My Disney ICP 2012

So i'm going to document my experience being part of the disney international college programme :)

Monday, 30 January 2012

so here's my first blog

So it's been just over a month since I found out I got a place on the Disney international programme for summer 2012 and I am sooooo excited the next 4 months cannot go quick enough. 


So since i found out i'd got the job working in food and beverage (i don't know on what park yet) i have literally told everyone who will listen and i'm sure everyones already getting sick of me but that isn't going to stop me. 


At the start of January i booked my flights my departure date 5th June at 10:20 from Manchester i'm doing a change over in Atlanta and then onto Orlando so i'll finally touch down in the sunshine state at 5:30 (hopefully no delays). 


However the first thing i find myself worrying about is the changeover i've never done one before and i only have 1hr 25mins to get from my plane through customs and on to the next one picking up and dropping of my luggage between that. Theres a few of us so hopefully we will figure it out. 


Its gone pretty quiet on the what we need to do next front after putting in my CRB forms and booking flights iv also paid for my medical insurance. Slowly ticking things off my long to do list. 


In February the Disney pack will come with all information and visa instructions thats when i reckon il get really excited. 


Lastly i'll mention all the people iv got in touch with already through Facebook groups. its nice seeing everyone getting excited and meeting people who are going to be on your flights i would highly recommend joining groups to start meeting people because then having a friendly face to meet when you get to the airport or Orlando its self is an added bonus and takes away the apprehension you are all in it together after all :)
