Hi, We are hoping to visit our daughter later in the summer, and she has informed us that she will be able to get some passes for us. You have said that these will also work as a fastpass, but she has told us that she needs to be with us in order to get us into the parks. So does this...

Hi, Apart from the on-site hotels, the Swan and Dolphin and the Hilton at Downtown Disney, does anyone know if any other hotels have EMH entrance? Really need two rooms, but obviously on-site hotels will be pricier. Thanks for help

Many thanks for your replies. Passed the info onto her last night, and she said that she had already thought of getting a mobile when she arrives. She is really looking forward to her time over there.Still working on her to let us come over for a visit!

Hi, We live in the UK , and our daughter is due to work over in WDW this summer, and I would like to know the best way she can contact us while she is there. Does anyone know if there is internet connection available in the residences? If not, where in the Disney world would she be able to...

With the recent snow, does anyone know how the weather will affect the parks? Will any of the outside rides close? I am assuming the parades are cancelled. And will transport to the parks be affected, as I know CDG in Paris has been badly hit by delays/cancellations. Were hoping to go...

Hi, My daughter has an interview next week for work next summer at WDW. If she is sucessful, how easy will it be for her to get from accommodation areas to the parks. Are there staff buses provided? As she cannot drive ( we live in the UK) , would this be a problem for her if she is offered...

As a family we love visiting WDW, but we also like to see as many different cities/ countries as we can. The last time we had a Disney holiday, we flew Manchester to Orlando via Chicago and then back via Washington. We had a couple of nights in Washington to break the journey up and it also...

Hi kirst al UK, Last year we spent 3 weeks in California, and visited both Universal and DL. We stayed at Paradise Pier and spent 3 days in DL, and DCA. Although we travelled in July, we were there on the Mon, Tues & Wed and didn't have any problems with getting to see everything. If you plan...

Pretty much my reaction as well, but each to their own , I guess!

Thanks for the reply, I'll pass the info on. :wave:

A friend of mine is due to visit Florida this summer from the UK and will not have time to see the parks. However, she wants to take her girls to one of the water parks for a day. Can anyone tell me if single day tickets are available to buy on the gate at either BB or TP? And how much are...

Universal Hollywood is really small. We were there for a day last July, did everything more than once, stopped to have lunch, drinks and stuff, and never felt like we were rushing around. The best part of it for us though was that it is a working studio. They were filming '...

We have been fortunate enough to have visited WDW several times in the past 10 years or so. We have always had great holidays, finding different things to do on every visit. Last year we thought we would try California for a change. We went at the end of July ( their heatwave had just ended...

Our daughter decided that was the restaurant she wanted to celebrate her birthday in ( she was 8 ), and she loved it. Our waiter made a big fuss of her, got everyone around us to sing happy birthday and went into the kitchens and got 'Mom' and 'Sis' and eveyone there to sign a birthday card for...

Last summer our family spent a month on the West coast and absolutely loved all of it ( well, except the traffic in L.A.!) We stayed at Paradise Pier and saw everything in the 3 days we were there. We also stayed down at Newport Beach for a few days, but were really disappointed - thought the...

Thought you all may be interested to know that last Sunday, a UK paper ran an article called ' A Life in the Day' all about Joe Rhode. It detailed what he does in a normal day. The article was really interesting, and if anyone wants to read it, you can access it online at...

We have flown VA many times over the last 10 years, and to different locations. The only time we experienced any problems was due to our flight being delayed for 24 hours. The situation was very similar to that described by UKHelen, only differences being we were met at Downtown Disney at the...
