Won't matter. The end of October is a big winter break for the Northeast schools. You'll see nothing but Patriots, Giants, Jets, Steelers, Bears etc, jerseys. If you're trying to get into The ESPN Club anytime football is on you will have a crazy long wait. We went 2 years ago the week before Halloween and it was nuts. It's like the cast of 1992 Rosanne all pack up and go at that time.

I think so. My wife and the Disney vacation planner has everything set up.

My job was to arrange airfare and lodging.

The huge Local draw on the weekends makes Epcot almost unbearable

I'm going during Thanksgiving this year. Staying at Port Orleans. Never stayed there but I hear it's okay.


French Quarter or Riverside? The 2 are completely different. POFQ is a small resort with only 1 bus stop. POR is similar to Caribbean Beach in that its broken up into clusters of rooms with multiple bus stops. I hear Riverside is nice, but POFQ is just too convenient for me to even want to think about staying somewhere with multiple bus stops.

You can see the two resorts in this Google Maps link. POR is at the top with several clusters of rooms in an oval shape and a road going around the perimeter of the resort with multiple bus stops. POFQ is a much more condensed resort with 1 bus stop right out in front of the main building.

I mean, it's not terrible. It's MUCH better than going in January or February where you catch the South American Dry Season (their Summer holiday) and it's nothing but Brazilian tour groups doing soccer cheers everywhere.

This is seriously one of our favorite resorts to stay in. We stayed there last year and my kids loves the late night beignets at the hotel quick service. The buses can get a little packed at peak times but other than that it's one of the few places that my wife has never complained about.

I never take the bus anymore. Car to the TTC or the individual park.

When it's time to leave a park, it's time.

Eh, to each his own I guess. I like parking the car and not touching it until I have to leave. Or not having to rent a car if we flew in.


And for those of you asking about Caribbean Beach Resort, here's the link to that on Google Maps. You can see how spread out that place is as well. So, if you don't get a room fairly close to the main building, it's a pretty long trek to the food court and pool area.
