There's some reasons for the River country closure at Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_Country

Also the water parks close for about 2 months/8 weeks. Blizzard beach closed while I was there back at the end of October and is still closed for another week I believe.

This is just the yearly maintense, when Blizard Beach re-opens Typhoon Lagoon closes until March.

 

ok, i have my visa thing in jan in london.

are we supposed to wear a suit or just casual clothes, jeans etc..

thank you

 

Smart casual is the best thing they recommend, if you've got a nice trouser suit or something wear that, the apperance is very important, but also smile lots and be genuine and polite! You're showing you can convey the 'disney' image

 

I thought it's totaly unimportant what u wear. ??? I just wore Jeans and a turtle neck pullover. Got my visa without a problem.

 

I dunno then, everyone i've known to go and get accept wore smart casuals or business dress, are we talking about the Visa interview or the Disney interview? It doesn't really matter what you wear to the Visa interview, but the Disney one is pretty important i'd say!

 

I think we talk about the visa interview.
visa interview: wear whatever u want
disney interview: business style

Btw how much do u pay for the visa in the UK?

 

yep, was the visa one, done the disney one already.

so clothing sorted just need to find a book to occupy myself for the wait, im an xmas temp in waterstones, so shouldnt be too hard.

cheers guys.

we pay $100, which at the minute is £50.

 

Ah ok. Thx. ;D
Should be the same here in Germany. I just don't know which embassy I will go to ???cause I'll live in Scotland during the summer and will go back to Germany just 10 days before I am leaving for Florida.

 

I was at the embassy in Frankfurt the last time I had to get my visa. I thought I had to somewhat look professional and wore a WHITE suit. Great idea, because it started to rain like crazy and my coat then left black marks on my pants that never came out again
It really doesn't matter at all what you wear. I just remember it was a pain in the butt.
I paid $100 for something but I forgot what it was for. Plus my visa was a different one, so I am not sure if that's all you will have to pay. I remember back in the day I paid around $100 for my Q-1 though.

I'm paying about $1000 for my normal work visa for 2 years over there does allow me to stay for the 2 years and i can work for anyone tho

 

a UK visa is about £60 (or 65) something like that anyway

 

hey dudes
i just got my disney pack in the post today (wahoo!!) i have to fax back a copy of the acknowledgement form to the disney office in florida - how do i do that from a UK fax machiene?? do i just put the US dialling code infront of the fax number??? ive tried it but it doesnt seem to want to work!!

 

where was the fax machine? as some places will block international numbers, just like a bar on a telephone line

 

Usually it should work with 001 in front and then the area code and rest of the number. Unless it is blocked of course.

And yeah I paid $1000 for my 18 months visa as well and could only work at the hotel that had offered me the job because it was a training visa. Now I am trying to get a visa for Canada....I hate it!!!!!

damn that´s alot of money

 

worth every penny tho

 

All this visa malarky would be solved if we could just get the US to join the EU, or the UK to become a state in the US

One day...*evil laugh*

 

The way Bush and Blair are with each other, i think Bush would just have to click his fingers and Blair would jump at the chance,lol

 

Yeah the visa thing gets very annoying. First of all getting it and then paying all that money only to be sent out of the country 18months later and start all over again. ??? :

Hmm visas. I havn't been bothered to think about that yet! Eep :/

Okay, a couple Canadian questions hopefully someone can answer

WHERE do I begin to apply for one? How long does it take? Do I have to, like, tell Disney when I get it? How expensive is it? Is it hard to get (ie: Do you have to interveiw or anything to get one? Or prove that you're participating in an international exchange? If so, how do I begin to prove that?)

Hmm that's it for now I think! I suppose I should get a jump start on this, if, like a passport, it takes half a year to get! (okay, slight exxaguration, but only slight)
