Most vacations booked at a time

[Simba's Mom]

I just called today and booked our fourth vacation in the next 11 months. Anyone ever booked more? What's neat is that we've got 3 different home resorts and 3 of the upcoming vacations are booked at each of the 3. The fourth vacation is booked where we've got the most points. DH wanted me to book for the Goofy challenge as soon as possible to give him added incentive to train! So I was wondering-who's ever had 4 or more vacations reserved? This is definitely a first for this many for us!

We have only two booked right now using DVC points ... but also have Disney's Vero Beach booked via RCI and have five other trips booked using our Worldmark points. Haven't started booking 2013 yet.

So jealous, I was all proud we had two!

Not individual reservation (there are multiple rooms, multiple resort stays) , but we have 7 vacation times scheduled over the next 11 months. These vacations range from the shortest 3 nights (long weekend early December) to the longest which is 2 weeks. The longest will go out to 4 weeks, but I'm waiting for the 7 month period to book 6 more days at Vero and then hopefully something at the BLT to end out my January 2013 stay.

DW and I have taken as many as seven trips in one year - multiple times.
We have gone in Jan, Feb, May, June or July, Aug, Sep, and Dec.

Four weeks-Bobbi, I'm so envious! The vacation I booked today was for January 2013, the WDW Marathon weekend. Doing the 5K again?

We've had as many as 4 booked in advance a couple of times. Never did have 5 booked at one time.

5 trips to WDW in 1 calendar year is our record. Right now we have 4 booked:

April '12 (BWV and cruise on Dream)
August '12 (Grand Californian!) 1st trip to DL, ever
Labor Day weekend '12 (quick trip to WDW to get our fix)
Christmas '12 (BLT standard view 1 BR)

Good for you!

The whole family agreed to do something for the 2014 Marathon weekend. Next year, my sister and cousin and i are going on the January MC,and that's the Marathon weekend if I'm not mistaken. I honestly don't know if I can do one again. I had bloody ankles from my braces. If I can both walk and be pushed in a wheelchair, I would do that. This year there were 2 women in scooters, and I may have seen a wheelchair, but that I am not sure of.

Will you and your DH both participate?

 

[dvc_john]

I have 7 active reservations at the moment, and plan to book an 8th later this week. But a couple are split reservations, so it's really 5 different trips.
(3 to WDW, 1 each to VGC and Aulani).

 

[Cyndibear]

Most we have booked at one time was 4, and that was just this year.

January, BLT & Dream Cruise

April, 1 wk at AK & 1 at BWV

Sept 1 wk at VWL

December, 4 days at BWV's

It is so fun to plan....looks like it will be 4 trips for 2013 too!

Have a great time!!

I don't have Disney vacations all booked but have vacations planned:

NCL Cruise booked for May 2012, 4 days
Punta Cana booked for July 2012, 1 week
Long Beach Island booked for August 2012, 1 week
Disney BWVs booked for August/September 2012, 8 nights
NCL Breakaway booked for July 2013, 1 week
HHI booked for August 2013, 1 week

Happy planning everyone!

In all honesty, reading about your participation in the 5K really did give me inspiration for the 5K. But I'm not sure if inspiration will carry me 3.1 miles. And of course, regarding the Goofy-half and full marathons-well, Guy can do those without me.
One question, though-people ask about different DVC hotels for the marathon. I know you stayed at AKV and we're considering switching to there at the 7 month window. How was it for transportation to the events?

 

[Song of the South]

In 2012 we will have 4 trips but only 3 of them fall within the 11 month window. I'm impressed!!!

And I have a serious question, could my scooter riding Mom really do the 5K with me? That's awesome! Does she need special permission or a handicap sticker or anything or does she just register for the race per usual?

Thanks!!!

[skelooch]

I usually have a minimum of 4 booked at any one time, for the last couple of years it has been 5 or 6 at any given time.
So far this year it's next week, May, August and Nov booked and hopefully I can sneak 1 more in somewhere, maybe Sept or Oct.

 

[arthur06]

We had 3 last year, which was our record. One was a DCL/AKL stay, one BWV and one was OKW.

Three trips made us borrow heavily, so no planned right now...

 

[VLee]

We presently have 4 booked, but looking for an additional time to book. The most I ever had in one year was 6 trips with 2 of those being associated with work conferences but got to stay at Beach and Dolphin for those two and visit Disney after hours.

The transportation to the 5K and the 1/2 marathon was wonderful to/from AKV this year. We wouldn't hesitate to stay there again, in 2014!

IF I could walk a bit faster I would love to do the 5K again. I know that they start bringing people in, and that caused me anguish more than the ankles. At the 1/2 way mark I was able to get some great bandaids, if I did a 5K again, I would start out with the bandaids. My concern is that I walk so slowly, not that I couldn't do the distance!
