Disney + airfare under 5k - can it be done?

[Kooks and Bay Bay]

I'm sorry, dates are week of March 30 - first week of April.

Hmm so its the week leading up to Easter Sunday so it may be excluded from the potential promos and LM at AOA is often excluded from many of them anyways.

I often hear about people booking through Costco to get a great deal. However, I checked online and I don't see any promotions at this time

I was going to say, price it up without the dining plan, but I see in the OP, she wants food included. My son’s family was with us last week and the kids and their mom eat almost nothing, plus DS watches what he eats. It probably wouldn’t be the best thing for them but they did buy the mugs. (Dining plan still includes those, I imagine.)

One thing I’d pass along to your neighbor is to start including Disney items (clothing, accessories, etc.) and gift cards for birthdays and holidays for this year and up until the time they go. That helps a lot with costs while there and in planning outfits and packing.

Also sharing meals may make more sense. Or everyone eats qs kids meals. The adult size some places us too much so I'll get a kids meal.
