We have just returned home today to Scotland from 2 weeks at Disney World. While you were filming this on July 4th we were enjoying the unexpected quietness of Hollywood Studios! Your videos have helped us out so much in making our holiday so successful and enjoyable and my husband took every opportunity to pass on your tips to other park guests in the lines! We loved playing the genie slots and as you suggest, looked at it like a game - celebrating each time we managed to get an earlier time. Amazing!! Thank you so much, Rob! 🙌

Your content is seriously the most helpful by far! I've looked up so many tips on Reddit about how to beat the heat at the park, but I never saw anyone mention how the Emporium has connected the entire length of Main Street or how Tortuga Tavern opens early and offers seating in AC while it's practically empty. I think these tips will save us during our August trip, especially since a family member with skin cancer will be joining us and needs to be very cautious about staying out in the sun too long. Thank you so much!

Hi Rob, my name is Flavio, I'm from Brazil and I have just came back from Disney World and I have to thank you bro. Before going, I watched all your videos and prepared myself with your tips like a pro for all kinds of situations in all 4 Disney Parks. The outcome was a perfect family vacation with a complete experience in all 4 parks including the most difficult attractions during the most crowded days! Sometimes more than twice combining different strategies. You rock! I'm sharing your channel and videos with all the Brazilian community!

What an amazing coincidence! My family and I were also at Disney's Magic Kingdom on this exact 4th of July! We are a family of four - two adults and two kiddos aged 12 and 8. To say we had a blast would be an understatement! Between the rides, the food, and the magical ambiance, every moment felt like stepping straight into a fairytale. And this video, let me tell you, was a game-changer for us! We've been following your channel and your tips and strategies have been absolutely invaluable! Your guidance truly optimized our experience and made our day even more magical. Last, but definitely not least, the fireworks. Oh, the fireworks! There's something incredibly special about 4th of July fireworks at Magic Kingdom. They weren't just spectacular, they were downright enchanting. The light show was breathtaking, and watching the sky light up above Cinderella's Castle was a memory we will cherish forever. Thank you for your great content! You're helping families like ours make the most out of these precious moments. Can't wait to see where our next Disney adventure takes us, guided by your handy tips and tricks. Keep the magic coming! 🎆🏰🎠🎡🎢🎇

Just returned from our 2 week WDW vacation. I cannot thank you enough for your content. The Genie+ strategy, tips, tricks, slots, and gremlin lookouts made us get so much more out of our 6 park days than we would have on our own. We rode and saw everything -often more than once- without waiting longer than 30 mins for in any line during the July 4th holiday week. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

We are leaving for our first family disney trip in less than two weeks and your videos have been invaluable to us. Not just genie+ and navigating the parks but now with the heat. I’m a teacher in the north and summer is the best time for us to travel to Disney. But I was always warned of the heat. These tips were so helpful, along with all of the tips in your other videos. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I can’t wait to comment with good news again once we return back. Thank you. Thank you. 💜

Even though I took my own advice and waited a little while to leave, I should have waited even longer 😂. It was CRAZY.

We just did a week in Disney. Your videos were so helpful! I even had a cast member look at everything we did (my daughter lost her magic band) and she was super impressed! My one mistake was when I played the slots when I clicked on my modified time by the time I tapped it, my time was completely different and once clicked confirm without realizing it was a different time than I thought. It threw us off an hour at MK. So always double check before you hit confirm!

We returned home to the UK last Thursday having spent 2 weeks at Disney world and it was amazing, what made it even better was all the tips I watched from your videos beforehand. My family laughed at me everytime I won at the slot game, however I was a bit disappointed when the afternoon arrived and there were no longer any available slots for some of the rides, I wonder if this was down to the the Genie+ service. We will have to come back to do those rides/shows. Thank you Ear Scouts for helping us with our fabulous holiday

I had never waited that long before, but it seems that each time I ride, the wait time gets longer. They must be experimenting with calling more boarding groups at once, though I have no idea why that would benefit anyone.

Rob, I just returned from my family Disney trip. Thanks for all your videos, they are by far the most informative when it comes to using the Genie Plus app. After watching so many, I still found the new app required a few hour learning curve (and this coming from a person who found/abused a hack in the old Fast Pass app). Fortunately AK was our first day so it allowed for a less stressful learning curve. Anyway, I thought I would try to return a tip...really theory/hack because I was not able to prove it out because the idea hit me after the storm passed on our last theme park day. The theory is this: use the Florida afternoon storm downtime to your advantage. Most people know that if you have a lightning lane scheduled and the ride is down at the start of your window Disney changes the pass into an experience pass. This gives you the advantage to save that lighting lane for later, when the ride comes back up, or use it elsewhere (with some exceptions)...and schedule another, future, lightning lane. Well during rain the outside rides go down...this is where the theory comes in (and maybe a future video). Why not intentionally modify a lightning lane to one of these rides, at a very near future time, with the hope that the ride is down when your window hits and the selection is moved to an experience pass to be used elsewhere at your leisure? For instance, Dumbo/BarnStormer never have a line, and lightning lanes are available at all increments. If rain hits the ride is grounded. Schedule a future lightning lane for either of those and keep your fingers crossed the ride is down when your window hits...rinse and repeat until the storm passes and then use the experience passes you stacked that you can use on almost every other ride in the park.

That’s a clever idea. I’ll have to try it out next time I’m using Genie on a day with some afternoon storms. Thanks for watching! 😃

@@EarScouts it also helps when you want to ride something more than once while using the lightning lane. Remember if you have a lightning lane set up for a ride, say Jungle Cruise, make sure you use that lightning lane during its window and before you use a Disney Experience Pass on the ride (Jungle Cruise). If you use the Disney experience pass before the scheduled lightning lane it will remove your lightning lane because it counts as the one time usage toward that ride. Strange, I know, but order matters.

My wife and I love your channel Rob! Question re: the 120-min Rule. If we book a LL at 7:00am, can we book the next one at 9:00am or 2 hours after official park opening or as soon as we scan in on the first ride? Can you tell we’re still confused? Lol

It would be 2 hours after park opening OR when you scan into the ride you booked… whichever comes first. So if at 7am you booked a LL for 12:00, and park opens at 9am, then at 11am you can book another. But, if at 7am you booked a LL for 10am, then as soon as you scan in after 10am then you can book another. Hope that helps!

Does anyone have any ideas on how WDW will handle Tron during Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party? I’m curious if it will be virtual queue or just standby.

Hi Craig! My favorite parks are Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios, but I also like the Wizarding World lands at Universal. My favorite rides are Expedition Everest at WDW and Hagrid’s Motorbike at UO. Always good to hear from you. Hope you have a great week. 😀

This man is a genius.

It was much worse than normal. 75 minutes. 😩 It used to be more like 15-20.

Good call out on the CM’s! They are HOT too.

I thought you got to pick either one park or if you got the multiple park thing it was limited to two parks. You're saying if you get the multiple day it's good at all the parks that day?

Hi Debbie - yes, my understanding is that the park hopper option allows use at all 4 parks. I’ll test that out next time I use it to hop. Thanks for watching! 😃

Hello, do you know of other ways to leave the park if your hotel isn’t accessed with the monorail or boats , only a shuttle ? What if we miss the shuttle for fireworks ? Can we just grab an Uber ? Or are there taxis to flag?

@EarScouts

Жыл бұрын

Hello! You can get Uber and Lyft from the Transportation and Ticket Center at Magic Kingdom or at the designated ride share zones outside the other parks. I think you could request a taxi, but I have rarely seen them waiting around for someone to flag them so ride share is a better bet. Thanks for watching! 😃

@@EarScouts thanks ! I’m watching all your videos for tips and tricks ! They’ve been super helpful , so thank you so much. Another quick question, I noticed you prefer to grab lightening lanes with the quickest return to tap in and book another quick vs getting lightenings lanes throughout the day or every 2 hours and in between doing the least wait times rides. Which do you recommend ? Have you done both?

We go in April and October. Count ourselves lucky if it rains. Crowds and heat are for the birds.

We went on Carousel of Progress in March and there was no a/c. Ugh! Stuck in there for 20 mins with no a/c! Didn’t smell very good in there either. 😂😂😂 I’m sure it was just a fluke.

Oh no. I love Carousel of Progress, but that would be rough if it was hot and stinky. 😅

Can't use your park pass on a holiday, unless it is the highest priced one.
