It's been 2.5 yrs -- I'm feeling LOST!!!!

[SplshMtn99]

It's been almost 2 yrs since we were last at WDW (Beach Club)-- we were there during 9/11. Soooo, it's been at LEAST 2.5 yrs since I've had to compare hotel prices.

I just convinced DH this afternoon to possibly go back this Sept or Oct....and I started seeing info about FairyTale Pkg which looks good.

I'm feeling SOOOOOOO out of the loop. Everything is so different from 2.5 yrs ago. We are thinking Beach Club again OR that area.

What the heck is Silver Plan .....and why would I want to add it on? What does it get me?

Of the following rate options to start researching, where's my best luck to avoid wasting my time:
1. FairyTale Pkg
2. Military rate at Swan / Dolphin
3. Military rate from WDW w/ free ticket for DH & $99 ticket for me (HOWEVER, I DON'T THINK HE'S ELIGIBLE. He's FULL time Army National Guard & PART time Army National Guard -- but wasn't "activated".)
4. Overflow rates from SOG
5. Expedia

Don't necessarily need to have UPH park tickets.... can get tickets from SOG. We usually plan our days well -- and buy tickets accordingly to avoid over buying options we won't use.

ANY HELP greatly appreciated. Send me in the RIGHT direction!
Oh -- one more! Used to deal with CRO or SOG (no travel agents)....what will Dreams Unlimited get me? Would they have different availibity?

THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
