the TA i've been using (after doing a bit of shopping around) is awesome... made ps' for our family while *she* was on vacation! including the getting up at the crack of dawn to start calling and so far we've gotten everything we've asked for!

imo you cannot go wrong w/ www.magicalmemoriestravel.com they're awesome!

Kathryn and Joe are the best!

I have Dawn from Magical Memories!! She is awesome! She actually emailed me the night before all the dining hoopla came out and gave me a heads up! We got everything booked and taken care of right away. I gave her my list of priority seatings that I wanted and she said at the 90 day (june 25), she'll call and make them for me! She is awesome and very enthusiastic. She emails you back right away too! This is the first time for me using a TA and I think it is what I'll do from now on

Another Magical Journeys fan here! Jean is so sweet and helpful. She also knows a lot about cruises if you're ever looking into information for that...

I also am a first timer. I first went through and did a vacation plan on the
disney website, I dont have a credit card so I went to a local agent and the
price was only $40 more than what was quoted on the wdw site! Also I was
surprised that wdw had the best airfare!!!! The Agent I used was
Carlson Worldwide travel. I was very concerned that the price would be higher but it wasnt.

As far as the reservations are concerned, I did that myself. But the agent
would have gladly called and made them for me. I ended up spending 40 min
on the phone with them making the reservations.
Before you do that I suggest doing what DW and I did. Surf the WDW site
and check out all the restaurants and what they have to offer. Then make
the Reservations. (Just wish they had a toll free phone # lol)

I'm using Magical Vacations for my September trip. Lisa is terrific and she is going to make all of the PS for me. She is very prompt, thorough, and customer service oriented.

I'm another happy Magical Memories Travel client! They have been fantastic! My agent was just out of town for a week but she still took my phone calls and answered my questions while she was at the beach with her family. She has saved me almost $500 for my trip in December! I requested quotes from 4 agencies and had lots of questions in my quote request. She was the only one who answered ALL of my questions rather than just give me a quote with the final numbers. She even thought of possibilities that I hadn't thought of.

I highly recommend them! Top notch service, very friendly and knowedgeable and VERY on top of the discounts!

i could have written your post! i had exactly the same experience w/Magical Memories! could not ask for better service!

You can't beat Magical Vacations' exclusive "Tiki-Plan"! A fresh flower lei from Hawaii... that's better than what the Polynesian Resort gives you, even staying at the concierge level!

We have used Dreams Unlimited for our last 3 trips and wil use them again in future. Highly recommend.

Your Travel Agent not on the list? Let me know what you like so much about them! Or give me your vote for one that is already on the list!

From what I can tell it's very important to get someone that specializes in Disney! It makes all the difference in the "world"!

Keep your votes coming!

Make Magical Journeys 5

I have used some of the others as well, I just found a "bond" with my agent at Magical Journeys. I would say to make sure they are Earmarked above everything else.

Sue Ellen rocks! She got me 3 rooms at WL for Labor Day Weekend and saved me $200 (which includes 1 upgraded room). I originally made reservations myself thru AAA website.

Dreams Come True Vacations 2

It's actually Dream Come True Vacations and they're my vote!!! I will never use another agency ever again. No one will ever live up to the great service I have received thus far.

 

[shelby2001]

SueEllen gets my vote too. She has done a great job and so many changes for me.

 

[FanofTink]

Small World Vacations has my vote!!!!!!!!

 

[JuneCleaver]

Count me on the Magical Journeys bandwagon! I love waking up to an email saying my room has been discounted before I have even had a shower or coffee!

And no matter what the question or the request, my TA responds extremely quickly, sometimes to the point I think she either lives in her computer or is telepathic!
