    Virtual queue is a horrible thing. Went outside the disney bubble and kept refreshing the app starting 6:50 am. Comes 7 am - all the virtual queues already filled, both tron and guardians. So, going into the parks. 12:50pm, start refreshing. Comes 1:00 - there is virtual queue open! Actual queue time after 1 pm? About 6 pm! This means the early admission people are already filling 75% of the virtual queues.

    yes, yes, yes. One year we flew down from NYC and had a lovely room in Port Orleans. It took us 15 minutes to get from our room to the bus stop, and most times 15-20 minutes for a bus to arrive. Then the bus took 15-20 minutes to get to Magic Kingdom. On the way back, same amount of time . . you'll start by waiting for your specific resort bus (again can be 15-20 minutes.). **** note; it was NOT due to the bus schedule; it just takes a long time to get all the children, strollers, elderly, wheelchairs, etc. on and off and YOUR BUS MAKES STOPS; it is not "get on at your resort and non stop to park" itself.

    when you leave Magic Kingdom at night to get to your car at TTC there will be two monorails to chose from: the "local" which goes to the 3 hotels on a small loop (Contemp.-Poly- Grand Fl.) or the main line monorail which is non stop from MK to TTC, the one everyone heads to.. BUT, those in the know take the hotel loop monorail because . . . . it also stops at TTC !!! However, from about 10 years ago thanks to YT vlogs like this, now most visitors know this !!! So the Hotel monorail line has actually taken us LONGER. Reason is the hotel-monorail line has less cars . . but there is that alternaative.

    Last weekend my mom rented an ECV for the first time due to an injury. She got one directly through Disney when we arrived at MK in the morning. Around noon we went to the ECV rental place before we planned to hop to AK, and the cast members running the ECV rentals were very clear that you could not transfer the ECV purchase from one park to another. You would have to re-rent another ECV at AK upon arrival. I protested, as this is ridiculous practice, and told them I'd gotten this info from your videos, and heard it from other Disney forums I follow, but they said this is a new rule. So, just FYI I would stop giving out false info about the ECV rentals through the parks. If you rent at one park, make sure you're not hopping or you're ready to cough up another 65 at the second park.
