    trip insurance

    We went with Allianz Classic which covered our 15 and 16 year old for free. I spoke with an agent first to fully understand how to figure out the amound I needed to cover. Park Tickets: I purchased my tickets through Undercover Tourist which allows a refund if you have not signed or...

    Riverside or FQ?

    Just returned from our June 7-14 trip at French Quarters. My first choice had been CBR since we stayed there for our honeymoon 17 years ago. But traveling with a 16 and 15 year old we opted for the refurb/queen beds. What I liked about FQ was our room location. We stayed in Bldg 6, 3rd...

    I've only gone and done it!.. POR here we come..

    I think the issue is that Disney agents may not be able to change booking arrangements you've made with a third party. As much as third party agents may seem appealing, I found that I am a complete control freak. I was more comfortable with calling a Disney agent, making a room only...

    Port Orleans French Quarter Q&A Thread, New for 2012 (thread now FULL and CLOSED)

    We just stayed June 7-14 and although I can't remember how many were given to us each day, I made the mistake of bringing WAWA K-cup type and not the soft round ones. My husband is the coffee nut and he wasn't thrilled with the taste of the food court coffee. He didn't complain (as much) about...

    Taking only one child. Which mod?

    For our recent trip Jun 7-14 (our first time back in 17 years) I had first booked a room at CBR for me, DH, DS16, DD15 mostly because it was where we spent our honeymoon. But I quickly changed it the next day because of the thought of the smaller full beds. We stayed at FQ, but on our...

    Port Orleans Riverside and French Quarter Room Request Fax Thread

    The day we arrived in Florida on our way to visit family for a week in Melbourne, we stopped at POFQ to get an idea of what rooms we would like. We already knew we preferred something in Bldgs 4,5, or 6, with the help of the room maps on the portorleans.org site. We walked around with our...

    ROOM ONLY: Final payment due on arrival?

    We just stayed at POFQ Jun 7-14, with room only discount. You are given a bill at the end of your stay. I made my reservation over the phone, but it was accessible online. Before our stay, several times I went on the Disney Reservations Landing site and selected the "chat" option to ask...

    Do resorts sell cases of water?

    We stayed at Port Orleans French Quarters June 7-14. I almost fell over when I visited the gift shop and saw that a 24-case of MINI bottled water cost $16.99. :confused3 ridiculous. We spent the week prior with relatives in Melbourne FL, so we still had one day left with our rental car...

    >> Using Pools at Other Resorts - FAQ and Questions Thread (No Debate) <<

    I will be staying at CBR this year. What kind of resort id is given to me and how do you keep it in a safe place at the pool when a family is actually in the pool swimming. I'm always concerned that it will get stolen when I leave to go in a public pool.

    A Newbie's Guide to Orlando International Airport

    I'm a newbie, so I can't post links. If you go to the wdwinfo.com/transportation/magical-express.htm When I was testing an online reservation, it had a section titled "Ground Transportation", when I selected it the option for Magical Express came up and it gave the option of using it on...
