    Transportation for a cruise from Miami

    I'm cruising out of Miami for the first time this December to make up for our June cruise out of Port Canaveral (my asymptomatic daughter and son tested positive for Covid at the port). I did research and there is a Comfort Inn Miami Airport that has a free shuttle from the airport to the...

    Covid Testing for 3 year old

    Has anyone done the pre-cruise covid test required for those younger than 5 in Orlando? I know you can order a test from Inspire, take it 3 days before sailing, and mail it back. That process worries me a little. Myself, DH, DS, DD, and 2 grandsons (8 and 3) will be in WDW from May 22-30, and...

    AKL 2BR Standard View Lockoff vs OKW 2BR

    Thanks! I don't mind about the no elevator as long as it's only 2-3 floors up. Pretty sure the boys will be happy wherever we stay.

    well, darn.

    I called Member Services at exactly 8am Central last week and was on hold about 30 minutes.

    AKL 2BR Standard View Lockoff vs OKW 2BR

    Thanks! We eat breakfast in the room, and usually either lunch or dinner. I don't need to be near the QS at all. The boys will want to swim, but they'll be happy at any pool.

    AKL 2BR Standard View Lockoff vs OKW 2BR

    My question: would you choose an AKL Standard view (Kidani) or OKW? Would request water view at OKW. Originally planned for a Savanna View at AKL for my grandsons' first WDW trip (we were at Disneyland the day they closed for Covid). Unfortunately with the DVC 50% borrowing thing and only...

    Grand Californian

    I own at AKV and I've booked a two bedroom at VGC at the seven month mark twice for a stay during early March (spring break in Texas). In fact, I just booked our second trip this morning so I'm doing my happy dance!

    Question for DVC Owners whose kids have "grown up" and you go solo

    We joined in 2009 when our kids were 19(DD) and 15(DS). When we take a solo trip we always stay in a studio, but I miss the washer / dryer in the one bedroom. We still take family vacations but as DD is now 28 and married with a son (4) and another on the way we need to save our points for two...

    VERO BEACH Information & Adoration Thread

    Just changed my 7 night BLT res to 5 night BLT and 2 night Vero Beach (May 3-4, flying home May 5th). Got a studio and waitlisted for an Ocean View. It's our second visit to Vero Beach. Last visit was 2010 with the (now grown) kids. It's just me and DH this time!

    BLT Lake View room request

    I'm usually okay up to about the fifth floor as long as there are rails. I just don't want to get there and be on the 10th floor or higher. We're trying to work our way though all the DVC resorts (it will probably take us the next 20 years or so). I actually wanted BCV, but they were out of...

    BLT Lake View room request

    My husband and I are planning a trip for April 28-May 5 2018 and I have booked a Lake View studio at BLT. We own at AKL and have stayed there and at SSR. This is our first stay at BLT. Is there a specific floor / area that I should request? I'm afraid of heights and on our last family vacation...

    TR: And now for something completely different - a WDW Family did DLR *(new - 4/15: HK Disneyland)*

    Loved the video! 6 days until our trip to DLR and I'm watching the Anaheim weather forecast and making packing and touring lists like a crazy person.

    TR: And now for something completely different - a WDW Family did DLR *(new - 4/15: HK Disneyland)*

    Thank you so much for your trip report! I have been following along for a while now. I'm heading to DLR in 10 days with my DH, DS22, DD26, SIL and grandson (2yrs old and a huge Mickey / Toy Story / Cars fan) I had a hard time finding a DLR TR with a toddler, and really enjoyed reading about...
