Hi,
I'm a regular on the DLP board and now we're thinking about WDW for 2012 - DH and I are both terrified of flying, but as my eldest ds is there now with his dad, we are starting to think we need to do a trip so our little one doesnt miss out
I've got brochures, looked at trip reports, done lots of web research but I'm going round in circles, so I'd be really grateful if you guys could give me some first timer advice. I guess the first questions are:
1. Book a package through Virgin/First Choice etc, or DIY, and if DIY who do you book the different bits with
2. What is the best way to get tickets? For best I mainly mean cheapest (
) but also I gather some places issue "real" tickets and some vouchers that need exchanging, so as we'll be going in school holidays I'm guessing that best may also mean easiest.
3. DDP or not? I guess if it gets thrown in free then its a no brainer, but what about paying for it?
4. Anything you wish someone had told you before your first trip?
Thanks in advance, I guess over the next 18 months or so I'll be posting a load more questions, the less stress we have over the plans the better so we can just worry about the flying!
