    Is the Dining Plan Worth It Anymore?

    I found the flaw. You're not crazy, but neither am I, really, well not because of that. I have had to re-work the numbers slightly. The $1223.80 is for 2 adults and 1 child for 5 nights. My son is going to be 1 month shy of his 3rd birthday on our next trip. He is therefore not eligible for...

    Is the Dining Plan Worth It Anymore?

    It is currently on my reservations at $1,223.80. So other than saying that that is the deal I received, I cannot explain the discrepancy. I will check with my agent.

    Is the Dining Plan Worth It Anymore?

    Sorry, some information you don't have. I have two kids and their two aunts are tagging along on their own dime. So I am on the hook for paying for 4 total, and my two sisters-in-law are on their own. That is what the numbers are based on. Our 5 day Deluxe dining plan as was an add on to our...

    Southwest bookings

    We recently book our Feb '17 trip on Southwest from Austin to Orlando, direct both ways. I've been flying Southwest exclusively for years. No pretense to it, just a flight. It's great. My wife traveled for business on Southwest so much from 2010 through 2013 that we haven't paid for a flight...

    Is the Dining Plan Worth It Anymore?

    Alcohol aside, which is a considering, the deluxe dining plan would still meet your needs for that. We're doing DDP basically for the ease of use with our kids I guess.

    Fantasmic package for 2/5/17?

    I'm checking in the next day, on Feb. 6th, and I can't make reservations until Wednesday morning. So I'm thinking probably available tomorrow at 7:00 am est.

    Is the Dining Plan Worth It Anymore?

    In re: the above spreadsheet, the Hollywood Brown Derby is 2 entitlements. We're paying for a 5 day deluxe dining plan, but notice we're only having 1 meals on both Monday and Saturday. If I am correct, the last entitlement for the 6th day should be used for the 2 entitlement Brown Derby...

    Is the Dining Plan Worth It Anymore?

    Using all of everyone's helpful info, here is the spreadsheet I did based on the dining reservations I'm making Wednesday morning. As a disclaimer, we planned all of our restaurants independent of the dining plan concept. We had not anticipated adding it. This is, sadly, because we're real...

    I need help finding Sushi at WDW

    We enjoyed Kona Cafe's sushi on our last trip. I cannot attest to the others.

    How Disney Crazy Are You?: So I just sit here...

    You guys, I'm freaking out here. Yesterday, totally unexpectedly, we received out yellow luggage tags for Disney's Magical Express!!! We're still 202 days out! I was so excited. I couldn't believe it. Now, just need to not lose them for the next six months. I put them in my safe. I feel...

    So... how carried away do you get with your WDW trip planning?

    You might be my spirit animal, Steve. I mean, look at that spreadsheet. We even have the same name...

    How Disney Crazy Are You?: So I just sit here...

    I'm feeling a lot better that I'm not actually insane, or at least I'm not alone.

    How Disney Crazy Are You?: So I just sit here...

    Really there is no advantage. We're using a trip planner for the first time, so I suppose if a better deal comes along she will evaluate whether to re-book us on that deal. We did it because it's a big family trip with several family groups going, so it made sense to book as early as we could...

    Walt Disney World @ Mid-August

    We did August 7 - 11 in 2005. It was hot, and it was humid. But we're from south Texas, so it was kind of a break from what we're used to. That time of year in south Texas it's typically 102 to 105 and 90% humidity and heat indexes in the 110-115 range. Heat index today, for example, is 108...

    How Disney Crazy Are You?: So I just sit here...

    So, we're all booked, just over 200 (216) days out. There's obviously nothing I can do for a while regarding plans, i.e. dining and FP+ reservation. But I still log in, every day, and just look at my Disney account and check that the reservations are still there. Literally, I just sit there...
