My immediate family (DH, kids (13, 11 & 8) and I) have a trip tentatively planned for Aug 20-28. We are staying in a Family Suite with free dining. Since the suite can accommodate 6, I thought about inviting our niece (12) to come with us. (We've stayed in the suites before, we've traveled with DN before, we are comfortable with this.) I would ask her parents to cover the cost of her park ticket and we would handle flight, room and food.
I haven't spoken to them yet since the trip is still tentative.
Then Galaxy's Edge opening was announced and I added on 2 days at Boardwalk so we would be in walking distance. Obvious problem is now DN can't stay with us. I thought about extending our stay in the Family Suite but I selfishly want to be within walking distance to DHS. And I know DH would refuse to change our plans to accommodate her. He would say we just shouldn't invite her.
But I would still like to include her. Would it be rude to invite her but send her home on a flight when we originally planned to return?
This would all be spelled out when we extend the invitation. But knowing my DN and DSIL there might be hurt feelings that we aren't accommodating her for our entire trip. They may decline the invitation because DN might not feel comfortable fly home as an unaccompanied minor (she hasn't traveled too much) and then may be upset that she had to say no.
Any other options I've not considered?
I guess I'm just thinking out loud now.
