You're standing in a seemingly endless line at Disneyland twiddling your thumbs as the minutes tick by. Why aren't you using those thumbs to flip through your phone? Because, at the worst moment, you lost cell service.
This exact scenario happened to me while waiting for Soarin' Over the World in Disney California Adventure (while I was trying to book my next Fastpass on Maxpass, no less!). Then I discovered a solution to my connectivity woes: Disneyland WiFi!
Both Disneyland park and Disney California Adventure offer complimentary wireless high-speed internet access in select areas. Here's how to get it!
