AP email talks about renewing early. Our AP's renew in September so I can wait until then, right?

If you renew early the expiration date remains the same. Plus you can only renew up to 30 days early and within 30 days past expiration date. Grandson’s AP expires May 5 so was within the early window. Our trip is May 7-14 and need to make those dumb park reservations.

The renewal window opens 60 days before and closes 30 days after the current passes expiration date.

Awesome. Thanks for the insight. This blind squirrel will keep fumbling around and see what nuts I find! It sounds like there's not an official place yet for me to post specific date ranges and resorts I'm looking for. I'm still trying to figure out how to best make use of the google forums spreadsheet without just cold emails/messages to a bunch of people. I have fairly specific dates and resorts in mind for this fall, but don't see a lot of dedicated reservations listed there. Thanks again Adelard and nickys! There is now! A belated welcome to MO!

Can you reassign Magic Bands to new people? I'm traveling with family who have never been to Disney before. We have a bunch of old Magic Bands that I'd like to "give" to my extended family members. We're staying offsite and Undercover Tourist is only offering etickets. If I can assign those tickets to my existing Magic Bands it would save us a trip to Guest Services to get physical tickets. Or I guess the cost of buying bands for everyone?

Sorry, no you can’t reassign them if they’ve been used. And welcome to MagicOwners! Ah, that's too bad. I'm trying to figure out the easiest way for them to enter the parks without a MagicBand. It's been so long since I did it. It will be two families with kids who have never been before. It looks like you can use the Disney app for your tickets or get a physical card from Guest Services. I'm guessing they'd prefer the app. Can the parents have all their families' etickets from Undercover Tourist linked through the Disney app? The kids do not have their own phones. And thanks! It's good to be back, so to speak. haha

It's good to be back, so to speak. haha Having been stuck in lines behind families trying to use their phones I have to think that parents can have everyone’s tickets on their phones! The parents might prefer the app but the kids will love the key to the world cards as souvenirs. And they’re free (well, free at the point of use at least 🤪). Could you visit Disney Springs the night before? That said, unless you’re trying to rope drop I don’t think the lines at Guest Services outside MK is too busy.

I think it depends how early they get to Orlando and if they wanna make the drive over there. I wouldn't but it's not really my issue. haha I guess I'll just present them with their options and let them decide. Thanks for all the help!

Help! I need an instacart tutorial for WDW groceries. We've always used garden grocer, but the prices are getting high. I'm usually very clever at shopping, but I must admit, I know nothing about instacart.

I'm usually very clever at shopping, but I must admit, I know nothing about instacart. We've used Instacart a few times. It's pretty self-explanatory. Choose the store you want them to shop at, fill your cart, choose delivery time. I'm looking at the app now. I'm using BWV's address (google your resort name and "address"). Store options are Publix, Sprouts, Target, Aldi, Costco, BJ's, Sam's, etc.
