Hi all
In January Mrs Courtman and myself will be staying in a WDW Resort for the first time. We have booked a 4-night land / 3-night cruise package staying at Port Orleans Riverside.
We actually arrive in Florida the night before and are going to book an extra night in the hotel so we can go straight to the parks at 9am! I have a number of questions about staying on resort:
In January Mrs Courtman and myself will be staying in a WDW Resort for the first time. We have booked a 4-night land / 3-night cruise package staying at Port Orleans Riverside.
We actually arrive in Florida the night before and are going to book an extra night in the hotel so we can go straight to the parks at 9am! I have a number of questions about staying on resort:
- Transportation. Some of the threads on here seem to indicate that the coaches from the resorts to the park are not the way to go. What are they like from POR and if we took the car to the park would we have to pay the parking fee?
- I've been told in an e-mail that our package includes a park hopper ticket. Will this ticket be valid from the start of the first day and run through until the day that we move to Port Canaveral for the cruise? We'd like the opportunity to spend the morning in the park if possible.
- Can we charge items purchased in the park to our room?
- Do you get early entry to the parks being a resort guest?
- Are there any tours or trips that you would recommend of the parks or WDW? And how much are they?
- Any other hints and tips to make the most of the stay....?!
