DISApalooza 2011 – DIS/DISUnplugged/Dreams Unlimited Travel December Event Details

[*NikkiBell*]

I couldn't agree more, Jack. I am painfully shy unless I know the people well. No one can be shy at a DIS event though! We love everyone!


Well, maybe except lox....

 

[sayhello]

See, I'm painfully shy, too...




OK, I'm totally lying there! No-one would EVER mistake me for a shy person!!!! Not for a second!

I think it's great that DISApalooza is going to be a shy-free zone!

Sayhello

Lox is incredibly lovable. Just wait and see, LOL! I'd give my left arm for a good bagel with cream cheese, lox, and capers. However, as mentioned in other posts this morning...I'm in TN. Good bagels can be found, though not great but good lox? Not happening. Not here.

Question - if we have dinner reservations in Epcot for 7 pm, will that give us enough time to get where ever we will need to be in time for the transporation to the EVENT?

Hey JenniBug,

I'm originally from Bristol, all my family is still in the area. We're in Greenville, SC now, not far away. Just wanted to say HI!

I would think that would be cutting it pretty close. You never know how long dinner will run. Sometimes service is fast and sometimes it's not. Plus you have to plan on the time to get out of the park, to the transportation and then to the event. Anyone know how long it takes to go from Disney Property to Universal?

To whom it may concern,

Can I use the this years logo as my Twitter pic, or is that not cool?

Depends on the time of day, traffic and I4 in general. Id allow 1 hr just to be safe.

I made my dinner ressie for 5:15 the day of the event. I don't want want to rush and I will need some time to drive to Universal.

I have an ADR for the next day, but hope they announce the time of the podcast taping soon. I really want to go and don't want my touring plan and meals to be scheduled at the wrong time.

 

[TIGGERmetoo]

I tried to get an earlier resv at Via Napoli but there isn't anything available. I guess I'll keep trying or maybe show up early and see if they will seat us.



Have a safe and happy holiday!

Also keep in mind that the email confirmation we received says to arrive at the entrance to IOA 1 hour before the event at which time they'll start taking people in groups. Because of this, they may schedule the disney bus transportation to arrive at IOA at least an hour before the event, so 8:30pm. Because it takes about an hour from Disney to Universal I'm guessing they will schedule the bus to leave approximately 7:30pm but they'll probably want people to arrive at the bus pick-up location earlier than that to check everyone's name off, get seated, etc. Of course these are all just guesses, but I'm hoping you do get an earlier reservation just in case!

It only takes about 1/2 hour to get to Universal but I would still allow plenty of time to get to the bus.

 

[HollyMac71]

I will definately be having a nap in the afternoon!

Thanks - that's kind of what I thought. I'll have to see where else we can get reservations.

Ok....sooo no one knows about lockers yet?

 

[safetymom]

Does anyone know if the lockers will be available?

I can't speak for the other attractions but there are lockers for Forbidden Journey.

There are also lockers for Dragon Challenge. They're located over near the Hogwarts Express "station."

We are having to push back our Sept. trip due to unforseen circumstances, so we will be arriving on Dec 10th and are planning on attending! It will be me and my 8 year old daughter and I am VERY excited about this!!!

THanks!

I was just wondering in case, we can use it throughout the night.
