    Which cruise (need ECV rental at port)

    We're considering a cruise out of Miami next Fall but I'm wondering about ECV rental availability. We used Apple at WDW and they were very easy to use and reasonable. How much do you typically walk on a cruise? I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and I can't handle too much walking. I like the...

    Cruise pricing and opening day questions

    I have looked on this site's opening day threads - not all dates are posted. Is there somewhere else to search? Does it break it down by deck/room/kids ages? I know that I can get an October date for around $4k for our family of 4 with 8 year olds. I'm wondering if late May, June and July...

    Cruise pricing and opening day questions

    I've read the opening day threads but it's confusing not knowing the difference in all the categories and not all dates having prices posted. When can the next opening day prices be expected? What was the minimum opening adult price for an interior cabin in the last opening day prices...

    Just booked for October!! Got a ???

    We went on a Tuesday last year - the week following yours. I waited until a few days before to buy our tickets at our resort to make sure the weather would be decent after reading lots of reports of rainy nights. Just an FYI, we went to MK on a Sunday (day of MNSSHP) when they closed at 7...

    Port Orleans French Quarter Q&A Thread, New for 2012 (thread now FULL and CLOSED)

    We requested an accessible room - the bathroom was completely private (door that closed) with the toilet to the right of the sink and the tub to the left of the sink. The toilet was ADA height with grab bars on the wall - that might be helpful to your mom. The accessible bathrooms are bigger...

    Best incentives for booking?

    We ended up cancelling our last cruise (thank goodness since Sandy made it miserable and the ship wasn't able to visit any islands). I had $50 for booking with my Disney Visa and the onboard credit Does any TA give additional incentives/oc's for booking through them? Thanks!

    Maximizing storage in a MOD 4adults 1 child

    Dh unpacked but I didn't unpack for myself or the boys. I did a lot of research on here before our trip and some posts indicated they used the drawers for their dirty clothes. Maybe take some lysol wipes if you want to use the drawers. We stacked carry on bags under the table and the big...

    Questions about Trip Insurance?

    We used it last October. I was so anxious about our trip and the cost of it that I was losing sleep. It was our most expensive vacation ever - 10 days with airfare, meals and tickets. Once I purchased the trip insurance through Disney I never worried about it again. It was cheaper through...

    Kennedy Space Center

    I checked with our Congressman 7 months in advance last year and at 6 months out I got a confirmation for them. His aide in DC called and emailed me several times and also told me the different tickets available for Washington DC . I found out about it from the cruise board - lots of people...

    Questions about going over Halloween

    There are some detailed posts from last year that include the time they arrived, where they went first (usually the dwarfs) and how long the waits were. Crowds will vary if you're there over a weekend or go during the week. There are also dance stages for dance parties with the characters.

    Questions about going over Halloween

    We were there 10/20-29 last year. Our CM at check-in said we picked the perfect time since the humidity lifted the day before and it was the first time she'd had her windows open in months. Sandy was lingering causing an overcast day at Epcot. We only had one brief downpour. The evening...

    Port Orleans French Quarter Q&A Thread, New for 2012 (thread now FULL and CLOSED)

    We spent 10 days there in October in building 2 facing the pool - we could see the pool but we weren't right across from it. There is a lot of landscaping that might make it difficult to see the kids at the pool. Building 2 was also where the boat for DTD departed from. It was close to the...

    Getting Sick from Eating?

    We've been back a week and I got sick twice while there. The first time was our first park day and we ate 3 meals - it was just too much food and was heavy on my stomach. The 2nd time was our 1st Epcot day. I ordered a Mimosa in Morroco - it didn't taste like the mimosas I've had before...
