    flying down to disney... advice for claustrophobia?

    We are flying down to Disney for Thanksgiving. I get kind of panicky in the airplane (I am claustrophobic). Can anyone recommend anything, like over- the -counter medication to take? I was thinking maybe Dramamine would help? Or am I going to have to get something from a doctor before I go?

    Coronado vs. Port Orleans Riverside

    Sounds wonderful! With friends and family, it will indeed be magical! 7 days is the way to go... we wouldn't go for any shorter. Our kids were 9 and 13.... and they beg to go back again on a Disney Cruise. Our server at our meals was from Slovakia, and he was the BEST! Our kids still talk...

    Coronado vs. Port Orleans Riverside

    Yup, we knew that taking the step down to the moderates would be a bit disappointing. Not to mention that Wilderness Lodge was only 2 years old when we stayed there... everything fresh and new. Carribean just did not sparkle as much if you know what I mean. Ok... thanks for the heads up on...

    Coronado vs. Port Orleans Riverside

    :) Hey, thanks for all the advice everyone! We have decided on Port Orleans Riverside! Since we are going in late November, I'm not really sure how much swimming we'll actually do, so the pool is not the biggest deciding factor with us. The food court convenience and quality is important...
