Okay this is probably a weird question but the last time I stayed at Pop during the pandemic there wasn’t body lotion in the room. I stay at other Disney resorts and they always have it so I usually don’t pack lotion but after staying at Pop last time and my skin being dry, I need to plan ahead. Any recent visitors to Pop know if the rooms include body lotion?
Is Skyliner access worth 166USD? We're a family of three and will be visiting Hollywood Studios and Epcot in May 2024 on 2 separate days (no park hopping). Should we keep our 3-nt Pop reservation or switch over to ASM and save some money? Is there a website that shows when the Skyliner closed down historically?
I posted the below in another Thread-it would REALLY help the situation by providing Guests an option from CBR Station besides Buses when Disney Skyliner goes down.
Disney should really provide a walkway from CBR to DHS and also from CBR to POP/AoA.
I would say that it is very unlikely that they ever will but there is some hope in that it was once thought that the Grand Floridian to MK Walkway would never happen.
Only problem is it is not allowed by Disney to do that .I have walked back and forth between Pop and Caribbean, I just opened up my map app and followed the blue dot through what looked like the easiest route. I walked through a cast member parking lot and across century drive. Wasn’t too difficult and probably only took 10 minutes
No there is no approved walkway but also no one is going to come track you down and come yell at you either. I have done it more than once and seen others do it as well. Heck I used to do it before the skyliner was made to check out the other resorts arcade and pin trading. Being stuck for who knows how long or taking a quick walk, we’ll you are an adult it’s up to you what you want to do. If you don’t want to cut though the parking lot you can also just walk on the grass by the roads that take you right there but that wouldn’t work well with a stroller.Only problem is it is not allowed by Disney to do that .
Ask any Manager at either Resort and they will tell you there is no approved by Disney walkway between the two Resorts.
Too much liability with the crossing Century Drive part I would think.

Being an adult is knowing that rules are in place for a reason.No there is no approved walkway but also no one is going to come track you down and come yell at you either.

Big time.I would also imagine that walking through a Cast Member parking lot if you're not a cast member is also against the rules.
Should be OK-I would just show the floats to the Lifeguards for approval.Can toddlers use their own floats in the pool (ie. a puddle jumper) or do they need to use Pop's vests?
We decided to take a quick, long weekend in February and also booked the preferred pool view after originally doing the regular pool view. The price increase was about $20 per night to guarantee being closest to the skyliner.After sampling a lot of resorts, we are heading back home to Pop in March. I put the extra $$ on a preferred pool view. I have stayed in all of the categories except this one. We stayed in a Nemo suite one trip at AoA; I loved the location in between the skyliner and the main building. 227 days til we go home again!! Until then, I will light my Pop candle and enjoy the smells from here . . .
Personally, I think transportation from Pop to MK is excellent, especially in the morning. There always seems to be a line of buses waiting to head to MK. Middle of the day, you might wait 10-15min as buses just aren't as frequent - and sometimes we hop the AoA bus if one is there waiting since it's such a short walk over to Pop, particularly preferred pool view rooms. We rarely stay until park close at MK so I'm not sure how crazy that gets.We decided to take a quick, long weekend in February and also booked the preferred pool view after originally doing the regular pool view.

Hoping for a fun trip -- we stayed at Polynesian over spring break and I'm a little anxious about the travel to/from MK but I think having a super easy trip to EPCOT and HS will even it out. I think the potential lower crowds will probably even things out given that our past trip was Easter week and super busy.
We hop the AoA bus also when we have the chance instead of waiting in line for the Pop bus. It's a great tip that can save a lot of time if you hit it right instead of waiting for maybe 2 Pop busses if the line is long.Personally, I think transportation from Pop to MK is excellent, especially in the morning.

Also, I really appreciate the bus queues set up at Pop, which seems to lead to much more orderly loading in the morning compared with when I stayed at DVC resorts in the past.
