    Yes! EMH Was actually the best part of the trip. Without Genie+ (so expensive to buy for 5 people every day .. we only did it once) ... the queues get really long. So getting there 30 mins early actually gives you a big advantage (your family needs to be up and there early in the morning...

    It was pretty crowded. We had MLK weekend one of the weekends we were there and it was super packed. We were grateful that we had the 14 day ticket so most days it was just Early Morning Hours (or evening hours), and then back for rest and a chill evening seeing shows etc. Airport check is was...

    Hey! Just got back. Can't really believe that we made it there Covid free, stayed Covid free there and came back covid free. We had prepped for the possibility of getting it (which is why we only did Orlando and stayed for over 2 weeks in one location). Was looking forward to testing out the...

    we've been trying to get dining reservations, but because we missed the 60 day booking window .. there's not much available :( Going to see what we might be able to get much closer to the date (hopefully there are cancellations)

    There's still quite a bit to do. Still need to get the whole family together for a "Disney briefing" where we go through installing the app, running everyone through the it, finalising food and daily itinerary. We need to work out our packing (trying to put as much as we can into hand carry as...

    Absolutely, I'll message you when I'm there so you can choose. It's getting close! Managed to snipe (by checking daily) rooms at: - Riviera - Beach Club - Villas at Grand Floridian and - Old Key West A lot of resort hopping for us, but the family is older and we're on a mission to explore WDW :)

    Tickets for Australians?

    I bought tickets through a UK reseller (AttractionTickets) and managed to get a sweet 14 day ticket deal with park hopping and water parks. Worth trying.

Maybe we catch up in Feb when I'm back (I arrive back 26th Jan). That way if any one else on the boards wants to have a chat about...

    Can't wait to go! Just booked HeyMondo insurance (with COVID cover) with the 10% Black Friday discount. Managed to get one night at Riveria Resort (1BR) as well, so quite excited to see what the new DVC resort is like (plus try the Skyliner). It's been a long while since we've all done a...

    That's great! We've bought too. I've booked myself on an Annual Pass (Sorcerer's) because I'm heading back again in Sept 2022, but the rest of the family is on the UK Ticket. It's crazy good. And now they will be able to do more than me while we're there (Water Parks). Might be too cold for...

    Has anyone here booked UK 14 day tickets? They've just gone on sale, and I was wondering if there was a special trick for purchasing them? They look like an amazing deal (with Memory Maker and Water Parks included)

    It was the cheapest at the time. $1,500 return. We're a family of 5 (with pretty grown up kids) so we thought we could just rough it out with the long flight. Not sure if that's a great idea .. but it was kind of what we landed on. When we booked, there weren't many options around that price...

    Thanks. Just booked 8-24 January with Fiji ($1,600 return). Turns out pushing it later meant cheaper flights and accomodation in the US. We were able to get LAX-MCO on Frequent flyer points if we moved it later. We got VGF at the 11 month window as it's our home resort. We bought the minimum...

    Hi, Every time I get on to the Disney website to price out a Disney holiday lately I have been redirected to the "International" site which quotes prices in Euros. Does anyone else have this issue, or know a way to get USD prices from the website? I'm logging in from Australia BTW. Chris

    OKW for New Years Eve

    We managed to get a great car park at OKW. Dinner at Olivia’s. Celebrated a bit at the pool party with Minnie and Mickey present. And then went to DS. Managed to catch a bit of atmosphere (lots of outside entertainment) and then head back in time for countdown at our apartment with the live...
