    Just back - lots of good days but also bad.

    Wow, I write an honest review and because I say I won't be going to WDW you think I'm a troll. Talk about being blinded by the mouse, everything isn't fantastic in Disney. I've been there around 8 times, 2 weeks a time, and this time we realised that for the money you pay etc there are other...

    Just back - lots of good days but also bad.

    Just thought I would share my experiences with the nice people on here. First off the hotels, OKW. It is quite simply the nicest, quietest and spacious resort on property. So ten days in OKW was fantastic. But we left OKW for POP due to money/flights etc, I've stayed at all of the all stars but...

    Flying with Thomson.

    Hello! We leave in just over a week and I'm just wondering what the service with Thomson is like. Any idea what the meals are? Or the films on the plane? TIA.

    OKW to POP. Is there a big difference?

    Thanks again, we won't be on the dining plan for the final 3 nights so I was thinking of doing universal etc so to not waste meals. Yeah with the mugs if I wasn't allowed to use them I wouldn't. But there is no way I would buy another set for 3 days. As PP's have said I'll most probably get...

    OKW to POP. Is there a big difference?

    Thanks for the replies. Not looking forward to it being busy compared to the quiet OKW, but looking forward to staying in a different hotel. Another quick question, the refillable mugs, will we be able to use our OKW ones at POP?

    Suggestions for Table Service lunch?

    If you're looking for a park TS, pick Le Cellier in Epcot. A lovely meal and restaurant to finish off the trip. :thumbsup2

    OKW to POP. Is there a big difference?

    Helloo :) In a couple of weeks we'll be on our way to OKW but due to flights being cheaper etc, we've extended our stay by 3 nights. OKW were charging stupid money for the extra nights so I picked POP. I've been to all the AllStars but never POP. Will I notice that much of a difference moving...

    Breakdown

    A couple of stoppages but only one where we had to be walked off by a CM. It was the decline in HM before the man with the dog. We waited for about 15 mins and then were walked off with the lights on. You don't appreciate the little things until you see them in the light.

    Free wi-fi at okw

    Does anyone take their phone? Considering taking my iphone and just taking the sim card out so it'll effectively be an ipod.

    From Sanford airport to Disney?

    Thanks for all the replies, I'm still trying to convince the family about renting a car. But with it being a different country, different side of road etc, it's taking quite a bit of convincing. If not, I think I'll try out american coaches as a PP mentioned.

    From Sanford airport to Disney?

    We tried Mears and they said we had to email them and that's when they got back to me with the taxi and private car quote. There was no mention of a shuttle bus in the return email. Apart from getting to the hotel from the airport, we wouldn't use the car again so my family said forget it...

    From Sanford airport to Disney?

    Hellooo, I am just wondering how everyone gets to Disney from Sanford. I've had a quote from Mears but that was quoted at around $100 each way by taxi or private car. But surely there must be a cheaper way of getting to Disney. Any ideas? Thanks. P.S. We won't be renting a car.

    POP Century ~ Unofficially the Grooviest FAQ Thread #6 ~April 2012

    It's official I have finally booked POP as the 3rd hotel in a 3 hotel split-stay in September. It'll be my first time there and I'm more excited for this hotel than I am for the other 2. The other 2 being ASMu and OKW, even though I love OKW I can't wait to try something different. :banana...

    Tickets in a split-stay?

    Hi, first off I didn't know whether to put this thread on this board or the resorts board, so apologies if I'm in the wrong place. Right, luckily we've been able to extend our stay in Disney in September. However this involves a 3 hotel split-stay. Starting off in the Dolphin then OKW and...
