I can't decide! But I'm planning on booking something in January so I need to settle on something.
We love WL. We just returned from a stay there and I still miss the sound of the boat horns waking me up in the morning. Nothing like knowing the MK is that close!
I tried to book bounceback but it was sold out, so here I am still going back and forth about it.
My initial plan was to book a standard or woods package with dining. Priced online and it's about $2900. We'd probably save in the ballpark of $200 with AAA, so I'm figuring around $2700.
Then, idiot that I am, I started checking out the other offers.
Turns out we can do POFQ (which we love too) for $900 less. Or, we could do POFQ with premium dining and still come out ahead! Premium dining probably isn't a great deal, but we recently started eating vegan so it would probably work out better for us to stick to TS meals.
WWYD? Pay more for a beautiful deluxe but spend more OOP on food? Or save a bit by staying at a mod but upgrading the dining plan?
I should add that we're planning on going back next Dec. for MVMCP, and staying at WL for that, so that's also figuring in my desires to save some $$.
TIA for any thoughts!
