    CoPilot Satnav?

    Just remembered to check back to give a review on how I got on with the copilot free app on the Samsung Note. My tablet doesn't have wifi, but does have GPS so used that easily enough. The free app, having chosen USA maps worked quite well, so long as I had an address to use. There didn't...

    4 days to go. Packing help needed please!

    Thanks. Have managed to put the kids clothes in the case on the spare bed - enough for 1 week (we're going for two, but planning to do laundry as it's going to be hard enough juggling 2 kids, a suitcase, 3 carry-ons, a double pushchair and 2 car seats without overpacking on clothing. Hubby's...

    Car hire

    We've booked through AffordableCars.com using our tescos clubcard points to save some pennies. For a full size 4 door, it'd cost you £227 + £50worth of TCP or for an intermediate SUV it'd cost you £238 + £50worth of TCP

    4 days to go. Packing help needed please!

    I've come down with a nasty sinus infection and just can't think straight. I haven't done any packing except for sorting out the paperwork and passports. What do I need to remember to pack for me, hubby, and two kids (4 and 10m)?

    i think we've left it too late!

    I think what you have to bare in mind is right now is PRIME booking time for summer hols, so of course the prices are going to be high. There is a chance the prices will go down closer to the date, but a lot would also depend on availability. Get good travel insurance that would cover you if...

    CoPilot Satnav?

    I'll definitely let you know how I get on. I've put it on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Tablet, which has Wifi and GPS but no 3G. As far as I'm aware, I'll not have any access to wifi whilst driving around Orlando, so it'll definitely be worth seeing if it works (assuming my son doesn't drain the...

    CoPilot Satnav?

    I've downloaded the free version of CoPilot, opting for South USA maps as the free set. I'll be interested to see how it gets on when I get out there in a couple of weeks.

    Help, name change

    I guess it depends on if you've already booked, and if you're that bothered about travelling under your maiden name. Have a consideration for the length of time remaining on your passport as well, as changing a passport to a married name incurs the same costs as renewing, so it might be...

    Wishes Dessert Party ADR Watch Thread # 2 - September 2013 OPEN!!!

    I managed to book in for the 27th February just last week for a party of 8, so doubt it books up that fast. I really would prefer the 6th or 8th March though...

    Sixt at MCO?

    Well I'm bringing my own car seats *** I can't justify the ENORMOUS expense of hiring two for two weeks when Virgin will carry them for free and I need them for the taxi down to the airport anyway! It's all fun and games - I'm thinking the best thing to do would be for my parents to take the...

    Sixt at MCO?

    Laura that reassures me so much! I've got a rental through them for 3 weeks (:banana::banana::banana:) time and getting from the plane to the villa is the bit I'm most stressed out about. Can you tell me what sort of shuttle bus was it? Bus-like or a mini-bus? Just trying to work out...

    Where can I meet & Greet Aurora?

    So, I named my daughter after a disney princess (can't be the only one amongst us!) She's called Bryony Rose (as close as my hubby would let me get!) and I really really really want to get a photo of her with Aurora. Where is the best place to do this?

    Purchasing Tickets

    Maybe minimise the Disney and don't overbuy on tickets? American Attractions had a 14-day universal/seaworld/aquatica/bushe gardens ticket for £172 per adult, which is the cheapest I found, otherwise you'd be looking at £80 for a 2 day ticket to universal (which is what we went for!)...

    Purchasing Tickets

    Oh no - How awful to have that hovering over your heads, and over the holiday as well. Having been through something similar with my husband, I have every sympathy with you both. It's so frustrating, especially being useless to do anything. What tickets are you looking at getting? I...

    Virgin flight tickets?

    Nothing in the post. Take your e-ticket to the check-in and they'll be able to bring up your reservation/ticket details from that. I'd double check all the information is correct on your 'manage my booking' page, and check-in online 24 hours in advance. xx

    Did you make a reservation for the Tomorrowland Terrace Dessert Party? Post it here

    Gave in to panic that the reservations for March would never open, so have booked in for February 27th for a party of 8. :) Not the 'final night extravaganza' that I was planning on, but looking forward to it none-the-less, and may change if/when March opens.

    Best beach for a beach day?

    We're staying in Davenport, so it's pretty much equal distance to either coast. Can anyone recommend a great beach to take the kids to, as I'm hoping to do that for one of our 'quiet' days.

    Villas

    Ah, we had a budget of £1500 so not too much beyond that - BUT it wasn't available for the full time we were out there, so couldn't go for it! :(
