We are flying out of Edmonton to Orlando (April 20-27) so will let you know our experience as I have been wondering if we will face delays too.

My son broke his elbow a week before our Disney trip 2 years ago. He was trussed up like turkey and must have been so hot but he didn't complain once. We did all the rides - on Big Thunder and Test Track, I made sure his injured side was against my body instead of the hard car. He...

You just pay the difference from a 7 day to 10 day and it is about $6 per day extra so about $18 each. It is so easy do. You just go to ticket counter and let them know that you want to upgrade your ticket. I have done it several times. I love Airmiles and redeeming tickets through them -...

Not that I am aware of or read about. I booked the companion flight to Orlando in April and was able to book the direct flight from Edmonton. The companion flight with taxes in came to $213 for round trip, direct flight both ways so I was very happy with that. You have to call and book...

On August 22, we were at Magic Kingdom, my son who is 6 and 50 lbs tried it first, his cousin who is 7 and 55 lbs tried it next then the older sister who is 13 tried it and it pulled out for her. She was shocked that it pulled out for her and the 2 boys were jealous. They tried again right...

I feel your pain. Last November, we had our disney trip booked then found out it was home tournament. I talked to the coaches and the director. Thankfully, our flight arrived back at 2pm on Saturday so we were able to make the 5pm game. We missed the first 2 games (Friday night and...

We were at Disneyworld from August 18-26. We did Magic Kingdom on August 22 and had the best day ever. The fastpass system was amazing. We were able to ride Buzz (2x), Big Thunder (2x), Splash (2x), Peter Pan, Haunted Mansion, Pirates, Space Mountain, wander around Tom Sawyer, Autotopia, Tea...

We just got back from Disneyworld and found the prices between Lego store, Wal-Mart and Target to be within pennies of each other. The only big difference I personally found was that I could use my AP to get 10% off at Lego store so that was awesome. Last year, during Thanksgiving week -...

The airline will put your luggage right through so you don't need to worry about anything in Houston - just your carry ons. Have a great flight.:)

Ignore the negative reviews - you are going to have a wonderful vacation. My son turns 7 next month and we have his 6th Disneyworld trip in 6 days. He has been going since he was 2 1/2. Here are a few tips that worked great for me: 1. Stroller - it was a lifesaver when you wanted to be...

My friend must have had a sixth sense about it - she ordered her Disneyland ticket a week before they went up. I was working towards saving for an adult one as I had redeemed for my son's ticket but when I saw the increased price, I decided to redeem for our Universal tickets so I just have to...

Glad that you found my post helpful. I found my timeshare on redweek dot com. Another option is to just rent a timeshare when you need it - Florida is so over run with timeshares that there are some amazing deals out there. I am very pro timeshare and have had excellent experiences with...

Originally, I had planned on doing Disney every second year but find it is such a reasonably priced vacation that we keep going back. I bought a resale timeshare 3 years ago that I get a 3 bed/3 bath condo so can invite another family to join us (timeshare was $500 to own and maintenance fees...

Our plan was to eat 1 meal per day at Disney plus any snacks that we desired. We would have breakfast before arriving at the park. We brought snacks (rice crispy squares, granola bars & fruit snacks) and water in with us. We would either have lunch at the park or head back to condo to...

We stayed on Katella which was about 2 1/2 blocks walk to Disney and I felt completely safe as a single mom with a young child. There are so many other tourists out and about that you are not walking alone. We stayed late and caught the fireworks and I felt totally fine walking back to the...

How I save on Disney trips: Airmiles, I get our Disney tickets from them - always months in advance. Over the last couple of years, I have upgraded our free Disney tickets to Non-Expiring with Waterpark & More so we can just do a day at Disney if we want. I watch for flight deals out...

At Hollywood Studios in November, my friend's husband was going to get fastpasses and he lost my son's ticket along the way. I had gotten the ticket for free through our airmiles rewards program so had not bought it directly from Disney. I thought for sure I would have to buy a new ticket...

Our flight is to WDW. We are flying Calgary to Orlando on August 18 with United for $500 return all taxes in. Our flight leaves Calgary at 6am and gets into Orlando at 2:30pm - we have a very tight connection so I booked directly with United knowing that they would take care of us if we miss...

Yes, I have added days. I have also added PH, Waterpark & More and NE. Last November, I even upgraded my 5 day Airmiles ticket to an Annual Pass because we are heading back to Disney in August.:drive: It is very easy to do at any ticket booth. I have upgraded at Magic Kingdom as I was...

We are going the same dates as you. We are flying out of Calgary on August 18 and returning August 26 on United. I watched the flights for months and when I saw the flight on United at $500 with all taxes in return, I grabbed it. Westjet was just too expensive for us. I looked at flights...
