    New E-Book: PassPorter's Walt Disney World for British Holidaymakers

    A brand new e-book is now available in the PassPorter's Club ...
    PassPorter's Walt Disney World for British Holidaymakers -- A "Brit" Different View of Walt Disney World.

    Note: This new e-book is being first released to PassPorter's Club passholders as a thank-you for your fantastic support. It will be available for regular sales in the PassPorter Store for $7.95 starting on November 5, 2009.

    PassPorter's Walt Disney World for British Holidaymakers is a comprehensive, 260-page e-book covering every aspect of visiting Walt Disney World from the United Kingdom. It takes you through your entire visit, from the planning stages to working out the best way to get there and get around, with details about arriving in America, passports and immigration, duty-free allowances, driving in the States, and staying in touch while you're away.

    As well as looking at all the Walt Disney World resorts,PassPorter's Walt Disney World for British Holidaymakers has details on some of the hotels most commonly featured in British holiday brochures for Lake Buena Vista, the International Drive area, Kissimmee, and Universal Orlando. PassPorter's Walt Disney World for British Holidaymakers also explores the other Orlando theme parks that British visitors head to, with detailed information on the attractions and dining options at Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, Universal CityWalk, SeaWorld, Discovery Cove, Aquatica, and Wet 'n Wild. Two of the most popular day trips from Orlando--Busch Gardens in Tampa and Kennedy Space Center in Cocoa--are covered too.

    Among PassPorter's Walt Disney World for British Holidaymakers' other features are a look at the chain restaurants in Orlando, coverage of the shopping options around the area, and information on airport hotel and parking packages so you can start your holiday in a more relaxed frame of mind. Plus, handy clip-and-save currency conversion rate tables give you a guide to how much your pound might buy you in the States.

    PassPorter's Walt Disney World for British Holidaymakers is organized into seven chapters:

    Planning Your Holiday -- Planning before you go, finding information online, and reader tips
    Budgeting for American Prices -- Find out how much it costs, current conversion rate tables, and reader tips on saving money

    Travelling to the States -- When to go, Orlando weather, passports and visa requirements, travel insurance, transportation methods, choosing an airline, staying healthy and safe, driving in America, packing, and reader travel tips

    Staying in Style -- Descriptions of each of Disney's resort hotels, as well as information on the Disney Vacation Club and staying outside Walt Disney World

    Touring the Parks -- Information on the four major Disney parks from a British viewpoint, plus the backstage tours, water parks, Wide World of Sports, Downtown Disney, and beyond Walt Disney World to Universal Orlando, SeaWorld Orlando, Discovery Cove, Aquatica, Wet 'n Wild, Busch Gardens, and Kennedy Space Center

    Feasting and Snacking -- Understanding dining differences between the UK and America, details on Disney restaurants, and information on eateries at other parks outside Walt Disney World

    Making More Magic -- Magic for children, celebrations at Disney, Disney Cruise Line, shopping in style, understanding the American language, and reader tips to maximise the magic

    I want to offer a personal note of congratulations to Cheryl for this wonderful e-book! She began writing this book in early 2006 and this amazing book is the result of her hard work, research, and patience. I highly encourage everyone to read it, even if you're not a Brit, because you WILL find new things in it about Walt Disney World you never knew!

    Many thanks also to Carrie, our e-book editor, for getting this book into the hands of readers. She's done a great job with a huge project!
