    Trip Report Spur of the moment 48 hour trip!

    Quick background: after having a very difficult 2016/2017 trying to get pregnant, we had our second child (another boy) in November 2017. Our last trip was February 2017, a quick four day trip that saw my wife, my then 5 year old, and my MIL head to the happiest place on earth. We have a five...

    Quick trip December 15-17 for Christmas decorations. ZIKA concerns?

    I am not a person who buys into media hype or is ultra paranoid, but I am concerned about this only because my wife will be 14 weeks pregnant if/when we go. We plan to fly in Thursday night and back to jersey Saturday night. Once day at MK to show our five year old the Christmas experience...

    Chef Mickeys?

    So I leave tonight and have all my dining reservations booked and couldn't be happier with what I got. I check into Contempory tonight and randomly checked last night and saw a random 730 ADR available at Chef Mickeys. This could be an amazing start to my four year old's vacation but then I...

    Need help choosing a resort for our WDW Honeymoon

    There is something to be said about being able to walk to Epcot, HS, and the activities of the boardwalk all from Beach Club. On top of that the place and pool are gorgeous. I've been to WL, Boardwak Villas, a couple mods, and have a split trip to contemporary and AKL planned, but my first...

    How busy should it be next week?

    I agree. Checking orbitz yielded the same results. Still some fast pass available, but big hitters like test track, 7 dwarves, etc are full. I think that's to be expected a week out though.

    How busy should it be next week?

    my family and I fly in this Friday Night and stay until Thursday. We have a split stay at Contemporary and AKL and just to check (mainly to gauge what's available and therefore how busy) I checked online and only Contempory and WL had rooms available during the time we are there. I think...

    Assistance needed- split trip

    Thanks for all the opinions! I actually just found out that I got a big promotion at work so we decided to go all out (as this will Be last vaca for a bit) and book three days at Contemporary to go with the AKL. Very excited to walk to MK.

    Assistance needed- split trip

    I actually did check WL and its 100 more a night than AKL. I was shocked by that. I'd more likely do full 5 at AKL.

    Wilderness Lodge Transportation

    We have stayed at Wilderness Lodge twice (once in January and once in March during busy spring break) and had zero issues getting to and from the parks. The biggest issue was any bus to downtown Disney, which on both trips we had poor luck with. The boat to MK was a nice change of pace and never...

    What is better value

    Silly question (I usually take advantage of the 25-30% off deals), but where do you find the free dining deals...and can you stack them with the room offers?

    Fast Pass + Suggestions?

    Thanks weatherlady! At what point do you think the fantasy land attractions become longish (over 45 minutes) waits during a spring break time of year? Extra magic hours at 7am this day, with park officially opening 8am?

    Quick Question about the New Fast Pass and staying at Swan/Dolphin

    Do you still receive the bracelet fast pass benefits staying "on site" at Swan or Dolphin as you would a proper Disney Resort (Poly/Pop/etc)? Will be difference maker in quick two night trip planning in April.
