tagging along in january..

[mollyseven]

O.k so I am thinking that the 2 kids and I will tag along with hubby when he goes to dw for a convention in late January.
He will probably stay at either CBR or PO ....suggestions for which one? Who has the better transportation?
2nd....in May we had a package that included everything but this time he will be going for work so he will book his air and hotel and we will get our separately so can we still book a meal plan and what is the best place to buy our 3/4 day passes....?
In order to get ME...do we all have to be listed on the room reservation or?
Help....

Not sure about being able to book the meal plan ... I know that with the "free dining deal", the room, meals and minimum of one day base ticket for each person had to be on the "package". As for PO vs CBR, they're both great, and their bus service is about the same. CBR is very spread out, and the hike to the food court can be a pain. PO has 2 different resorts - Riverside and French Quarter. POFQ is one of my favourites as it's smaller than the others. And there's a boat to downtown disney from both POFQ and POR.

As for DME, I think you all do need to be listed. But there shouldn't be any reason that you can't add yourselves after his work has booked the room. It's not like there are additional charges if the kids are under 18.

I know that people I know have bought park tickets from ticketmania, and I want to say "paramount tickets" ... this was a couple of years ago, and they by far had the best rates.

Good Luck ... and Happy Planning!

Paramount tickets is no more, but there is another ticket broker that I have dealt with-Undercover Tourist recently, and they were great. Go to Mousesavers.com and sign up for Mary's newsletter. You can save a few $$$ by using the link. It comes out on the 15th of each month. HTH
