If you’ve visited even just a few Disney fan sites you’ve probably run into our little secret language.
We speak in code.
Not because membership is restricted. Not because we’re secret agents working under cloak of internet for the Disney organization.
We speak in code because it’s so much easier than spelling it out all of the time.
“I recommend you ride the TTA while you wait for your BTMR FP and then head over to CRT for your ADR.”
Now here, I’m assuming most people visiting me have limited knowledge of Walt Disney World and are coming here to learn. That’s why I rarely speak in code.
But elsewhere? Especially message boards? You’re going to need a little cheat sheet.
Below I’ve constructed the most common abbreviations you’ll find on other Disney sites and message boards. I’m sharing it with you now. (And I don’t even have to kill you first!)
Pin it. Bookmark it. Print in out and memorize it.
Whatever helps you navigate this amazing and magical World of Disney.
