    Shuttle from Disney Springs hotel to Port Canaveral (not Disney cruise)

    We are looking for a shuttle for two of us to go direct from Hilton in Disney Springs to Port Canaveral on Sunday. We are on a NCL cruise so using DCL transport won’t work. We’re thinking about Uber but have heard it may be difficult getting someone to take us all the way there and don’t want...

    Which resort: POR vs CBR

    We got that same deal and decided on POR. When we stayed at POP last year and used skyliner it was an awesome perk, but I remember flying over CBR and unless you are in the building near the skyline, it seems like it would be a huge walk to get to the Skyliner. CBR seems really spread out.

    Husband arriving last day of our stay

    I will be at POR with my two children for four nights in November before we head out to our Timeshare in Cape Canaveral. My husband is going to fly down on the last night of our Disney stay arriving around 11pm and we'll get up the next morning and head out. My question is - will there be an...

    Anyone been at Pearson Toronto lately?

    We had no issues departing Pearson on Jun 15 going to Dominican Republic - quick check in around 9:30am for 12:30 flight. Plane took off on time. Return flight on Jun 20 arrived early around 10pm and then they announced that since we were early they had to find us another game and it would be...

    Ontario - Best Medical and Travel Insurance for Son no longer covered with my Company Benefits?

    Hi - OT - my son is now finished University and as of August 30 will no longer be covered by mine or my husband's company benefits for medical/dental and travel (we are both with Manulife). So now we are faced with searching for coverage starting Sept 1. He's also taking a 2 month trip...

    Tolls New York State

    We drove to Florida from Toronto with no transponder in mid April and so far we only have received a small bill from NY which I paid by credit card on line. Where we had the option to pay at a booth (like Florida), we used those, but we did pas through a number of bill by plate sections in...

    Toronto Dis Fans - any interest?

    Hey There. I am cleaning house and have a small bag of Disney trinkets that have accumulated over the years (small plush and bobble heads and plastic figures). I was going to post this on my local FB free page but since this group has been so helpful throughout the years I thought I’d offer to...

    One Day Park (hopping) strategy - staying offsite

    We'd like to do a few rides (soarin, test track, thunder mountain types) but I'm not going to pay for Genie as the rides are not make or break for us, but for sure strolling flower and garden will be a nice thing to see. My son (22) will probably join us for the day - if he wants to do more...

    One Day Park (hopping) strategy - staying offsite

    Thanks - If you had to pick one park to enter at beginning of day, which would be the easiest to get into and avoid most crowds - am I reading it correctly that now every day there is a 30 minute early entry at every park for all onsite guests?

    One Day Park (hopping) strategy - staying offsite

    My husband and I will be driving to Florida and staying at the Orange Lake resort between April 21-28. We have leftover non-expiry park hopper tickets uploaded to our magic bands. We have done Disney many times pre-pandemic but always stay on site. I've been reading the boards about all the...

    We are driving in April from Toronto to Orlando so would love to know your experience with tolls along the way and if its worth getting something in advance or just paying at toll booths or the plate photo which I assume they would mail us a bill. Also interested to hear how your border...

    Covid testing LEAVING Canada

    If you loaded all this info into the check in system prior to arriving at airport, all that info would be available for airline checkin to see so no need to ask you for it.

    WDW for three weeks suggestions?

    Thanks for the ideas! We will be staying off site and I'm wondering if we can park at a hotel and ride monorail/skyliner and then eat at a hotel or is that still not allowed?

    Areas for Nice Walks/Hikes

    My husband and I are driving to Orlando from Toronto and will be in the Orange Lake River Island Timeshare from April 21-28. We plan to do one Disney day, but mostly this vacation is just to relax and enjoy the pools and warm weather. However, we are not ones to spend entire days lounging at a...

    Doctor's letter for travel question

    Do we absolutely need a letter if within 90 days of having covid? Could we not just produce the PCR Positive test results from the government website? Or may be cheaper to just get the rapid antigen test at Walmart or SDM if by now we are not testing positive?

    Travel from Hamilton Ontario to WDW along I90 and I77

    Since we are still a little indecisive about how long we want to drive on first day, do people find it necessary to book a hotel in advance or is it typically easy to find a reasonable clean and economical place to lay our head for that one night?

    Poll: Have you changed your plans?

    I can't seem to find this anywhere, but did they lift the restriction on short cross border trips < 72 hours so that we only have to provide vax proof each way? I'd love to make a quick x-border shopping trip if that's back in place!

    AC Flight Rescheduled? Advice?

    call cruiseline rep and ask to get on a direct return flight. the FLL airport is 10 minutes from the port so ideally you could ask for a afternoon flight. Hopefully they can accommdate that but not sure if you have that flexibility when booking air with cruiseline. Also it may be possible to...

    Travel from Hamilton Ontario to WDW along I90 and I77

    Good to know! How many hours do you find is the typical drive from Toronto with border crossings and food/gas stops (i'm assuming you're from that area!?). I don't really want to drive more than 12 hours in first day since just two of us. Thanks

    Travel from Hamilton Ontario to WDW along I90 and I77

    We are also driving in April from Toronto. A friend's parents usually break their trip up by staying in Princeton. I was looking at maybe going a bit further to Mooresville (just north of Charlotte) to get a bit further on day 1. I'm just not sure if we want to drive 10 hours or 12 hours on...
