shannon Albert January 9, 2018

      At 60 days before your trip begins, you can make up to 10 days worth of FastPass+. That’s what she was referring to.

    • Tony Lee January 11, 2018

      Thanks for clarifying that and all the great content!

I just got back from a five night stay at Coronado Springs and had the best time! Even though I went during the busy season I barely waited in any lines and was able to do everything I wanted!
