1. What TV channels do you get at the resort? (i guess ABC, ESPN and the Disney Channel?)
It's fairly limited, but they have those along with some networks and other common channels (and a lot of special park-related channels). Unless they've changed it, no Nick, Cartoon Network, etc. (as you may have guessed).
2. Do each section/floor have a vending machine and ice machine?
If I remember correctly, there is Ice on every floor. Munchies are on every other floor. I'm drawing a bit of a blank, but I think there are soda machines on every floor. (but I may be wrong about that). The ice and vending are near the center of each building near the elevators.
3. Is the mighty ducks section classed as preffered, as because the fantasia pool will be closed, this seems to be the best location to request.
I believe Fantasia is the preferred section (closest to the main building). If you would prefer mighty ducks, you can probably get it since it's the farthest from the main building, most people would prefer to not get it. I doubt you will be able to reserve it ahead of time, but if you request the Mighty ducks when you get there, I expect they'll give it to you (and you won't have to pay the extra (10 bucks?) for the preferred building.
4. Also i have heard, usually the busses can be quite crowded as they are shared with the other AS Resorts, will this be the same during September or will it be a lot quieter.
We've never had a problem, and September shouldn't be too bad. Actually the busses only seem to be shared during the slower times (late morning, early afternoon). During the mornings and evenings, they seem to have more busses running and more dedicated busses.
Have a great time!
