    Resort Help Please for Large Family

    Thanks everyone for all of the help. I am concerned about renting DVC points because I worry, with so many of us, that something will come up and we'll need to change dates, revise plans, etc. etc. Given that, two questions: 1. Are the discounts ever applied to the DVC Villas? 2. If...

    Pool Lengths at Universal?

    I'm smack-dab in the middle of training for a Half-Ironman, yet headed to Universal for a visit (I know, I know...Disney rules, but not for this trip). Does anyone happen to know how long the pools are at the Universal hotels? We're staying at Portofino, but I'd finesse a switch to Hard...

    Adventures of the "Moms" Panel

    I'm thrilled to see how many DISers have proceeded to Round 3. Certainly wish that I were among them, of course. But if it can't be me on the panel, well, I can't think of any better proxies :) Congratulations to all!

    Adventures of the "Moms" Panel

    Congratulations, Laura! Who knew that when you answered those first three questions, you'd be opening the door to such grand opportunities. Very exciting indeed.

    Adventures of the "Moms" Panel

    I've been reading through every page of this thread, getting more and more excited about the ever so slight possibility that maybe, just maybe, I might find out that I am one of the lucky few to move along to Round 3. If I'm not, so it is. It has still been such a pleasure getting to read...

    Need Quick Epcot Deluxe Help Please!

    Many thanks, Java and Bob. Was able to get BC for my dates, so switched over. Never stayed there, so I'm thrilled. I really appreciate the quick help. Hope my husband is okay with this choice, since we were planning on POR to save money this trip :)

    Need Quick Epcot Deluxe Help Please!

    We're going to switch over to one of the Epcot deluxes this morning. Should we pick Yacht Club, Beach Club, or Boardwalk? We have 3 kids - ages 11, 9 and 3. We're going in July. Any thoughts??? Don't know anything about these resorts so clueless on what choice to make. Thanks!

    New rides and motion sickness

    I had no problem at all with Soarin', but Everest wiped me out. Took me about 3 hours to feel human again. Never again...

    Paying room in full with Best Rate Prog??

    Here's how I got around it. I called and had them convert my reservation from a BRP reservation to an AP discount code reservation (using the code listed on mousesavers). Since I was then booked via phone vs. via internet, I was able to make payments on my reservation (and also, get out from...

    Can you cancel Previous BRP rooms?

    For those of you who have been told that you can't cancel without penalty, what about calling and switching it from the BRP program to the AP discount code from Mousesavers. I think most of us have been able to do that without a problem. Once you've done that, then you're under a 6 day...

    Question re Multiple Rooms Under BRP and re Passholder ID

    If you are booking more than one room under the BRP, do you have to book both rooms for the same number of nights? We would like to book one room for 6 nights, and the other only for 5. Also, if our friends are meeting us (and using the 2nd room), do I (as the passholder) have to be there...

    Best shoes?

    I wore them all day, and they were perfectly comfortable, with or without socks. I am one of those people who ALWAYS is complaining about foot pain at Disney. I've spent hundreds buying every shoe ever mentioned on this site. This trip was the only trip I've ever had with *no foot pain* -...

    Confused on new AP reservation system

    I understand that the rates are supposed to be the same whether you call CRO or book online, but that has not been my experience. At times, I have looked online and found no annual pass discount rates available, yet called and been able to get them. I have also had the reverse happen...

    BRP Change Fee Question

    I'm no BRP expert, but my understanding is that it's $50 - but that the fee only applies if you're change results in a lower overall cost. So if you're upgrading or adding a day, no change fee applies.

    BRP Change Fee Question

    Never mind. When I called, I didn't even have to ask to have the fee waived. The agent said, "I see when you booked, so no change fee applies." I guess the change fees must not have kicked in at the outset of the program, which explains why they did not mention those to me at booking.

    Info for any new AP holders booking thru BRP

    Thanks, Disneyfool. Glad I did. Was told if I hadn't gotten him on the reservation, they would not have allowed him on Magical Express. Sure appreciate the heads up!
