***Official March 2019 Spring Into Disney Thread!***

[SaintsManiac]

Well I've been waiting for this thread to pop up, but I guess I'll get us started!

Who's ready for spring at WDW?? We are so excited about doing Flower & Garden again. We haven't since 2009 on our honeymoon!

We'll be heading down on March 1st and leaving March 5th. We are booked room only at POP. We will renew our APs this year instead of letting them expire like we had planned.

This is the first time we've skipped Mardi Gras in about 8 years! We usually spend the time in NOLA with friends, but we are ready for a change.

Post your dates and we'll get a roll call going!

[DWFamilyof6]

I’m so excited! We will be there 2/28-3/6. First time at Flower and Garden! Staying at Caribbean Beach Resort. Planning to do 5 days at the Parks. We have Four kids... wondering how much they can take of touring And tasting Epcot wout boredom setting in.

 

[Melissakay1q]

Yay! Thanks for starting the thread!

I’m booked solo at POP March 24-29. This will be my second solo trip and my first time to F&G. I’m planning to spend one full day at each park.Debating park hoppers. I decided against a dining plan to free up all of my options.

 

[MonaMN]

I was waiting for the thread, too! We will be there March 4-11, right now booked at POFQ but willing to modify when deals come out. Planning on 6 park days right now without hoppers (all parks with AK and HS twice).

This will be our second March - we were there for a few days last March before our cruise - and have also been in early Feb, early Oct, early Dec.

Part of our quest on this trip will be to add to our collection of Mickeys - trying to find him in as many outfits as we can - so planning on meals at Chef Mickey's, Mickey's Backyard BBQ, and Hollywood and Vine to try to catch a few we haven't before.

 

[susanktz]

Yay! I'm joining the crowd.

We're going March 24 - March 30

This will be my DD 5 trip (she's 12), but she begged to go again. Darn, I couldn't say no to Disney.

 

[DisneyJac]

We will be there for our very first DW trip March 14 - 24. I am super excited... we’ve been to Disneyland a few times. We are doing a split stay. It’s a long way for us to go and I don’t know if we will make it again and I couldn’t settle on just one resort... we are doing 5 nights at Poly and 5 nights at Beach Club. We are a family of four (kids will be 11 and 8). My husband doesnt like Disney or theme parks so we’ll leave him at the resorts .

 

[MonaMN]

Booked our flights yesterday! Normally I wouldn't book them this early, but I was using frequent flier miles and decided to grab them while the good flight times are still available. Hooray!

You got flights already?! I'm eagerly awaiting Southwest to open the dates for the end of March for me.

That sounds AMAZING! Two fantastic resorts!

We booked flights a couple of weeks ago too... had enough points so just went for it. Now just need to save enough for tickets and decide if we want the dining planning.

 

[SaintsManiac]

Updated roll call!

I booked my flights the day Southwest released them last month and paid $200 RT each. They have only gone up since!!!

 

[Melissakay1q]

Dude, I always thought that flights were cheaper as the date got closer or you needed to know some kind of insider-voodoo purchasing time magic, like the 2nd Tuesday of the month before your trip at 2PM Central Standard Time. I've got the upcoming Southwest booking date on my calendar and I AM READY.

 

[wdwnut61]

Count us in

We’re booked 3/16/19 - 3/24/19 at the CR
Flights already booked got a great rate with American Airlines I upgraded to first
So excited

During times like Spring Break or other holidays, it just seems the prices don't move around that much. And I always just like to know I have the flight I want... and I am OK spending a little more to get that.

Yep, me too. There is a direct flight from where we are only once per week. I knew which flight we needed to be on and booked the second it was available.

Count us in! I’m happy to see this thread started
We are going for our provinces Spring Break ( we’re Canadian).
We are staying offsite in a 2 bedroom condo at Sheraton Vistana Resort. This will be our 14th trip since 2008. Most of those stays were onsite , but we really prefer offsite for the space to spread out since the kids are 14 and 21 now. The Vistana is about a 4 minute drive from being on property so it works for us.

We will be doing 4 or 5 park days and possibly one water park day . Our dates are March 8th to March 16th . We are going in expecting big crowds . It’s a popular time for Spring Break in Canada and some states and I know previous crowd reports had people saying it was packed . We will plan well and deal with it. I can’t stand the thought of another winter with nowhere warm to look forward to and our break is the only time the kids won’t miss too much school .

I’m already so excited and looking forward to planning with all of you!

 

[JenCl456]

SOOOOO... Excited!!!!! We are going March 9th-15th. It will be my husband and 7 year old son's first trip to DW. I cannot wait to see there excitement. It has been 18 years since I have been so it will all be new to me also!!
