I vowed not to start my PRT until I bought my flight. Well it's bought! Thank you Airmiles for allowing me to turn 50 in my happy place! Round trip, insurance and fees only cost me $230!
I'm booked to fly out on my birthday from my local airport, 2 hours in Vancouver, then down to Santa Ana just after 2pm. I should be in my happy place by 3 if all goes well! On the way home, my flight leaves just before 3, so if I'm lucky, I might be able to spend 3-4 hours in the park before I have to leave for the airport
I have invited all my adult friends to come along. They'd need to pay for their own stuff, of course, but I'm the type of person who enjoys eating with friends and sharing good times. I also want to be able to do as I please without going back to the hotel early because the kids are tired.
I need only about 1100 more Airmiles and I'll have a 5 day PH ticket paid for. Then I'll upgrade to an AP when I get there so I don't have to worry about the PP+ (or lack thereof), and it'll still be good when my DH and I bring the kids back in June of 2017, and we'll save a ton of money that way.
So, on my check list I have:

So, on my check list I have:
- Book hotel - probably one of the three closest ones. I'll have to see who is the best deal in August.
- Book a shuttle - once I get the hotel chosen, I'll reserve Karmel and get that out of the way.
- Get tickets - 5 day PH with Airmiles and then I'll upgrade to a Signature AP at the gates.
- Save money for spending - souvies, meals, incidentals. The exchange rate is killing me.
- Reserve a birthday meal on the 13th somewhere nice in the parks.
- Get a MHP ticket for the 14th once they're released.
