    Week before Thanksgiving & MVMCP

    Hi all! It's been 3 years since our last magical trip. We went during Spring Break of 2010. During that trip, we stayed 6 nights at POP and had PH tix and Deluxe Dining. We basically planned our trip around our dining experiences so we would get regular breaks to eat, relax, and meet characters...

    POP vs MOVIES?

    We stayed at POP during Spring Break of 2010 and loved it!!! My kids were 4 and 7 at the time and just liked being at a themed hotel. Plus, POP has its own bus without stopping for pickups at other hotels. I believe the other 3 Value resorts share a bus route. May not be a big deal in May...

    I think you have to book the partner hotel through the HP package.

    May 8-13, 2011 Planning Advice Please :)

    Hello everyone!!! I have been lurking on the boards for weeks trying to gather info for our first trip to Universal. (Did the same for our first trip to WDW!) My head is spinning from all the information. We are probably going to purchase the Orlando Flex Ticket from Undercover Tourist...

    Better: 2nd or 3rd wk of May 2011?

    The lady in our AAA office told us she always heads to Orlando the first week of May because of the light crowds and good weather, so we decided to try it ourselves this year!!! :woohoo:

    Better: 2nd or 3rd wk of May 2011?

    Hi all, We are planning a trip to Orlando that will include 2 days at Universal, 1 day at SeaWorld, and 1 day at Magic Kingdom (since we're already down there!). I have some questions that I'd like information on, please! 1. In terms of price and crowds, is it better to visit during...

    I can't do online check-in or order customized maps!!!

    Thanks for the tip!!! I had actually seen that. I'm just hoping to save them as souvenirs of our trip and pick up park maps for daily use when we get there. Also, I forgot to say that if you booked through a TA and go to www.mydisneyreservation.com to do online check-in, you need to make...

    I can't do online check-in or order customized maps!!!

    with the help on Technical Support!!! I booked our package through AAA, so I had to go to www.mydisneyreservation.com instead of the standard disney site! It messed up the maps also, because I had it linked to my itinerary info that wasn't recognized on the main site. Oh well...

    I can't do online check-in or order customized maps!!!

    Is anyone else having this problem? We check in Sunday, so I thought I'd do the online check-in, but it keeps saying it can't pull up my information right now! With the maps, it says it can't create any maps now and to try again later. I'm getting very frustrated and wonder if it's just me!!!

    OH NO, I think I'm getting BUMPED!!!

    I just googled that number and there is a thread on these boards about people getting bumped because one of their ADRs was at a place that has been booked for a private party. I hope that's not the case with you, but just thought I'd let you know what I found. Apparently, when it happens...

    Dealing with kids and rain

    Don't know if there's one in your area, but Dollar General has ponchos for little kids right now. Bought one for each DD (36" and 47" tall) and they fit great! Also, we got some sandals at Stride Rite that are made to be ok in water but have the super cushy sole of a sneaker. The girls...

    Ponchos for Little Kids!!!

    Just wanted to let anyone looking for ponchos for their younger children/toddlers know that Dollar General has some that fit perfectly on my 36" tall 4-year-old. I struggled to find any that fit her at Wal-Mart, Target, etc. and was THRILLED to find TRULY child-sized ones that were smaller...

    To Tip or Not To Tip (long)

    This is waaaaaaay more accurate than the person who reasoned out a six-figure salary for a server!!! Maybe in resort towns, but absolutely NOT in 80% of the server jobs held. Even in resort towns, you get a mix of good and bad tippers. If that other figure were correct, people would be...

    To Tip or Not To Tip (long)

    Please believe me when I say I mean no insult, but this type of post is very frustrating to newbies like myself. I am a reasonably intelligent 40-year-old woman who came to these boards looking for information about Disney World. While I absolutely agree that posters should be respectful to...

    Umbrella Stroller or Regular?

    I would also vote for the regular stroller. A child that young CAN sleep in an umbrella stroller, but it's certainly not comfortable for them. The better rested your child is, the longer you can stay and enjoy the parks. Plus, when my DDs were that young, I would change their diapers in the...
