    Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

    I chatted with a CM about this Friday night. He told me that EMM is cancelled too along with EMH. It is an oversight on the park hours calendar.

    Disney World eliminates outside vendor drop off services

    POFQ definitely has golf carts assigned to Bell Services. They can get you to your building.

    things I wish Disney World hotels have

    I wish Disney would invest in water chillers for the pools. I have been in a number at various resorts (POFQ, ASM, CBR, etc.) that feel like bath water in the summer time! Failing that, how about an ice block or two?

    Penny Machines

    My family is addicted too! My son took it on as a hobby in 2010! We have 463 of the current 468 coins in all four parks. We will get those five this summer! We have a number from the resorts too! It's a fun hobby and both of my kids enjoy hunting for the machines!

    4 Parks 1 Day- I’m Not Afraid of a Few Stinkin’ Cheerleaders: A February Tale: Update 11/5

    We love the POFQ! Great resort with great theming and great Cast Members. We are going in August and have planned the Four Park Challenge for our last full day. We were there 12/27 -01/01/18 and on New Years Eve we hit three parks in one day and loved the experience!!!

    What is so amazing about WDW?

    For me, Disney World represents a place of great affection - affection for the resort but also affection for my kids. It is a place where I can spoil my children. Nothing makes me more emotional and happy than seeing my kids have the time of their lives. You cannot beat the family time at...

    "We're Going to Disney World" Suprise Box

    I surprised my 20 YO DD and 16 YO DS with a X-Mas Trip this past December. I made a photo book (did it at Walgreeens) with photos from all of our last trips and then taped a custom greeting card to the back cover. The card said, "Guess What" (on the cover) and then, inside, "You are going to...

    Jambo! The newest AKL Information thread

    I can't wait! We are so looking forward to the huge pool, the restaurants, the animals and the great bus service to the parks. Five minutes to AK? I am in!! POFQ, we love the quaintness, and the theming. However, this is a step above. I am really looking forward to visiting the bars there too!

    Jambo! The newest AKL Information thread

    Staying at Jambo House 7/24 -8/1 and so excited. Renting DVC points for a standard studio. Can anybody tell me which stop (generally) AKL is from MCO? I know it can vary some but I am hearing it is the 3rd stop after CSR and POP? Trying to plan the arrival day and ADR's.

    Have you made a switch from value and/or moderate resorts to deluxe? Was it worth it?

    Stayed there January 27th - 2/2/28. Nice hotel and good service and free transportation to the parks. I was able to use Hilton Honors points and pay for the room for the entire stay. The rooms are a little larger than most Disney World rooms. For us, however, not being a resort guest, we...

    >> Using Pools at Other Resorts: FAQ & Questions <<

    The pool at POR in my opinion is much nicer than that at POFQ. We like the slide better, there is more deep water (the water temperature stays cooler, at POFQ in the summer, that water can get quite warm), and the bar is nicer. I love the Hurricanes they serve there!

    Have you made a switch from value and/or moderate resorts to deluxe? Was it worth it?

    I am in the same boat at you and looking forward to it! We've stayed at ASM, CBR, POFQ (twice, personally our favorite); and off site - Disney Springs Hilton (this past X-Mas), Marriott World Center. For our July trip, we've are going to AKL and super excited. I rented DVC Points from...

    Just left....My thoughts...

    The issues with Disney Springs is virtually anybody can go there. It gets so unbelievably crowded especially at night. I'd love if Disney just made it available to resort guests but obviously that will never happen. The best time to go is the morning if you have to. Typically, the only...

    Help with problem?

    I ran into the same problem. I ended up calling Disney reservation and got transferred to a rep (I think her name was Piper) in their Internet Help Desk department. She ended up having to delete our profiles and re-enter them to get things fixed. She was then able to tie the reservations...
