How much is your 2016 Disney vacation going to cost you?

[gorkt]

I am looking to go Nov 4th-13th this year:

Renting points at a DVC - OKW probably - $3000 roughly
Flights ~$1600
Park tickets 7 night PH ~$1600
Food ~$1500-2000
Universal tix 2 days ~$1000 with transfers

So I am looking at $9K in total - ugh.....
It will be paid in installments so hopefully it won't sting so much.

$1794.67

$950 for souvenirs and tips (SUPER high. Planning on buying a lot of stuff)

Total = aprox $3400

Beginning of June 2 rooms at Coronado Springs, 5 day park passes, water park, and dining plan for 4 (2 adults a 13 year old and a 17 year old) $5750.62. Still waiting on better flights to come out from Southwest. Based on previous prices we are looking at around $950 for us to fly. We have, in the past, rented a car and drove. They just about cancel each other out once I factored in gas and food.

3 super duper-dee-DUPER expensive nights at CR over Spring Break (March 28) - JUST BOOKED like.... four nights ago on a total whim. $1800 room only.

Yes, I'm nuts. But you only live once, dang it!!

I'm taking my 16 year old son. We'll buy one-day park tix on site. And we'll drive there.... So I'm figuring around 3k once all is said and done. But we'll have the memories.

Staying at Poly and AoA in May - Poly is on my DVC points, my friend is paying for the AoA nights.
Staying at BWV in October, my DVC points.
Free tickets on SW for both trips.
Got an AP on my trip last month that will cover both 2016 trips.
Food & spending money ?

We are very fortunate and grateful this year. Myself, DW, DS 5 years old, DD will be 6 months. Used Avios points for flights from Seattle, paid $50 in taxes. 1 week SSR 1 bedroom, Xmas gift from my parents, I paid the $300 exchange fee they paid for getting the week trading thru RCI. 2 nights BWV 1 br via Orbitz, paid using points on our Aspire card. 1 Disney pass will be bought using Air Miles. 2 Disney passes $780. Will buy groceries and eat in 1 or 2 meals a day, total food budget $650. $100-150 for souvenirs.

2 adults, 1-6 year old, 1-2 year old
Standard studio bwv rented points $1492
8 day base tix $1019 (bought from undercover tourist and had amex promo)
Air $45 (using ff miles so just paying fees)
Food and grocery budget $1300
Spending and tips $600
Estimate for xmas party tix $225
Total $4680ish. Probably about $300 less in cost due to target gc deals and amex rewards
Taking advantage of one more trip before my youngest needs park admission and paying for buffet meals!

 

[meggiemouse]

6 nights at POP in early June through Orbitz = $695.78
6 day park ticket (no hopper) for 2 adults, 1 kid through UT = $982.85
$1678.63 so far...

Wild Cards:
Gas for 1700 mile round trip... hopefully cheaper than last summer... the $4/gal just about blew the budget!
Whatever lunch and dinner costs... we will keep it below $500 for sure. Doing affordable 1 TS and 1 QS per day. Kids will split meals with my husband and I and/or survive on peanut butter crackers and grapes like last time lol. Thinking of getting some Disney cards from Target to get 5% off our meals?

Hoping to keep it around $2300-$2500 total, but I'm not going to be super stingy either. It's our last trip for a while (our daughter is turning 3 in Aug, so it's our last opportunity for free entrance for her). We probably won't be back until Star Wars and Pandora is finished.

my partner and i are going in april for our first wedding anniversary! unfortunately our wedding will always coincide with spring break (we planned it that way - my family already had a disney spring break trip on the books) so it's an expensive and busy time to travel.

4 nights AOA: $840.38 (considering switching to the POP with the orbitz discount, not sure)
APs from our wedding
flights from Seattle for 2: $872.40
dining: $1200
shopping: $200
transportation: $200 (to and from airport, extra for taxis)
activities: $50 (behind the seeds)

total: $3162.78
YIKES!
we are used to having the dining plan so i'm definitely struggling to balance good eating with $$$$
