Just ordered the tickets. Super excited - going to visit the Mouse first and then on to Universal for our first visit ever! Looking forward to the whole experience and especially WWoHP with great DISers!!! I am just praying my credentials come in time as we are up in the Great White North and the mail is a tad slow at times. Being a type-A planner as most of us are, of course I need at least 1 thing to stress about LOL.

Just back from our first trip at WWoHP and the Adventures of HP was absolutely amazing!!! It has now surpassed Soarin' as my favorite ride. I am very excited to take my neices and nephew, not to mention the DH who missed the trip.

It is going to be really lovely to see it without crowds and I loved Butterbeer.

 

[jk and ek]

the trip we've been planning for a year just so happens to be the same week as this event..and while looking over our planning spreadsheet, the 10th is the only day we had no firm plans for the day aside from a dinner at jiko....i think that's a sign! (especially since we were trying to work out a way to visit IOA but were only really interested in WWOHP so it was hard to justify the effort)

i just submitted the request for both of us, i hope there's still room!

This thread has been so quiet. I hope they discuss the event during this week's podcast. I know the crew has been so busy this summer. And I can't wait to hear about London/Paris.

 

[sorcerer sergio]

It's less than three months away, woohoo!

I'm guessing we will get some more info in a couple weeks, after the Aulani and ABD reviews!

 

[mnra]

Can you attend the recording of the podcast if you are not going to the universal event.

We plan on going over to City Walk early that day by cab.

Thank,

Hi Mark

Yes - you don't HAVE to use the transportation if you sign-up...but you have to sign-up if you want the transportation - both or one way.

You also cannot give your 'seat' to someone else if you decide not to use it.

Thanks
John

For those who drive to Universal, will they be charged the usual parking fee?

Yes - regular parking fees will apply.

I know the bus transportation is only from/to Disney property. However, are there any plans to have a Downtown Disney pick-up/drop-off - for those who are staying off-site, but would have late-night transportation available between DD and their hotel?

We have not worked out the specifics with the bus company yet as to where/when the pick ups and drop offs will occur. We have to wait until we have a full count of who will be using the transportation and where they will be staying.

The bus company is going to charge us extra per pick-up and drop off location so we are trying to minimize the number of these we have. If people are staying in one resort area and can walk or take transportation to 'centrally located' resort we will try to do that.

The likelihood of having a seperate pick-up/drop at DD is slim.

Thanks, John. I booked 2 WWoHP tickets, but my friend is staying at Bonnet Creek - making her return transportation more difficult. I would book the bus just for myself, but the info says everyone in your party has to use the bus.

John, I noticed my hotel on the transportation sign up is showing as French Quarter, but I have changed to Riverside. Is this a problem? I already sent in my payment.

Thanks,
Kim
