Passporter Books - Remember them?

[ColoradoLime]

Disappointed to learn they are no longer in print. I get there is SO much free info online now, but I loved having something tangible in my hands to read. And it was a nice keepsake.

Unfortunately, producing a printed guidebook became unprofitable. Hardly surprising since the PassPorter folks had a small family-owned Disney guides service.

PassPorters were so packed with information and trip tips. Sadly, once the Marxes decided to put the guide online, I didn't think it was as usable.

It wasn't more than a couple years later that their server became unable to support the security level increasingly necessary, and their site was discontinued.

I still can't bring myself to discard my Deluxe binder with a now very outdated insert. We still photocopy the worksheets and use them when planning and scheduling on MDE.

Yeah online has destroyed a lot of independently published books. I love them so much though.

I loved the Passporter Guides. Sad to see the forum closed down too. Jennifer has a you tube channel doing DIY crafts now.

Ohmigosh, I had forgotten all about those! I loved the one I had for WDW years ago. It was a great planning tool.

I loved the old guide books, it seems like things change way too fast these days for them to be accurate at all!

So true! My head is spinning just based on the changes that have occurred in the past 3 months!
