We will have 2 vacations:

Aug - 7 nights at WDW for 6 people (adult age) using 352 DVC points
@$1180- in annual dues (for 1BR and a studio at BWV)
@$1800- We have PAPs from last trip but I figure, based on cost of PAP and how many park days we will have used it for, the daily cost and totaled it
@$2500 for food using TIW card that we need to renew at $100
@$500 for drive down (from MD) and back in gas and hotel
Total is @$5980, let's say $6000 for 6 people

Nov - 8 night RCCL cruise for 4 people in 1 cabin
$2827 for cruise, tips and taxes
It's our home port and we'll get family to drop us off and pick us up
@$350 bar tab
@$150 for bingo/slots
@$400 for excursions
Total is @$3727

So, about $10K total...now that I look at that

[marchingstar]

may 2-15, 2 adults

9 nights at POP + 10 day disney tickets (with hopper and water park): 2098
3 nights at cabana bay + 3 days universal ticket: 750
flights: 1426 Canadian, about 1200 American (could have gotten cheaper but this is a direct flight from our hometown, 3800 km from the world. feels like a luxurious splurge!)
food and souvenirs TBD, but based on our last trip (August 2014), I'm guessing ~2500

so a total of ~6500 (although I fear converting that back to CAD)

this is our first value stay (we've stayed at the contemporary, POR, and RPR before), but with it being our second trip in less than a year, I'm more than willing to give POP a try!

 

[tcherjen]

Still working on it:
6 nights at FWC $2000
Have annual pass-
Ticket for my daughter's bf, who lives out of state, $408

7 nights at AKV Jambo via DVC points (~$825 in dues this year)

2 4-day PH+ tickets from UT: $730.86
Expecting to add 2 days to my ticket and 1 to his once we get there: ~$33
Food for the both of us estimate ~$700

so, total as I currently know it is ~$2813

If I remember, I'll report back on actual spending when I get back.

1 adult - I will be with friends a few of the days but booked my own package
November 5-14th
Wilderness Lodge - Courtyard View
9 day park hoppers
Quick Service Dining Plan- $4,200
MVMCP - $67

This is with no discount- hoping for a room only when they come out for the fall.

Airfare - $166 roundtrip! <-----SCORE! That is with seats picked and paid for. I have had great luck with low airfare the past 3 years. Leaving on a weekday has been the reason and I will continue to do that for the low price!

Haven't counted in spending money.

[JanBlessed]

I meant $15,000. Didn't hold the $ key down, sorry

 

[JanBlessed]

Our Disney getaway as FL residents and driving 4 hrs 2 adults/2 children (8&1) = 1600 for the 4 day/ 3 night.

The 3 park FL resident ticket is the Best Deal for Disney!

Two adults, a weekend trip to AKL club room plus one day park hoppers: Will probably hit about $1500. Most of this is hotel room and park tickets, plus food. Airfare and car rental covered by points/miles.

September 4-night DCL cruise for the same two adults:
Cruise fare (deluxe family verandah stateroom thingie) ~$1900 originally, $360 deposit paid by bonus points, so $1540
Flights: Free (flyer miles)
Car rental to and from port: I guess about $180 total, but may end up being covered by points anyway (I'm good at playing the credit card points system)
Hotel one night: $100
Incidentals (probably lots of cafe coffees, tips, some booze, and some 18+ meals): $500??
Total: $2320
