    Need trip planning advice: Easter is early in 2012

    Disney knows that families with children can, for the most part, travel when school is out. This means that there are rarely any discounts for Spring Break and Christmas. The main reason is, Disney does not need discounts to attract people during that time of year. Sometimes during June or...

    Perks? How bout morning newspaper at every resort

    As for the wi-fi, when staying at DVC Resorts on points, you get free hardwired internet. If have a Mac, you can use the airport card to create a wifi signal. You could also bring a small wireless router to hook up in your room.

    If money were no object, what would you STILL not do at Disney?

    I wouldn't go to Disney Quest or eat a California Grill. Ate there once and wasn't impressed.

    Best villa with 4 & 10 year old

    If you have a 4 and 10 year old, you will be spending most of your time in the Magic Kingdom. Bay Lake Tower is within walking distance to MK. Please you can take the Monorail to Epcot.

    Wake Up Call Needs Changing?

    I don't like the stitch wake up call either. I like the classic Mickey wake up calls. They need to bring those back.

    I have never used a dining plan

    It depends where you would like to eat. We usually make reservations first, then decide on whether or not to get the plan. I agree with you regarding the free dining. Unless you have 4 adults in a room, it usually pays to take the room discount and pay for the dining plan. If you like the...

    Best way to get to Hoop Dee Doo from Riverside?

    Bus to MK then boat will probably be the best. Just hope there aren't any crazy storms. Leave yourself plenty of time to get there.

    Auto Train

    We are exploring taking the autotrain on our ride home in August. Anybody know of any Amtrak discounts other than AAA? I can't seem to find anything but I'm sure there is something.

    Air travel

    You can check southwest.com too. They are starting service from Newark soon. Plus with them, you don't pay baggage fees. My in laws always use Jet Blue out the Newark. The low cost airlines generally do not show up on expedia, priceline, etc.

    Ideas for couple in their mid-20's

    My wife and I enjoy Paradiso 37 as well. The night we were there they had a small band playing music. They were pretty good.

    Help last minute trip

    You have to remember that Spring Break is in April this year. There will be huge crowds and no discounts. Also, I think the kids stay for free promotion is only for what Disney considers children, which is under 9. You would probably be better off booking a room only discount, then buying...

    club cool?

    If anybody has a Wegman's Supermarket by them, mine (Collegeville, PA) has a whole aisle dedicated to international items. When I was in there today, I was looking at the selection and you can purchase Mezzo Mix by the can. It's a little expensive ($1.69 for 1 can), but it is available. I'll...

    Boardwalk or Beach Club?

    Before staying at the Boardwalk, I would say hands down, Beach Club is the place to be. Now, it's a little closer, but my nod still goes to BC. That pool is just amazing. We stayed at BC for our honeymoon a few years ago and it is definitely in my top 5 WDW Resorts.

    Is Southwest part of DME?

    We used DME last May with Southwest and it was great. When we were checking out, the guy said we'll see our bags when we get to Philly.

    Question for those of you who drive down from the Northeast..

    We leave at 3:30am from King of Prussia and get into Disney at around 7. If you are looking to stop earlier, you can probably make it down to Jacksonville. As long as you stay at a better big name hotel, you'll be fine. I personally enjoy Hampton Inn. There is a great one in Jacksonville...

    Love Bugs...are they out yet?

    They were awful last weekend. My brother in law is down in Vero Beach and he said they can't stay on the beach more than 30 minutes because there are so many.

    There is a travel agents conference. To make up for the park closing early, there will be evening extra magic hours at DHS.

    On-Line Resort Check In: Is it helpful?

    We used our online check in for both our resorts last summer. I let them know we would be arriving early in the morning and when we got there, our room was ready. Not sure if it was a coincidence, but we're doing it again for our trip this week. I'll let you know if it helps again.
