    Bus or Car to Parks, that is the Question

    Thanks for all the responses. It seems to be a mix of suggestions. I plan on using the bus for MK for sure. I might use the car for Epcot or MGM one day and see how it works out. I definitely plan on using the car for the water parks. I don't want to be jammed with 50 other dripping...

    Bus or Car to Parks, that is the Question

    My daughter (7) and I will be at All Stars Music 3/15 - 3/19 and will have our own car. Would it be best to use the Disney Bus system or take our own car to the parks? Also, which stop is AS Music in All Stars bus loop (First, Second or Last)? I know there will be several thousand...

    Actual Opening Times vs. Stated Opening Times

    Thanks for the response. I have a 2002 edition of the "Unofficial Guide..." and it still suggested to arrive 40 - 60 minutes prior to scheduled opening, since they usually opened early. I guess that edition went to press prior to 9/11 and the cut backs.

    Actual Opening Times vs. Stated Opening Times

    Do the parks stick to the scheduled opening times or do they still open 30 minutes to an hour before the stated time? I am not talking about Extra Magic Hour, but actual times you can get into the park on Non-Early Entry Days. I know several years ago it was common to open Main St in MK 30...

    All Stars Transportation - Disney Bus vs. Car

    Bus Service to Magic Kingdom

    We requested Magnolia Terrace near the East Depot. Do they pick up at all stops every 15 minutes or just the South Depot? If not, how often do they serve the other stops at POR?

    Bus Service to Magic Kingdom

    Thanks for the information. I'm glad to know we don't have to allow extra time for catching the monorail / ferry to get to/from MK. Since the French Quarter portion of PO is closed for renovation, that should also help with the bus situation (unless they reduce the number of buses!).

    Bus Service to Magic Kingdom

    We will be staying on site for the first time at POR for our trip next week and I have a couple of questions regarding the bus service to the Magic Kingdom: Do the buses drop you off directly at the Magic Kingdom gate or do you still have to catch the Monorail or Boat from the TTC? Do they...

    priority seating rules

    While I don't agree that the CMs should have been rude, I do see their point. Why is it fair that one person (or group) holds 3 or 4 different Priority Seatings for the same time, then decides at the last minute which one to use? This causes two problems: 1) Other guests are not able to get a...

    Spectromagic Tips

    Thanks for the input from everyone. I just noticed on the Disney website that the have extended the hours on Monday (June 2) and will also be having Spectromagic and the fireworks that night as well. That may be a better option now, since we will be leaving home around 5:00 AM on Saturday...

    Spectromagic Tips

    Anyone got any good tips for a place to watch the Spectromagic parade and still get out of the park easily before the crowds leave? We will be arriving at WDW on May 31 for 4 nights at POR. This will be my 7 year old daughters first trip. I want her to be able to see Spectromagic and the...
