[love~disney]

We are also going in June.
We will be there June 1-8th at the Dolphin. Just got off the phone from booking it.
June is really hot but we are pumped!!

 

[Tiggerlover91]

Thanks for joining me! I've got you added to the calendar! I've been in June before...I know it's hot, but that's when those little spray fans come in handy!

 

[love~disney]

We've been there in June before as well without kids. It is so hot but manageable. This time will be different with kids however since we will be taking breaks during the hottest time of the day. Hoping it will make it easier on the kids and all of us.

 

[shine87]

Our plan is June 22-20 the kids get out of school on the 21 and then it's off to Disney the next morning. This has been our plan pretty much since the second we got back from our June, 2011 trip.

BUT.....

DD made it into company at her dance studio which means summer dance camp and possibly nationals. I'm hoping that since it's so early in the summer it won't interfere but you just never know! So at this point those are our dates but I'm going to have to hold off until I have all her dance dates before booking

 

[dd53]

We are! June 18-27th in two rooms at POR! Almost to the one year countdown mark!!!!

 

[bluezy]

I think I can officially join the June 2013 group now. We're not booked yet, but I plan to be there June 16-23.

I had been planning to go back to Disney World in June 2013 since our June 2011 trip but hadn't mentioned it to DH...until Sunday. I figured I should start warming him up to the idea of going next year (we typically plan our trip 3-6 months ahead of time so this is extremely early for him to be thinking about it). Much to my surprise, he was on board with it immediately (I thought that would be a 3 month process at best). So now we just need to decide where to stay on this trip. We've stayed at Pop Century on our last 3 trips and ASMo the time before that. Four of our children (ages 26, 14, 13, and 8 at the time of travel) are joining us on this trip so we will once again need either 2 rooms at a Value or possibly a Mod or a suite at AoA to stay on budget. We like Pop, but thought we'd like to try something different this time. Of course, we say that every trip and end up back at Pop for one reason or another (usually PIN/discount availability). Decisions, decisions, decisions....

[Tinker_Tam]

I am cautiously joining in! We are going in the very early part of June. We won't have a date till I figure out when DD gets out of school. We will most likely leave the next day. I say cautiously joining since there is so much that could go wrong in the meantime!

We have only been to WDW 1 other time and that was Nov/ Dec 2010. So DH and I are really looking forward to our return! We aren't telling the kiddos for a LONG time though!

I'm very cautious about our trip as well. Even though DH has agreed to it (or as he says, "I didn't agree to it, I just didn't veto it." -- but I take the "non-veto" as an agreement ) I know it will depend our budget next spring. I refuse to take money out of our savings account for a vacation (unless it's a few hundred dollars that I know I can repay quickly) so I'll need to get all the money set aside by next spring. That won't be a problem as long as we don't have any large unexpected expenses between now and then.

We also don't tell the (young) kids about our trips until a few weeks before we go. One time we didn't tell them until we were half way there (we drive). That was my favorite time/way to tell them. My goal is always to wait until about 2 weeks before the trip. That way they have a little bit of time to plan what they want to do at each park but I don't have to hear them say "How long until we leave for Disney????" for months on end.

I just worry because so much can pop up and bite us when we are this far out. Dh is on board with things. I have told him that I think we need to go 2013 that prices may increase when everything is open again in 2014. Whatever it takes! After all the is kinda what happened with Carsland in DL.

We drive too! People think we are nuts but it does save A HUGE amount for the 4 of us. That was the only way DH agreed to the last trip. Its really not a bad drive. We just got back from a 20 Hour drive to MN. We have family in NC so we stop there and spend some time too. Works out well!

Same here...people think we're crazy to drive that far but it works for us. My DH hates to fly. He'll do it for business (let me just say that the year he had to travel back and forth to Europe every 3 or 4 weeks was not fun!) but it's not worth the stress to ask him to do it on vacation. Our kids have all traveled well and don't mind the drive. And just for fun, I priced flights for us when DH & I went to Disney in 2011 with just 3 of the kids and we couldn't touch anything for less than about 1700 -- and that was before baggage fees and parking charges for the car at the airport. It cost us less than $500 for gas and hotel stays during the drive down and back.

Here's hoping no major "surprise expenses" pop up for our families in the next 10 months or so.

 

[wdwnut61]

We are in the process of planning our next trip to celebrate DD's High School graduation. Our tentative dates are May 24th-June 9th still not sure about the resort.

We were just there June 7 -17 and had a wonderful time. DD loves SWW so we knew we wanted to return during that time.

Looking forward to hearing everyones plans

 

[caa1277]

Count me in as well. As with others, our dates aren't concrete and we haven't booked yet as things can change. I can't schedule my vacation until December and then it is by seniority. Our tentative dates are 6/1 - 6/12. We've stayed at Pop on two trips and stayed at CBR last year and loved it. We like both resorts. Last year we also got free dining, so here's hoping for free dining again in 2013!!

 

[kristenkoj]

As of now we are planning to be at Pop Century from June 16th thru the 23rd. It may change as we get closer but for now we are thinking this is when. We went last year about the same time, so we are ready for the heat, and we love Disney!

 

[caa1277]

Does anybody know if Disney is booking for 2013 yet? I know on their website it says only up to Dec. 31, 2012.

 

[gloria1016]

I've booked and paid for our very first Disney cruise in June 2013. Can't decide whether we should go to Disney World before or after our cruise. Can't wait! We are going to DW this November, but I'm more excited about our cruise!

You can't book through the website for 2013. But you can call Disney or use a Disney travel agent to book a room-only reservation for 2013. I don't think you can book packages at all yet. My Disney TA has all of the information she needs to book our trip but we're waiting until pricing is released (she thought it would be in about a month) to book so we don't have to do any price adjustments.

 

[musicalgirl2010]

I'm hopping to take a trip to Disney with my mom and dad to celebrate my 21st Birthday in June 2013 hopefully the 23-29! I'm hoping to stay at the CR I know it's a deluxe resort but It's been 15 years since my last trip to Disney and I have never stayed on the grounds and it's a celebration!
