All of a sudden, when I try to go to the official Walt Disney World (US) site, my browsers auto direct me to the UK site home page. Even if I search on Walt disney World Florida residents, click on the link (which is obviously a link to the US site) I( get dirceted to the home paeg pf the UK site.

This is now drining me mad, please can someone help :confused3

I get this too, I solve it by clicking the back button on my browser and click the link again! Also the new WDW website launched today so that might be causing the problems!

Hi Jo, yes this is exactly what I used to do. Not sure i fillowed the logic but it worked and now it doesn't :confused3

Can you give it a go to see if it still works for you?

Rob I just tried and it's being silly, won't even let me on my Mom's site just goes to UK. One thing to try is to clear your cookies, if it still is doing it tomorrow I'll e-mail for help and hopefully that will clear up your problems too. I suspect it has something to do with the new website launch though!

If you scroll to the bottom of the UK page there is a little drop down box on the left, select USA & it will take you straight there. :thumbsup2

thanks again Jo. I auto clear cookies on closing each session. I tried both Internet Explorer and Fiirefox in case it was the browser casuing the problem, but both do the same thing.

I had this problem yesterday and posted a thread and after a suggestion I managed to get on to Disney USA via the canadian page first by changing it to canada at the bottom and than changing it to USA when on the canadian site and it worked.:thumbsup2

We had the same problem yesterday. I've noticed this morning that there's a 'visit the US site' on the top left hand side now, and I've just got on :thumbsup2

None of the above working again for me today. Can use the international site links to get to every country apart from US !...redirected to UK.

Can input dates on Canadian site which does take me to US site but when using any other links within page it redirects me to UK site :confused3

This is both with Firefox and IE

same here, it is really annoying as I can't get on the AP member bit of the site.

Hi Claire, yes it is annoying to say the least. I used to enjoy planning the trips but this time it has not been so good. No May hours still, confusion over the Pirates dates, Disney cutting Fantsmic, Liberty tree, no finalised Star Wars dates, changes to ADR's and now only 90 days etc, etc

I too am having problems. I put in disney.com and get re-directed to .co.uk. I wanted a quote for a trip in dollars but this seems to be impossible now as even on the international site it switches to £s. This is a real pain.

There is now also a thread on the UK planning board reporting same problem. I cannot get in again but Wayne attached a link which is an Anonymous Proxy

this works as it basicially hides your identity so the disney web site does not know who you are
