Hey Everyone.... I know we've been hearing about the Brits getting their packages from Yummy. I've been waiting patiently for Eric to send out our packages. (Okay, maybe not so patiently) Anyways, I emailed Eric and he said that we should receive them a month before we leave. Seems like it's cutting it a little close to me, but that's what he said. So, if anyone is checking their mail and expecting it, like me, we've got at least another month, if not more, to wait before we see anything. Maybe it will arrive earlier??? Here's to hoping.... Sandra
Are you serious Sandra...? Ah well thanks for doing that...at least i know that we can still expect them
Hey everyone, to get a head start on the packages photo copy all of your personal info..passport (even the pages with stamps already on it) birth certificate. Get medical insurance up to the first 4mnths, after 3 disney will cover you)and proof of the insurance. Flight reciepts. I dunno hope this helps a little. Cant wait to meet you guys.
I am indeed serious, Robyn. Seemed a little strange to me considering the others in our arrival group across the pond have received theirs. Thanks, Funshine. Photocopying is easy enough. Question though, where did you, or any other Cdns, get your insurance? I've been looking at different places, but just thought I'd see where everyone else is getting theirs. Sandra
Think us in the UK get ours earlier cause we have to make an appointment at the US Embassay before we can get our visa's to work and there can be quite a long wait for this, dunno could explain the difference! Jo xx
Heh, I was just about to say that too! We have to get criminal disclosure, passports, embassy appointments etc sorted, so it takes longer here then it does for you guys I think.
I looked thru my old package.... Gateway Insurance is the company that Disney suggests that you use. They are familiar with Disney. This is there address and phone number: Gateway Plan Administrator 1255 23rd Street, NW, Suite 300 Washington, DC 20037 toll free in the USA 1-800-282-4495 or 1-202-367-5097 Fax 1-202-367-5076 email: gateway@marshpm.com I'm trying to find a website... I can't find it anywhere.... If I find it, I'll let you know. Diana
Hey Sandra! How's it going? Are you getting excited? I sure am! I know that Joss cheap got insurance here before she left and said definately not to go with the disney recommended on becasue it was way more expensive. I'll try and find out the name of it for you next time I talk to her. that sucks about the packages, it would be nice to be booking flights and finalizing everything. Oh well, it will just make things that much more exciting when they finally arrive! Chelsea
Diana - the website for gateway is www.gatewayplans.com/disney yeah i think we get them cos as people said we have 2 get our appointment at the embassy approx 1 month before we leave, and we don't book our own flights, so once our visa is approved disney confirm our flight details, so maybe that has something to do with it. but if any of you guys wana know anythin thats in the info pack, just msg me xxx
Really?! Why wouldn't they send them sooner. I've been eagerly awaiting my Disney package and figured it would be here within a week or too. I was so looking forward to it getting here and being able to look at all the cool stuff it comes with. Thanks for checking, Sandra. Have you booked your flight? I booked mine this week. There was a seat sale on
hey Sandra I got my me insurance form londen drugs....cant remember the nambe though. Nicole another cnd down hear went trough gateway, and another girl got hers at bcaa.... YOu can pretty much get it anywhere. Talk to you soon
I got my insurance from RBC, it was a good plan with no deductible, lots of coverage. Not that I've had to use it.....whatever. I miss Canadian health care. The other stuff in your package is samples of some of the contracts you'll be signing, luggage tags, stickers for your pickup, things like that. I'm fairly certain that there's only one thing you need to fax into them before you leave. Which Canadians are merch? Megan - did your shifts get messed up from this morning? Christa
Hey Jo! You booked your flight already? I'm totally debating doing that, especially with prices going up after the whole jetsgo thing. Plus i can always change my flight, right? Who are you flying with and when do you get in? Hope things are going good with school, only 3.5 more weeks for me! I'm so excited! Chelsea
Thanks Everyone for the insurance info. Gives me some idea as to where I should be looking. Hi Jo and Chels... I have been looking at flights and fares, but didn't really consider buying my ticket cause I thought we were told not to do it until we had our visa, in case our arrival date changed. I know that I heard about the rising fares, as well. Although, that might be a good reason to hold off for a bit. If you take a great fare now, Disney will only give you that amount back next year... even if the fare has doubled. Holy crap guys... it's less than 3 months until we're there. Part of me wants June to to now and part of me wants June to wait a little while. Starting to get a little stressed out about money. I'm worried that I'm not gonna have as much saved as I wanted to. Stuff to buy, like new summer clothes, my plane ticket, my insurance... it's all adding up so quickly. After all is said and done.....it's still LESS THAN 3 MONTHS!!!! ttys, Sandra
i loooooove you chels guys i am so excited for you to get your butts down here we are going to have the time of our lives .. chels i put my sheet on for the extra 2 days off when you get here the 12 13 14 xo xo Jossy
