I'm not even going to Disney any time soon but hearing AJ talk about it makes for a very relaxing podcast-like video for me!
that’s why i watch too! im not even old enough to plan a DW trip but i love listening to AJ while i work and clean ☺️❤️
@@ainsleyelizabeth9678 I am listening while I clean right now! Lol Planning a first time trip for next year and this channel is so helpful :)
I’ve never been and probably never will go, but I love watching Disney land/world videos for some reason 😅

AJ, it’d be so tight if you did a history of WDW restaurants! Which ones are OGs? Which ones don’t exist anymore? When in the timeline did Disney food start to evolve from what we know as standard theme park fare?
That’s a great idea☺️
Depends on what you consider “OG?” Are we talking opening day restaurants? Because a lot of places that people have made a tradition going every year for generations have opened years later.
Great idea
I’m missing the pizza planet!!
@@iiAngelic I haven’t eaten there in 20 years!!! ...because it was always closed for dinner. They rethemed it to muppets, and big surprise, still closed.
I think I speak for everyone when I say thank you for all this work you do for our benefit
...my wife and I took our honeymoon in Epcot in 1976 back in the "olden times".
That was considered somewhat of non-traditional place for one to go to celebrate one's wedding back then, but I had been to Disney World as a high school band trip chaperone for a band competition and was aware
It turned out to be "perfection"!
The schools and families hadn't gone on summer vacation yet so Epcot was very uncrowded.
We drove down from Wisconsin in my wife's brand-new Honda Prelude sports car that had a power sunroof and was quite the exotic car at the time. It was still in "like new" condition.
The flowers and foliage were lush in Epcot.
We strolled around at our leisure, ate in luxurious restaurants, everything at a relaxed pace with no waiting and fussy kids.
We really savored and appreciated this opportunity and experience.
For our last day and night we stayed in a concierge level top floor suite with all the trimmings...complimentary newspaper, bathrobes, sumptuous buffet breakfast, champagne and all the ecoutremonts.
One could see all the surrounding resort grounds which included a large pond and sand beaches including large sun umbrellas from our top floor views.
It was worth it!
AJ giving us an almost hour long tip video like a queen! Thank you!
👑
Yesssss thank you! Because I watch you video my parents have classified me as the Disney expert lol… your videos always come in handy to prepare for our trip to Disney :3. You’re the best!
I'd like to know how many days you suggest booking if you do want to "do it all" and you'll probably only take your family there once.
I am going to Disney World this December and it is really a dream since I come from a third world country and never in my life would think it would actually happen. So glad I found your channel. All of your tips are extremely helpful and I really love your voice!
Instead of pvc ponchos, try breathable rain gear. It will keep you cooler. They hold up to all day rains as long as they don't get ripped.
I love these longer videos! Best background to my workday there is!
This video was so helpful. The discount Disney gift card is such a money saver. Thank you
honestly i feel the best day at Disney is not plan at all (except for park tickets and passes and hotel reservations) going into the park with no agenda is pretty awesome
AJ, calling yourself a Disney World Pro is the understatement of the millennium.
My first time riding resistance, we got right in front of beck, got Interrogated by a empire officer, and got the front seat in our car. We also got the Kyle scene. Will still be my most memorable ride at Disney. Bought the guide too. Thank you so much for the hard work aj and crew. I have a solo 7 day trip to disney. These videos and guides are helping me prep big time. You guys rock!
On the lunches outside of magic kingdom, My husband and I went to P&Js at fort wilderness, took the boat and enjoyed some cheaper delicious lunch
A ONE hour DFB video? YESSSS!
Tip 51 shipping everything home. I absolutely did this when I was there around Christmas of 19. It helped so much, I even shipped to other family members around the US.
leaving tomorrow so excited, your videos have been a big help and my parents have named me the disney expert, i have a full folder of disney notes
The shoes tip is super important! I would also add, bring quality socks and at least one pair of shoes you can wear socks with. Sandals are fun, but sometimes you just need to be dry. I ended up having to go to Disney Springs and buy new sneakers my last trip. It totally saved my vacation, though.
Do you think compression socks would work? I’ve got a bunch and was thinking of packing them for my trip next year
I love these tips. I have used a few of them. Bring my own alarm clock now , shipping stuff home instead of bringing it back and trying to fit it in the suitcase ( Godsend) , and being aware of travel time in Disney. I usually rent a car and use it for my entire time in Disney. I find it just easier to be able to control my transportation. Love the vlog. Jump around.
I won’t be going back to Disney anytime soon but these videos give me pure joy, I absolutely love Disney some of my happiest memories are there
I’ve been checking for reservations almost every day for the past 30 days and one thing I’ve noticed is that every single time I check to see if the place I want is available just 24 hours later or day of, it is. Like you can literally go to Disney world with no restaurant reservations and still eat wherever you want if you do the 24 hour or day of trick. I’m convinced of it.
Beaches and Cream. Ohana-
We got Olga’s this way!
One trip I went we booked be our guest like day of lol
I got Cinderella’s Royal Table that way. Waited until midnight and got an ADR as well. So we were in the park early.
Me and my girlfriend are going in August and we got every dinning reservation and our savis workshop reservation all thanks to your videos! We can’t wait!
I’ll be there too and I got everything I wanted!!!! Even Olgas!!! Thanks AJ
I like it when you talk about characters meet and greets
Fantastic video as always! For me, I've always been able to order the kids menu at sit down restaurants because I'm always upfront that the heat winds up giving me heat exhaustion and I can't eat large amounts without getting sick. So if you have a health reason for needing a kids size meal, they're very accommodating
@Tiger Lily it’s not debasing, it’s being honest so it doesn’t waste food, and doesn’t put the cast member in a position of having to enforce a policy
I remember when I was on the cruise at least they said your age doesn't really matter when it comes to ordering different dishes, with the exception of alcohol obviously. Kids can order from the adult menu, adults can order from the kids menu, etc
For other cheaper merch, find a Target near the parks - I found a pair of Minnie Ears at the park for $30, and Target had the same pair for only $10! They also had some cute shirts, home items, and toys - all right near the checkout lanes.
Excellent video and you answered so many questions I have about our upcoming Christmas week trip there. And for the record, I think you're pretty funny. You make me laugh a lot!
I’ve never been to Disney but I’ve been following your page for a while now and already knew all of these!
I think if I got to meet AJ in DisneyWorld it would be the same excitement as a character encounter. Love these tips!
Thanks so much for all your tips and tricks! ❤️❤️
My fiance and I are having our honeymoon at Disney and these videos help sOOOOOO much! ❤️
Thanks to these vids by AJ, you will be a Disney pro and you 2 will have a wonderful trip!! Make sure to get the fun just married pins to proudly wear and you may end up with free stuff or free upgrades, when cast members see them! Congratulations to you and your fiancee, I wish you both a lifetime of happiness!
So am I!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We’ll be there next month. 10 days for my honeymoon 💞 congrats to you and yours also
Get your free honeymoon button at your hotel or at guest services. The bride and groom ears will get you lots of congratulations, and possibly some extra Disney magic. When on our honeymoon, we got stopped by a line attendant at Haunted Mansion. He talked to us for maybe 2 minutes, said sorry for delaying us and gave us a Cast Member paper Fast Pass to use on anything.
Hurray!! A longer length video!!
Thank you for making me a Disney Knowledge Queen!
Love you and your hardworking team!!!
Thanks for the great tips! This was very useful!
I love your channel for tips and tricks but also for the micro doses of Disney World that help my day improve
You are such a huge help! You are an expert! Thanks for all the important info!
You have been amazing with your info i cant plan this trip without u i will definitely be buying your guide book
Planning a trip to Disney World next year. Thanks for the info. It’s going to be very useful.
Your videos are awesome and your voice is great and super explicit
This was incredibly helpful!
2:30 yesss please please please i beg you keep checking. our disney vacation in august got canceled due to miss communication. we were so bummed. but each day we checked park an hotel reservation to see if any was available. an surprise there was we now get to go to disney in about two weeks. so excited just dont give up.
What better way to end the summer by going to Disney a week before starting school!! Woohoo! Thx for the tips AJ
Fantastic informative video...well done DFB 👍
Flying in on Sunday I am super excited!
Wow - ordering off the kids menu is such a great tip!
I need a whole video on those downtime places. Please, please, please 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great tips again 👍 I picked up a few again 😀. Best Disney Vlog on CZcams 🌐
The next month of mine will be just watching your channel. I must be doing great for the ad revenue
Wow AJ, thank you so much for this! You did a great job!
Hey AJ! I was wondering if you could make a list of rides at Disney World you can ride when it’s raining 🌧 thanks for the tips!
Just watching your videos gets me in the Disney mood even if I’m not going in 2 years
enjoy when you go!
Me too im not going till 28 or 27 days
This was my favorite Dfb video ever
Did not know about the baby care centers! Thanks for the tip!
I have never been to Disney and prob won’t be able to go anytime soon unfortunately but these videos are my asmr! AJ is so genuine and charming. An ice cream place where I live sells dole whip dessert and I wouldn’t have known about this amazing treat had I not watched these videos!
Going next year again. Good info AJ lad
If you want to avoid getting blisters on your feet, consider wearing socks made of merino wool. I do a lot of hiking and since I started wearing merino wool socks, I haven’t had a single blister.
Ooh AJ what is this amazing rain jacket you're talking about?? Going in September and would love to know!! Amazing video as always!
Can you link us to the raincoat you have that packs up super small? The one you said you have sounds really cool!
AJ, as always. Thank you.
My husband and I love your videos. We want to take our son when he is about 6/7. He is only 11months haha but we are already excited!
Thank you, A.J. 😀.
amazing tips! thank you, as always, for your research and insight. 😃
I am going in August and these videos helped a lot with planning:)
I am very excited to go :)))))
I love disney!
Your videos are so helpful! I think a great video idea would be the best instagram photo spots in Disney World! I like taking pics and this would be super helpful!
I got this idea from a tiktok btw!
awesome !!! info !!!
My two favorite tips:
-Ask a Cast Member when you wonder something or need help like moving scheduele or planned event.
-Have a printed hard copy of youre itienery. Even if you can find everything you need on the ap you might have need of a hard copy or even find it easier to find info on those. But if the Wi Fi goes down or youre battery runs out during a long day you might thank youreself to have a hard copy of everything in paper. When I was in WDW I had my scheduele printed out before I go and took everydays page/s with me. In that way I could always look at the paper for refreshing my brain. Johan.
going at the end of this month! so excited
See ya there!
@@saysHotdogs are you going
See ya there
@@AndreaAlvarez-ix3fs yes!
Same! July 30!
Get the guide books, you won’t be sorry. Worth every penny.
Never been this early! Thanks for the tips.
Yes I love the longer tip videos 😁
FYI for footwear, crocs carries “croc material” running shoes. Great for the rain!
I’m going this weeekend!!
Room wise, even once they have assigned your room if it is not what you want, call and ask nicely to be moved. I was assigned 4th floor after asking for ground, and though it took an hour or so, got reassigned to ground floor.
Love all your videos! AJ, you are awesome! But when are we going to see you!
She intentionally doesn't show her face so that she can still go incognito. She doesn't want special treatment so she can give honest reviews🤷♀️
We are heading down Nov. 5-12 and we booked at swan and dolphin for part of the time. I wonder when hotel benefits come back! That’s the main reason to get a Disney hotel or partner hotel.
Everyone is going to start going towards Splash first….dang it! Now the vets have to start going towards Tomorrowland 😝
That's exactly what I said!
I need to go to Disney world... asap I was there in 2015... probably the best time of my life
Thank you for all your hard work to make all of our trips magical. Any chance you could help me locate the packable rain jacket/poncho you mentioned you use? Thank you 😊
I'm taking my kids on the 7th 💃🏿💃🏿💃🏿 THANKS LOVE YOUR TIPS 💐
55 is key, even if you're feeling tired sometimes a Gatorade or whatever will help more than a coffee.
i’ve been bringing your videos for my trip next month i’m so excited!!
You mean binging
@@Savvy-jj6mm yeah that’s what i meant lol whoops
I’ll be there next month too!!!!! My first time planning for myself and my wifes first time in general. Our year overdue honeymoon!!!!
Loving these videos they make our families day, we watch them in the morning to start us of right. We are planning to visit Disneyland paris next year, will some of these tips also apply for that park?
AJ Forget the night light and just leave one of the bathroom lights on (preferably the dimmest one) and then leave the bathroom door open just a little bit. PRESTO!!! Instant night light
Any word on the new fastpass with extra fees attached?
The most fun my mom and I had with my mom in Disney world is going into the shops
Love this podcast. Just a correction not all travel agents are free. I booked with Glass Slipper in 2019 and it was but this year they are charging 300 dollars.
Road to 1,000,000!!!
Also BIG tip if you’re staying at an offsite hotel with Disney benefits….it can take up to 72 hours for your reservation to link to your My Disney Experience. I am literally missing out on all the reservations I wanted to book 60 days in advance because of this.
i think the dinning reservations might have changed now. I just booked Wine Bar George for September 28th
Only really click on this bc thumbnail was my girl loved me some tiana. My favorite and best princess of all times..
Boarding passes, virtual queues, apps, booking things months in advance it seems like Disney is so inaccessible these days. It feels like people need reservations on reservations to even ride rides or eat at a restaurant now. What happened to just waiting in line for a ride? I used to go to Disney every month as a Florida resident but haven't been in at least 10 years and now I am so unsure if it is worth it at all
I love the tip about leaving the park for lunch! Can I make an ADR for a different park than my Park pass is for that day? For example, say I'm in AK on a certain day, but want to eat at Be Our Guest.
hi i absolutely love your videos!!!
Please do a video For international travellers:)
Great idea. I am from the UK 🇬🇧
You guys need to make another one because genie plus
Yeah I remember them helping me out with my corn allergy
We are driving to disney right now and I am so excited to to another DFB video to watch in the car!
Have fun! 😁
Have fun and im going on august 6 for 1 week and 2 days and going to blizzard beach water park
Hi AJ, thank you for the awesome info. Will the travel agent help me book the boo bash tickets even if I’m not booking to stay at Disney?
By some miracle every time I go to Hollywood Studios I’m able to get a spot for Rise of the Resistance without fail. Your tips really help!
What do you do?
@@wissiemd well I always try to be up early for the 7 am slot and constantly refresh. If by some chance I don’t get it I try again at 2. Maybe it’s just my luck but I’ve always gotten it. I am an annual passholder so I go to Disney quite often. It could possibly be because I go more often I have a higher chance of riding it. Sorry if I can’t be more helpful.
Superfundiferus sledgehammered that like button stay safe awesome and blessed
Tip number 13 couldn’t be truer! My family and I had reservations for Whispering Canyon Café at the Wilderness Lodge, and we were staying at Pop century. We knew it was going to be a bit of a treck to get there, so we left about an hour before our reservation, hopped on a bus to Magic Kingdom, and then got in line to take a boat over to the wilderness Lodge. We weren’t counting on the boats being late, and we were kept waiting for over a half hour. They never did tell us the real reason why. Anyway, we finally got to the wilderness Lodge and we’re about 10 to 15 minutes late for our reservation. I was so nervous that they were going to turn us away, but they couldn’t have been nicer. What I didn’t know what the time is that whatever bracket of meal times you’re in, i.e. breakfast time, lunchtime, dinner time, as long as you’re within that timeframe, they should be able to accommodate you and still seat you.
