    Singapore Anyone?

    Right? It's some crazy incredibly minty one they justify as medically necessary or something. I assume it's sugar free. We are getting ready to fly home to do househunting over winter break (moving next summer) and I am DREADING that flight again. It's so long. I am glad we've been able to...

    Singapore Anyone?

    Well, no, gum isn't "readily available to purchase" either. You can buy at the dentist, not sure where else. You CAN bring it in, you cannot import it for sale. Definitely take a look at the laws. They have some heavy duty fines for things and drugs are a crime punishable by execution at a...

    Singapore Anyone?

    Hi there :) I am currently in my 5th year living in Singapore - my husband is here with the US government. I agree with the above - it is very safe & clean, but I have definitely seen trash & there *IS* petty theft - low crime doesn't mean no crime! BUT -- I have never felt more safe, in...

    Linking tickets & FP+ timing

    So, I have a room only reservation booked through Orbitz. My original plan was to buy my park tickets from Undercover Tourist BUT I now realize I waited too long as my FP+ window opens next week & I am pretty sure I can't make FP+ reservations without valid park tickets. My questions - 1) is...

    Is it that great...

    Last year we stayed at one of these for the first time - Boardwalk Inn - and LOVED it. This year we'll be staying at Yacht Club. My husband was just quizzing me on whether it is really worth the extra money (over a 5 BR at a mod) and even though I haven't actually stayed at a Mod, I said YES...

    Value resorts and connecting rooms

    We traveled late Nov/early Dec 4 years in a row staying at Pop, and we were granted our request for connecting rooms every time. We would have survived with adjoining, but connecting was definitely better (the first year we only had 2 kids, but they needed their own space so we didn't have to...

    Adding kids to my Orbitz res and getting frustrated!

    This site is awesome. I wasted so much time trying to convince someone on the sales chat with Orbitz that I could do this. He kept "asking" & coming back & saying no. I ended up booking, knowing I could cancel, went back to chat in the AM and the customer service person I got on chat knew...

    Orbtz and Adding Child

    The chat guy I talked to was like "there is no wholesale department." And he also gave me the wrong number for CS. Thanks for wasting my time, buddy! The lady I talked to on CS when I finally got the right number was very nice, but by that time the hotel was closed, so we have to try again...

    Orbtz and Adding Child

    I have been chatting with CS for a while now & am getting the same answer - you will have to cancel & rebook. Ugh. I tried calling the CS service number & was told (after listening to several really annoying "special offers" to call another number ... which ended up being the 800 number for...

    Summer Discount Public - Monday?

    oh, the fast pass question is important! If we book with Orbitz can we get FP at 60 days still? I was just going to add my tickets onto my Orbitz order. I do know you can call & cancel with Disney & get your $200 back - I did that last year when we changed resorts after the discounts came out.

    July 2015 discounts?

    I am pretty certain you cannot add the dining plan unless you book through Disney. I am on chat with Orbitz now trying to figure out if they can guarantee my room for 5 pp since I have 3 kids if I only book a room for 2 adults. I could save about $600 MORE on my YC rooms/tickets if I book...

    Summer Discount Public - Monday?

    I booked Yacht Club through the Disney site when the discount first came out. Garden or Woods view for $288/night, saved about $1000 on rack rate for 7 nights. Then I added 10 day tickets, since we're staying with friends off site for a few days after. I would have preferred Beach Club, but...

    Anyone know if discounts go live at midnight or in the morning?

    July 2015 discounts?

    I think there are individual PIN codes out (I didn't get one yet, boo!) that are linked to your name only. Conventional wisdom is that the discount will be available to the general public around 3/28, when the current discount for spring expires. I a getting so impatient - I just want to...

    Meet and Greets with Random Characters

    We had an awesome Evil Queen encounter, too - at DL I was walking my 3 year old around where it was quiet(er) and went to the little Snow White statue garden near the castle. She came out and my 3 year old had a fantastic time with her. At first she said "Mama, she doesn't look very happy!" but...

    Discount of 15%-30% for July room-only offer?

    From what I remember, the Little Mermaid rooms are usually NOT included, only the suites -- and the discount on those is low. Pretty sure the discounted Boardwalk room was cheaper for us than the discounted AoA suite. I know the suite is bigger, but we were thrilled to be able to stay at a...

    Do your kids need midday breaks at the parks?

    We never really did a big back to the resort break, BUT we left the parks relatively early when they were young. We started going when they were 5 & 3 and I was pregnant. It was easier in Nov/Dec when we were going because the nighttime stuff wasn't super late. Last year we went in the summer...

    July 2015 discounts?

    You got a deal in July already? I am waiting as well. Hoping for some good deals - thinking of a split stay.
