    First Time at AKL - August 2019

    This trip will be my sister and I. We go to Disney World as often as we can, my husband and her fiancé are not big fans so she and I like to go together. Animal Kingdom Lodge has been on my bucket list since it opened but timing and price have never aligned for me before. I’m not...

    *** The Official August 2019 thread ***

    Just bought tickets for MNSSHP for August 23rd! Will be my third party, my sister’s first. We are staying at AoA 8/20-25 then heading over to Universal for a few nights. Not Star Wars fans so we are good with our dates missing opening of the new land.

    Wonder Southern Caribbean January 19, 2020

    I am really excited for this cruise! I have been wanting to do the ABC route for a while and I was pleasantly surprised by the prices. I will be cruising with my mom, our first mother/daughter cruise which should be really relaxing. My husband doesn’t like the beach and is sitting this one...

    Trip Planning - British Isles 9/2019 on the Magic

    Our rough plan at this point is to arrive a few days early, giving two days plus the arrival day in London, but this will be dependent on flights as they still haven't opened up near me.We are in Myrtle Beach, which has a very small airport and the airlines that fly in and out have not released...

    Trip Planning - British Isles 9/2019 on the Magic

    Thank you! I know I have written down some tips you had in another thread, this is definitely different from planning a Caribbean cruise.

    Trip Planning - British Isles 9/2019 on the Magic

    I am so looking forward to this trip...I have been wanting to go to London and Scotland since I was a child so the opportunity to go on a Disney cruise is just too perfect! The dates worked well with my work schedule and I like that it is a seven day cruise so that we have some time to see...

    Surprise Hurricane Evacuation to Royal Pacific Resort (with Cat)

    Halloween Horror Nights: There was some fun, but this was not the ideal trip to HHN I had planned...it is still pretty hot in September, so definitely not as nice of weather as we would have had in late October. I'm glad the tickets I bought were for any weeknight and not the October dates...

    Surprise Hurricane Evacuation to Royal Pacific Resort (with Cat)

    Thoughts on the hotel: Very nice and I definitely want to stay here again, preferably next time on a "real" vacation. I liked the decor, the pool area was great and I loved the quick walk to the theme parks. We didn't do the parks other than one night of Halloween Horror Nights because we were...

    Surprise Hurricane Evacuation to Royal Pacific Resort (with Cat)

    We originally were booked to go to Sapphire Falls in October for a few nights to do two nights of Halloween Horror nights thanks to the buy 1/get 1 free deal they offered earlier this year. However, I live in Myrtle Beach, SC and our governor declared a mandatory evacuation for the zone I live...

    Sept 8, 2019, Disney Magic,7 night British Isles from Dover

    I am booked with my husband for this cruise...longtime dream to see some of these places and a Disney Cruise IMO will be the most magical way to go. I’m not planning on fish extenders this time around as I know between my shoes and my shopping habits, I will be at maximum packing capacity.

    Dream vs Wonder

    I cruise in an interior stateroom so I really liked the virtual portholes on the Dream. I sailed on the Wonder after the Dream and I did miss that as I thought it was a great touch of Disney magic.

    Spin-off Parking fees... switching hotels

    Have you tried cruising? For me, it is the only match for Disney. I have done Carnival, Disney, Royal and NCL and had a wonderful time on each. I actually skipped WDW for several years due to frequent cruising. I have binged Disney World lately, but with the recent changes, I will be shifting my...

    Paid parking is coming to WDW resorts March 2018

    This is just so tacky. I have never had a single issue finding a parking spot at a resort and this is clearly just a gross cash grab. I have a long trip starting next week and if they try to add this on so last minute, I will cancel my two booked trips coming up where I have time to reschedule...

    Looks like no room privacy now.

    I actually would guess from the wording that this is done more for liability reasons of needing to check on someone for health reasons, etc than for security checks. As mentioned elsewhere, we go through many checks to get on the ship so a stockpile of weapons is not the concern here like at the...

    Disney Magic 9/8/19 11B, 2A $3658.32 (1680) (1680) no ins/trans/OBB I was in tears because after holding forever (not to mention 2+hours of busy signals) I accidentally leaned against my phone and hung up right after the cast member had picked the room. I was sobbing and then a few minutes...

    NEWS 5/17: Late 2019 itineraries released - link in post #1 (2020 watch thread will start soon)

    Hoping the pricing for the British Isles cruise is close to this year’s rates. The dates for next year work really well and I think it will be a good first international trip for my husband and I.

    March 2018

    I am booked at All Star Movies for March 23-29 to go with my sister. Looking forward to the trip, but it was last minute and I’m not super thrilled with hotel choice. Watching for any openings at Coronado Springs as I don’t want to pay moderate prices for a hotel without a gym. Deluxes are too...
