If you could steal your favorite attractions from ANY Disney park in the world and build your own perfect Disney theme park… what would you choose? 🏰🎢🌎 In this episode of **Play It By Ears**, we…
Before we jump in, there's a few other things I wanted to talk through.
So bear with me, everyone.
First one, when we did our dining episode, we talked about strategies for booking dining reservations.
And if your favorite one is booked up or you didn't get the right timing, don't stress, don't fret, don't give up.
So this past weekend, my good friends went to Disney and I was helping them book things.
And I got them a dining reservation for the T-Rex ride, not ride, restaurant at Disney Springs and it was at 7 and they really wanted to eat closer to like 545 6 And I kept checking, checking, checking all leading up to it.
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing.
About like an hour and a half, two hours, because, you know, you have to cancel within one hour.
So like right around that two hour mark before the reservation, that's when people are like, oh, crap, I need to go cancel it before I avoid the penalty.
I was able to get them the time they wanted last minute.
So this is just my experience of, again, don't give up because it does work and you can find things last minute.
It doesn't always happen.
Like we had another one that I tried to adjust and we couldn't.
But it's just, again, an example of don't give up because you might get lucky.
Yeah.
And if you don't want to be on your phone looking for those last minute reservations, hire Kate to do it for you.
I'm free.
I'm free.
Promise.
Disney pays me, not you.
Anyway, shameless plug.
Another thing I wanted to highlight is another podcast.
Again, we love podcast supporting podcasts.
This one is a giant podcast like everyone knows.
So, you know, it's not like a little mom and pop shop like we are, but it is this great One called Acquired.
