Hi!
I have spent all weekend reading trip reports since booking out DLP trip Friday, and have built up loads of questions which I'm sure have been asked a million times before! If anyone can help with any I would be very grateful! :)
- Is there a luggage limit on Eurostar? Do cases stay with you or go in a separate carriage?
- Do Disney collect your cases when you arrive if you are staying on-site, like Magic Express in Florida? Also are there coaches to take you to the hotel, or is it walkable?
- Is there a hairdryer in hotel Chenenne rooms?
- I am very confused by half-board meal vouchers. If I buy them, can you use them anywhere?
- Breakfast in hotel – can you go down anytime – we will want to be as early as possible
- Do one of the parks have Extra Magic Hours each day?
- Is there anything like Philharmagic in any of the parks?
- I have been looking at the three hour "Paris by Night" tour on Disney's webside, as DH has never been there - has anyone done it, and do you get chance to get off the coach for a couple of photo's?
- Are there shops at Disney Village- I’m sure there must be but I can’t find any on Disney’s website! I need a World of Disney!!!!:confused3
Thanks so much!!:goodvibes

can only answer a few...
breakfest... you get a time slot card, but i asked for earliest when i checked in and got them, so just ask when you get there and check in.
emh - depends on when you are going... its in the main park and fantasy land and discovery land. Some of the rides.
i looked into the tour and decided against it, as it comes back very late .. midnight ish... and from what i heard... you get out a few times... but there is no chance to really... "visit" anything, just a quick look at and pics.
yes there are shops in the village, i loved looking in them at the end of the day!
:woohoo:
now i am sure someone will come along and answer them far better... hahaah

Hi, I'll try and answer some of these for you:
I don't think there's a luggage limit on Eurostar, the bags go in the same carriage as you, at the doors usually. We've never been told our bags are too much, and we take loads!
If you have booked your package with Disney you will have Disney express included in your package price. This lets you leave your luggage at the desk in the station and they will take your bags to the hotel for you. On the way home, you will leave your bags at the hotel, and they will be taken to the station for you to pick up. If you have not booked directly with Disney, you can add Disney express on for 15.00 per adult. You will need to speak to your agent for this.
There are shuttle buses right next to the station to take you to your hotel, or you can walk through Disney Village. I think it will take about 15-20 mins to the Cheyenne. Sorry, I can't remember about hairdryers, and not sure of breakfast, but someone will help soon, I'm sure.
EMH is in the main park currently 8-10 each morning, when some of Fantasyland and Discoveryland should be open.
Tons of shops in Disney Village :thumbsup2
We've done the Paris by night coach tour and really enjoyed it. We stopped for about 20 minutes at the Eifell Tower (sp) and got off for some photos. The tour is really interesting and the lights are just stunning.
HB has 3 levels, HB, HBplus and HBPremium - each will let you dine at various restaurants and cover the cost of a starter, main course, desert and soft drink. More info available on the Sticky information thread, or on the disneyland paris website, which lets you see what restaurants you can eat in for each type of voucher.

There are free shuttles to and from each of the onsite hotels to the train station, which is literally 2 minutes from the gates of DLRP. The walk to and from the Cheyenne takes no more than about 15 minutes if you're strolling.- I
s there a hairdryer in hotel Chenenne rooms?
No, no hairdryer at the Cheyenne
- I am very confused by half-board meal vouchers. If I buy them, can you use them anywhere?
The best advice I can give you about half board vouchers, is, get a glossy DLRP brochure from your travel agent. There is lots of useful info, including exactly what you want to know in your question here, contained in the brochure :)-
Breakfast in hotel – can you go down anytime – we will want to be as early as possible
You will get slots for breakfast at the Cheyenne when you check in, but if you want to go early, you can do that no problem at all the Cheyenne, regardless of what breakfast slot time you get.
- Do one of the parks have Extra Magic Hours each day?
Its always the main park, and until September, its every morning. It may not be each morning in low season after August though, sometimes its only certain days per week.-
Is there anything like Philharmagic in any of the parks?
- I have been looking at the three hour "Paris by Night" tour on Disney's webside, as DH has never been there - has anyone done it, and do you get chance to get off the coach for a couple of photo's?
- Are there shops at Disney Village- I’m sure there must be but I can’t find any on Disney’s website! I need a World of Disney!!!!:confused3
I don't know what World of Disney is, but theres a huge Disney store in The Village, plus shops attached to Rainforest Cafe, Planet Hollywood, etc etc.
Thanks so much!!:goodvibes
Hope this helps a bit :)

While there is no hairdryer in the Cheyenne rooms you can borrow one from reception for a deposit. We did this one year but then Denise preferred to take her own on subsequent trips.
