WDW alone at 19 - any tips please

[Princess Aurora45]

Has anyone done WDW by themselves? I am worried that I wont have as much fun by myself as I will have no one to share my experiences with. I am also worried because of my age. When I get there I will have only just turned 19!

Well, you'll have the advantage of doing whatever you want, whenever you want. And don't forget, they sometimes have single rider lines that can bypass a lot of people! Just go and have fun.

You will have a wonderful time doing whatever you want, when you want to do it!
I have done both. Im going with friends in May and solo in the fall. Im looking more forward to the solo trip!
Its not like being alone in a big city. Everyone's friendly, the CM's are great!

Go to the Solo travelers forum and check it out!!

Good Luck

As long as you're not totally introverted you should be able to meet people and possibly make friends while you are there. That's one advantage of travelling alone. And you never know...my new neighbor is from England having met her husband while working at the Jersey (as in New Jersey) shore for the summer.

If you're actually from the one of the cities that make up London you should have the street smarts to take care of yourself...Disney's pretty safe but no where is totally safe. And if you get homesick, you can always stop by the UK pavillion and find someone who doesn't speak funny and who thinks' driving on the left is the only way God intended us to drive.

Why don't you post over on the Adults & solo travelers board to see if anyone else will be solo when you are there??? Great way to meet new people.... just be sure to meet them in a PUBLIC area.... like in one of the parks....You can hang out at the parks have dinners together etc.... (and here comes them Mom in me).... just don't take them back to your room (or even give them your room number!) At 19 you are an adult but still need to be careful

I did a solo trip namy years ago and I really loved it. I could go at my own pace and stop when I wanted to and ride what I wanted to. It was also nice to shop as long as I wanted also!!
