We go in October to OKW but due to circumstances, we may have to cancel. Our payment date is August 12th so take heart, there may be others in the same boat and suddenly your date will be available. Can you not set an alert with Disney, if you are already staying at OKW and just want to add a...

I have said this in a similar thread. Why introduce the skip housekeeping and pay the guest when you then have to employ extra staff or pay existing staff to work extra hours to check the skip rooms. To me, someone higher up thought, less housekeepers required equals money saved, and didn't...

My only thoughts on the matter are if Disney is implementing room checks, why on earth did they decide to offer guests the choice to opt out of housekeeping and pay the guest to do this. The amount of money they are spending could have gone towards an extra member of staff to go round with...

At the moment DIS Unplugged youtube channel is showing their 7 resorts in 7 days and they have covered CSR and should be posting both POFQ and POR pretty soon. They loved CSR and said that the construction was very well managed and no issues re noise. They also loved the room refurbs and the...

If you watched DIS unplugged Disney vlog from yesterday then the resounding answer is Coronado Springs. They are under construction but they seem to be doing it way better and with very little disturbance to the guests. Carribean Beach, however, in the panel's opinion should have closed to...

Have to agree that the Tripadvisor New York Forum is great for ideas and planning your days. Got a lot of info on our last trip and going back in July and feel more confident about exploring more. We flew directly from Edinburgh 1st time with United into Newark, monorail to railway link then...

Can I just add to my previous post? On the Disney website, we can choose between any of the suites, Lion King being the one we favour, but The Little Mermaid rooms are much cheaper, but also much further away from the bus stop according to the map. Is it a very long trek from there, unfit 54 yo...

One time we had a lovely lady who would leave animals crafted with face cloths and the smaller guest towels, we knew straight away when she was off as the room was done differently if that makes sense. I felt really bad so left an envelope at reception I just didn't want her to think we didn't...

We have been coming to Orlando 10 years now and always stayed at POFQ, except last July where we did a split stay. 1 week at POFQ and 1 week at Universals Portofino Bay. Now it was lovely but there just isn't enough at Universal to stay for a week there, and we have been to Seaworld, Busch...

Just with the huge amount of construction going on at CS & CBR I would stick with either Port Orleans resort. I know they say that there is minimal disruption during the day but to not have reduced rates is something that Disney should address. I know that at some point people who had booked...

We usually buy the mug or get it free with the Dining Plan. I do not like drinking hot beverages from them so I bring a cup from the room.

We stayed at Portofino for a week in July and just loved it although very pricey. Loved the boat to Citywalk as you go through security at hotel dock so the off the boat and straight to parks. If you just want something light to grab and go there are a few options including Starbucks and the...

We are thinking of staying here in October and through the Disney website. Son has been reading up on different suites and The Lion King seems to come out on top. It is an option on Disney website and think we will just go for it. There is just the 2 of us but like our space. Wondering how...

Thanks for that. Still looking. We have a week in October booked at OKW, booked it last July when we came back and managed to get free dining, had to wait till it was 330 days out before we got confirmation as its DVC. We were lucky on Disney website as all they have left now is the 3 bed villas...

We have been staying POFQ for the past 10 years and this year is the first time they aren't available for our October dates. Checked Disney website, only Riverside. Looked on Virgin holidays and they had it but we faffed around that much that a week later it had gone. CBR has so much...

We have been staying there for the past 10 years and you will not be disappointed. In fact last July we did a split stay for the first time, week at POFQ and a week at Universal's deluxe Portofino Bay. Now we did enjoy staying there, cc didn't. But for our last full day we got a cab to TTC, boat...

They refurbished the eating area in July 2016 so we were pleasantly surprised by the food changes. They have cold snacks and nibbles and a better choice of healthier breakfast items.The rooms have a fridge in the cabinet unit so handy to store supplies in. Sorry don't know water prices but over...

We have been staying at French Quarter for the past 10 years. We come for 2 weeks and do all the parks, Disney and all the others. We just use Mears as they have taxis on the grounds, but know that Lyft/Uber are much cheaper. July past we did a split week between FQ and Portofino at Universal...

Animal Kingdom is now a night time park, with Pandora, the Tree of Life Awakening. Hollywood Studios has major construction and lots of ride closures. If its a persons first time, then enough to see and do but everyone else its a half day.

There are daily flights from all London airports to Edinburgh, the train is far too long and you will be so tired after the journey. Not the best way to experience UK travellers
