First Choice, Upgrade and Saratoga

[eeyorefanuk]

Me again (I can hear you all sighing you know !! )

Right we are thinking of flying with FC to orlando, from some of your kind replies to other threads, it seems that FC are ok to fly with.

For anyone who has flown with them, has any upgraded (cost £220 return pp) and do you think it is worth it?

Saratoga springs we have had a very good quote for two bedroom apartment. Thinking about it, it would be better if we had a three bedroom. Do you know if they do three bedroom?

Also I believe they have just opened some new "tree"??? villas - if we went for these do you know if the free dining plan is included?

We have decided since we will probably spend around 6 days outside of the disney parks we will probably use the daily table service for our breakfast and eat out for dinner.

Saratoga Springs does have 3 bedroom units on property - they are known as "Grand Villas". The Treehouse Villas also have 3 bedrooms, 2 double rooms and the other has bunkbeds in it. I'm not sure if they are available for cash ressies though.

I'm sorry, but I can't advise you regarding the free dining, as we've never used the dining plans. Our meals are always a mix of dining at WDW/other parks/off property.

If you go to www.waltdisneyworld.co.uk you will see the ones that are offering free dining, as far as i know its OKW and SSR in the dvc range that offer it.

We flew with FC last summer and upgraded. Do I think it was worth it? Yes it was.

You get good legroom, good seatback tv facilities and the food was very good.

The negatives? - the cabin is at the front and is a little claustrophobic I felt. Also people from economy were using the toilets in the PE cabin and the queue at times was forming all the way through the cabin. At one point someone was standing in my wifes leg space !!

At the price I paid last year, it was worth it, this year the price was crazy and back to Virgin for me. It's all about the Benjamins!!

Both my sister and I have rung WDW separately and both got only the two bedroom.

I did mention the tree villas yesterday but was told they were not loaded onto the system as DVC(?) people get first refusal, and probably because there is not many, would not have any to offer.

No three bedroom was offered to us.

I priced up 2 x one bedroom but would cost another £1,000 instead of 1 x two bedroom.
