Ok I do not have a laptop so is there any Cyber Cafe like place where I can get internet access once a day? There are flights that I need to check on for yet another trip and I know in my heart they will open up while I am at "home" this Thanksgiving at BW. Does anyuone have ideas?


:confused: :eek: ::Pinkbounc :bounce: :Pinkbounc
 
...because we need to check flights too - for the next DVC trip;)
 

There are telephone/internet kiosks scattered throughout the theme parks, but be prepared for a hefty per-minute charge. Also, I believe there is a cyber-cafe on the top level of DisneyQuest.
 
But I don't want to go to Disney Quest !!!!! Ok my little brain will now have to go into overtime figuring a way around this one!
 
I believe you can also go to the business center at the BW and pay to use the internet there. My DH did this to check on his Fantasy Football scores.

There are high speed kiosks at most of the resorts. At OKW, it's located in the entryway to Olivia's. It's free to access any Disney site- otherwise, I think it's .25 per minute. The machines accept credit cards.

Enjoy!
 
If you have a rental car and are near DD, there is a Kinkos next to Tony Roma's. They have about 12 PC's and cable modem. It is around $12 per hour.

Directions to kinkos...
1.Go past DD......

2.At the light at the Crossroads intersection(McDonalds on the corner)

3.Turn left at the McDonalds and 1/4 mile down on right turn into plaza with Kinko's and Tony Roma's
 
Now that Disney is going to High speed access at the resorts, all you have to do is head to a resort that already hads this available. Bussiness centered resorts like CSR have wireless access already for 9.95 per day.
