    Old Key West Advice

    Something you may want to consider is elevators. The buildings are 3 stories tall and only buildings 62, 63, and 64 have elevators. At the end of a long day those stairs can be daunting. Especially with an infant and all that goes with an infant. You might want to request one of those buildings...

    Should certain groups be given priority to attend the parks?

    The only guarantee is in the phased closings. Resort guests are not restricted until a Phase 4 closure, which restricts ALL guests from entering. So up until a Phase 4 closure resort guests are guaranteed entrance.

    Is this possible? Booking question

    I don't know if anything has changed as its been a few years, but when we stayed DVC club level at AKL you could not choose Savannah View or Standard View. It was the luck of the draw when you arrived. This is because there are so few club level rooms for DVC at AKL. There were only five 2...

    Im going back!

    To help your partner get excited you might focus on the things about Disney that are important to her. As an example I had a friend at work who wanted to go badly, but her other half didn't. She mentioned he was into golf and I told her about the golf courses at Disney, and when she told him...

    How far in advance is too far to start planning?

    Not sure about Military Tickets, but Annual Passholders can add dining. It still becomes some type of package but does not include tickets.

    Fort Wilderness - RV and Other Rentals

    There are other considerations regarding cabin vs RV besides cost. Where in the campground do you want to be and when are you going are two that I can think of. The campground is huge - about 800 campsites and 400 cabins - so being near the meadows where the pool is or the settlement where the...

    Challenge ideas

    I once had a very short trip with my sister, only one day in the parks. We decided to ride a roller coaster (Test Track at Epcot) in one day. Was a great day, we managed to ride 2 rides in each park and have a meal or snack. Would also be useful for the quest for #1 or 2 above.

    Disney at Christmas- Pop Century or one of the All star resorts?

    I'd look at what park I plan to visit the most, and what resort has the best transportation to that park. That is the busiest time of the year and the time on transportation becomes more important. POP would be great if you like Epcot or HS, and it is not far from Animal Kingdom. Takes quite a...

    Tell me this trip makes sense and isn't (too) crazy

    We did something kind of like this in 2016. Flew from Arkansas to LA and went to Disneyland for a couple of days, then flew to Hong Kong for 5 nights, one of which we just left our stuff there and flew to Shanghi. Went first flight to Shanghi and last flight back to Hong Kong. Then went to Tokyo...

    Planning First Trip In December

    I second staying on property at that time of year. We just got back from our Christmas trip and we had a blast despite the crowds. We were a party of 9 and stayed at Fort Wilderness Campground. I had gotten requests from my party about fastpasses and made them at the 60 day window. The only...

    Trip planning with 7 or 8 people.

    Yes, but in this instance it should only be children on the sleeper, and depending on group make up maybe none. 4 adults are easily accommodated in the 2 queen beds. 2 children can sleep in the bunk beds. If only 3 children the one under 3 may be able to use the pack and play, or if 2 small...

    Just FYI there is a pool by the Treehouse Villas. Also they have 2 bathrooms, one in the Master Bedroom and one in the main living area. Also there is a washer/dryer in the Villas.

    Electrical Water Pageant

    I like the beach/dock at Fort Wilderness. Easy to get to - there is a boat from the Magic Kingdom, as well as the ones that circle between Ft. Wilderness, Wilderness Lodge, and the Contemporary. The EWP is a must for us every trip.

    Considering staying at Old Key West...for first time

    We love OKW and have stayed there many times. It has a relaxed atmosphere and is very charming. A few differences you might want to think about. OKW studio rooms are larger than most standard hotel rooms. They also have a kitchenette in the studio that has a fridge, microwave, toaster, and...

    Travel agent or not?

    I am in the process of planning a trip for 10 of us during Christmas week. All but three have been there at that time so know what to expect. I have not used a TA, but since I have been there 40+ times, don't really feel the need. I have made a secret group on Facebook where we communicate. It...

    Thoughts for a large group?

    We did a grand gathering some years ago. We purchased the quick service dining plan for everyone so they wouldn't be afraid of the food prices. Outside of that we did all the Grand Gathering meals together but otherwise everyone pretty much went their own way. Had a few other plans, like the two...
