universal testing rumored controlled access to portals epic universe

I saw a post on Twitter suggesting that Universal may be testing controlled access to the park “portals,” possibly at Epic Universe. Some people seem upset about it, arguing that if you are paying full admission, you shouldn’t have to deal with restricted entry while others may...

Best time to line up and queue (Tokyo DisneySea planning)

Hello, We’re traveling from India with our two daughters (ages 9 and 4.5) and are planning a visit to DisneySea. We chose DisneySea specifically to experience attractions like Frozen and Rapunzel rather than visiting Disneyland. From what we’ve read, Disney Premier Access (DPA)...

Domestic flight without check-in, still managed to board

Sharing an experience that might help others in a similar situation. Had a domestic flight with IndiGo from Pune (PNQ) to Delhi (DEL), departing at 11:15 PM. I didn’t have any check-in baggage and planned to arrive less than an hour before departure. I attempted web check-in...

Dujjonku was literally everywhere in Korea

I missed the Dujjonku trend because I stayed back for winter session classes and couldn’t go to South Korea 😭. My friends kept sending me photos, and I was honestly pretty jealous. Now it seems like “butteok” is the new popular thing? I’m hoping to try both when I go back...

Korea made the US feel kinda behind in a lot of ways

Just got back from a couple weeks in Seoul and Busan and honestly didn’t expect it to feel this different. Public transport alone blew me away. Fast, clean, everywhere, and super easy to use. Didn’t even think about needing a car once. Also didn’t expect to eat so much from...

Disney gave her a “no-show” strike even though she was inside the park

My friend went to Disneyland, scanned in, stayed for a few hours, even bought food… then got an email the next day saying she never entered and got a strike. She tried calling and they just kept saying they have no record of her scan. Even with a receipt from inside the park,...

Paris restaurant felt like a total scam… fake reviews?

Ate at Le Bistro de Buci and honestly one of the worst meals I’ve had. Food was barely edible and service was rough, which surprised me because the ratings online are super high. Afterwards I checked reviews more closely and a lot of them looked weird. Tons of 5 stars with no...

Paid $4.5k for catering and barely got enough food to feed anyone

Booked a catering order for a 350+ person event and paid $4,500 upfront. Morning of the event, the owner suddenly says the order was “wrong” and tries to charge way more or cut the food. Manager I booked with basically disappeared. We agreed to adjust the order and keep it at...

Anyone tried the Diamant Bleu dinner cruise on the Seine?

Thinking about booking the 3 course dinner cruise with live music on Diamant Bleu next week. It is about 2 hours and 40 minutes and the reviews look decent, but I would love to hear real experiences. Was it actually worth it? How was the food and overall vibe? Did it feel...

Is Universal Studios Singapore worth it for a first international trip?

We’re planning our first ever international trip from the Philippines and looking at Universal Studios Singapore. I’ve seen mixed reviews. Some people love it, others say it’s small or not as good as other Universal parks. A lot of the negative comments seem to compare it to...

How does Disneyland handle lost kids?

Was leaving the park last night and saw something that stuck with me. A woman next to us suddenly realized she was pushing an empty stroller. You could see the panic hit instantly. I flagged down security and they escorted her away right away. They moved fast, which was...

First visit in 20 years and now I’m hooked… did I miss the “better” Disneyland?

Just went to Disneyland for the first time since I was about 12, so roughly 20 years ago. I remember it being fun as a kid, but nothing that stuck with me in a huge way. I grew up in SoCal and somehow just never made it a priority. A lot of people around me had annual passes...

Food delivered to your gate by other travelers? I don’t think I’d use this.

Interesting idea, but honestly I’d be pretty hesitant. Relying on another random traveler to grab my food and make it to my gate on time feels risky, especially when gates change, boarding starts early, or someone just decides they don’t feel like finishing the delivery. Trust...

Starting to think something’s off with Disneyland

I don’t post much, but this honestly surprised me enough to share. I’ve been a longtime Disneyland regular. Usually stay on property, five day trips, a few times a year. For me, a lot of the magic was just being there. Walking around, grabbing a drink, people watching, soaking...

HR Tahoe still a solid Cat 5 for MLK weekend

Just got back from another 3-night MLK stay at Hyatt Regency Tahoe. Still a Cat 5 and honestly still worth the 23k peak points. Cash rates were around $500 for a basic room and I’d book on points again without hesitation. I’d call it a 9/10 overall. Biggest change is the beach...

Park Hyatt Niseko lived up to the hype for us

Wrapped up a 4 night stay at Park Hyatt Niseko Hanazono in January and honestly loved it. First Park Hyatt for both of us and even though people say this one ranks lower than the big name PHs, it exceeded expectations. Booked the base king on points at 45k per night with Guest...

Post-COVID Disney crowds are out of control… what actually changed?

Now I only go once or twice a year and honestly the crowds are the main reason. I wouldn’t even mind paying $300+ for a day if it didn’t feel shoulder to shoulder nonstop. I keep hearing people say lower prices make it worse, but tickets were cheaper pre-Covid and this wasn’t...

Best Airplane Meal I’ve Ever Had and it was American’s…

Y’all! I just begrudgingly flew American (to use the last of some miles I had with them on a route that would have required a connecting flight with United) AND THE FOOD SLAPS. I enjoyed every item. My salads, the delicious and warm sourdough bread, the main course, the SORBET...

British Airways served me sesame despite my allergy and then offered £50

Still pretty shaken writing this. On May 2, 2025 I was flying BA007 from Heathrow to Tokyo. 14-hour flight. I have a severe sesame allergy, the anaphylaxis kind. I told multiple cabin crew before meal service. When the food came, I checked again. They assured me it was safe. The...

SQ business class food on ICN–SGP felt very premade

Flew Singapore Airlines business class from Seoul to Singapore and got the same main dish as on the inbound to Korea. Honestly, it tasted very premade. I know airline food isn’t fresh, but this was one of those meals you can instantly tell was microwaved. That said, if you don’t...

Disney just pulled the 2 day tickets from Costco. Anyone know what happened?

I went to buy the 2 day Disneyland tickets on Costco’s site and the page was suddenly gone. Drove to my local Costco and they told me Disney ordered all tickets to be pulled as of last night (1/4). I called another Costco to double check and got the same answer. I’m confused...
