    Advice with taking friends

    Possibly too late a response but we took our son's friend way back in the early 2000s, we too had a letter from his parents but it wasn't notarised. And as you state because he had a different surname he had to have his own immigration/custom form and go through immigration separately so we...

    Disney discounted room only offer on UK-Expedia; ended 31 March.

    Hello and sorry to say but there’s still no sign of the Expedia deal, I’ve phoned customer services on a number of occasions but with no luck. Although the following might work for me I’m not sure if it will work for you, but if I did book on UK Expedia and then fill out a Best Price Guarantee...

    Disney discounted room only offer on UK-Expedia; ended 31 March.

    The Walt Disney Travel Company in the UK just released their room only offer for 2016, not sure if or when this will result in lower prices on Expedia but worth checking back every few days. The 2016 offer looks very similar to 2015's so here's hoping it eventually results in Expedia-UK...

    Vero Beach - Any recommendations for two bed condo

    I believe that many of the condo's which are close to the Disney resort all have a minimum rental period of 30-days, your choice might therefore be very limited and might also be miles away. For just 4-days and to be close to your friends it might be worth considering renting DVC points and to...

    Where to stay in London - 3 nights June 2016

    Booking on the Disney UK site?

    Hi, Sorry to disappoint but unless you have a European billing address then you won't be able to complete the booking form, as it states on the page after you enter your names/ages the following:- Sorry, we can only take payment within the European Union. If you reside outside of the European...

    Thoughts on DVC

    Another point to consider:- Over the contract term of up to 50-years you'll want to explore other destinations so you can either buy enough points to visit every 2 or 3-years or enough to visit every year and when you want to travel somewhere else then rent your points out. But be mindful that...

    Book UK free dining from US for 2016?

    Hi Jeapgurl - Yes, if your UK friends are planning on joining you then there should be no reason why they can't add you to their room reservation. And if you're not looking at sharing say a 2-bed at SSR/OKW and want separate rooms then your friends would need to make separate reservations as it...

    Booking on foreign website to save money

    I wonder if the main reason for such a pricing difference is due to the strength of the dollar and the weakness of the Euro; looking at the charts a Euro € was worth $1.339 12-months ago while today its only worth $1.111. That's a 17% drop in the exchange rate and to your advantage, so while...

    Booking on foreign website to save money

    Hi CalDisneyMomof2, With being so restricted on travel dates then you've really found an amazing saving and when adding the almost free flights and only needing to pay a 10% deposit right up until 30-days out then it's a no-brainer. Once booked I would be tempted to monitor not only the €-$...

    Booking on foreign website to save money

    Before reading your post I had never been on any of the NCL web sites, so out of curiosity I just quickly compared one of their last minute deals and the USA site does seem cheaper. So just to make sure can you please re-check to see if you get the same prices as those I've quoted below which...
