Yes, Luggage Assistance will bring your luggage that you dropped off at tbe counter, to your room. They will not escort you, though.

but I gotta ask - why are you bringing a large ice chest? Won't your food fit in the room refrigerator?

maybe they are traveling by car and have it for food for the trip too. We do that on car trips.
 
Okay, then it might benefit that poster to know they'll be able to park (potentially much) closer to their building and room than the porte cochere.
 
Last week there were 2 options. 24-pack of 12oz bottles of Dasani for $7.99 or 8-packs for $3.99. You might have to ask for the 24-packs as they might not be on display.
Does anyone know if cases of water are still available in the store? I don't see them on the mobile order menu.
 


How late does the skyliner run? Our flight lands at 5 and I was thinking about a late dinner at Trattoria al Forno. Would an 8:10p adr work timewise after our flight and would the skyliner still be running to get us back after dinner?

My original plan was Disney Springs, but thought with limited time it would be stressful.

10:30 pm last call for Skyliner from IG.

Just to clarify, if I want luggage assistance, I stop and drop the luggage at the normal spot, go park the car, and they take the luggage to the room and drop it whether I am there or not? Or do they wait for me at the room if they get there first? Usually I get to the room before they do, but I could wait outside the room if necessary while they do the drop. I just want to be sure to tip at the appropriate time so I don’t miss them. I didn’t need luggage assistance for my mini trip last month, but for my long trip later this month I would appreciate the help. It usually takes me three trips to the car for a long trip when they can do it in one.
 


Hopefully I word this the right way.... I have an honest question about riding the Skyliner in the morning. I didn't know where else to post and though it fit here because the Skyliner is a transport option for the Pop.

Here goes: One thing I enjoy about getting to the parks in the morning is drinking my coffee on the bus or Skyliner, it just seems relaxing to me to enjoy my coffee and the ride to the park (it's kind of a meditative little ritual for me). Plus the coffee is always so burning lava hot right away at the food court that I need it to cool down before I can drink it! Ha! I know that won't be possible on the bus because there will be other people and I don't think it would be acceptable to sit there and drink my coffee on the bus. But since it would only be me or me and my husband in the Skyliner gondola I'm wondering if that would be acceptable to sit on it without my mask and drink my coffee? Has anyone done this? I also know that I could just drink it before and I would survive just fine. Not looking to break the rules or anything. Thanks for any input.

I thought there was no eating or drinking on the busses as a general rule. Guess I was wrong about that. sorry I’m no help with the skyliner. I was planning to keep my mask on when we go and ride it but I don’t know official policy.

From reading the Disney website, I believe they will only deliver luggage to occupied rooms, so you would have to be there when they arrive.

You are correct, you are not supposed to eat or drink on the buses and there are bus drivers who will say something if they see you do so.
 
What's the hand soap situation at Pop? Just bars? Or do they have a liquid soap option? I can't remember and normally I tolerate bar soap for hand washing but with covid I will probably bring liquid if they don't have it in the rooms.

Definitely-they still have the "No Smoking/No Eating/No Drinking" signs on the buses.

I will say that it does seem to be "acceptable" by most Drivers if the Guest has a drink with a SECURE LID,SCREW CAP,ETC. and "sips responsibly". :)

Interestingly and I could just have missed it,but I don't recall similar signage for Skyliner,and there is "Skyliner Joffreys",so maybe rules are more "relaxed" for Skyliner,but not sure.

It was bar soap for the sink when we were there last month; all liquid products for the shower.

Follow up to my original question...How long should it take to get to the Boardwalk on the skyliner? Our flight now lands at 4:45p, so i figure 2 hours to get to Pop and in our room, could we make it by 8:10?

I assume official policy will be to keep the mask on because if the skyliner cabs aren't cleaned after every group exits then you could be infecting the next group if you take the mask off. But I'm guessing that most people will take their mask off between stations...

Does the air circulating through the Gondola vents help some but not enough?
 
What are the times for the first buses to both MK and AK?

Thanks!
Think we’ve been seeing ppl report first bus an hr before park open. Which means if on first bus, the park will likely already be open since they been letting you in about 45min prior to official open. You’d prob have to show up before the hr before open at bus stop given the potential lineup, and only 25 per bus cap. I’m probably planning on being out there by 7:45 for MK and 6:45 for AK maybe even a little before.
