Booking a week trip on April 1st for July 9th

Sorry, if I am posting in the wrong thread, btw.

So I am planning my senior trip for July 9th - 14th ish... Thing is, is my parents are not going. I will be 18, however. Are hotel reservations 18 and over or 21 and over?

Are any of the Disney Dining Plans worth the extra hundred dollars? We're going to stay at one of the value resorts.

So it's a little under 100 days in advance on purchasing rooms.. Do y'all think there is a possibility of getting dining reservations for Be Our Guest? Or should I not expect as much?

Also, I know it isn't TOO much of a difference because, heck.. It's the summer.. But which theme parks should I do in order, with one day for each theme park. July 10th-13th. (Sunday-Wednesday)

It's 18. I've had to put my daughter's name on a room when we needed more than one and wanted to get the ap rate on both of them. She was 18 at the time. I did use my credit card. I'm not sure how that will work for you. As for BoG, we've gotten ressies two months before and two days before. You just have to check it every day multiple times.

Yea that is another thing... Will I be able to use one of my parent's credit cards when I am there, with my signature?

Perhaps some kind of "written letter" saying I have permission to use it would be safe?

If it's normal for you to use their card, it shouldn't be problem. I suggest you get a Disney gift card and load it with enough to cover your main expenses in case there's any problem with the charge card.

I normally use their card, but not normally for purchases this big.

That's an idea. Thanks!
