Let The Memories Begin!
Each October, we attend our National Conference which is typically hosted by one of our partner cruise lines. This year, Disney Destinations was our host. Our conference began in Walt Disney World Resort and continued on Disney Dream.
As with any conference, there were general sessions, breakout meetings, opportunities to network, special events, and of course, opportunities to enjoy all the venue itself had to offer. In the case of Disney Destinations, that is quite a lot.
Come along with us on a Magical Journey through Walt Disney World parks and then sail away with us to the Bahamas on Disney Dream.
Arriving for Conference
The closest airport to Walt Disney Worlds Resort is Orlando International Airport (MCO). The airport is about 40 miles from the Disney resort. Guests staying at Walt Disney Resort hotels can utilize Disney's Magical Express bus transportation from the airport to the hotel. We didn't use their transportation because our son had driven to Florida and picked us up at the airport.
Coronado Springs Hotel & Conference Center
Once on Disney property, we headed towards our hotel to check in. The conference headquarters hotel was Coronado Springs which also has conference facilities like many of the other hotels on Disney property.
Check in went smoothly as Disney is very organized. The package we received at check in also included our cruise documents and baggage tags. Next we stopped at the conference registration tables to get our badges, conference shirts, and other information before heading to our room. (View more photos)
The first event for the conference would be in the evening. Bus transportation was arranged to take us to Epcot Center for our private function (more on that in another article).
Meanwhile, we decided to get something to eat, so we headed to Downtown Disney to check out the restaurants there. We selected one of their specialty pizzas with all the toppings. We all enjoyed the pizza very much.
