    Bus Transportation from Animal Kingdom Lodge Jambo House

    We will be there this week-end (staying at AKL). One question : is there a separate bus-stop for each park, or is it one "general waiting area" for all destinations ? (Is there a separate "line for teh bus" for each park, or is it just people milling around and then swarming o the buses as they...

    problems doing online checking - is it down ?

    Online checkin is still not working for me. What is weird is that I can retrieve my dining reservations using the reservation-number. But online check-in says "error,...". I guess I will wait for a couple of days, then try again. I arrive Sat (4/10), so I still have time...

    best reasonable table service paying oop ?

    Thanks all for the great suggestions - much "food" for thought. Thanks especially for the pointer to the online menus - that is a great help, I can easily see which places are easy to split and which would be hard. Plus I can see the buffet prices & menus online, so that helps a lot as well...

    best reasonable table service paying oop ?

    I am visiting in April (10-17). Kids are 11 & 14, so adult prices - so I am not going to do the dining plan. We will mostly eat counter service (paying OOP), but I want to reserve some (maybe 3 ?) TS meals and pay for them out-of-pocket. Of course OOP prices on table-service Disney...

    is dining plan worth it with 14 & 11 year olds ?

    I am planning a visit next April. If my kids were younger (< 10), the reguar dining plan would be a great deal for them (and so for teh family). If they were 10 years older, they would probably enjoy the TS meals a lot. But at ages 14 & 11 (adult !! dining prices per Disney), I am waffling...
