Today I'm discussing how the 4 main dessert parties compare at Disney World to help you decide which one is best for your family (if any). We'll discuss pricing, views, food, drinks + more.

I also have quick tips to help you on Flight of Passage and to help if you have little ones who may get confused on how to enter the parks with their ticket.

These are notes from this episode. There's much more info included in the audio so be sure to listen to the episode for a better explanation.

Quick tip of the day

Listener Laurent emailed these tips:
"1. Flight of Passage was incredible! However, when my husband took my older two children, my daughter’s 3D glasses fell off as the simulation was beginning. It ruined the ride for her. Luckily, we had a rider switch pass and I took my older children back through. As I was trying to tuck my daughter’s glasses into her pigtail holders a cast member told her to just hold the glasses the whole time. I wish we had known this the first time through!

Quick tip of the day

Listener Kay emailed this tip:
"There’s nothing worse than everyone getting all excited to ride Seven Dwarfs Mine Train with a FastPass+ and then seeing disappointed faces because the ride is closed because of continued heavy rain and thunderstorms. As bad weather is more likely to occur from afternoon onwards in Florida, my tip is that if you have no time constraints around planning your FastPasses, then try to schedule any rides with outdoor elements for the early part of the day to avoid the likelihood of disruption to your touring plans. Happy faces all round!"

Quick tip of the day

Listener Hannah emailed this tip:
"During our time in Magic Kingdom we decided to stop and get a Dole Whip on our way through Adventureland. Apparently everyone else had the same idea...I’ve never seen a line at Aloha Isle with more than a couple people and there were about 20.

So we stood in line for a couple minutes and it wasn’t moving at all. So instead we got out of the line, opened the My Experience app and ordered our Dole Whip using Mobile Ordering. Approximately 30 seconds after placing the order I was able to walk right up to the window for pickup. Saved us time, and saved us standing in a line!

We did this a couple of times when we stopped spontaneously for something at a Quick Service location. I know this doesn’t work right now if you’re on a meal plan, but if you aren’t - save yourself from an unnecessary line!"
