Disney Dream - October 9, 2011 - 4 Nights

[Grooovertoo]

We are staying through Monday the 17th also! But kind of doing the parks backwards of your schedule! We are doing Backyard BBQ on the 13th, Epcot 14th, AK/DHS 15th, and MK/NSSHP 16th. We are on the main seating with the later show time. You? We are also staying at the Polynesian and doing the Luau the night before the cruise (on the 8th) -- it's that whole Island theme!

I set up the park scedule based on touringplans.com forcast for the crowd level for each day (I know, very geeky). We have the early show with 2nd seating. We are just going to stay at the Hyatt MCO the night before, since our flight doesn't get in until 6, plus this way we can get up and get on the bus in the morning.

Life got in the way and wasn't getting reminders again... bah!

I'll repost the lists in a moment (hopefully I have them up to date and correct)

I set up the park scedule based on touringplans.com forcast for the crowd level for each day (I know, very geeky). We have the early show with 2nd seating. We are just going to stay at the Hyatt MCO the night before, since our flight doesn't get in until 6, plus this way we can get up and get on the bus in the morning.

No, not geeky -- I did it that way too (or at least I thought I did -- online for those particular dates -- guess we got totally different takes!)

I'm actually surprising family with Poly the night before -- they think we r going to be at CBR before as well as after. But we have 3 different things we r doing at the Poly, so I thought it would be easier just to spend the night there and do it all at once!

Oh, and my daughter is excited to meet your daughter!

 

[Blanche_Neige]

Did this for our last cruise and it helped pass the weeks.....
21
Fridays to go!

I like this much more encouraging then 141 days left

 

[divabydisney]

Grovertoo- We're also doing the MCO the night before. Who all is doing this?

We are also flying in the night before, our flight lands around 7pm. We will be staying at a hotel around MCO.

I saw a bunch close by for about 80$ including bfest and airport shuttle.

Just found out we cannot check n for the cruise at the airport because we are Canadian we have to wait to do it at the port

What time do you guys take the DCL bus (MCO to port) in the am?

 

[DisneyMom2008]

We are flying in on Friday and staying at the Hyatt for the 2 nights.

 

[jjgarv]

we will be by the pool at the Raddisson
Although just found out the there is no longer a "free" shuttle to the port so I guess we are keeping the rental until the next morning.

the Radisson at MCO or the Port?

 

[jjgarv]

Radisson at the Port.....we used to stay close to MCO but prefer getting our towards the port, we rent a car and then are able to hit grocery store, liqour store, and get any last minute items we might need.....plus the hotel is great there.

saw the picture on the website, it looks great. But since our flight comes in past 7:30pm the night before I think we are better off staying around MCO.

Does anyone have a good one to recommend around MCO that is not too $$$?

 

[DisneyMom2008]

We are staying at the Hyatt in the airport and booked it through Last Minute Travel for $113 a night.

 

[Stephieann]

We are flying in the day of cruise .... wish we could come in the day before but we are cruising with our preacher and he cannot miss 2 Wednesdays and a Sunday!

 

[Blanche_Neige]

We are staying at the Hyatt in the airport and booked it through Last Minute Travel for $113 a night.

Is that the Hyatt Place or the Hyatt Regency?

if you got the Hyatt Regency at 113$ (tan included) that is a good deal.

I looked up the website you mentioned I saw one hotel (pictures look like Hyatt Regency) but the price I got with tax was 128$

 

[DisneyMom2008]

It is the Hyatt Regency. I booked it about a month ago so the prices may have gone up, sorry. It is still a good deal compared to the Hyatt's website. My family & I like staying there because we get up in the morning and head downstairs and do not have to worry about our luggage! On the website it is a 4* towards the bottom of the page. I hope you can find a good deal!

 

[Blanche_Neige]

Are you guys planning on doing excursions? if so which ones?

How many of you are staying onboard in Nassau? Last cruise the ship was still pretty full the day we were at Nassau, pool area was really busy.

We just left the ship to walk around see the stores, straw market and came back.

We are going to do excursions -- I can't imagine going places and not getting off the boat! But then, this is our first cruise, so maybe 10 cruises from now I'll change my mind.... (NAH! )

We're going to do a Dolphin encounter. And I want a massage at CC! (Then just bring me a few drinks, and I'll be good to go!)

Thanks for posting. I booked through that site & am thrilled. I'm fine with $128 - it's a heck of a lot better that Hyatt wanted on their site!! Thanks again!

after talking with my DH we decided to book there too

But I want to make sure I get the Hyatt! When I look at the Last Minute Travel website the hotel at the bottom 111$ + tax looks like the Hyatt (Pictures) but why does it say it's 3.84 miles from the airport The Hyatt is less than 1 miles from the airport

I'm I looking at the right one?
