    what are the current BOUNCE BACK offers?

    We checked out on the 27th so yours will likely be different than ours. I didn't book it b/c unless they don't do free dining next Fall it was basically about the same price as if you were to book online right now. It may have been a bit less but I really wanted to save that $200 for the beach...

    Cheap hotel close to Disney property...I mean REALLY close

    Try using Book it! We stayed 2 nights at the Regal Sun Resort through them for $59 ($68 with resort fee and taxes) a night and it was awesome!! It is RIGHT across the street from DTD, it was much faster for us to walk than drive there. Given the choice, I'd rather stay at that resort than on...

    Internet acess fee

    If you travel a bit or are like me and feel disconnected from the world if you don't have the internet, the air cards from AT&T and other wireless companies aren't a bad deal. I like to have the internet when we travel and those pesky fees add up so I dropped our home internet and got a card...

    Can the Disney Parks Princess dresses be ordered??

    Okay I know there are a few that are available online to order that are the ones they sell at World of Disney but is there any possible way to order the others? My dd wants the Ariel one for Halloween, I should've went ahead and bought it before we left but she couldn't make up her mind...

    Can you say claustrophobic! POP rooms - Had to change resorts upgraded Thankfully

    I think it all boils down to different peoples perceptions. I've learned to not read too much into hotel reviews online. Case in point, the Nick Hotel. I already had it paid for and started reading some horrible reviews on here. I had myself in a panic by the time we arrived! We LOVED it! We...

    Can you say claustrophobic! POP rooms - Had to change resorts upgraded Thankfully

    My family of four just came back from a week at the POP and we loved it! I am a bit on the clausterphobic side myself, but I thought the room was plenty fine for the little time we'd be spending in it. We were basically only there to sleep, shower or use the pool. The beds are smaller than a...

    Character Dining ideas

    I need to do my dining review but we did a lot of character meals on our first trip, probably too many but I don't have regrets. Our favorite was Tusker House in Animal Kingdom, great character interaction and the food was amazing! We did Crystal Palace for dinner and I can't say I'd recommend...

    Character Help

    The UP characters were in DHS after the Magic of Animation show. That is where we saw Frozone as well. That is unfortunately all I can tell you for sure having just came back. I believe Frozone trades out with The Incredibles every half hour or so

    Just Back - Clarification on Low Crowds

    We were there 9/20 - 9/27, it was our first family trip so I can't comment on crowds in the past but we followed Tour Guide Mike's plans pretty much to a t and did fine. To us the crowds didn't seem too bad and the longest wait time was 20 minutes for Toy Story Mania (fast passes were gone by...

    Driving straight through from WV - what time to leave?

    Thanks everyone for the input! Long story short, I waited till the last minute to do stuff - chalk it up to a lesson learned (only this is typical me, why do it today when you can do it tomorrow) :lmao: I don't honestly care that much about the dinner reservation - it's at 1900 Park Fare and my...

    Driving straight through from WV - what time to leave?

    We are heading to Disney Sunday and have decided to drive straight through - which hopefully won't prove to be a big mistake! We were thinking of leaving about 2 or 3 AM. I don't much care what time we get there, we do have a dinner ressie at 7:15 so as long as we arrive about 5 PM and get...

    Help! How do I change my ressie to get free Dining?

    Okay so we were originally going to go to Disney the week of Spring Break (back when I booked in November, I didn't realize it would be SB b/c my kids aren't school age). Anyway - I changed it to where we would be going September 20th - 27th and I've already paid for everything in full including...

    Do cancellations open up availability immediately?

    I have no idea when it would go into the system but I just cancelled a Preferred room at Pop Century for that week. Good luck!

    Penalties for canceling or postponing trip?

    Just an update (& a thank you to everyone for the info!) I called today & rescheduled for the same amount of days in September. I am 6 days out & was not charged any penalty fees. There is an actual price difference of $130 which I knew from checking around online but I'm still staying 7 nights...

    Penalties for canceling or postponing trip?

    Hi all, I hope this is the correct place to ask this but if it isn't, Mods please feel free to move it to the correct place! What happens if you need to cancel or change your trip dates? Unfortunately it is looking as though we are going to have to postpone our trip this month to a later time...

    Where to stay in Clearwater Beach

    I would also like to know! I just think Clearwater looks amazing & even if we only go for one day, I want to go! I've been to Cocoa Beach one time & I absolutely hated it. No offense to anyone, it just wasn't what I expected!

    These are so awesome! I'm going to pick one for my twins - they will love it! We are a little past our 30 day mark but that's okay! Thanks for sharing these with everyone! :flower3:

    Is DDP worth the price?

    I think if you really sit down & crunch the numbers you will find that you are still saving quite a bit of money even without ordering the most expensive choices on the menus. I totally understand, originally I had the exact same thoughts as you as hubby & I are more burger, fries type people...

    To upgrade or not to upgrade? HELP!

    Thanks everyone! I went ahead & did the upgrade and I'm already feeling a ton of relief! I don't feel as though I have to use every single credit because I did the math & I know that even if I only booked two more TS meals I'm still saving money in the long run. We are staying at the Nick Hotel...

    To upgrade or not to upgrade? HELP!

    I really hope that some of you will chime in & help me with this tough decision. We are going to Disney in a month - it will be my hubby, myself and our almost 4 year old twins. Currently we are on the Basic Dining Plan. I do admit I have a character meal booked everyday - I know it seems like...
