    Rides appropriate for infant?

    I hope this is ok to ask in this thread. But along the lines of 7 month old babies on rides, ours will be 9 months and I was wondering on how you hold your baby on the rides? Do you use a snugli, hold them in your lap or hold them to the side of you? This is our first trip with a child and...

    Segways spark suit vs. Disney

    The lawsuit doesn't have merit. The ADA forces companies to use reasonable means to help people with disabilities. Here, disney allows scooters and wheelchairs while not allowing segways. Disney is using reasonable means. If the plaintiffs argue that the policy brings indignities to the...

    Another stroller question

    I think we are going to take our "BIG" stroller as well. We have a Jeep Liberty limited urban terrain stroller. It is still pretty large when folded, but the only disney transportation we will have to use is the bus to Animal Kingdom. We are staying in Boardwalk villas and plan to walk...

    stuck on a ride?

    Expedition Everest! It was this past january on my first ride. We stopped at the top of the lifthill prior to the cave. 15 minutes later workers came and secured the train to the hill with straps and then had us walk up the track stairs into the cave where there was a door on the left. We...

    We need 5

    San Angel Inn has the best atmosphere in the park and the food is real close to authentic mexican, not tex-mex. Coral Reef would have to be the next best atmosphere with the aquarium, the food is good but not outstanding. LeCellier has very good food and you feel like you are eating in the...

    We bought in after staying in a moderate resort two years in a row. We stayed 7 night the first time and 10 the next. Our total bill for lodging for both trips was $3400. For $16000 we could buy the same amount of nights lodgin for 35 years (we bought boardwalk villas resort). We anticipate...

    DVC Question Help Please!

    There are no closing costs associated with sold out (closed) resorts if bought through DISNEY DVC. New resort = closing costs at DISNEY DVC and resale Sold Out (closed) restort = no closing costs at DISNEY DVC, closing costs at resale. That is why you are recieving conflicting reports.

    New refurbs (Snow/Splash)

    The operational updates for Magic Kingdom January 2008 no longer show splash mountain or snow white. Maybe it's just disney's website or maybe they changed their mind having refurbed last january as well. UPDATE: The disney site has once again added the splash and snow white closures.

    Another 2BR Question

    You would have to make a seperate reservation for the studio and there would be no guarantee that the studio would be connected to your one-bedroom. There might be a DVC discount on the cash reservation, but you would have to call to find out. It usually depends on availability and the time...

    Disney Financing for Point Add Ons

    When we bought in to dvc this year, I asked about that. They said that if you had poor credit they would just require a larger down payment and you would not get the preferred financing rate. Good Credit: 10% down 10.75% Bad credit: 20-30% down 11.75% When disney ran my credit they said...

    What is the math on DVC? Why does it work?

    I don't agree that you should never buy from disney direct. If you buy through disney the process is extremely fast and painless. If you buy resale you end up waiting months and hoping that you pass disney's Right Of First Refusal. If you don't you have to start over. Disney has their own...

    Choosing Your Home Resort

    "closed resorts" are indeed available through disney. My experience was very pleasant and once i told my rep that I wanted Boardwalk, he was very helpful in finding an available allotment of points and financing. I waited just 4 days for 170 points at boardwalk to come available and I was able...

    Disappointing Discounts

    Don't forget that disney has also been moving people out of Animal Kingdom Villas and into Deluxe accomodations due to the new construction. They have offered DVC members, that need to be moved, accomodations at both POLY and GF

    How do YOU tour the MK?

    The haunted mansion is scheduled to open the 12th, so I would make that one of the early attractions that you hit in the morning.

    Advice on WDW with an infant

    If you wouldn't mind, would you post a trip report when you get back? My son will be around 9 months old and it would definately benefit me to hear from others on their specific trips.

    Does anyone else find the Contemporary DVC odd?

    Too bad it's not going to be a DVC.

    Where's the free photo voucher?

    You should recieve a clear plastic folder with your keepsake luggage tags and confirmation information. These typically arrive 14-30 days prior to arrival. I would suspect the photo voucher is in that.
