You think so? According to reports, u are supposed to enter into the country through the state you told the V. O

I guess the bolded part even made it more complicated. Cos the other way round it could be an issue since he's traveling as a family, chances of them returning back looks slim cos it looks like no ties back home again

Wondering why it should be an issue really, its a family Christmas trip. On ties issue, by God's my company is doing well here and i applied with my coy for Family Christmas vacation.

Hi, i had same experience when my kids and I went for Easter hols in April.

Firstly fill your Florida address in your I-94. At POE tell them your destination is Disney Orlando but transiting through Newyork. Not an issue at all.

We also had 2 hotel reservations in Manhattan and Orlando. We stayed 2 days in NYC before leaving for Florida by road.

Road is far cheaper than air. Try booking the onward trip from Naija. 22-24 hours road trip but quite enjoyable as we got to pass and stop through many cities.

We used gotobus(china buses) and was about $90 per trip( the cheapest we saw) while domestic air was about $260 per trip.

Attached is a pics of their experience there. They had fun and the road trip was enjoyable.

Oh wow! great! That makes a whole lot of sense.

However I would like to ask, did u also made hotel reservation for the 2 days your family spent in NY and presented it with the main Florida hotel reservation? or you just walked in to book at NY

Also for the gotobus (China) did you booked from here or NY

Dremca:
what you wrote in the visa application when filling is what the cpb looks at the port of entry. Why not land there, and book a connecting flight to where ever you want to go.

we already booked our tickets months ago. Our concern is if its not issue at JFK PoE since our destination is Disney World in Florida

bigbus:


This is what I would do. But you can research more. Equally important is ensuring that the NY Hotel booking remains valid by the time you are at the POE, in case the CBP wants to call the hotel to crosscheck, and also so that you don't arrive to the hotel with no room for your family.

thank you.

I have also called the hotel to confirm the book. We currently have two hotel bookings. One for NY and the other for Disney world Florida.

That means if asked destination at PoE, we would mention NY and Florida or just mention NY only?

Sorry for asking, just want to be 100% clear

Wow. nice thread, keep it up and thanks for all the info.

Last year my family (myself, wife & 5yr, 3yr children) got our b1/b2 visa but we couldn't make the trip due to my busy schedule. During interview we mentioned Disney World Florida as this is has been my children's dreams.

Now, we're scheduled for the vacation in less than two weeks we already booked return ticket Lagos/NY (instead of return ticket to Disney World mentioned last year). Myself & wife would love to visit NY (booked hotel accommodation already) and after a week head to Disney World Florida (also hotel booking) because of our children.

My question: Do you think this may be an issue at PoE as to why return ticket Lagos/NY instead of return ticket Lagos/Florida?

seyewest:


State everything if possible.

thank you.

Those that mean I will fill the NY Hotel address instead of the Florida Hotel address on our i94 form since we are going to NY first?

State everything if possible.

thank you.

Those that mean I will fill the NY Hotel address nstead of the Florida Hotel address on our i94 since we are going to NY first?

This is a thread created to connect and link up with other people planning a vacation to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida.
It's to share ideas on visa application, hotel bookings, theme park tickets, theme park attractions and other tourism spots in Orlando, Florida such as Universal Studio.
Local flights and shuttle services ideas are welcomed.

Wow! what a coincidence. My family is going there too in less than two weeks for the first time. However, we are going through JFK (NY). would be nice we hook up or chat better through WhatsApp

bigbus:


Exactly!

Even Emirates to Orlando at 645k (or thereabouts) may end up more suitable than when they fly to NY (Ethiopian/Air Maroc at about 450k) and start adding local flights, plus taxis for transfers, plus checked in baggage. He can check Washington and other airports. Maybe can still find cheap tickets via other routes.

~If Lagos- anywhere is delayed and connection missed, the pax may need to buy a new local ticket in US sha. It's a personal opinion/strategy, based on past experience.

thanks for your response.

However, we already booked return ticket NY/Lagos. Since we planned to visit NY, then afterwards visit Disney World Florida with our children, hope this is not a problem with PoE because initially during interview we only mentioned Florida.

Secondly, we booked hotel in NY which after head to Florida (our initial plan during interview). Is it okay to fill the NY hotel on the i94 form and also let them know we're visiting NY for pleasure & Disney World Florida (for children).

seyewest:


Yes you can but before you do that you must purchase your onward plane ticket to Florida before leaving Nigeria just in case they wanna know and also don't forget to call the hotel in Florida to confirm if your hotel booking is it valid and inform them to expect you and your family.

Thanks for your response, our plan was to travel by road from JFK so as to safe cost. Do you think this will be an issue at PoE?

Even though myself and wife would love to visit NY for pleasure but our children want to visit Disney world, Florida. Since we're going through JFK, is it advisable we book two hotels visit NY for pleasure, then head to Florida afterwards? Bearing in mind during interview we mentioned only Disney world Florida.

Prompt response will be highly appreciated as we are going in less than 2 weeks

Hello house,

This tread is very helpful.

Pls, I would like to ask if it's advisable to fly in through JFK while final destination is Disney world Florida (it's a family trip) due to high cost of return ticket from Lagos to Florida (during interview a year ago we stated Disney World)

Hope thats not a problem with PoE
