NOVEMBER 2012 Trip Planners Thread~ Everybody is Welcome~Part 3 already!

[LifeIsDis]

I am so freaking stoked right now!!! My heart is beating out of my chest!! Because of airfare prices being what they were we had decided to drive from Central WI... This morning I was checking my email and I had an airfare alert from Kayak and the prices had dropped $86/person!!!

Needless to say I went to the site and check it out.. Was afraid that it wasn't going to be round trip etc.... But it was!!! I chose the Expedia site because we have an account with them... Then I looked at prices the next day and they were $4 less still and still had times to leave later in the day...

WE ARE FLYING TO DISNEY!!!!

Congrats!

That is so awesome!! Glad you were able to snag such great airfare. I guess it pays to get the email alerts.

I saw this somewhere else on the dis, but I wasn't sure if it was true or not.

WHY o WHY does deciding to do the F! pacakge or not drive me crazy!!!!! If I leave it, our first day is DTD, if I take it off, our first day is MK then we only have 1 DHS day and one waterpark/DTD day but 2 FULL days at MK, plus departure day can either be DTD or MK(whatever kids want) and we have a MVMCP. Does anyone do more than one DHS day? Right now we have 1.5 days only because we wanted to do the F! package and want to do 50's and sci-fi, ACK! My brain is frying!

We have 1.5 at DHS. Only 1 at AK. The rest is between MK and Epcot. Don't forget about the Fantasy Land expansion. If most of it is open for our trip buy the maps it looks like you could spend some time in there.

Thanks Smileybug!!!Now I'm really excited about that news!!!

You are welcome. Hoping you have lots of tomorrow with FD.

I saw this somewhere else on the dis, but I wasn't sure if it was true or not.

Its looking like it will happen. So make sure you have your schedule ready to go.

Thanks for the heads up. Have you heard any whispers about fall room only?

I don't think there have been any. At least yet.

But don't forget to check your room for any bounce back offers if you plan to take a trip next year.

If I make the change, I will have 1 AK, 1 DHS, 2 FULL Epcots and 1 FULL day at MK, one arrival (11-6) one departure (10-4) and a MVMCP night. THats alot of MK days LOL. If I dont, I will have 1 AK, 1.5 DHS, 1 full day MK, 1 departure and a MVMCP and 2 FULL epcot

This is just me.....But with the expansion I would want more time in the MK. I'm gonna have to go back and look at just how my schedule is broken down into days.

I haven't been there yet but I agree with Smileybug, with all the new stuff to explore I think more time in MK would be a good thing.

We have 3 MK days, 2 Epcot days, 1 day each for AK and HS. One run-around day (BBB, tea party, Chef Mickey's) and one rest/resort day at the Poly. We have hoppers too so if we want to do more (or less) of something we have that option....

Oh I understand... Im just wondering if I have enough MK time. I know switching I will AND my DD will get LTT (which she knows I cut ALONG time ago) Funny thing is our day and time is still available I know missing F! isnt the end of the world and all. I know no one has even suggested MM as an option to eat so losing it is no big deal! WHY O WHY DISNEY CANT YOU HAVE THE F! OPTION AT 50's!

Maybe because 50's has a pretty good reputation and MM's is not quite as good.
