Personally I think it’s very respectful that you don’t film talking too much etc whilst flying. Vlogging is a personal thing and not everyone wants to be included. So kudos to you- I feel like you always try to be respectful of others ❤
I prefer rooms that have wooden floors as well. Anything that isn’t carpet, actually. Love the view from your room. I love high floors and great views also.
totally agree...years ago we were going to replace carpet...when the carpet was pulled up and we saw all the dirt under it...we were SHOCKED and changed our mind.
Thanks for taking us along. I always like your vlogs. You put so much useful information in them 😊 I also prefer rooms without carpet. Carpet makes me feel stuffy (if that makes sense) 😅 P. S. Your hair looks absolutely gorgeous!
Sam--I stayed at Coronado Springs several times before they built the tower. The best location in the resort was in the rooms that were demolished to make way for the tower. The lobby by the gift shop used to be the check-in and Guest Services lobby.
Hi Sam, I love a long vlog! 😍 thank you! Wow, just a 5 night trip but just perfect to enjoy seeing beautiful Christmas season in WDW 🎄🎅Loved watching your travel day , looking forward to the series and seeing all the fun! 😋 xx
I am chronically fatigued and I have managed to stay awake for waaaayy too long because my body refuses to sleep while traveling. I basically passed out once, and that’s the only time I managed sleep 😂 the bus took a half hour stop and I didn’t even stir. So while I won’t be sleeping before our Orlando flights due to having to leave home at like 3am, I doubt I’ll be sleeping on the plane either 😂 Thank you for taking us along again! (I don’t think that was Donald though 🙈) Will be dreaming about those churros!
That was a fun Travel Day Vlog, I did the same journey with BA a year ago and I really enjoyed the food on the flight which isn’t something I would normally say! Terminal C is impressive but not as Iconic as landing in terminals A/B I think! Coronado Springs looks very beautiful but it seems somehow far away from anything else? I’m interested to see how you find it and how long the buses take to get to the Parks.
I'd love to go the Disneyland / Disneyworld but I think I would stress out with everything being so big and so far away from each other....not like DLP where everything is closer and more compact. Where Panchitos gift shop is reminds me of the lobby area in the Shining! 🤣
I have 2 Vernis pieces that friends often ask about and when I tell them the truth is fake, no one believes me. So now, I still like to buy kislux bags. However, it makes me sick to think that there are still a few websites selling fake products as genuine products.
Hi Sam! It was great to see you go from Gatwick - I personally prefer it over Heathrow mostly because I don't find it nearly as overwhelming and have always had a great experience with special assistance (they have a special assistance security area away from the regular lanes by the arrivals restaurants). Terminal C looks pretty nice, very shiny. The baggage before immigration sounds interesting, so that might be fun when I go in January, haha. I love Coronado Springs! It's my hotel of choice during solo trips - it definitely feels like you're at a deluxe resort instead of a moderate, even though I've not been able to stay in the tower itself. The sliders looked delicious! I actually never went to any of the table service restaurants or lounges there so that might be worth me going there. ^^ Thanks for the great video!
Great to know Gatwick works better with special assistance. I found the general airport experience much smoother than Heathrow's too :) Coronado was beautiful, and I'd happily stay there every trip! Thanks for watching and Happy New Year! Hope 2025 is a great year for you
Hey Sam! Wonderful vlog! I’m flying BA on the 22nd December to Orlando! Christmas at Walt Disney World! Excited! I don’t suppose you know how they grouped people with priority boarding for disabilities when you went to the gate at all did you? Also I did feel sad that you called the statue in the shop Donald as it’s actually Panchito from the Three Caballeros, but we will blame the travel day tiredness 😂
I miss the over the top disney decor in the rooms. I mean that room could be any hotel room off property. For as much as they charge a night it should scream Disney. Also Panchito is the rooster friend of Donald duck. So that is the statue in the gift shop
True, Disney seem to be moving towards more subtle theming now sadly. The Tokyo Disney hotels are all still very Disney-fied! And yes, can't believe I thought it was Donald!
Sam how do you find sleeping on a solo flight? I did Florida solo in August from manchester and I couldn’t sleep on the flight! I just felt so awkward and on edge sleeping next to people🤣

Wooden floors feel so much cleaner!
You are jumping time zones like no other at the moment!!! I hope you’re taking a breath occasionally! Another lovely vlog 😊
We ate at Topolino’s and Toledo’s on the same trip. Enjoyed Toledo’s much more. Only down side is it’s incredibly
loud with hard surfaces.
Ooh cool to know! Hopefully I can try Toledo's one day :)
Loved the vlog and your hair looks so cute! A really beautiful cut 😍
Aw thank you so much! :)
I love Coronado Springs, I haven’t been back since they’ve built the new tower but I’ve loved my stays in 2014 & 2017!
It's beautiful! Wish I had more time to explore it x
Oh man it’s so cool you got to do a trip out of the blue like this! Thanks for sharing!
My friend is on that flight Thursday. We’ll be in Studios / EPCOT Friday.
The room is amazing and what a view!!!
My big dream is to go there one day.
Looking forward to more videos!!!

Aww you're most welcome, glad they're useful :) And thank you so much! x
We love long vlogs Sam 🥰
And I appreciate your lovely comments :)

I did not have a good experience with British Airways. But looks like you liked it in PE.
Ahh sorry to read that. My return journey wasn't quite as smooth, funnily enough!

Awesome vid Sam! Also, I peeped a Duolingo sign? What language are you learning?
WeAAayyyy hi Sam 👋🏿 ❤ you look lovely btw
Thanks :)
Love the video. I'm a solo traveler as well and love strolling through duty free shops. Beautiful hotel.
I am flying premium economy to US in December, so im interested in your experience.
Hope you have a lovely experience :)
Sam how do you find sleeping on a solo flight? I did Florida solo in August from manchester and I couldn’t sleep on the flight! I just felt so awkward and on edge sleeping next to people🤣
At Newcastle airport you leave everything in your backpack at security, it's great. No hassle at all.
Amazing! :)
