I've been to Disneyland Paris and enjoyed my trip. The CM's were all very helpful.
I'm Scottish though!

A good friend of my husbands has just returned from visiting DLP with his kids and he had a rubbish time....because he's english! When watching a show the CM was asking who in the audience was from which country. Only the English got boo-ed (no other national from a differnt country got boo-ed)! Then when riding the newly opened tower of terror, the bell hop was asking where everyone was from. When he asked our friend (who was riding alone) where he was from he replied with "England" to which the bell hop replied.... "what's the matter with you English, are you too dumb or too lazy to learn another language?". Excuse me! Not appropriate behaviour from Disney staff.....
I cant wait to go to Disneyland Paris. I am an American. I read that it would be good to attempt to learn some basic French-that they appreciate you learning some of their language. I dont know if that is true or not. But I am willing to try and learn some French.
mousemerf.... the OP wasn't talking about Americans, he was talking about the English...
Its not quite as effective if your English, but works well for us Celts.
:ROFLOL:It was before DLP had been...expanded and they literally had about three rides...
I've been to DLP and it doesn't compare to WDW at all. The last time I went was last october and we queued for about 1hour for Thunder mountain and it kept braking down but we just stood patiently in the queue determined that we were gonna ride it eventually when we got on it we were about 3/4 and it got stuck on the lift hill. we were sat there for over 1/2 hour before they fixed it and by this time we were very uncomfortable due to it being on the lift hill and then when we got off there were no I'm sorry for your inconvienece or anything. We spent the whole morning on Thunder mountain and it had ruined that day of our 3 day holiday. DLP is ok but in my opinion has not got the same high standards that WDW has and the weather is not very good either lol.
And they have no concept of the queue system! We only rode PotC and Indian Jones and by the time we did those, we were so stressed out by people trying to cut in front of us all of the time that we just didn't bother with Space Mountain!
It was a horrible experience and I've flatly refused to go back since!
Welcome aboard :wave:
Sounds like you could have had more fun on Blackpool Pleasure Beach on a wet Bank Holiday Monday :lol:
