Is it just me? I just like to play these videos to listen to AJ’s voice while I’m working. 😂

The best advice anyone can ever give to anyone going is be nice and polite to all the Cast Members. The abuse thats always been there had only gotten worse since WDW reopen. If you don’t like the way things are now, then don’t go. Be nice to us, and you never know what extra magic may come your way.

I’ve been binge watching all WDW videos I can! A little shy of 400 days until our trip, and I’m super excited! Thanks for being such an informative channel! 💜 The DFB team is rad!

Ok seriously I don't know what I would have done without AJ and the team at DFB! I was able to crush our Disney vacation and it was all because of these guides! The annual pass holders in my group made fun of me because I must have said no I'm doing it this way because AJ suggests...about a million times! They laughed that I was acting like AJ was a personal acquaintance but by the end of the day in Magic Kingdom they were all praising me and AJ lol! Thank god for the DFB team!!!

While doing a split stay we asked the first hotel if we could stay for an extra 2 hours so our kids could nap while we waited for our other room to be ready and they happily obliged even though we didn't think it was a chance so it never hurts to ask it probably depends on how busy they are but they were pretty busy when we were there

Creepiest magic band extra was seeing my first name on a gravestone in Haunted Mansion! (I don't think they do that any more).

Thanks for the mention of the First Pitch at Casey's Corner, it brought back great memories. I had seen this several times over the years and it was always fun to see happen. One year my wife and I arrived at MK and had skipped breakfast to get there quicker. Eventually we had to eat and, being big fans of hot dogs, we decided it was Casey's for "breakfast". We got there and they weren't open yet and there was not one waiting. We decided we would wait and a few minutes later someone came out and asked us if we would like to help open the store. Of course we agreed. Just before open the manager came out and prepped us on what we would be doing and we had a great time throwing that "first pitch". I have been going to MK since the first year it was opened and this is actually one of my top 10 memories. Did I mention I was in my 40's when this happened? As you said, it's not just the kids that get to throw the pitch.

We prefer the resorts with the internal bus stops. The convience of walking out of your room and right to the bus is worth the wait. Which is usually posted on MDE or at the bus stop. Saratoga Springs, Old Key west and Coronado Springs are aces

Thank you so much dfb guide for all these amazing tips, treats advise and so much more that you share with us. I have said it before and I will say it again A/J's voice is so awesome and keeps you pulled in and interested. I love your videos and for real I bought a guide 3 years ago and it is super detailed and epic. Can't wait for my next trip and guide. Thanks guys, your awesome!💖👏🏾

One other reason the wait times may be inaccurate it to help control traffic flow of the park. They may increase the wait times of one area to move the crowds to another.

LOVE that info about the Chewy hack on Smugglers Run! Def noted & will be trying it.

She’s become an official Disney voice to me. I don’t get to go to parks that often and she makes me feel like I’m at Disney world.

Wow! What a jam-packed video! Excellent job DFB team! Enjoy these super useful videos, especially since our vacation is about 125 days out! We are so excited to be returning to Walt Disney World once again!

I didn't realized how long this was until it ended LOL! Thank you for putting together such a useful video!

I’m at WDW now and we are in a nearby rental house. The individual attraction selections for rise and Remy have all been filled before we even got the chance to buy at park open! We ended up doing standby for rise and made it into the virtual queue for Remy

These advices help me plan my disney world vacation thank you dfb

Thank you for making videos. Honestly, it has given me a real perspective on why I don't think I'll go to any Disney park with high expectations again. :( I feel like they have "gamed" it so much that a mere mortal (Me!) will never be able to just stand in line, chat with friends, enjoy the ride and then pick the next one. The price of a ticket is almost cost prohibitive to most people who really need a little Disney Magic in their lives. Adding on special fees to get in line.... not so good IMHO. Longing for the days of buy a pass and enjoy your day(s) at the parks. We'll see if the opportunity arises if I feel differently... but for now. No plans. :9(

Ugh this job sounds so overwhelming, I know you all need the help, where do I sign up? 😅

I gotta say when my name popped up on a poster while waiting in line for Rockin Rollercoaster I was thoroughly confused and scared at the same time. Found out when I got home it was the magic band lol

The secrets that we learn from AJ and the rest of the DFB crew really do match their catch phrase at the beginning of every single vlog...Let's WIN Disney World!

10 more days!!!! Thank you DFB for the amazing tips to make this the best birthday for my daughter

such a great informative video, thanks DFB!

Thanks for all the tips AJ!

Oh I love these videos!! I feel so guilty because I discreetly turned down the volume for the Midway Mania tips so maybe I can actually win against my son next time we go!!! 🤣

One of the best videos! Thanks!

AJ your videos are so insightful! This was a long one for sure, but it was full of so many amazing nuggets that I will definitely put to use when I go next month 😀

Thanks for these awesome tips 💕

I love your videos and tips AJ - thanks. I an a long time disney fan but I now have some health problems , but don’t want to miss all the fun with my family and grand babies. I would love some tips for navigating the parks and rides for people with mobility problems. I need a scooter and have problems with balance so getting on and off rides can be difficult. I can use my cane to walk to rides but have trouble if the ride doesn’t stop for loading. Hope this is possible 😘

We had such a wonderful speaking voice we really should pursue something professionally. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I have an upcoming trip in a couple months and this will be very helpful information

17:14 Is that Launchpad McQuack?!

Finally will be back this year after a 2 year hiatus can not wait 30 days and counting. Definitely will use Genie+ I always go to the parks alone

I don't think I should have watched this.. I am still a Magic Key holder at Disneyland for this year, and we don't have any plans for WDW, but dang this video has made me miss WDW sooooo much! The last time we were there was back in 2019 and we had the absolute best time since the weather was awesome for the whole week, low humidity and the Magical Express was still running. :) Thank you AJ for an awesome video with some great tips! :)

Great blog!!

For KiteTails, the AP seating isn't available now. It was only a temporary thing that they were trying out. I love the show, so seeing you give it a shout out is heart warming!

Omg Monday I hit Disney so excited

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THIS INFO IT WILL HELP US ALOT WHEN WE GO IN MAY OF THIS YEAR :)

I’ve never eaten at Planet Hollywood but I LOVED it in there!!! It was my first exposure to an actual piece of the Wizard of Oz 1939 film and I just… I broke down and cried from feeling overwhelmed on seeing Dorothy’s dress actually right there in front of me. It’s been one of my favorite dresses since I was a little girl!!

So I did this in December, when me, my boyfriend and his son went to Disney...we had purchased the Disney genie plus for the day at animal kingdom and we decided to utilize the rider swap for Everest, he was the second rider and they put it on his magic band as a lightning lane pass...I will say though, as a word of caution, if you have a pass for later that day (we had a lightning lane reservation for Navi river journey) it will cancel that pass for later, however the cast members were very nice at Navi's and helped us get on through the lightning lane

This was fantastic. I cannot wait visit Disney parks

Do you guys have a tier list of most popular/prioritized lines? It’d be great to know if there’s two high hitters I’d like to book to know which one would be more likely to book up the fastest.

Love your channel

My name was at the end of our It's a Small World ride and I totally just thought it was a coincidence! So cool!

I will watch these videos until we leave for our next Disney trip.They are completely addictive.

Can't wait to go in Oct.

If someone chooses a ride share option like Lyft from their Disney hotel, where will it drop them off at the park? For example, MK. Will it go to TCC or main front entrance? I ask this bc I’m wondering if that Disney Hotel gower will be able to still utilize the early magic house if they use a Minnie Lyft.

i live in england and ive been to disney florida once in 2019 and i dont plan on going back again for a few years i dont even know why i watch ur vids but i rlly like them :))

After years of watching these videos and thinking A.J. was mispronouncing Les Halles, I finally looked it up and learned about the 'aspirated h". So double thanks for this one, A.J. :D

I so enjoy that you get to go to Disney every day & eat all that great food…I wish I could do that 😊

that good neighbor hotel transport is so true. Their transport sucked in times and locations. I ended up ubering way more than expected.

I’m curious to find a detailed strategy for someone planning to maximize their genie plus, Extended hours etc abilities

I always like to ask for a non-adjoining room for safety and less noise. The front desk at POFQ has always helped me. I go in January so maybe it's easier that time of year.

Hi!! I love your videos they are so helpful when i am planning a Disney vacation. You should put timestamps on your videos!!😁

“It’s just like how fastpass worked with rider swap. You both have to have a fast pass in order to rider swap and use the fastpass lane.” When did they start this? We brought our two year old in 2015, and they gave us one fastpass. The idea was that one of us would wait in standby, then when we were done with riding, the other person could jump in the fastpass line since theoretically, they would have waited in the standby away. Once upon a time, you could ride then swap right in front of the literal ride. Like, you waited at the exit, and swapped riders there. No additional line waiting. But I guess once enough people started doing this, maybe it got too problematic.

If you already all have genie plus, using rider swap seems a bit superfluous. It may be worth explaining that the kiddo(s) who can ride can go twice (Once with each parent).

We are only 15 days away from our trip Thank you for ou r information

I'm going to Disney in 20 days and it has been 10 years since I last went, I'm so excited! But I'm really nervous for Omnicron, I'm a foreigner going to the US and I'm just scared that one of these days Disney closes):

Yup I did the shipping for my beauty and beast waterglobe years ago.. Still have it, they really packed it good better than get broken stuff because of the airlines throwing your bags around. Found this the hard way with my bear ornament from Universal they crushed it.

If you qualify for a DAS pass can you have that and a Lightning Lane at the same time?

Where is the cheese board from at 23:39? Because that looks delicious 😋

If you book an Uber or Lyft, do the drop you off at the park entrance or farther away like the Good Neighbor transportation services?

Do DVC rentals get deluxe resort perks like extended park hours? Thanks

SO, if you do a security check before getting on the monorail at Poly, do you ALSO do another security check to get into MK?? Or, bypass that somehow?

Another thing is There’s tons of Disney gift shops around Orlando that sell the same exact thing just cheaper

I loved the watermelon dole whip

Bread is so good

I’m going to Disney world in may. Besides magic kingdom, which other Disney park will a 3 year old and 6 year old enjoy?

Love the DFB team! But, I’m not sure when you all are going to animal kingdom, but as a regular Disney attendee myself & AP holder, I’ve rarely seen Everest at Animal Kingdom with a less then 30 min wait. In fact most times I’ve gone, it’s easily a 45-60 min wait. In my experience most my visits. Not all of them. And I go during low seasonal times. But I would agree single rider line will be the best bet if you want a much shorter wait.

Which rooms in which resorts have external villas or which are better for not hearing children stomping at all hours of the day? I feel even the Grand Floridian has thin walls. Is the Swan and Dolphin the way to go?

We went to Kite Tails and asked where the pass holder seating was and they told us that it was just something the were doing for a short time and now it's up. Maybe the cast member just didn't know but passing it along.

Hello! Me and my dad, grandma and my cousins are going to Disney world hopefully at the end of this year we are from Australia I love watching your videos bye!

Im going to Disney World in about 2 and a half weeks does anyone know where I could find the slinky headband at 25:57

Everyday?!? 5 year old AJ: mom I’m going to grow up and go to Disney everyday. AJs mom: honey that’s not a job. Aj: 😏

Frozen ride may open when Epcot does. At least it used to.

87 days left til our trip and I watch this at night so I’m ahead of the game

To clarify, can you buy a Fancy Ride (TM) without having to buy all of Genie+? So, if I want to ride RotR, do I need to spend the $15 for Genie+ to access purchasing options for the Fancy Rides, or can I just book RotR?

I have not been to Disney since 1991 (yes, since 1991 back when Hollywood Studios was MGM and Animal Kingdom did not exist). I have since developed back issues. I assume it is not recommended to ride any of the roller coasters or Tower of Terror with an arthritic sciatic nerve? Thanks for all of your tips. Heading to Disney soon....

I upgrade our tickets to park hopper in park on my phone in Oct '21?? you dont have to go to guest services

Does everyone in your group need to get the Genie Plus or can part of the group?

What is that donut drink I’m going Disney soon and i need

Can you make a video of navigating the parks as a single parent? :)

I would give almost anything to go to Disney World everyday. I’m super Jelly. Love to vids AJ and team

How does rider swap work?

Do you NEED the genie plus for children profiles too?

ok then my question is if you go every day who pays for you to get in the parks

From my own research I think genie plus is more beneficial in mk , hs

Hollywood studios was best for genie plus for me!

Heads up, I wrecked my arm on Toy Story Mania. Did not even know that was possible but now I have chronic tendon issues where I was fine before. So be careful!

Can you ship purchases internationally? We are coming from the UK in August

A friend of mine works at Caribbean Beach. If you see someone working at the front desk using an electric scooter, say "Hi". He prefers the the name "Ecto" over the name on his nametag

I love you do

Those snack hacks! Diabetes go BRRR! 😆🍩🥓🍨

Question about rider swap with a genie+ pass (lightening lane): after the first rider goes through lightening lane and completes the ride, does the 2nd rider get to skip the lightening lane and go to the front somehow? That’s the only way I can see rider swap being a thing when both people have the lightening lane already.

It’s a smaller posters at the end I saw my name lol

Question: for people who hop on at the end of the night to a MK attraction, don’t you need to ride the boat or monorail back to the TTC? How does that work?

Though we live in the northeast, my family and I have been to WDW well over 50 times and I still find your site and videos to be extremely valuable! There are sooo many changes since not having been there in past 3 years. Thank you for these updates!!!

Noooo I loved showing off the chewie mode to my family and friends now it’s not so secret 😭😭

My family of five is planning a trip to Disney World the last week of July. What kind of crowd can we expect? Is this a really busy time?

All right I'm going to be totally honest here I used to love riding roller coasters all the time when I was a kid, but unfortunately I have been banned from riding roller coasters due to my disability progression getting worse see I was born with hydrocephalus and LMC as well as multiple sclerosis and I have a shunt in the right side of my neck that's Teflon my first two shunts were plastic I wasn't even supposed to get the Teflon shot until I was 16 years old but when my shunt broke at 7 years old when I had the second plastic one they went ahead and went with a Teflon one anyway which cause if you problems like sticking out of my neck and making it extremely obvious until of course I got older. But that being said even though Teflon is flexible, my doctor had instructed me that I can no longer ride roller coasters or go on anything with extreme heights to the point where you could fall off so basically she told me to stick with ground and River rides are okay as long as I got someone next to me that can help me control my balance cuz the waves can be pretty rapid if you know what I mean. not being said I did really used to enjoy roller coasters so it does disappoint me that I can't go on roller coasters anymore but on the other hand I see why it's no longer a good idea and I'm actually okay with it for a while I wasn't all right with it but acceptance is just a path that needed to be taken and even though my tread down the acceptance path was slow, my rational mind helped me get through the acceptance path much faster and helped me understand why it had to be that way so as much as I would love to, I have fully accepted that I no longer can go on high rides or roller coasters and I'm okay with that it's not an easy thing to accept but I'm okay with that :-)

♥️♥️♥️

Not sure why of all the times I've been to Disney World Magic Kingdom as a kids that I've never been on Jungle Cruise
