So this is my second trip to Disney World, and I got bit by the Disney bug big time last June so I've got really involved in the planning this year!
Cast are myself, I'm Bethan - 22 and my ex-partner but best friend Rob - 25. We were together for 2 years before decided that we were better as friends. That was 6 months ago and since then we decided that another trip to Disney was in order!
We fly out on the 19th for 2 weeks at POP. It's costing us about £1200 each including DDP and 3 tours which I'm happy with. I'll do a day by day plan so you can see what we have booked, but we haven't decided on which parks to do when so we're going to go with the flow
Day 1
We'll be going on the train first class from Bristol to Gatwick before staying at the Hilton overnight. We got the train tickets for £30 each (return) and the hotel for £69 incl breakfast so not as posh as it sounds haha.
Day 2
We fly out on the Virgin flight at 11:15 (ish, I think it's changed) and all being well once we check into POP we'd like to head over to DTD to have dinner at T-Rex. Our flight was delayed by 6 hours last time so I'm not holding my breath that we'll make it!
Day 3
We have a dinner reservation at Hollywood and Vine for Fantasmic so some time will be spent at DHS.
Day 4
We've got lunch at Tutto Italia followed by dinner at 1900 Park Fare.
Day 5
We have booked the Seas Aqua Tour at Epcot so we're going to go swimming with the fish followed by dinner at Coral Reef!
Day 6
No reservations for today, however we plan to eat at the Rainforest Cafe at Animal Kingdom as I LOVE this place!
Day 7
This night we have a 7:40 ressie at the Rose and Crown so fingers crossed we get patio seats to watch the Iluminations.
Day 8
This is going to be a long day! First we get up early to head to the Magic Kingdom for the Keys to the Kingdom tour then we've got 8:00 seats for the Spirit of Aloha Luau dinner!
Day 9
Today is just a dinner at Crystal Palace. This is the Sunday where the Cheerleaders have a competition so is likely to be rather low key.
Day 10
We've got The Wave booked for a dinner this night.
Day 11
Chef Mickeys tonight!
Day 12
We've got the Backstage Safari booked followed by dinner at the Yak and Yeti.
Day 13
We have a reservation at the infamous Le Cellier this night which is the one dinner I'm the most excited about!
Day 14
We have lunch at the Plaza restaurant today.
This is where it gets interesting! As a surprise I've booked our final 2 nights into the AKL Savanna view! We'd have loved to stay here for 2 weeks, but the money just won't allow it. So we have dinner at Boma with either the room surprise before or after, I'll have to see how it pans out.
Day 15
We'll probably spend a lot of this day lounging at AKL making the most of it, and we were lucky enough to get a reservation at Sanaa on it's second night so I'm looking forward to being one of the first to eat here.
Day 16
Final day
No reservations today. We have a 7:30 evening flight so will use up our DDP credits and probably do a final few favourites.
So there you go! 2 weeks of fun pack tours and dining reservations. Other than Hollywood and Vine, Crystal Palace, Rainforest Cafe and Rose and Crown all our other reservations are at places we haven't eaten yet.
