A first timer's questions on BCV

[csarenz]

Hi everyone,
We are staying at BCV in January and I have a couple of questions.

1. Is there a separate entrance for BCV or just the one BC entrance, and is there a separate check-in desk?

2. I have seen a lot of varying reports, so about how long is the walk from BCVs to International Gateway, DHS and Boardwalk?

Thanks,
Chris

There is a separate entrance. When we were there in Dec '08 there was no separate check in, but there had been in the past.

The walk to International Gateway isn't that long. I honestly never timed it, but we walked it with a three year old not in a stroller. Same with the walk to Boardwalk, but with two four year olds. Not bad. DHS is pretty far, we've walked back from DHS to Boardwalk last December, and after a long day in the parks, it wore us out.

Have a great trip.

Hi: We were just there the beginning of May. You can also cut through the lobby of the BC and exit for the villa walkway near the Marketplace. Check in is at the main counter. The walk is shorter from BCV to the International Gateway is way shorter than from BWV. It only took about 5 minutes. We didn't walk to DHS. Hope this helps.
