We were supposed to depart here at 5:30 am Jan 19th and arrive in Orlando by 11:40am...totally excited! Everything was going perfectly and running as smooth as ever, until I got my e-mail yesterday saying that NWA had to change our flights due to a "scheduling conflict" and they were going to fly us out in the early evening on Jan 18th, HAVE US SPEND THE NIGHT (they weren't going to pay for our hotel that night) in our connecting city (what a HUGE hassle!!! We have an almost 4 year old and an almost 6 year old) and fly us into Orlando Jan 19th in the LATE AFTERNOON (4ish!)
Well, I was so furious, I spent 1/2 of the day of the phone yesterday! NOW- we finally got everything figured out again!
we fly out on Jan 17th on a direct flight leaving at 7:45 in the morning and arriving at 10:55 am( on a different airline, NWA "took care of it" I had to fight them most of the day yesterday to get treated with the respect that we, as loyal customers, deserve!!!) and I called Disney to let them know- THANK GOODNESS I made the entire reservation through Disney World on line and on the phone!!!! They made it SO SUPER EZ for us and just added the 2 extra nights, 2 extra days of tickets (the extra ticket days were not much more per person, what a deal!)
So, now I am back to being excited again! And, even though we are ticked at NWA, we actually get to spend two extra days (who can complain?) at the best place on earth! NWA can stick it- I don't plan on using them for ANYTHING anymore (other than using up all of our frequent flier miles!!!) Then, NWA no more for this family. They changed our flights 4 times in the last 3 months! This "over night" scheduled BY THEM in our connecting city was not going to work for this family!
WE ARE SO EXCITED!!!!!!! I don't know who's more excited! My DH and I or our girls...We are staying at Port Orleans for the first two nights- then moving over to our FAVORITE RESORT at Disney! AKL, here we come! I cannot believe how long we'll be there! 17th-30th! That's almost 1/2 of a month! Good thing DH gets all of those vacation days!
We have the hopper and more tickets, first time for that!
