Planning for a Group Disney Trip

[lucincia]

My family decided to head back to WDW in the fall of 2007. We invited some friends and their families along. If everyone ends up going, this will be a trip with married couples with and without kids, with kids ranging from ages 2.5 to 9 at the time of travel. To help them out, I have put together a preliminary document to assist them in making their decision, planning out their budgets, and give them some idea of what to do for the week-long Disney brainwashing, I mean, trip. The document is very tentative right now, but just wondering what you guys think.

You can view the doc here -

Thanks!

I love it! It looks really good. The only thing I'd change is the nine day park hopper option passes. Let people know that they might not need to buy that many days -a six or seven day option for tickets is avaiable even if you plan on staying for nine. There are other things to do in the area. Also maybe mention that you must purchase the Dining plan for every night of your trip.

Otherwise it looks great. I love the fact that you included sample prices for food and a timeline of the exact 180 day window. If you sent this to me I'd sign up right away!

Also, thanks for the toll-free number. I'm making our reservations today and will use that!

I'm planning a group trip for December 2007. I called and booked a Magical Gathering. There are special events that you can book, just by being part of a Gathering. Here's the link: Magical Gatherings Grand Gathering Exclusive Events

Thanks, ColleenS - I have added your suggestions to the online document! Now just have to get those friends to make their reservations!

Thanks, mmeb144 - I will bring those things up with the group and see if anyone is interested. I am just finding it funny that Disney is giving us the priviledge to spend more money with them when we are bringing more people

Me, too! However, some of the events sound like fun. I have to eat anyway.
