I've got CSR booked atm, but might look at changing to CBR for £200 more.😊

When will you know if you are going back?

I'm still looking for decent flight prices! Wish I'd have booked before TC collapse, as they're £150 more pp than they were before now 😞
Hope you manage to get some decent priced flights, they do seem pretty expensive at the moment.

We’re trying to decide where we could stop off on the way, dh wants a bit of a change from last year so once we’ve decided that then I can look at flights.

Here now and it’s amazing... haven’t been able to access the Dibb for a few days, dodgy Disney WiFi 🙄 we’re at the far end of Jamaica, so no pool yet. It’s handy for Spyglass, Skyliner and bus stop. Had a good look around the food courts, couldn’t see any grapefruit.
I’d rather not get into the Skyliner for/against debate, same with the Riviera.
But this resort is everything and more that the good people on this thread say it is... there’s nothing better than sitting in the Banana Cabana watching the fireworks across the lake! 👍

Here now as well and not noticed any grapefruit drinks in the fridges either.
The upgrades to the resort since we were last here 4 years ago are brilliant only downside is less choice on the menu since then.
It is a great holiday resort though just wish the Skyliner hadn’t messed up as I really liked it the few times we were on.

Thanks for looking. They had a Minute Maid one last time we were there, so was hoping it was still there😞

Hopefully they've still got enough to run a normal bus service while Skyliner is down.
20 years ago at the All Stars resort, the main gripe was “they need to put more buses on”
Fast forward to now, the main gripe is “they need to put more buses on”
It is what it is! We haven’t waited longer than 10 mins. either going to or coming from the parks, sometimes, when your tired and your feet are killing you, it just
seems a lot longer 😉
It’s going by too quickly, only a few days left we’re dreading
returning home!

Hey L2P, not long to go now 😊
They def had it at Pop Century in July. Might be worth checking there? 😀

Hi Uncle Paul,
So glad you love CBR and haven’t waited more than 10 mins for a bus.
I always find the buses are a nightmare for whichever resort we stay at, at park closing time.
Did you get to ride the Skyliner before the incident?
Not sure how long you’ve got left now, but have a fab time, it’s always sad when it’s time to leave.

Thank you. I'll check at CBR, including the Spyglass Grill, and if it's not there and the Skyliner is working🤞 I'll pop over to Pop

This time next week we'll be driving down to Gatwick 😬😁

Wow... not sure if your countdown has gone quickly for you but I remember reading some of your posts when it seemed like you had ages to go! Have an amazing time
