DD - 12 (and 1/2! than you very much!)
Plan...
Well, this trip there isn't much of one! We had three United ticket certificates & I tried & tried to use them in December....or November...or October...going to Orlando, or Myrtle Beach...
Anyway, I gave up and told my DH that *he* could try. After trying many variations, he finally asked the United agent the magic question "Do you have anything in the next two weeks, IAD to MCO?"
She did! We got out certificates exchanged for e-tickets & in about 1 hour we leave for the airport!
Our first night we are staying at POP for one night & then moving over to the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress until Thursday. A tip - if you have a family member who travels & they could stay at a Hyatt, have them register as a Gold Passport member. Our Hyatt stay is free/no extra charge & this Hyatt is wonderful. By the way, their resort fee covers boating(sailboats, canoes), biking(surrey & bicycles), executive three putt golf course, newspaper, coffeepot in room, complimentary Internet access, health club, kids' activities...
We have only one ADR/PS - for Narcoosee's/Monday/7pm.
Our transpo will be a National/Emerald Aisle car that we snagged for less than $18/day. I don't know how we got such a great rate. Every other time I checked the rates were more expensive, even when using all the same codes.
I'll try to post a final thoughts type of report when we get back.
agnes!
