What's the best way to insure I'm not miserable our entire stay?
The boat takes about 20 minutes. It sometimes stops first at Port Orleans French Quarter, but that’s the only extra stop. There are a couple of ways to guarantee an alligator bayou room. Book a preferred room or book any “fifth sleeper” category room.
The number of stops that your Mears Connect bus will make varies according to many factors. It will be anywhere from 3 or 4 to a few more than that. Very late arrivals tend to have more stops, but there is no way to know for sure.
Like the above poster said, it all depends - but last Monday we got a private van for the four of us, even though we paid the base price. We took it as pixie dust... not sure how often that happens!
They are large enough for your container of milk.
Excellent! Thank youThey are large enough for your container of milk.
If you won't be hanging around the resort a lot and skyliner access is important to you, give CBR a try. I am not a fan or CBR for the theming, resort size and room conditions (Right now I think they rooms are the worst of all mods right now). Just be aware that as long as the skyliner is running, there are no buses to Epoct/DHS. Also, when there's lightening in the area, the skyliner will go down and the buses that take over for Epcot and DHS are slow to arrive. The lobby was remodeled several years back and is very nice and I know Sebastian's reopened which is a perk. Sadly bus issues can happen everywhere and at every resort and while I know CBR has more stops than POR, I'd say it's a luck of the draw situation on your experience with buses. I just don't enjoy the resort and while I love the convenience of the skyliner, it's not enough to draw me back to CBR.
And, I just found out with the Disney+ promotion I can stay at POR with park hopper for pretty much the same price I could stay at CBR with no park hopper. I'll save CBR for a kids trip with fancy pool/skyliner.
They can accommodate but just know they don't get colder than 41 degrees so it's not great for a lot of food items. Milk for example is supposed to be kept colder than that. It was disappointing for me last week because it affected my dog's food because it didn't keep things cold enough!Excellent! Thank you
Oh good to know ! Maybe I’ll just get some fruit and granola bars etc. We don’t eat a huge breakfast but I do like to have a little something before we leave the room and not waste park time looking for breakfast.
We usually do bars and fruit for something quick to grab also. If you do decide you want cereal, you can do shelf stable boxed milk, it's not that bad. We have kept milk and yogurts in the fridge in the past and I guess we were lucky. We also do the instant oatmeals and use the coffee maker for hot water. Two weeks will be here before you know it. Have fun and enjoy POR!
