My DH is not a big Disney fan so I'm thinking about taking my first solo trip this fall. I am going to make him go fall 2013 for my 40th birthday but I'm going through serious withdrawal since the last time I was there was May 2011. I don't think I can wait for the 2013 trip!
So I have some questions for those that have gone solo.
1. Even though I have no concerns, my DH is very worried about my safety. I'm trying to be as economical as possible on this trip so I plan to stay at a Value Resort. Do you feel safe when you travel to Disney by yourself? Are any of the Value Resorts better for safety than others? Can you request a room closer to the Lobby area for resorts that are spread out like Pop Century?
2. I'm considering either the 1st or 2nd week of November or the 1st week of December. Any positives or negatives about those weeks? I would love to see the Christmas Decorations so when do they go up at the parks?
3. I'm also looking at the meal plans. I'm hoping to find a deal where the meal plan is free. Are they worth it if you are solo? I'll probably just go with the 2 CS plan so I'm not sitting alone for meals.
4. I've been to WDW recently in 2010 and 2011 and have "done" most rides/shows. There's a handful I've missed and plan to catch this time. For those that have gone many times, are there any "hidden" gems in the parks that you can suggest? I'm just looking for new things to do.
I think that's all for now! I'm sure there will be many more questions before I book! Thanks in advance, I love this board!
