I'll be the one crying in the lounge LOL, we actually changed to Portofino I have EPCOT FP for 1130am on so I'll be trying to stay at BC as long as possible Here's to hoping your flight is on time so (selfishly) I can meet you!!We check in on the 20th! Our plane lands at 9:00. What time are you checking out? Maybe we can cross paths in the BC CL lounge! If not, hope you have the most magical trip and have fun at HRH (we love it there too)!
Cheers to that, I wholeheartedly agree!!!Teena: you do a wonderful job making everyone feel welcome! Can't wait to see you in September!
Hi Teena, we're checking in on Thursday for 9 days. I hope to at least to be able to say Hi to you. Thanks for your contribution to the board, I've been learning a lot
Now, if anyone can help me on this, if I understand correctly, we will get mousekeeping services in the morning and evening? Do you usually leave tips twice a day then?
Hi! I'm sure this has been asked and answered before but I can't find the answer. Is there a way other than walking or waiting for the boats to start running to get to DHS early for rope drop? We went to a morning EMH last year at rope drop and waited for the boats. By the time we got there the lines were huge already. Do the busses run at all early in the morning? Or is my only option to walk if I want to get there before 7:45?
Yes, born in South Jersey, raised my family in the Harrisburg area (thanks to hubby's job) and then retired to Florida over 11 years ago. Yep, I miss the Northeast's tomatoes, corn and Tastycakes and now that Wawa has arrived here, I'm a happy camper (love the hoagies and pretzels). I'll be traveling out to my daughter's to help her in her classroom (and of course to see Princess Lily) ... I leave next Tuesday but will be back to work on 8/30. Still thinking I might hop on the Disney Fantasy for a week on 9/12 but nothing definite on that yet. We'll probably decide this week.
Just came back last Tuesday. We stayed on the first floor in the 1600 section. There was still work being done on the 1500 section, which I guess would be closer to Epcot and Villas. Never heard anything.Hi everyone!
Checking in next week. I know that the main floor rooms of the BC are currently being refurbished. I'm wondering from anyone who has been there recently if they started from the middle and are working there way to the end, (towards Epcot) or vice versa.
Any info. is very much appreciated
Thanks!
Cab is another optionI'd like to know as well. I arrive tomorrow and will be going to DHS on Thursday.

I realized at some point last week that I never gave my TA our flight information, so we don't have the yellow tags for DME. I did email IPO and have us set up to take the bus. At first I thought, no biggie. We'll just collect our luggage and head to the bus. But now I'm thinking its me, my 12-year-old and a 3-year-old in a stroller. How workable is that - put the older kid to work pulling two suitcases while I pull a third and push the stroller. And probably tote all the carryons. I think I should save myself the literal backache and have a car pick us up.
I have had bag tags sent to me by 2nd day air. You can try calling DME directly at (866) 599-0951 and explain your situation; they might be able to get tags sent out in time.
Otherwise. I understand that you can go directly to the Magical Express customer service counter at MCO, and give them your airline claim checks. They can pull your bags and transport them directly to your resort.
I'll have to try that. I'd rather take DME. I think, especially when you first get there, it's fun to watch the videos and get excited. On the way home.. They should just play Old Yeller.
Please let us know how it works out. I have found the phone reps at DME to be extremely cooperative and helpful. If you explain your dilemma on the phone, ASAP, they just might be able to come through for you.I'll have to try that. I'd rather take DME.
