Good morning,
I am currently considering the yet to be announced 2020 westbound transatlantic cruise from Dover, EN to New York, NY.
My previous cruises have all been out of Port Canaveral and I feel very comfortable with my navigating that embarkation process and planning the logistics of the trip.
So, I am hoping that those in this wonderful community that have more experience with the WBTA cruise can provide me with tips, tricks, guidance and/or lessons learned to help me prepare.
Some questions I have:
How does Disney transportation work? I like using the bus system from the MCO airport to Port Canaveral since we usually can get on the first bus and get into the terminal before it gets crowded. We also like using the MCO Hyatt for the night before embarkation and utilizing the luggage service to get our bags to the cruise
Along those lines, we typically have been booking the MCO Hyatt through Disney for our pre-embarkation night. However, in the case of England, we will probably front load our trip by a couple days to play tourist in London before the cruise starts. Does Disney have any agreements similar to the MCO Hyatt for booking in London pre-cruise and, if so, how would it work adding additional days to the hotel stay?
Any suggestions or tips regarding transportation or things to do (or not do)?
I am not very concerned about disembarkation. We live in central Pennsylvania, so getting home from New York City will not be an issue for us.
TIA
