At Poly now-Any questions?

[MonorailPrincess]

Wish I had time for a trip report, I'll get to it. For now, I can tell you pools are uncrowded, dining is limited (of course.) Take the boat back for MK, monorail takes a longgggg time if you stay until closing. Bus transportation can make you nervous, but we've entered all parks at least 30 minutes ahead of time being at bus stop roughly hour before park opening

Is water slide open ? Do they sell any travel small size Clorox wipes at the gift shop? I have only heard of the wipes being in Animal Kingdom by the register $2.49 travel size. ( travel pack is what I’m interested in since I can’t find them anywhere)
Any secret items on the tambu lounge menu I’m disappointed noodles probably aren’t because they come from Ohana. We are headed there in November it’s our first DVC stay and although it’s not fully open, we are excited to stay there. Hope you are having a nice relaxing time.

What's the news on Trader Sams? (And happy adventures for your stay!)

 

[MrsBooch]

Does Ohana look like it is ready to be opened (do you see any social distancing markers in the area?)

 

[MonorailPrincess]

No plans to reopen Trader Sams or Ohana, no signs of that.

is the boat you mean the Ferry from MK to TTC or is the smaller boat running?? With the monorail soon going down from the Poly I would hope the smaller boat launch is running. I dont mind walking to TTC but just wondering what other options are open.

Which wing/building do you prefer? Which is better for kids?

Truly appreciate the updates. We will be at the Poly starting on Sunday (Through Friday). First time away this year. We are so looking forward to it even with the many limitations and closures. How are/were the park crowds? I have been reading that attendance has been up.

Is Captain Cook‘s Open? If not, what are the quick service options?

 

[coolbrook]

Are both of the pools open? Are the hours the same at both if so?

 

[MonorailPrincess]

Capt Cooks is open. Both pools are open, not sure of the hours, sorry.

I really want to know what will still be open in Dec? I know they are not opening the resort now until spring or summer 2021, doing room and Grand Ceremonial House refurbs. I am booked for Dec in DVC, and afraid it will be a ghost town, with everything closed. DVC rooms open, but only one pool and nothing else. I doubt anyone can tell you that info, as front line employees won't be told either.

It was busy Saturday and Sunday in all parks. Nobody knows for sure if that trend will continue. During the week, we got in the parks at least 30 minutes before opening, and had no problem getting on the rides we wanted, some multiple times.

Correct. My somewhat educated guess would be the same things will be open then that are open now.

Quick question.... the refrigerator in the studio what is the size and does it have a small freezer.
Where is Laundry Room?
Thanks

That is more than I expect. If Cap'n Cooks will be open, that will be very helpful. Aren't all the food places at Poly open except 'Ohana?
Is the small boat running from Poly to MK, or do you have to walk to TTC to get ferry?
With the monorail closing, I may request a bldg closer to TTC.

Yes, I would CC to be open, they would need to have a QS restaurant open. No small boats running to MK. Monorail to MK is running now, if it closes I'm sure they would add bus service.

How was availability of electrical outlets, computer charging outlets in your villa? When I was there, that was a major complaint of mine (studio). However, I've since been told of outlets I didn't see.

 

[bbn1122]

Thanks for the info.

I will be there in November. I am curious about what you said about getting into the parks a half hour before they open? So, if I show up at MK at 8:30am I will be let in early? How soon are people lining up to get in on say a Monday morning?
And is the same thing with say Epcot, which opens at 11am.
Thanks
