Yes, of course! Uber, Lyft and regular taxis are all fine. You will have to meet them outside the gate of the housing complex, I believe, but all those companies know where to meet passengers. My daughter used Uber all the time to get to an off-site dance class she took during her Disney...

Hi! Congratulations to your son on his acceptance! My daughter is there right now (on an International Exchange Program from Canada). Yes, tell your son not to bring many clothes. My daughter flew down by herself with one checked bag and one carry-on, (INCLUDING bedding) and has been just...

We always go to Disney Springs on our arrival day. We fly in from Canada, so we're tired and not fit for the parks. My kids always loved going for supper at Giradelli's - the only time they were ever allowed to have dessert for supper! They also really enjoyed the Lego store and Once Upon a...

Quebec City is my favourite city in the world (New Orleans is #2). On our most recent trip a few years ago, we were lucky enough to stay at Chateau Frontenac. It was heavenly! They do tours of the hotel throughout the day if you are interested.

Thanks for reassuring me that I won't need to stay in one of the most expensive resorts to use this service!

Thanks everyone! I probably don't need a truly accessible room; I was just thinking about where the scooter would be stored if I decided to keep it with me for the whole trip. Do they break down easily for storage? I've just contacted my travel agent to start looking for a room for me. I...

I'm reviving this thread. Has anyone used the accessible Minnie Vans lately? I was a little surprised to read that (at least when this thread began) that these vans were only available at certain resorts. Has this changed?

My daughter will be in WDW from late June to Christmas on an Academic Exchange Program, and while I will definitely be travelling there at some point (late September perhaps), I've been dreading the mobility issue. I have very mild cerebral palsy (that's not actually the problem, believe it or...

I'm not really too worried about price level at this point. I have stayed at POR twice, and I do love it. I've also stayed at AKL, and equally loved it, but for different reasons. I was just wondering about others' opinions regarding quiet choices. Thanks so much!

Pediatri, I know that my daughter will have access to discounted rooms, but not until she actually arrives and has access to the "HUB". I thought I'd take my chances booking something ahead of time and hoping that whatever we choose will fall under the possible discounts that she may have...

Thanks to everyone for their thoughts. We have stayed at both POR and AKL before, but POFQ sounds like it's smaller and perhaps better for my current mobility issue. OKW is one that I hadn't considered before, so I will take a look at that option as well! Margie

Hi, I'm new here. My daughter was just accepted into the Academic Exchange Program at Disney and will be a Character Attendant. She will head to Gainesville Florida in late Junel, spending some time at the University of Florida before the group moves to WDW. Her program finishes just before...

Hi! My daughter will be working/studying at Disneyworld for 6 months (July - December) as part of the Academic Exchange Program (we're Canadian). We would like to visit her, but not necessarily be in the parks (maybe MK for one day). I would love to spend days with a book and a drink outdoors...
