    Question for all the annual pass holders?

    Are they 'obliged' to offer that rate? No. A discount must be available on a new reservation for them to apply it to one that has already been booked. In general if you can book a new reservation with a discount you should be able to ask them to apply it to your existing trip.

    Question for all the annual pass holders?

    Passholders typically get the leftovers and the AP rate is often blocked out on weekends. Book early with a general public rate and do the happy dance if you get a discount in October as these are pretty slim.

    2018 Military Room Rates

    It is not a 40% discount for the dates I checked--more like 35% in the Deluxe properties. They have scaled back on the percentage, and availability was pretty slim for the dates I checked. If you find something better do the deposit.

    Booking issues on WDW website?

    Pop Warner rolls into town the first full week of December, and room blocks come out before then. Disney Value and Moderate resorts will be gone for Dec 1-10, 2017, and probably Nov 29-30 to Dec 8 2018. Usually if you get a confirmed reservation that will be the price you pay as discounts are...

    Sanaa Bread Service

    I ONLY order the bread service. Not much else on that menu appeals to me. My friends love Sanaa so it works out, although I feel very full afterwards. The Mango Chutney is my favorite; I would put that stuff on ice cream. lol

    Seen them live? How does Happily Ever After stack up to Wishes?

    I've seen HEA a couple of times and they are amazing; Wishes was old and tired and needed to go. However I have spent so much time looking at the projections on the castle that I haven't seen any of the fireworks. Another trip is coming up soon and this time I hope to actually catch the fireworks!

    All-Star Resort's love them or hate them?

    My issue with the All Star resorts are the groups. Way too many groups and never enough responsible adult supervision. Just prefer to avoid them for more than one night.

    AP resort discount exclusion list

    It varies and no discount is ever across the board for all resorts and all room types. Usual discount blockouts are AoA LM, Villas at GF, BLT, Polynesian bungalows. Passholders get the 'leftovers'. Don't count on an AP rate, and there are times when there's no passholder rate for Friday or...

    Breakfast at BOG--splitting meals, will this be enough?

    For MONIMA: CRT is two table service credits on DDP; BOGR B'fast and lunch is Quick Service. The two can not be combined unless you are on the Deluxe Dining Plan, which does not split credits between TS and QS.

    Breakfast at BOG--splitting meals, will this be enough?

    It was "just right" for two normal sized adults. The pastries are not refilled and are quite small. My son, at age 17, was a slim and fit runner of about 150 pounds. It was definitely NOT enough for him. We had breakfast at 8am and were hungry for lunch by 1pm.

    Do Disney travel agents get you better deals??

    There's a lot of risk when an agency negotiates a group block, which is why most don't do it--even the large ones. What has been put out here is a rather simplistic explanation and doesn't go into what is commissionable and what is not, as well as the terms and conditions of the specific...

    Convince me to stay off property, and without a car...please

    Offsite? Perhaps for a longer stay in a really nice hotel. Offsite with no car? Never ever ever. Remember parking is $20/day at the parks.

    Free Fall Dining?

    A vacation package has a combination of 8 letters and numbers. It will begin with a 1, 3, 6 or 8 depending on how it was booked. A dining promotion will require tickets. For the last couple of years it was a minimum of a two day park hopper.

    Split party between Cabana Bay and Royal Pacific and FOTL pass....

    Your kid, you can put him on your reservation. If he is a legal adult there will be an Extra Adult charge when more than two adults occupy the same room. The hotel EP is 'unlimited'; the purchased one is generally for one time through. I WOULD put my kid on my reservation in case something went...

    Hotel advice

    Universal Hotels are great. Express Pass is a huge benefit though and only available at Portofino, Royal Pacific and Hard Rock. Been to all three several times but I prefer the Hard Rock. I just like the atmosphere over there and they play great music. Whatever you pick you are sure to have...
