Can't wait till it is time to sail!! My 4th cruise and my 3rd with my DH - we are celebrating our 2nd anniversary. It's been a crazy busy summer and I can't believe that I am just now getting on board with cruise planning. Palo and Remy are booked solid ;o(.....hoping that things will open...

Looking for input from experienced DVC members. My husband and I have been members for 2 years now and we are incredibly frustrated by how hard it is to get reservations without planning 9 to 11 months in advance. We had hoped to use our points with less planning required since we don't have...

Hi just got organized enough to start looking at our plans for our Fantasy cruise on Oct 6th. The cruise is showing no availability for either Palo or Remy. What are the chances of availability opening up on the cruise? I was surprised to see that you don't have to pay for reservations when...

Thanks for the replies. I definately understand the difference between the studio and one bedroom in quality. I must disagree with the idea that the studios are simliar to resort rooms. The quality of the bedding, bed and furniture in the DVC locations is not at par with the quality of the...

Hi Everyone, Just back from a 4 night stay at Wilderness Lodge Villas. My husband and I love the resort but we were VERY dissappointed by the room we had. It was 3562 - a dedicated studio, at the end of the hallway parking lot view. The room was very bland with little decor and the worst...

If I buy a 3 day park pass with no expiration date this weekend and use only two days can I upgrade it in October for an annual pass that will be effective for 12 months from the October date? I am trying to figure outhow to get the most from an annual pass purchase price and we are only doing...

Need advice. We are getting into Orlando on a very early flight tomorrow and would like to head over to the ship as early as possible when I did my online booking the arrival times available weren't until after 2. Will we be able to board the ship early if we arrive early? What is the...

Thanks for the SWA weekday tip - I had just resigned myself to expensive flights with oil rates going up. Just saved over $350 on two tickets based on new pricing on the website compared to last weekends rates....WOW....BWI to ORD at $206 RT sounds right. The original costs were nuts. Maybe...

DH and I are planning to add on to our inititial contract purchase of 160 pts at BLT. I am still struggling with what the right options are though. Now that the new resale policies have gone into effect can anyone comment on the effects they are seeing in the market? Also, why is...

We are looking to add on a few more points to our Disney Vacation Club membership. We are considering buying an additional 50 -75 points for our membership and are trying to sort out our best options and deals. We are going on a cruise on the Dream at the end of April and we have heard that...

We are planning on buying additional points at either BWV or BCV to have October/November access for F&W festival as well. We got lucky and were able to change our BLT reservation to 2 nights in a studio and 2 nights in a 1 bedroom at BWV this year but we are not going to chance it again...

Well just as I feared - we had been hoping to be able to book either BWV or BCV during the Food and Wine Festival and are finding that it is VERY hard when you don't own there. So we are considering adding on 75 pts or so to our current membership (BLT). Is it still possible to buy pts for...

We are looking to book a stay in a 1 bedroom unit and are trying to compare the following. Beach Club, Boardwalk Standard & Boardwalk Preferred. Can anyone offer comment? Is the Boardwalk Preferred a signficantly better option? What makes it preferred? Thanks

Hello fellow board members - looking for your thoughts on booking our next Disney Cruise vacation on our own vs going with a travel agent. If you suggest a travel agent who are your top choices? What is the best way to compare the "perks" ie on board credits that each offer? Thanks

59 days until our first Disney Dream cruise - working on a 7 day eastern caribbean booking on Fantasy for next May!!! Can't wait. We've been on the Wonder twice....

Thanks for the feedback - We are just struggling with giving up the Jamba ressie.....should have gotten it right the first time. Wanted to be in the heart of things with resturants and bars - I am getting a little spooked by how far away Kidani is from the main lodge - especially if we hit a...

We are going on a 3 night cruise on the Dream then spending a couple of nights at AKL - when I first booked I only thought we were staying 2 nights - but of course that doesn't feel like enough. Just tried to add a 3rd night at Jamba house in a studio savahnah view - but no luck. The DVC...

I've seen so many posts about obstructed views and issues with category ratings for rooms I thought I'm getting confused. Can anyone comment on the cabin we've booked #6580 on Dream - will we have a water view or will we be overlooking someone elses verandah? Will people above us have a view...
