2022 Trip Planning Thread

[pigletto]

We've booked for January 2 - 12 at Coronado Springs I was just looking at flights to check prices but Southwest doesn't have all our dates out yet, booo! I'm feeling hopeful the quarantining will be over by that time.

We’re looking at the same time frame at AKL Kidani village. We used westjet credits for our flights. I would have preferred flying out of Buffalo as it’s so close but I just wanted to use our credit and get something booked before prices went sky high .

Hi !

I've got the green light from my wife to book a 10 nights stay at Disney World for the first week of March !

I can get a direct flight with Air Canada from Toronto for 450$ TX IN. Would you wait for a better price or move forward and book ?

As someone from Newfoundland $450 sounds like awesome. And direct omg there’s a dream haha. I have no concept on flights from TO but I’m shouting take it take it now. Lol

I don't think you'll find a better price. I just booked last week for March 10 -19 direct flights out of Montreal, and paid $460 taxes in, I looked today and it's now $580.

Take it! I do like flying out of Buffalo but Toronto would be a lot easier. If I had the chance I would pick Toronto but because of costs we usually fly Southwest.

Oh yeah I'm trying to get on top of the flights as soon as possible as well. I'm a bit worried they might go insane once people start travelling regularly again. Is this your first time at Kidani? You'll love it! I've stayed there twice and both times were magical.

I don't think you'll get a better price for that time of year out of Pearson. Take it. Last time I flew in March it was over $900 each.

Just booked flights for March Break through Aeroplan. Their flexible cancelation policy made it an easy decision! Direct flights from Montreal.

I am hoping to stay onsite at a resort with Skyliner access. I love the bubble. However, my in-laws (total of 12 people) might be joining us and they love the comfort of VRBOs. We've done 3 VRBO trips with them. Hoping to sway them with discounts (doubtful with 50th) or perhaps Bonnet Creek. My parents in-laws want to pay for accommodations and we are very appreciative... but we would rather pay for our own and have a more "vacation" experience. I dunno... I like our tiny private hotel room, the flexibility of the shuttles and the energy of the large pools. Issue is not all families have the same travel budget.

In the end we will have a great time no matter where we stay! Lots of time to plan and look at options!

I think for our April trip, we are going to book a flight with a layover. Option 1 is a layover in Toronto but we would get to Orlando around 12:30pm.
Option 2 is a direct flight, but would only get to Orlando around 8:30pm. Basically would have to grab the rental car, drive in the dark to condo, and go to bed. I wish the 12:30pm arrival was direct! We aren’t booking yet so maybe they will switch their flight options anyway.

Late arrivals are not idea! We never do layovers when flying in March because of the high probability of the first leg being delayed or canceled due to storms. April should be fine, but hoping some better flights get added once restrictions ease and people travel more!

Our plans are coming together for spring break 2022 (let's hope!) Two nights at WDW using DVC points (maybe doing one park, not sure yet), followed by 3 nights at Vero Beach, also booked on points. Then on to Kennedy Space Center, a night at Cocoa Beach and ending with a 3 night Dream cruise (our 3rd attempt at a Grand Slam) before flying home. I wasn't planning on booking another cruise (after having so many cancelled) before our August 2022 Europe cruises, but figured what the heck as I purchased the 'cancel for any reason' insurance as well this time.

Now that we are starting to come out of the COVID fog, I wanna start planning our next trip - hopefully March Break 2022 - at Poly, but not committed to it yet. Do you guys think everything will be "back to normal" by that point, meaning FPs, dining plan, meet and greets, shows, etc? I'm super nervous about starting to plan with so many unknowns.

We have booked for March Break using Aeroplan. We can cancel without penalty. I am optimistic that we will be in a good place... we have to be!

Annnddddd we have changed our spring break plans again Going back to Aulani for four nights in a one bedroom (the whole 50% borrowing rule had me confused as I thought we then had less points to use. Then I figured I was doing the math wrong and we don't need to borrow at all!) Doing a couple nights in Waikiki at the beginning of the trip.On our transition day we will pick up our rental car, go to Pearl Harbour and then get some groceries before checking into Aulani.

Booked trip #2. Another 2 weeks in Orlando End of January. I like that time of year, I have done it at least a couple times.

We are thinking about a March Break 2022 trip. Has anyone ever flown into Sanford airport? Any recommendations about transport to Disney resorts?

We've booked a trip for mid-February. Just booked our flights from Vancouver to Orlando yesterday, as there is a seat sale with Air Canada. We got a decent price, although I've done better in the past. Didn't want to risk higher fares when things officially open up, so I grabbed the flight at a price that I was ok with.

Rented a car through Costco, although I will cancel if I find a better rate (and I hope I do because while it's not crazy expensive, it's not cheap!). We have a house booked for one week through vrbo.com and are waiting on our DVC membership and points to be loaded from a sale that just closed. Once the points are in our account, we'll book a week onsite.

We flew into Sanford once, and made the mistake of taking a cab to Disney! It was about $100 USD, but that was a good 15 years ago, so I'm sure it's more now. I'd rent a car from the airport, although there may be some cheaper options than a cab now.

I'd love to plan a trip for 2022 but am hesitant to book March break (cost & how busy it will be in Orlando) so wondering those of you with kids in high school, do you ever pull them out for a week for a trip? My kiddos are starting high school (gr 9) and I'm wondering what do people do? Seems like missing a week in hs is a pretty big deal.
