If someone could do that, that would be great. This thread is far too busy as it is, without adding everyone posting their trips dates every ten minutes! LOL.

Once it's been set up by someone who can keep the initial post updated, please let me know and I'll link to it from the FAQ in the first post.

Andre

Me too!! My husband grounded me! I can only talk about Disney once a week and on Fridays!

Good news for you is.......it's Friday!!

 

[asherls]

I will be leaving at 1:30am and checking in to POR for March 17th -22ND.

Hopefully we get a ground floor. I'm going with my parents and kids and my mom made more on the reservations for ground floor but she called today and checked on it and they were really rude to her. She was being polite and wants ground floor because of medical reasons.

Good to hear that I'm not the only one who can't get enough Disney right now. My husband has left all the planning to me, all he cares about is how much money we are spending.

So I have another food question, ME should be picking us up from POR at 6-6:15 for our return flight home. We have a 5pm ADR for Boatwrights when they open, is this OK or should I cancel?

Received everyone's PMs and I am updated here in the next few minutes.

I think that's cutting it too close.

So.. I go to upgrade my dining plan to Deluxe.. the CM transfers me because there's a problem.

I get the upgrade and I ask how much would it be to transfer my reservation, as is, to POFQ. The new CM tells me he can't do it because they are using an expired code to give me the Deluxe Dining package. So, I say fine, I'll stay with what I have. (Was only thinking of POFQ cause it's smaller)

I go to online to pay my reservation in full and BLAM.. the hotel reservation is GONE... can not pull it up via my confirmation number or anything.

I call back and tell them it's missing. The CM calls someone and it gets fixed. I leave for lunch. I come back and BLAM! I have 2! hotel reservations now.. one for the original and one with the deluxe dining plan.

I call back and I am told that the system is having issues and I will see 2 reservations until they get it fixed. There is only one in the system for me. I say great.. I'll go pay on line.. The CM tells me that online payments are buggy and don't show up for all reservations. So, I just paid over the phone.. ugh.

But I am ALL PAID AND READY TO GO! Now I just have to wait... I don't like waiting.

*** Wow so there is a lot of guests that wanted to do this? lol The dates thing that is. I am working on it so any more to come in the thread in my signature. Then after that There is a format that would make it easier on me. If you can do yours kinda like the one below in the PM to me that would be very cool. Thanks

"Venomhatch- POR - 3/1 - 3/9"

That would be so very cool, it would make it easier to all the interest coming in on this project.

Thanks to all on this thread, especially Andre and Venom! While I had planned to stay here in May, the conference I am going to added 2 Disney resorts to their official hotels while previously they had none (I had booked POR on my own). In order to get the transportation benefits for the conference, I have to stay at one of these hotels. But I am definitely not going kicking and screaming because they added Disney's Beach Club as one of the conference hotels for a great price!

One day, I WILL see Yee Haw Bob!!

 

[BrentSD]

He leaves most of the planning up to me, but he's like a little kid (me too) when it comes to Disney so he loves talking about it and hearing about it.

I've done most of the planning while my wife will usually stop me from talking about it due to being on overload from it all. It's our first trip to Disney and I want it to be a great time for the family (and especially our kids)!

*** Wow so there is a lot of guests that wanted to do this? lol The dates thing that is. I am working on it so any more to come in via PM to me can they please slow for about 20 minutes. Then after that There is a format that would make it easier on me. If you can do yours kinda like the one below in the PM to me that would be very cool. Thanks

"Venomhatch- 3/1 - 3/9"
