    AKL - Splitting trip btwn concierge and savannah view

    I think its a great idea and I know several travelers that do spilt stays with CLs. My one suggestion would be to consider "switching" the set up (3 nights savanah first, followed by 2 nights CL) to really take full advantage of the CL and wind down from your 3 days at the parks. I'm not sure I...

    If you book room only now...can you..

    Once you add the DDP to your reservation, it's no longer "room only" since the DDP is indeed a MYW package; therefore you are going to need to purchase tickets (1-day base tickets at the minimum) for each member of your party as well at the time of "upgrade". We've "sorta" done this before...

    Thinking about splurging for Concierge Level.

    Honestly... there is no harm in asking at check-in. I do think that it's "tacky" but what's the worst they can say... no? You are more then welcome to offer to pay for the upgrade, but as another poster mentioned, be prepared for a steap price; especially if you originally booked a discounted...

    Port Orleans Riverside room question

    All moderates (including Port Orleans Riverside) feature in-room refridgerators at no extra charge. Just note that they are not "stocked mini bars" but rather your typical "dorm" fridge.

    Cabanas

    As far as I know, the GF (and I think maybe the S&D) is the only resort to offer pool side cabanas. The cabanas are equiped with a small table and 2 chairs, 2 lounge chairs, stocked fridge, 22in flat screen television, DVD player, phone, and satelite radio/ cd and mp3 player; and has a...

    Cabanas

    There are no cabanas available for rent (like at the GF) at either Disney water park. There covered areas that feature picnic tables/pool chairs but are strictly first come first serve. Typhoon Lagoon has several scattered around the park. These covered areas are "no frills" and your typical...

    Another Magical Express Question

    I clicked your name and noticed that your staying at AKL... When we stayed at Pop our bus was for Pop, CSR, and AKL; in that order. We had just missed a bus and the wait was about 15mins for the next bus... a little frustrating when your in line with a toddler! If there's a wait to...

    Philharmagic and men with blueprints

    Sorry, but I was not impressed with this show... Maybe it was all the hype I read about it beforehand, but I can't understand why it gets the rants and raves it does after seeing it. We loved the music and overall story... but found the execution (sound, flow, etc) to be a disaster and...

    Any reviews (of THIS years ) Pirate & Princess Party???

    We haven't been (yet) this year but have been reading the reviews on several other fan sites since we're going 3/11... biggest things we've noticed is: No candy this year... just plastic jewels, necklaces, etc. The parade/firework times are no longer listed on the map; now they're on a...

    Free Dining Questions

    I didn't want to give the OP the impression that you physically had to call and ask them to cancel your reservation, then call back to book a brand new reservation etc. I'm sure there is a whole bunch of mumbojumbo that goes on behind the scenes in regards to events like this, but in the past...

    Free Dining Questions

    You do not have to "cancel" your reservation, but you do have to call and have CRO apply the discount code to your exisiting reservation. You can do this with any room only reservation or even any package. Don't call to cancel, then call back to book, simply call to have the code applied to your...

    Leave a Legacy Steals Souls!

    I'm really not sure why anyone would think that after spending thousands of dollars to get my family there, surrounding myself with swarms of crowds via buses, monorails, and parking trams, that the first thing I "really" wanna see when I walk into a park with my family.. is other people's...

    Caribbean Beach Resort

    CBR ranks top on our list of moderates for a variety of reasons: 1) Rooms: While CBR is the oldest of the mods, the rooms are the biggest (340sgft) which is actually the same size of the rooms at the WL and 4sqft smaller than the rooms at AKL. The decor may not be as new and "fresh" as POFQ...

    Armed Forces Vacaction Club Condos?

    I did a search through the Armed Forces Vacation Club site and it appears that once you enter your month of travel, several resorts pop up with availability. It seems to be either 1 or 2 bedroom villas... but some resorts only offered 1 bedroom while others offered 2. It might help if...

    Questions re: Contemproary resort

    The pools (2 on property) are not "zero entry" like you'll find at the Polynesian, Grand Floridian, Animal Kingdom Lodge, Saratoga Springs, and Yacht and Beach Club. There are steps, ladders, etc. to enter and exit the pool. I will say that there are several, spacious stair entrances located all...

    Grand Gatherings mess

    In regards to your ADR question... As long as you you know the name/confirmation number, you shouldn't have a problem. Whenever I call to make/cancel/change a reservation they ask for the name and the reservation number or phone number it's under. You should have a Confirmation number for...

    Grand Gatherings mess

    My guess is that since you have two seperate reservations: a reservation with AAA for POR and a reservation through a DVC member for VWL, you would "have" to recieve two seperate GG numbers; especially since it appears as two seperate vacations in Disney's system. When you applied GG to your...

    Pop Century transportation?

    We stayed at PC for the first time lat January... we weren't overly impressed... but was surprised at how nice the buses actually ran! We felt they were timely and efficient, and the bus rides weren't long at all. We had stayed at several moderates before PC and I actually liked the "bus...
