Say, did I mention that I used my 20% off to book a Courtyard View? I am so excited about staying here again.

Yeah us too, can't wait!!! We booked flights today so it must mean we're getting closer!

Hi everyone,
We have stayed at the WL a few times now and are planning another (surprise pre-honeymoon!) trip back. On the Disney website it only lists bus as available transportation; has something changed? I hear that there were plans for a direct boat to the MK, but have they taken the boats away?

Hey AWM!!!!

I'm a WL vet too!!!!!!

cmd - the first postings of this thread talk about the boat transportation.

cowtownmom · 02-09-2008, 03:06 PM

I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post my question on, but I'm hoping one of you will know.

Are reservations necessary for either the night wagon ride from Pioneer Hall or the Campfire program? Thanks for any answers!

My thoughts where if Scottny used a discount code he would have known this information.

I know that in Scott's case he booked Beach Club with a Bounceback Offer and then switched the ressie to the WL. So it is possible that it is a code signifying that he had booked a Bounceback package.

As another poster pointed out the three letter codes probably denote what package a person has, whether or not it is discounted doesn't matter, every package has a code. ABC, XYZ, etc each has a meaning that probably only the Disney staff know.

The WL has boats that go to Magic Kingdom, Contemporary and Fort Wilderness. It also of course has bus service to all the parks.

They have started the direct boat service to the Magic Kingdom and Wilderness Lodge, it is now the Red Flag Boat the resort Blue Flag Boats continue to operate between the three resorts.

You know, we were just there at the end of January and I SWEAR (and so does DH) that the blue flag boats were the ones to the MK and the red flags were the ones to the other resorts. I know this because we stood on the dock in the freezing wind with 100 other people one morning waiting for an MK boat (blue flag) to come, watching red flag boat after red flag boat come and go.

Edited: Nevermind! I've been proven wrong (below). Thanks!

There's a sign at the end of the dock, so, regardless of color, it would be pretty hard to get on the wrong boat.

Sorry...but Beckie's information is correct. I was just there red flag bosts does go to Magic Kingdom.

Just found this photo from the dock over at the Magic Kingdom, the Wilderness Lodge was to the left, Ft. Wilderness Campground was on the right side it now has the green flag boats.

I had a different code and it was 30% off. That is why I asked because I knew it wasn't a code for that because I know the code for it and it was for a bounceback offer like Lessa said.
Oh well I was just wondering. I was expecting it to say "woods View" but it does not.

Are there refridgerators in all rooms?

are they mini ones? How much food & drinks can you fit in them? Can they fit a gallon of milk? or would it be better to buy a half gallon? bottled water? yogurt, etc.

Are there coffee pots in every room?

thanks.

Refridgerators and Coffee Pots are in each room. (All Deluxe and Moderate Disney Resorts have them) It is better if you purchase the half gallon milk. The following photos are from Deb's website showing you the exact size.
