Hi,


For First World Worldclub room, how do you ensure you get the room type with 2 queen beds? I tried to make a phone booking to ensure that I can confirm at time of booking but I’m told it’s fully booked for non-members. I told them that online it’s shown as still available, but they told me I can’t choose room type online, and I can only call up to make a request after booking, but there’s no guarantee of getting 2 queen bed, but this is quite ridiculous because the other room options for worldclub are 2 single or 1 queen, which doesn’t really accomodate 4 persons.

Can anyone who booked the 2 queen bed worldclub room advise me how to go abt it?

Hi,


Is it advisable to travel on those VIP coaches with personal entertainment system and massage chair or normal ones will actually do?

Any one coach recommendation? Transtar? Grassland? Fivestars? WTS? Any suggestion which is better?

It sounds very shiok right - personal entertainment, massage chair etc? But imagine this - you got a spoilt one (seat).... Sian Liao. I ever travelled on one \"personal entertainment on board\" coach and my seat is the spoilt tv lor.... Super turn off!

It goes without saying that 16/18 seated coaches are more comfy. But they come with a higher price tag. if I am not wrong, only transtar/regent star has 16/18 seater coach.
As for 25 seaters, most travel agents have them. I am a bit off touch, not been to Msia for 3 years on coach. But my bet is five stars or WTs have newer coaches?

I think for a family of 4, book the family room at Theme Park Hotel. I stayed there 2 weeks ago and it was really spacious with 2 queen beds. They run out of these rooms very quickly.


But my kids fight a lot so I was thinking it may be a better idea to get 2 deluxe / standard rooms side-by-side next time.

Hi Cherrygal,


Yeah, i’m also thinking of getting Theme Park Hotel Family Room, since confirmed is 2 queen bed. But I heard it’s slightly less convenient than First World from the Bus Station and the Indoor Theme Park? Or it’s actually ok?

I thought of side-by-side rooms, but they say it’s not guaranteed.

Hi,


Do you all usually just get the day pass or the annual pass?

I’ll be there for 4D3N, so thinking maybe should get the annual pass, in case kids want to go to the theme park everyday for some time, and we’re not restricted and can go in as and when we want. But I reckon 2 days is actually sufficient. Do you think it’s necessary to buffer extra days for in case the kids still want to play some more? I’m just afraid we might cover everything in 2 days, and so it’ll be wasted, especially since I may not be going again within the 1yr membership period.

Other than the theme park, I’ll only be going to the Strawberry Farm and Mushroom Farm, which I reckon won’t take too long? So rest of day will bump ard at theme park again? Or is there much shopping to do?

Have any of you tried the Water Park? How is it? Fun?

hi cherrygal,


btw, what room view did you have? Is the city/garden view the preferred option?
