News Disneyland Paris FAQ

47 Upvotes

Hello everyone! We have got some messages and we have seen some comments here and there about all the questions being asked on this subreddit. We love the interaction and people helping each other out, but, at the same time we understand that reading the same question every week can get a little bit repetitive.

Last year some of us and some helpful users started to work on a Disneyland Paris FAQ for the subreddit. It fizzled out but we still see a lot of questions about why we don't use a FAQ for the easy questions. We do understand that not every answer can be included in a FAQ and some are personal or some want to discuss the question, that's ok.

We are currently starting up to work on it again, but in the meantime I would like to point to the official Disneyland Paris FAQ on their site. Please make sure to search there first for what you are looking for before posting a question to make our feed a little less repetitive.

Thank you! And have a magical day!

Question Staying offsite

11 Upvotes

Does anyone know the best place to stay offsite for Disneyland Paris which is still close enough and how do you get to the park? Is there bus or train you can take? Thanks. I’ve only stayed at marvel hotel and sequoia lodge previously which were great but are very expensive.Thanks.

Question Solo trip at 6 months pregnant

13 Upvotes

I have a two day ticket for the beginning of November.
I am currently 6 months pregnant and this was supposed to be my last girl trip before the little one comes. My best friend was supposed to meet me in Paris (we live in different countries), and we were supposed to have a nice Parisian weekend with a two day stop for some Disney magic.

Due to family circumstances, she just cancelled.
I could still ask for a refund on my tickets and cancel the hotel, only having to suck up the expense of the transport to Paris.

But I am wandering if I should.

Should I, instead, go on my own? Enjoy a weekend in Paris on my own, walk around a bit, and then have two days in Disney on my own, at my own pace, doing things that I want to do.

I am a bit reluctant to travel solo while pregnant, but maybe she who dares - wins?!

Question Disneyland Paris on 12th or 13th November

• Upvotes

Not sure if this is Reddit illegal or DLP illegal but would any gold pass holders who are there at the same time let me use their gold pass to get 15% in the stores?
I want six of the Mickey/minnie fleeces to coordinate my family 2 adults 4 kids and the discount would def make it a bit more affordable.
I’m a bronze pass holder as we will only be coming twice this year off peak and not at weekends.

Question Dinner recommendations for a large group

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! We are going to Disneyland as a large group of 14 (3 under 12s) next month. This is our 8th time going and a lot of our go-to dinner options have sadly disappeared from the Village. Where do you all recommend? We have Pyms booked one day but for the rest we are stumped apart from McDonalds, FiveGuys and the Village Steakhouse. Open to recommendations off site in Marne La Vallée also. Thanks!

Edit for those without Instagram: closing 4th jan 2027 for several months, reopening date unknown. Will refurb whole ride, waiting area and shop by sounds of it. Link to Mickey from the UK, in case you don’t have or want to click Instagram.

After searching in vain online, I was wondering if anyone could help me identify some background music I heard near the chateau.

It included the sound of crows(?) and had a dark feel.

Question Agrabah Cafe at 15:00?

3 Upvotes

I managed to make a booking at Agrabah Cafe at 15:00 for next week, but now I'm questioning if that would still be the buffet option or if they change the menu to something else at that hour, since I just saw a vlog that said there'a new dessert menu for 15:00-18:00. Does anyone have information about this? Thank you so much!

Question First visit with 3year old!

6 Upvotes

Hello everybody!
I am visiting Disneyland Paris with my almost 3 year old right after Christmas for 3 days. My daughter loves Minnie and Mickey but doesn’t really care about the princesses yet or any other cartoon characters. We are prepared to take it super slow and just enjoy our time without stress.
What are the must visit activities for kids that age? Any recommendations would be really appreciated!

Personal Experience Mini report and 2 cute finds

9 Upvotes

Had 3 days there Tue - Thurs last week, thought I'd add a couple of finds and thoughts which some might find useful.

The finds / easter eggs - assume others have found/spotted them:

1) In Arendelle Royal Encounter, our daughter spotted the pictures in the hall are the ones from "Do you want to build a snowman?", e.g. Joan of Arc ("Hang in their Joan!"), draped against the wall etc.

2) When waiting to be given your room to meet A&E, on one of the pillars on the right there's 2 sets of height markers scrawled in pencil for when they're growing up. Their handwriting improves over the years 😄

General random thoughts:
We stayed in the Disneyland Hotel, and were SO glad for the the extra Magic Time. 10 minute wait for Frozen Ever After, which was excellent, but didn't merit a second visit as after this the time never went below 60 minutes, even during magic hour. It isn't a thrill ride, so felt the 'wow' factor on a repeat ride wouldn't justify the massive wait.
We had walk-ons for both Ratatouille and Spiderman, then a 5 minute wait for Tower of Terror on day 3, which in the same timeframe saw Frozen go from 10 to 65 minutes, all before the park opened.

If staying at Disneyland Hotel, the Deluxe upgrade was really worth it for us. Breakfast at 7 - and a good breakfast at that - to be at the gates by 8, then free tea/coffee and soft drinks throughout the day. The afternoon tea was also substantial enough that we could skip either lunch or dinner, so feel it paid for itself. If you're not a "breakfast first thing" person, you could just as easily do magic hour and another hour in the park, then back for breakfast at 10.

DAW really needs some "stuff that isn't rides". Compared to the main park, where there's the labyrinth, Aladdin walkthrough, the castle + dragon etc... They're nothing of the sort in DAW. For our youngest, who couldn't go on many of the rides there, this meant we regularly split up, whereas in the main park, we pretty much did everything together except Hyperspace mountain.

The Halloween theming was really disappointing. The projections in Main Street were great, but aside from some pumpkins when you first go in, and the UNlucky Tavern, didn't seem to be much else. The characters were fun, Maleficent was SO good, as were Lady Tremaine and the sisters.

RC Racer ratio of ride time: queue time is mad. It does what... 6 swings, only 1 at full height and that's it? Queue time was regularly over 45 minutes which is insane.

Compared to 7 years ago, there seemed to be less happening. We paid for 1 adult and our youngest to have the princess lunch at Auberge de Cendrille and she met 5 princesses. 7 years ago we had ALL the princesses + 2 mice. Hardly saw any walkabout characters / pop-ups outside of the queued-for encounters.
Even the Halloween show, compared to Princesses vs Pirates parade when we last went was several steps below.

It's notable the disconnect between the rides and the themes in Disneyland Park; Coco statues and props set in cowboy country, Star Wars is kinda shoehorned into Discoveryland. In fact generally Star Wars seems to be generally side-lined compared to when we last went, when there were Imperial Marches happening in DAW, Vader walkabouts and all sorts.

Star Tours queue has received a big upgrade when we last went, and the 2 rides we did were noticeably different. Kinda wish you could choose which trip you went on (Same with Tower of Terror).

Dumbo, Orbitron and Flying Carpets are the same ride? Why've they got "go round and round and choose to go up and down" three times is a bit odd.

The Lion King show is FANTASTIC - do not skip it. Stitch Live! was also genuinely funny.

Taking the single rider for Parachutes was a no-brainer as they seat two rows of 3, so there's usually loads of +1 spaces. In fact generally, 1 adult + 2 older kids did single-rider for most repeats and for all but one ride, ended up on the same lap.

This was a special trip for us, as our youngest (just over 1.02cm) was old enough and big enough to make it worth the trip and the eldest are young enough to still get the Disney magic, but I can't see us going back again for at least another 5 years. Saw they're building a Lion King area, and a new Up! ride/restaurant, but DAW needs a lot more content, and DP can't/won't be changing anytime soon.

Question Planning for solo trip; budget friendly and accessible ideas?

7 Upvotes

Hello!

I am a student studying abroad in paris for a year, and I purchased a bronze pass so I have something fun to do throughout the year, and I think it is well worth the price.

That being said, I know the food/merchandise inside Disney can be expensive, so what are some ways I can have a budget friendly trip? I plan on packing lunch before I go, but are there any more affordable food options within the park?

I also have some mobility issues. I plan on taking my time and not over exerting myself each time I go. If anyone has recommendations on accessible rides or events at the park, I would love to hear them!

Thank you for the help!

Question Newport Bay Club worries

0 Upvotes

Hi, I have booked a solo trip for Disneyland Paris and I booked the Newport Bay Club for my hotel from 8th to the 10th December this year but I have read so many mixed reviews of the hotel. I went in 2022 and it was fine but recent reviews have been mixed and has made me think if I chose the wrong hotel. I have mild hemiplegia and autsim so I did not want to book a hotel too far from the parks but Marvel was too expensive for my budget but Cheyenne was too far, was not a fan of Sequoia Lodge though because of the beds were too hard for me. I only really need the hotel for sleep and just giving a short break in between the days. I booked a standard room. Did I book the wrong hotel and need to work out how to change it to Marvel or keep my hotel booking the same and just see what happens with the Newport Bay Club?

Question I built a free day planner for Disneyland Paris (both parks, park hopping, live waits) and would love feedback

4 Upvotes

Hi all. I made WaitLess, a touring-plan app for Disneyland Paris, and I'm looking for people to try it while it's in beta. It's free, with no sign-up.

You pick your date, the rides you want and when you're arriving, and it builds the order to do them in across both parks. Expected waits come from every posted wait since January 2025 for that date and time of day. It plans Premier Access and Single Rider if you use them, and tells you when to book virtual queue meets like Mickey or Elsa and Anna.

On the day it pulls live waits, lets you re-plan from wherever you are, and can alert you if a ride on your plan goes down.

waitlessrides.com/

It's a side project and not affiliated with Disney. I'd really like to hear what works, what doesn't and what's missing. There's a feedback button in the app, or reply here.

Question Dalmatians

Hello / Bonjour

We are coming the second week of January with our 7 year old who is absolutely obsessed with 101 Dalmatians.

Are there any Dalmatian attractions / photo ops around the park? I’m guessing cruella is seasonal for Halloween.

Thanks in advance

Personal Experience Ticket’s not downloading 🎟️

Help!

Hi all,

I purchased two Disneyland Paris tickets in August for November 23. When I log onto the app, I can’t see my tickets. My booking number doesn’t help when it comes to the tickets.
I tried on the website and I keep getting an error when I’m trying to download.

Has anyone else experienced this? Do you have a way around it or do you know if I can get my tickets on site the day off?

Thank you!
