    Blue Lagoon or Walts for birthday meal

    I would recommend trying both if you are there for 8 nights! We are there for 7 and are doing both with a 3 year old. I have never eaten in either and although the menu in Blue Lagoon doesn't appeal too much (we have premium and I am just using it at face value here as I don't like the set...

    French DLP site - under-12s free and up to 35% off

    Lol, that is how I convinced hubby as he didn't really want to go to DLRP again, wanted to save for Florida again. I saved over £600 and that included upgrading to GF at Sequoia. Not only that if you book with the French site and are interested in the meal plans, at the current exchange rate...

    French DLP site - under-12s free and up to 35% off

    I booked under the French site last month when they had their flash sale so I saved a fortune. They emailed me through confirmation (in French). I found the two times I called the CMs were very helpful and I wouldn't hesitate using them again.

    New Reservations Cancellation Policy

    I for one am not happy with this change. I don't mind putting my credit card down and even being penalized for being a no-show, but if I don't cancel more than 24 hours beforehand to still get charged, well I think that is pretty poor to be honest. When I go next year my son will be 3.5 and I...

    When was your first visit and how much did you pay?

    First trip to Disneyland was in 1991 with my parents. Only stayed for 4 nights at Anaheim International Inn, no idea how much it cost them. Went back to Disneyland in 2001 with my DB. First trip to WDW was August 2007 for our Disney Wedding/Honeymoon. 21 nights, 3 nights CBR, 4 nights POFQ...

    Sharing meals

    Thanks everyone for your replies. I hadn't considered sharing when using a DDP credit but I may do that at a TS restaurant if my son isn't too hungry. I found this a problem when we were in DLRP last month. I often bought him a full meal for dinner for him to turn it away in favour of something...

    Sharing meals

    I am going to WDW for 16 nights in Nov 2014 but thought I would ask about sharing meals. There will be 2 adults and one child who will be 3 and a half. We have the DDP but I intended to book some breakfasts OOP. However as portions are so big(think Tonga Toast) would Disney frown upon sharing...

    Just booked for November 2014

    Yep, I gave in. The deal was just too good to pass up so instead of the planned 2015 holiday to WDW we have decided to go next year instead. :thumbsup2 I have so far booked 16 nights at OKW with dining and tickets from 5th to 21st of November and I plan on adding 3 nights at Universal before we...

    What do people do if wanting to visit universal

    That's what I plan on doing, 15 nights Disney and 3/4 Universal with one of them being either Busch Gardens or possibly Seaworld. I don't want to take any days off my Disney stay as I always feel I need more time there.

    What do people do if wanting to visit universal

    Do you think 2 days is enough? I haven't been to Universal since 2007 so there have been a lot of additions and I'm wondering whether 2 full days would be enough? I initially planned on staying 4 nights (first part of trip) so that would have given me 3 days, however the most popular pass is the...

    Anyone done Universal Dining plan before?

    Hmmm thanks for that, maybe I shouldn't bother with the dining plan at Universal then, that would maybe leave my Universal booking more open then as I will be able to book accommodation with Expedia etc if I get a good deal.

    Anyone done Universal Dining plan before?

    Looking at 4 nights I think as a lot of things have been added since we last went (2007). We had 2 nights then and even then we didn't do everything we wanted to do and now we have a 2 year old so everything takes much longer.

    Our little thread of BIG Resort changes*OLD THREAD link on last pg. to new thread!

    Lol my husband has said he would prefer to try a different hotel this time so that leaves SSR and AKL still in the running, I think all the rest of them are much more expensive. What is drawing me to AKL is the theming and I personally feel the non DVC resorts have more of a Disney magic...

    Anyone done Universal Dining plan before?

    Thanks. I definitely don't want to eat fast food all day which is why I like the DDP at Disney. I thought the Universal Dining Plan allowed you to eat at actual restaurants?

    Anyone done Universal Dining plan before?

    I am trying to get an idea of prices for staying at Universal for 4 nights next year prior to 14 nights at Disney with DDP. I notice that Universal now do a dining plan and as I love the DDP I wondered if this would be worth it? I also wondered where (other than Universal direct) I can book...

    Our little thread of BIG Resort changes*OLD THREAD link on last pg. to new thread!

    Hi all Just after a little bit of advice really. I am looking to book our 2014 trip and initially I would have been really happy to go for POFQ, however it works out cheaper to stay at either SSR or OKW. So I picked SSR as I have never stayed there before and I preferred the interior. However...

    Quick question re Disney Magical Extras when booking

    Glad I asked, I assumed everything was listed twice because there are two adults! Shame, but I guess it works out about the same now, plus I suppose I get extras with Disney I don't get with Complete Orlando...:confused3

    Quick question re Disney Magical Extras when booking

    I have been pretty sure I was going to go with Complete Orlando to book my accommodation but I decided to check with Disney directly tonight. Disney is coming out at £176 more. However I would get 3% Quidco with them which takes Disney to only £85 more. Then I noticed in the magical extras...

    Thoughts on splitting stay between Disney and Universal?

    That is why I want to do it first. We did Universal at the end of our stay the first time and I agree, I really missed the magic of Disney so I would be looking at tagging it on to the beginning of our stay.

    Decided to do Disney next yr as well.. planning advice needed!!

    I have stayed at CBR, POFQ, GF and OKW. Hands down GF was the best out of the lot, mainly due to location, monorail access and well it is just somewhere that I knew we would never normally stay. we stayed 7 nights at Club level as part of our honeymoon, and before you ask, we were upgraded as I...
