ECV use at Shades of Green

[JNorris]

Anyone have any experience with this? DH broke a toe months ago, and now doctors have decided he must wear a cast up to his knee! He has arranged for an ECV at Shades of Green. What's the best way to get back and forth to the parks? He thinks he will just ride the ECV from SOG to the Poly, and then catch the monorail there, but if I have to walk back and forth from SOG to the Poly 2 or more times a day, plus walk around the parks all day, I may need an ECV myself!

Do the busses at SOG have ECV access? I guess he could use the wheelchair lift if they have one. He can walk very short distances with crutches, but I do not want to have to break down and put together an ECV myself. If we go to AK or MGM, will it be best to take the SOG bus to the TTC, and then get on a Disney bus?

Also, do we need to get a GAC in the parks, or will that not be necessary, since his injury is apparent?

and all of the SOG busses had accessability. The ecv just rolls on to the lift and it gets lifted on to the bus.

Under the resort board, I just responded to a thread called "pros and cons of Shades of Green" talking about the SOG busses and how they work. With a little planning, you will be loving life there with the ecv.


Off topic, I am supposed to check in on Thursday, but I just got a call today saying they have overbooked the resort for the 19th and 20th and want to put us up at POP! I could have booked POP for $68 a night when I booked my $111 per night shades of green room. I am freaking out!

Can they really do that? A few years ago, we booked at SOG and got put in the Contemporary. Can you ask them to put you somewhere else? Surely they know you would just cancel and book yourself into Pop for much cheaper!
