    Contactless payment

    You will be able to use your euros I'm sure. Over here some credit cards will allow you to make purchases without any foreign transaction charges. It's best for us to charge in euros as the credit card companies' exchange rates are competitive. Mrs TT

    We've booked trips from 1st January using this offer several times in the past (with gaps for COVID). We do a split stay, arriving towards the end of December and do two or three nights taking in the the Christmas decorations at the resorts then transfer for a week or so elsewhere. With a...

    Mobile Phones

    DS and his wife used the 3 PAYG Sim with their iPhone 13s when we visited recently. Worked perfectly (also while ashore on our Disney Cruise). Husband and I opted to put our phones into flight mode and used the free wifi. We had no problems at all except in the Vineland Premium Outlets where we...

    Free tix for Cirque - Drawn to Life…worth seeing?

    We also got free tickets and saw it when we visited in January. We've seen other Cirque shows and Drawn to Life is our favourite so far - we loved it! We'll go again the next time we're at WDW. As others have said, all the seats are fab. Mrs TT

    Plastic Tickets with Costco Package

    We're here just now and have noticed CMs giving out plastic tickets to guests at the entry touchpoint to each park who are experiencing issues with their phones. The CMs have a big bundle of them in their hands and activate them there and then. We're using old Magic Bands from a previous trip...

    Free cirque ticket time limit?

    As I said there were lots of dates listed past the end of our stay on Disney property but whether or not the credit would have been applied to these I don't know as I didn't try to book.. You'll be able to play around with it I'm sure. Mrs TT

    Free cirque ticket time limit?

    I booked ours yesterday via the link. There were loads dates outwit our stay coming up but I don't know whether or not our credit could be applied to those dates. Once I'd selected our seats I had the option of changing removing them from my basket. The credit was applied automatically so I...

    Has anyone found sensible car hire prices yet?

    This is Andy's site: - https://www.discountfloridacarhire.co.uk/ Prices will be steep just now for a trip in August/September next year but if our experience is anything to go by, should drop significantly in the 4/5 weeks before. I know I could have perhaps saved a little by going through other...

    Has anyone found sensible car hire prices yet?

    Totally agree. We've had 2 trips this year - DCL in September and New Year trip forthcoming. September trip was for DH, myself, DS, DDIL and grandson so booked a full-size SUV to cope with buggy, cases, travel cot etc with Alamo through Andy at Discount Florida Car Hire for 15 nights - £1714 in...

    Medical recommendation

    I'm afraid we have no experience of medical care up at Universal but have used Centra Care near Disney who were great. It's a while back now but I vaguely remember them offering to contact our travel insurance and settle up directly with them. I opted to pay up front and claim when I got home to...

    Anyone done Dublin Pre-Clearance Recently?

    Thank you @BadPinkTink that's good to know. I had just tarred all the countries I understood to be in the EU with the same brush and assumed that an ETIAS would be needed. I know that there are some exceptions with individual arrangements but really hadn't thought of where would be different...

    Anyone done Dublin Pre-Clearance Recently?

    My understanding is that for the time being there's nothing additional (bar any Covid requirements that may come back in given rising infection rates everywhere) as we are still able to travel across the EU freely within the 90 out of 180 days restriction. When we get to May 2023 and the new...

    caribbean beach resort

    We certainly weren't aware of any distracting noise from the Skyliner going over head (it's really quiet) and our room was very close to the flight path. It would have been drowned out by the noise of the AC anyway! Mrs TT

    caribbean beach resort

    We stayed in January 2019 and enjoyed it so much we've booked to go again for our next onsite stay in January '23 (DCL cruise first in September). We stayed in Aruba - a comfortable walk to the centre and very close to the Riviera Skyliner station. Enjoyed the theming and relaxed feel. We've...

    Anyone done Dublin Pre-Clearance Recently?

    Update for anyone else in the same situation: - DS finally managed to speak to someone on 'chat' yesterday. Successfully sorted out the return leg that they had rearranged with a 28 hour layover in Dublin 😱 (now the 4 hours we had on our original booking) and also asked about the connection...

    Anyone done Dublin Pre-Clearance Recently?

    Thank you @BadPinkTink. We've done this connection from Glasgow once before in 2018 and it was a bit of a nightmare however back then we were allowed to join pre clearance as we got off our early morning flight (we had a 5 hour layover) and the queue was ridiculous. The lady in front of us...

    Anyone done Dublin Pre-Clearance Recently?

    We don't fly until the end of August but are now wondering if the 1hour 30 minutes that Aer Lingus has allowed us to book for our connection is extremely tight! We've fallen victim to Aer Lingus' recent flight cancellations for our return journey and need to contact them about this as they've...
