    Sorry to bump this thread..... Has anybody experienced the free breakfast dining plan at the values and was it enforced as a breakfast? Thanks I have searched the forums and cannot find a definitive answer....

    Virgin Holidays

    If you are determined to book as a package now, I actually don't think that price is unreasonable. You might get closer to the 6k mark if you leave it for a while and book flights and accommodation separately, but with such a large group, I can see the temptation for a package....see if Virgin...

    Free Breakfast Dining Plan with Values

    Last year I booked 2 weeks at Sports in October 2015 and got the "Free Breakfast" Dining plan. Has anybody had any experience with this? Do they enforce breakfast, or is it simply just 1QS entitlement per person per day? Thanks

    airport hotels U. K

    £300!! That's a bit steep. Have you tried getting a quote from Holiday Extras and then hunting around for a slightly better rate and using the "Free If" guarantee. I have had a couple of deals at Manchester airport doing that! I also find Trivago extremely useful too!

    Expedia

    I have never booked a WDW trip through Expedia before, but as long as they give you the Disney booking reference you will be fine. I can't see this being an issue, especially if you pay them up front....just a little sweetener to the deal, quidco are offering 12% cashback on hotel bookings!

    Feeling stupidly homesick! (with questions about returning sooner!)

    End of April 2015 will see deals released. I am doing a "cheap" trip in October 2015 - 2 weeks in Sports with the "free breakfast" dining plan, which I assume will be 1 QS entitlement per day. I booked that in May 2014. We have done the full dining plan a couple of times and it was just far too...

    Magical Express definitely. Used it for the first time last year. It was organised, quick and fun :-)

    Miles plus money fares!

    Just got a reasonable discount using air miles on my October 2015 trip. VA from Mancheser £575pp plus 2000 miles. I think if I had waited a bit longer I may have gotten it a bit cheaper, but it was a price I was happy with and know it is booked :-)

    Using iPhone in US?

    Please whatever you do, turn your mobile data off. In 2011 - before free wifi in WDW my fiancée who is on O2 checked into Fantasmic and checked her email using mobile data. It was literally switched on for a few minutes. £30 was what it cost her. A similar amount of data was £15 on Vodafone for...

    Using iPhone in US?

    Hello! When I travel to the most magical place on Earth, I turn the mobile data off completely on my iPhone. This basically turns it into an old fashioned mobile phone. The charges for making/receiving calls and sending texts from the U.S. Will be available from your network. Some do deals for...

    Shaver sockets

    Do you really need to take the charger with you? My Phillips shaver can go a month with daily use before the battery dies. Plenty.

    Thomson Dreamliner - Oxygen

    They must have the provision to provide oxygen during the flight. It sounds as though your MIL wears nasal cannulae for oxygen delivery. The overhead masks would be entirely unsuitable for her. Just keep plugging away at the airline!

    Just curious, does anyone prefer a value or a moderate over a deluxe?

    We have stayed at all 3 levels. It purely depends on budget. We prefer the amenities at deluxe resorts and would spend more time at the resort if it were a deluxe. The values are good, simple and clean hotels, the deluxe resorts are better. but...... moderate resorts, namely POR vs SSR...

    Discount rates for emergency services

    I work for NWAS. VH offer a 5% discount on production of work ID/payslip. (also offered on NHS discounts.) Other than that there is nothing really that springs to my mind currently. I have always found it best to follow the tips on here. Book early and take advantage of early booking discounts...

    Laundry Facilities

    Have used machines at ASSp, POR and SSR. Found them all very similar, but SSR's were free! Machines were big commercial laundry ones, mostly top loaders but there were some front loaders. Easy enough to figure out, although the spin performance was a little poor. Got a load of washing washed...
