can't understand why people do this . you have to get up early and drive there , queue up .............. and for what ? so you dont have to leave your bags in the boot of your car all day ........ so what ?

Also I still get to MCO 2 hrs before departure time . drop car off very quickly and check in with plenty of time

I bet you lot who check in at downtown disney turn up ay MCO earlier than me ? So you gain nothing , where as , I can have a lie in and spend the afternoon at Disneyquest

I get up and go over for about 9, have never queued in 4 years. I then go to water parks/shopping whatever and am at the gate about 30 mins prior to flight whereby they are already boarding. I don;t have to get to the airport early because im already checked in and bags have been dropped. I literally get out the car, through the airport, onto the flight and by the time ive got comfy the plane is being pushed back.

If you have kids then take them out of school, if you're a teacher have a bad back for a fortnight

Unfortunately it aint always that easy buddy. My boy is 14 and taking him out of school for 2 weeks is a no no

Please could someone help me with some advice, I am completely overwelmed, I want to book a Florida/Disney holiday for October this year, for 2 adults 2 kids (12, 6) need passes and would like to stay in a disney hotel (pop or music) but keep getting different prices, travel agents, or do it myself, also have a few Thomas Cook vouchers to use but not enough to take a bad deal just to use them, Please could someone tell me all the stress of trying to find the best deal will be worth it.....and where to start.

Yeah but 2 weeks before his exams is one thing, 2 weeks after they just go back is another all together.

yes but you must plan to leave the water park at least 2 hrs before flight incase of traffic etc . wouldnt think you would run it that fine . The majority of people would still arrive well over 2 hrs before flight time . So my option in my opinion is better , with at least an hour and half extra in bed , which helps the next day when you have to drive home in UK . Not to mention that some people have to pay for this disney checkin option . WHAT A CON AND A WASTE OF TIME !!

This site does them, http://ticketmania.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=2
and it has a free phone number 0800-310-1822.

There is no reduction on Disney 1&2 day tickets. Telephone and ask to compare the 3day with the 2 day!
