    Preparing for Nicole, Rain tips, and other advice!

    I know this is a dumb question, but does Disney not offer anything in exchange for the fact that we lost out on HOURS of park time? We had 2 day passes, for Wednesday and Thursday. The rain sure put a damper on my daughters birthday trip, and we’re still drying out.

    Disney's POP CENTURY RESORT Information & Questions

    Slowly making my way through this thread. I have a couple of quick questions. Are there any connecting rooms? We haven't stayed at a value in years. One of my favorite things about the values has always been the food court, how is the one at Pop? Can you make an argument on booking Pop over...

    Hilton Options?

    To expand on the idea of a value resort... Pop Century is only $110 cheaper for the entire stay, but wondering if it would be a fun stay? My daughter and her best friend (coming with us) are seniors in high school, last spring break. Last value I stayed at was the ASSports. Does Pop have a...

    Hilton Options?

    We haven't stayed offsite since 1998, and usually stay in one of the Deluxe resorts. That being said, for our upcoming trip, we decided to stay offsite because we are only in town for 3 nights and only one day at a Disney park. As we are Hilton Honors members, we are currently booked into the...

    Off Site?

    As a big fan of the Deluxe resorts, I'm hesitant to look at offsite hotels, but am doing just that for my upcoming spring break trip. The Hilton at Downtown Disney - does this get me the "extra" hours at the parks? I noticed the hours for Magic Kingdom on the day we will be there are 7am -...

    Cancelled Trip to Poly - not good enough!!!

    I completely understand! For us, there are too many other options out there to go to Disney and pay rack rate. We tend to go Easter weekend and have ALWAYS (strangely enough) gotten a decent discount. This time, nothing, so we're going to explore the other options. I just don't feel Disney...

    Chef Mickey's at 7am?

    Its what we usually do as well. This time I made reservations online - that's new for me. The email confirmation I received definitely says "does not include characters"...

    Chef Mickey's at 7am?

    Doesn't include characters? Is it too early for them to wake up?

    No Discounts At All for April 17-23???

    Spring break is hit or miss. Some years we see discounts, others not. Last year I got a SWEET deal at Bay Lake. Keeping fingers crossed that I see something for this year... or we'll be staying at Cocoa Beach instead.

    need to rent scooter for WDW and cruise

    We aren't cruising on Disney, we're doing Royal Caribbean. Our plan is to come in by train, use a car service to take us to Disney, to the port, and back to the train. My mother isn't mobile, but from what I'm seeing, it appears to be easier to rent a scooter at wdw, and another one to be...

    Just back from BLT

    I wasn't impressed - could have been at ANY resort, definitely didn't feel special/Disney.

    Just back from BLT

    The room itself is fine, much smaller than the tower room I had in CR. Here my biggest complaint about CR isn't a problem - the noise. CR is just too busy and loud. There is nothing at BLT... you have to go to CR for everything! After a long day at MK, and I've walked back to BLT, I really...

    Just back from BLT

    I am sitting in a MK view studio right now, and I have to say I am glad I came down with no preconcieved ideas... So that I wasn't surprised. I will say, after 13 trips, this is probably my LEAST favorite resort. I can explain that in more detail if any one cares. Walk from MK last night...

    Easter Church Services?

    Anyone know if they still hold Easter Services at the Contemporary? It's been a couple of years since we've done this, but in the past we've attended services before heading to Port Canaveral for our cruise.

    Benefits of Staying Club Level

    I look forward to reading those links. We stayed club level at the YC and weren't impressed. Yes, it was neat being greeted at the door and escorted up, but the lounge was NEVER open while we were at the hotel... and we tend to not do any of the activities they can assist us with... trying to...

    AP discount over Easter

    What number do I call? I don't remember it being this way a couple of years ago, but I'm all for it! If I found a room I wanted, how would I buy the AP?

    AP discount over Easter

    Thank you. It eases my mind... no need to rush out and get an AP. We are mentally locked into the Park view...

    Is The Tag Fairy....

    I just figured the tag fairy retired... haven't seen a tag change on mine since the original was put up... A LONG TIME ago!

    Ouestions about the Contemporary?

    Wow, I always seem to be the one swimming against the tide! We stayed in the tower, can't remember what floor (maybe 10?), but we were above Chef Mickeys... and first thing in the morning I could hear Chef Mickey's getting ready for breakfast and the noise only grew as people arrived for...
