We have a last minute bonus trip planned for 8/20 - 8/25 for me, DH, and our two boys (12 and 9). I have been reading some of the threads and WBC sounds awesome! We have stayed at all levels of onsite, as well as many offsite properties. The past five trips have all been onsite, but we have fun no matter where we stay. I requested a quote for WBC for our stay next month. A one bedroom is available, and the quote was the same as the POP room we have booked. It seems like a no-brainer to switch to a resort with all these amenities and extra room, even though this will be a park-heavy trip. The pools alone will be awesome. There are a few things that we have to consider.
1. We dislike driving in Orlando, so can book a shuttle to/from the airport that is mentioned at the beginning of the thread. As far as getting to and from the parks, is Uber/Lyft recommended? I thought I read you can pay to use a bus transportation but now I cannot seem to find where I read that. Would it be ill-advised to not rent a car during the trip?
2. Has anyone had difficulty getting FoP or SDD FP at 30 days out? Right now we have FoP for both AK days, plus all the other rides the kids really want to go on. I will lose those when I cancel POP. What has been your experience?
