    Recieved Free Dining PIN code for rest of year!!

    After several days of calling and asking if there was a code attached to my name, I called last thursday and asked, and could not believe it when they told me there was! I never got any emails from them and nothing in the mail. Although I've benefited from the public free dining other years...

    Headed to Meditteranean cruise in 4 weeks and freaking about pickpockets, etc

    Our family just returned from an awesome trip to Europe - Madrid, Barcelona, Paris, London. Before the trip I read all about the pickpockets and taking precautions, we talked to our teens as well. We live in the city and not the suburbs and are used to city life and mass transit, etc. We had...

    Questions about Seattle, WA

    For our August trip 2011, I scouted fairs for months - starting last November. Around January I found a one way ticket flying Seattle to MCO for $89+ taxes on Orbitz flying Delta. Then a few weeks later I found another one way on Southwest flying MCO to Seattle for $99 + taxes. That is about...

    Staying over in Seattle, Need Hotel Help

    Personally, I love the Edgewater - it is right down on the water. This is where the Beatles stayed back in the 60s. Also love the Inn at the Market (as in Pike Place Market) - very charming. I also love the Sorrento, I didn't realize you could only have 2 in a room there. The Fairmont...

    you mean everyone doesn't plan their vacations out a couple of years in advance? That's the way we roll as well. Sounds perfectly normal to me. Enjoying your PT report. Hope you have a great cruise.

    Alaska or Mexican Riviera?

    We are from Seattle, so we prefer vacationing somewhere warmer! We did the MR last February and loved it. I love the cruise at Christmas because you will get to escape our cold, dark, wet winter days for sun warmth and sunshine. Plus Disneyland at Christmas, though crowded, is magical. For...

    What's the soonest you should fly?

    We were on the Feb 20, 2011 MR. Our flight left LAX at 12:15 pm. We were not off the Wonder until 8:45 or 9 am and we were in the first group off the ship (although we found many others joined our group that had been just sitting in the lobby and had not arranged to be in the first group...

    MR Feb vrs. April

    We were on the Feb 20 cruise (President's Week vacation). We are also from Seattle and we LOVED our cruise weather. The day before we left it rained off and on at Disneyland, but was still much warmer than Seattle, my kids wore shorts. Sailing down to Mexico I can't remember the weather, but...

    I watched prices for weeks flying seattle to orlando in august. In January I found a flight there for $93 plus tax and grabbed it (that same flight is now $150 + tax) and when SW released their flights in February I grabbed tickets the first day they were available $99 + tax for the return...

    Help me pick MR return flight?

    We had a 12:15 flight out of LAX. DCL counts all flights before 12:30 as "early" and will put you in the first group off the boat - you need to make sure they know that at customer services. The boat didn't arrive at port until about 8am and then it was another 45 minutes to an hour before DCL...

    Look to cruise for the first time

    I agree that the 3 day is a lot easier to manage since you only miss 2 work days and if you can only swing the 3 day do it. You will still have fun and you will get a good idea whether you like cruising or not. We did a 3 day first and we loved it and did a 7 day after that. The 3 day was...

    Bought 8 day hopper

    We bought an 8 day hopper for a trip back in June 2008. I think we paid $200 per adult. LOVED it! Our best trip ever! We had plenty of time to see things, ride whatever we wanted, go back and swim at the hotel, rest, etc. See the fireworks, shows, go to the Animation drawing studio - every...
