Dining quick tips

* Purchase snacks ahead of time and group them in Ziploc bags for each day of your trip. Each night, put a new bag into your park bag. -Kacie from Indiana

* Split Quick Service meals so you won't be lethargic after meals, to allow yourself a break in the air conditioning, and to give yourself a chance to try more restaurants. -Lynsey from Tennessee

* Use snack credits for Starbucks drinks. Adding extra syrups and espresso shots is included and can make a snack credit worth $8-9. -Walker from Alabama

* Bring rubber bands or Ziplocs to store/close unfinished bags of snacks. -Selena from Ohio

* Bring cereal supplies from home and grab a milk from the food court or gift shop for a quick breakfast. You might also pack sandwich thins and sandwich toppings for an inexpensive meal. -Colleen from Illinois

* Make separate dining reservations if you can't find one for your entire group. -Tim from Pennsylvania

* Call The Boathouse directly (407-939-2628) if you're having trouble finding reservations in the Disney Dining system or on OpenTable. -Tarryn

* If you need to cancel a dining reservation, you can reschedule it for 2 days later so you can cancel it without a penalty. -Emily

* Consider going to Contempo Cafe at the Contemporary Resort on your Magic Kingdom day for good food and atmosphere that's only a monorail stop away. -Nathan

Touring quick tips

* When making bonus FastPass+ reservations, book whatever is available and then you can go into your My Disney Experience app to modify it later. -Kelly from Ohio

* The third row of Soarin' does not have extra motion like the first two rows, making it a good option for people prone to motion sickness. -Brittany

* Don't be nervous when meeting characters. Just relax and have fun. -Dustin, The Character Queen

Quick tips for families with young children

* Make sure to identify your stroller in a unique way since so many strollers look the same. Also, Hollywood and Vine Fantasmic Dinner Package lunch allows young kids to interact with some of their favorite characters, eat lunch, and get good Fantasmic seating. -Rachel

* Always leave mid-day from around 1-5 to give everyone a break and be sure not to overdue it on activities like swimming. -Casey from DLRPrepSchool.com

* Since there are two stroller-rental locations at Epcot, you could use one of them mid-day after your child gets tired of walking. -Stephanie from North Carolina

* Baby wearing infants during your trip can be convenient, but consider alternating between carriers, using moleskin, applying anti-chafing gel, sharing baby wearing duties with somebody else, taking advantage of your resort's hot tub, using Bengay for sore muscles, and make sure you're physically prepared.
