    What are your thoughts on this?

    My advise would be to think long and hard over this! Offering leftovers when you have them is one thing,being responsible for shopping/preparing meals for two extra adults always is quite another! Good Luck with your decision, Linda

    NO MORE free valet parking for DVC members.

    Just noted the emphasis on "IF". I apologise for forgetting that 16 years ago that we could not valet park until 1996.When we began using our points we always had a minimum stay of 14 nights-air travel involved-and full clean and trash and tidy windows were different.We now use our points...

    NO MORE free valet parking for DVC members.

    Why would I not beleive that "pool hopping" restrictions were imposed by DVC? I certianly do not have or need your obvious in depth knowledge, I was merely joing in on discussion, as a DVC member with a personal opinion of how my holiday experience is changing.As for security questions-all...

    NO MORE free valet parking for DVC members.

    Gosh, I have obviously aroused deep feelings! Actually,on reflection,my reference to "perks" was misguided. When we joined in 1994 we enjoyed;free valet parking;full clean on points quicker than now,and on trash and tidy day the beds were changed!;towels replenished whenever we needed;unreserved...

    NO MORE free valet parking for DVC members.

    It's always good to share opinions. We will have to agree to disagree. I will miss valet parking without any doubt.We use it every single day of our stay,and will continue to do so and part with the $12.

    NO MORE free valet parking for DVC members.

    Just a thought! What if....... whenever points are bought the member receives the "perks" that are current ALWAYS!!!!!!!This way there would be no unhappy members as the supposedly level playing field would be just that!That member would receive the usual membership card with appropiate "perks"...

    NO MORE free valet parking for DVC members.

    This made me smile! We stayed at the Waldorf Astoria many years ago and my FIRST introduction to being asked on the check to tip the restaurant manager as well as the server and his assistant!! We didn't!! I think we were much more brave back then!!! The servers 20% was enough.

    Where to eat? Arriving late to Beach Club?

    You could also consider Gaspirella Grill at GF, you can eat in or take out.I am almost sure last time we stayed there it was open through the night.

    Can you pool hop on rented points?

    Have to say in reply that we stay at BC/BCV almost every year with and without our extended family,and on each occasion have needed to show room I.D to collect towels and gain entry .I have also watched the pool servers question a guest without their wristbands!

    What to do at the airport if you have checked in on line

    Just read this post,and was wondering... My I.T. skills are only average! if I decide to do on-line check in(flying Virgin Gatwick-MCO)do you think I will encounter a problem I am unable to deal with? If I begin this and then realise I need to do personal check-in can I just stop on line and...

    What's up with the lakes? CBR especially

    MyDH andI were walking to the valet stand at the back of the BCV and stopped to look in the lake. Lo and behold was an alligator! we called for a CM who arrived to be totally non-plussed and said"your in Florida"..... they are everywhere!!! On a lighter note, whilst in Vero a few years ago,my...

    Why do I feel like a 2nd class citizen?

    Just a thought;do you have a special relationship with your guide? In all our years we have never had a call whilst in WDW.We have three contracts,and visit every year and gift points to our children,and mostly I am always pleased we bought into DVC.Sometimes though get the feeling that across...

    Why do I feel like a 2nd class citizen?

    Just browsing this very "lively" debate(as always) regarding DVC or non DVC, and I am amazed at so many abbreviations that I have absolutly no knowledge of!"AP/PAPs discount,MYW , TIW , what are these? and how on earth do you all find out about them? How do they benefit members( I am a member...

    Chef Mickeys dinner

    We had breakfast there last year-11 of us-6 adults 5 children. Been going to Disney for 30 years now,and have on occasion had some poor meals.This one was the VERY WORST EVER!!! The reservation was for 10a.m. at 10.15 they stopped cooking all sorts of foods,and began cleaning down stations-by...

    When did you first join DVC?

    We bought our first contract at OKW in 1994.Back then a buying incentive was free park passes for 5 years!Still think Disney should consider making the purchase of park tickets to members at a far better rate than the current one! Anyone agree? After all if you stay on site, you will always be...

    At Which Resort Was Your First Purchase?

    Enjoying reading all the DVC posts (I'm a newbie) and a DVC member for 16+ years. Can I ask why some forum people recommend buying small contracts rather than a single larger sized one? It can't make any difference to us now, we have three contracts and am not planning any further purchases, I...
