We'll be going for around 28-35 days in Oct/Nov. Have 4 weeks booked now and just waiting to decide on doing the 5th week.

Annual passes for 3 is $1,550
Airfare out of Seattle is normally around $1,500
Food at around $100/day is about $3,000
Shopping is around $2,000-$3,000
DVC stay at BWV is 300 points and maybe another 100 points for that 5th week somewhere else. So say 400 points. MF on those points is under $2,400

So the total budget is about $10,450 - $11,450.

[MarkF0wle]

Family of 4 adults travelling 23rd of April until May 15th 2015.

Flights from England direct into Orlando International - £2,603.15
3 x Hotel Room for the night of arrival at ASp - £234.00
3 night cruise on the Dream - £1,383.26
Transfers to & from port Canaveral - £184.00
17 night stay at SSR in a 2BR Villa with free dining & Disney park tickets - £7,038.00
Tickets to Universal & Gatorland - £872.00

Which is roughly ~$19,000 right now

Strangely, when I was costing this during the planning phase it cost the same in 2015 as it did in 2014 when we stayed at SSR for 21 days. Which I wasn't expecting.

Magic Maker -- $170
Gas -- $60
Food/activity budget-- $1100

Total:$3438

 

[disneyeveryyear]

It really depends how you price it, but here goes:

April 5-12 3 adults some days, 2 adults others (DD16 meets up with marching band and will be gone from us from Tuesday at 9:00 a.m. to Friday at 9:00 p.m.)

SSR Studio - $0.00 DVC Members
Flights - $75 (SWA points and companion pass) for EBCI
Tickets - $0 - APs bought last year
Car Rental - $211
Airport Parking - $43.xx
Food - $1,000
Refunds from DD trip
Sold ticket to friends who are going -{$140}
Meal money from bus trip -{$50}

So using this method - $1,139

Obviously if I amortized the costs of the points and dues for DVC and the daily breakout of the APs, it would be higher, but it isn't $ I have to spend this year, extra to go on the trip.

[kathy884]

What is wrong with this picture?? My seven night/six day trip December 2014 cost me $1680 and my three night/two day stay in March of 2016 will cost me about $5160

December 2014 -- before Christmas week, so low crowds and moderately low season
Fights -- free with SW points
Rental car -- free -- parents got one
Condo -- free -- parents did RCI trade for Cypress Points - really enjoyed staying there
Kennel for dog -- $400
Food and Spending -- $400
Special dinner at Café Tu Tu Tango -- took relatives and nephew ($120)
Mickey's Christmas Party for four -- $300
SeaWorld weekend pass and second day for two -- $180
Two park to park one day tickets at Universal -- $280

Budget for March 2016
-- Air -- $1200 -- May have most of this for free with SW points, but not counting on that and putting this in the budget.
-- Three night pool room stay at ALK -- budget $1800 -- Should be able to get this for some discount -- maybe $1200, but am budgeting for retail. If I have points for miles and there are decent discounts, maybe I'll upgrade to Savanah view.
-- Wild Africa Trek and some time at AK -- Three Admissions to AK $300 and three treks at $240 pp ouch (will probably be high price in March) -- $1020
-- Keys to the Kingdom tour and late afternoon/evening at the MK -- $300 park admission $240 ($79 pp for tour) -- $540
-- One dinner at Jiko -- $100
