    with kids and luggage, I'd go for a pre-booked shuttle - have a look at rstransports or ezyshuttle for prices. Its by far the most convenient way, and will take around 35 minutes once you're through your arrival gate at the airport.

    oh, and make sure you check the room description before you pay for your Disney hotel, you might get it a little cheaper (they tend to display the upgrade room prices, at the Cheyenne this means nothing, the rooms are exactly the same and the hotel isn't that spread out that paying extra is worth it).

    just spoken to hubby and he does not want to fly- he wants to take the eurostar

    so if we book hotel now, are we guaranteed to be able to get tickets for the eurostar for the days we need or is it better to book as a package ?

    im sorry im so clueless, never been anywhere before!

    if you phone Eurostar to register your dates, you'll get the seats you want with Eurostar, as long as you are in a position to book as soon as they tell you your dates seats are on sale.

    thank you very much. once we've booked the eurostar is there anything else we would need to book, transfers or anything or when we get off the eurostar are we there?

    hi we live near cambridge, stansted airport is not too far, next closest would be london gatwick i think.
    im happy to travel by eurostar. we will not be driving over ourselves.

    correct me if i'm wrong but when i looked at flights easy jet only flew from luton (london airports)
    were going by eurostar were in southend so its only 45 on train to london to catch the eurostar at st pancres straight through to disney be there for lunch. just a case of weiging up waiting times at check in with cost of extra train travel to get the eurostar. :j (lol just actually finished reading posts your taking eurostar DUH! must finish reading 1st)
    :male: 2 Beautiful Boys :male:

    nope, eurostar takes you into the station at Disneyland Paris (ie right next to the gates of the parks). From there you can hop on a free shuttle bus to the Cheyenne, or you can walk it if you like (takes about 15 minutes, through the Village and along the river).

    Hi,we are looking at going for 4 nights/ 5 days from 25 th March next year. Just found out that whilst most of England not on holiday that week, the Italian, Spanish, German and Irish are on holiday then. DH worried that the park will be packed. Expect to be busy on 29 th as Good Friday, but what about the rest of the week? Thanks

    yes, I would say that would be a busy week, if both the Spanish and Italians are on holiday that week from school

    Hi,

    Could anyone tell me what is in the kids packs on the eurostar please?
    I am making the kids rucksacks to take but don't want to duplicate what's inside.

    Thank you


    I am not sure if this has already been written on the thread somewhere but the customer services at Disney told me today that by the end of the year the sequoia lodge is being renovated in the theme of Bambi. Sounds lovely.
