    Annual dues

    Yes. I think selling it is the optimal solution. I think if you start the ball rolling, he might just need to follow along. I am very sorry to hear about your problems. Relationships with the important people in our lives is one of the most difficult things we have to do in life, especially...

    Annual dues

    Yes, but by doing this, doesn't she also give up her rights to the DVC Deed and Points and Use?

    Need to be UPLIFTED

    BLT is booking out very quickly for those dates. I have been trying to pick up 4 days in early November and not having much luck. I think you are more likely to get someone who could find you points if you go to one of the boards where owners advertise their points. I think a lot of the more...

    New 350 room DVC Tower coming to DL

    Absolutely great news. And, frankly, I am shocked that it is even possible, because I, too, heard that Anaheim was limiting Disney to 150 total Timeshare Units. Clearly, that is not the case with this building, AND, from the article, it seems to also have the support of the City leaders. The...

    Fire hazard in resort hotels!

    I recently was there and stayed in 3 DW hotels. In Jambo House I saw some DW workers (looked like maintenance), in the hall, tell a patron to go ahead and park their scooter in the hall. Of course, Jambo House has those little alcovesat each door, which are probably 14 inches deep, and when...

    Fire hazard in resort hotels!

    Apparently ScooterBug now has the exclusive contract with Disney, to pick up and drop off ECVs https://www.disneytouristblog.com/disney-world-ban-stroller-ecv-delivery/

    Fire hazard in resort hotels!

    Not sure if they are going to start enforcing the fire code and require scooters to be in the rooms, BUT, they just announced that companies would no longer be able to drop off scooters at Bell Services or pick them up from Bell Services. Patrons will need to come down to the front of the...

    Wait list success

    At Animal Kingdom, make sure you waitlist at Kidani (or Kidani AND Jambo if you can). Kidani has many more rooms than Jambo and is much more likely to have something open up. Both are excellent

    Disney Has Lost It's Way - An Article From The Federalist

    You can say that again. Disney, being the mega behemoth that is now dominating American pop culture in movies, toys, television, music, and everything else, is in no danger of collapse, ever. But, they don't seem to realize that there IS real value in the Disney 'Intangibles' in and of...

    Disney Has Lost It's Way - An Article From The Federalist

    Possibly, HOWEVER, Walt Disney NEVER had profit as his main motive. It was several steps down the list. And yet he didn't lack for money. Disneyland was a money making machine right from the beginning. Walt's main goal was to expand the human experience. To enjoy the magic and the fantasy...

    Lion King or Nemo show at AK? Which is better

    I fall asleep in both of them. Nice and cool. Great place to take a nap. HOWEVER, I have woken up more often in Lion King and stayed awake a bit more. And have done FOTLK more times. I absolutely could never stay awake in the Nemo puppet show, and what I saw was not my cup of tea, so I...

    DVC considering new resorts off property?

    Many people in the U.S. love the outdoors. I once worked for the forest service and in the summer I would stay in a ski lodge in Alta, 5 days a week, and come down to the valley on weekends. I have also worked with people who moved to Salt Lake just for the skiing, and hiking, and mountain...

    DVC considering new resorts off property?

    Caribbean is too boring. So many people have been there-done that. Harder and more expensive by air than a mainland vacation. Way too well covered by cruise ships, so it would be a tough sell. Why buy DVC when cruises are so cheap? And, where in the Caribbean would you suggest to build a...

    DVC considering new resorts off property?

    Yes. I agree that DVC should restrict itself Disney to park locations. You think they would learn after disasters such as Aulani. However, it has become clear that Disney and DVC is NOT always being managed the best way. It is very unlikely that one of the DVC locations will be in another...

    Help with first time booking

    If you can schedule at 11 months at AK-Kidani, you should be able to have your choice of either Standard or Savannah Views. But the Standard Views will probably disappear a few weeks later, and the Savannah Views within a month or two. BECAUSE, that is a very popular time. So get your...

    Resale Prices Down?

    BRV is an indicator of the price that Beach Club and Boardwalk SHOULD be. Except they are just more generally desirable for other reasons (LOCATION). What does this say about future desirability of Reflections. It will be at almost the same location, and the design info that has been released...

    Spending Less with Disney

    Thank you for your info about Bonnet Creek. One of my main concerns about staying there has always been the bus service. I haven't stayed there yet, because I have heard the bus isn't that great. So, how do you get around the poor bus service? Uber? Rental car? Do you take your private car...

    Spending Less with Disney

    How do you like Bonnet Creek? What is it like to stay there compared to, say, Saratoga Springs? I have a ton of DVC points and make multiple trips per year. But I also own Worldmark Timeshare and, when I try to get DVC propeties though RCI, they keep popping up with Bonnet Creek. It looks...
