In this travel day vlog, we cover the airport hotel, flight, transfer from LAX and Disneyland Hotel checkin. We start out by arriving at London Heathrow. Where we pick up dinner from Pret A Manger and checkin to the Aerotel at Terminal 3 for an overnight stay before our flight. There we give you a room tour, share our holiday plans and how we got a cheeky upgrade to Virgin Atlantic's Upper Class.
On our full travel day, we make our way from the hotel over to Virgin Atlantic's checkin at Terminal 3. Upon arriving at the Virgin Atlantic/Delta checkin. At the checkin desk, I needed to show our 'Fly Ready' confirmation. You can complete 'Fly Ready' up to 72 hours prior to departure. This is an online tool that you'll be emailed a link to, or you can access it from the 'my booking' page on Virgin Atlantic's website. On the online 'Fly Ready' portal, I needed to upload our Covid19 vaccination certificates (from the NHS app), complete an attestation form and confirm our address whilst in the USA. After checkin, we pass through the private security in Virgin's Upper Class Wing. We needed to present our boarding pass to scan into the Upper Class Wing.
After getting some snacks and essentials from WHSmith and Boots, we relaxed in the Virgin Clubhouse, Virgin Atlantic's Upper Class and Gold Member lounge. We flew on an A350 (Rosie Lee) that was in excellent condition, in seats 10K and 11K (the back of Upper Class for this particular aircraft and layout). Onboard the flight we share an overview of the Upper Class experience and review the inflight meal. I also give you a seat tour, show you the inflight menu and what movies are onboard Virgin Atlantic in February 2023.
Upon arriving into LAX (Los Angeles), we utilise Karmel Shuttle for the first time to Disneyland Hotel. This took about an hour and half in traffic, but would normally take about 45 minutes outside of busy times. The shuttle was on the pricier side at approximately $180 for the two of us. However, most transfer services are around this price in the LA area. Since this one was recommended by Disney, and being less familiar with alternatives, I thought it best to book this one.
Arriving at Disneyland Hotel, we checkin to our Deluxe Room and give you a full roomtour. Once the bags were dropped, we walked to Downtown Disney to pickup our complimentary Disney100 lanyard and pin (an offer for booking through Walt Disney Travel Company on www.disneyland.disney.go.com). We also bought a Disney100 MagicBand+ each, which allows us to enter the parks, utilise Genie+ return times and enjoy some interactivity during select attractions and shows. We have a quick service dinner at the Tangaroa Terrace Tropical Bar & Grill, and take a look around the Fantasia Shop and Small World Gifts and Sundries merchandise locations.
