If you’ve looked at a map with 2 bus stations it’s out of date, it’s a throwback from when it was good old Downtown Disney. The redevelopment has all buses now dropping off and picking up at one larger station.

The offer Disneymadhouse is referring to is for the UK market only so you wouldn’t qualify. Disney regularly make the offer to the UK market as an incentive as we have to factor in the cost of transatlantic flights to the overall package price. I always wait for the offer before I book. We do...

Don’t get my post wrong... if Saratoga Springs hadn’t made the offer I couldn’t refuse, I would have stayed at CBR (and moaned about the buses when deserved) there are plenty of good things about the resort.

For what it’s worth, we overheard a bus driver telling a lady who complained that “he was late” according to the time screen, that the times shown don’t reflect where any bus is and that the buses are being fitted with a new tracking system which will be far more accurate when rolled out. (He...

This is a peculiar update post... good stuff, bad stuff and a twist at the end. Having checked in Monday evening, we have found the resort to retain a lot of its charm despite the construction of the new resort, gondola buildings and towers and the centretown refurb. The food at both the Spy...

Not in ours.

Slightly off topic, but I like to share as you’re my friends.... Yesterday me and GoofyGavin got wetter than we’ve ever got on a ride before... yes, it was splash mountain, which prompted me to share a traveller tip: GoofyGavin looks a lot younger than his years so carries our passports in his...

They’re at Sleepy Hollow, the fruit is banana, strawberries and blueberries and if you really like Nutella like us, it’s worth asking for extra when ordering. It is a quick service credit, but I was originally planning on paying oop as I didn’t think it was on the ddp (and I did enjoy... and...

We too got bitten by the MK bus weirdness this morning. Missed one by 30 seconds and had to wait nearly 40 minutes for the next, during which there were 3 AK buses in the space of 5 minutes and regular Epcot ones. We’d have got to MK far quicker if we’d gone to Epcot and caught the monorail...

Well, we’re here...... just a quick update as I’ve been up since 5.45am (UK time) that’s now 20 hours!! Seeing the new resort building on the way in isn’t the best greeting but, it is what it is, and we’re not here to sit and look at it. Check in was efficient, bell services delivered us to the...

If the WiFi is good enough in CBR I shall let peeps know my first impressions tomorrow night(ish). Flight from London arrives 3:35pm if it’s on time, or perhaps Tuesday first thing if it isn’t. Rather annoyingly the UK weather is forecast to improve greatly just after we’ve left :headache:

Definitely a UK offer, I booked early enough for ‘free’ dining plan, photopass and $200 gift card (and I’ll pass on mousekeeping) it’s to encourage us given that we have to factor transatlantic flights into the overall cost, which is gonna add upwards of $750. The lack of those offers is...

They don’t have to be no frills... I flew back from Fort Lauderdale to Gatwick with them 18 months ago after getting a good deal for their premium economy. If you look at the figures, their premium economy seats have the biggest legroom of any airline. When sat back in my seat I couldn’t reach...

I’m doing it all the other way round this time, previously stayed at SSR and OKW with the ‘normal’ Dining Plan, next week heading to CBR with free Quick Service and have realised just how many quick service restaurants we’ve never been to! Not having to worry about gratuities is a bonus too...

Thanks for the objective report. We are coming for our first CBR stay in just over a week, but as you say, it’s with “eyes wide open”. We only use Disney Transport and have Quick Service ddp included in our package, so I’m grateful for the very relevant feedback on the buses and Food Tent. I’m...

It’d be the the same for the pair of us, we’re only travelling with carry-on this time. Normally we’d happily walk from check in to a room, but the previous resorts haven’t had the remote check in without footpaths.

For us Brits that don’t understand ‘tipping’, what would be a fair gratuity for the bell services drop-off. “Tragical depress”.... like it :tongue:

I’m gonna use the app so I can tell people what I was doing til the app told me the washing was finished :crazy: Hopefully will involve sunshine, food and alcyhol

GoofyGavin and I are travelling with hand luggage only on the way out. We can use the electronic passport readers on arrival and can head straight to DME. We’ve tested the bags and can get everything in the BA hand luggage allowance, including a large collapsible hold-all with wheels which will...

Another vlog review of Spy Glass Grille. Shows a bit more.
