POP Century~Unofficially the Grooviest FAQ Thread #8~July 2013

Made it to POP. MagicBands are working great! Very easy to spend money, which I know Disney loves!
I would never request a pool view room again. Quiet hours are not being enforced. Some kids were in the pool until 3am, yelling and such. Thank goodness I brought ear plugs, but MIL did not, so she only got 3 hours of sleep last night.

Not sure how long you will be there or how you feel about a boxed fan but we had a pool view (2nd floor) in May and stayed just one night and was able to get a boxed fan which helped! Just call housekeeping on your phone to request one!

Checking in next Friday! We booked the ressie on Tuesday along with one for next Sat and Sun at Yacht. We got the magic band invites for both resorts. I did the magic band order for POP first which we still haven't gotten and already have our Yacht ones!

That's why we request the highest floor. Not as noisy. We have not heard much noise this week at all, but we have been exhausted and have been sleeping like the dead, lol. We are facing the lake that is between Pop and AoA.

I know you can do online check in 60 days out but does anyone know if you can call to check in and when? My TA has already requested a certain building but I want to request it again and throw in lake view, but I've been reading that online check in isn't good for request.

I called to have my requests added to our reservation, and asked for an email confirmation of the reservation which shows the requests I made. Then I did online check-in and made the requests again. Not sure if that will work, but I tried the best I could.

Hopefully the requests you made during online check-in are exactly the same as the ones you made over the phone. Any requests made during online check-in overwrite and remove any made via phone.

Absolutely!

Absolutely!

Great. Our neighbors found out about this the hard way.

We are staying at Pop from Oct. 19-26. I just signed in and clicked the FP+. It took me to the page to select the dates and pick attractions! When I went to the Manage MagicBands - nothing. I will let you know what happens next!!

Also, any Pop merchandise being sold other than pins? I really would love a t-shirt, or sweatshirt, or mug . . .

I'm fairly certain that there is Pop merchandise at Everything Pop. We only walked through there once when we were at Disney in June (we stayed at AoA) and I seem to remember seeing hats and t-shirts. I know there was resort specific merchandise at several resorts this summer and I bought an AoA t-shirt and my son bought a mug.

hi all, i'm stopping at pop again in october and just wanted to ask do they still do the pizza delivery to the rooms? when we were last there in 2010 we didn't have one of those groovy pizza menus in the room so assumed they stopped.. Thanks!

Maybe you have a discrimination suit here.
