Who's doing some early planning? I mean...early. 2027!

We are just back from our trip. We enjoyed it and booked a bounceback for the discount, but we really want to move it out to April of 2027. We may do that even if there is no bounceback offered.

Tired of food/wine, fall trips at Disney. We loved Flower/Garden in 2023 and want to go back! Plus I need at least 1.5 years between trips.
2026 we are doing Dollywood/Gatlinburg during their fall/Halloween season. Very excited for it.

Anyways, this is just a spot to spend some time for vacation day-dreaming.
I'll be here if there are any other kooks like me out there!

I haven't started actual planning yet but am thinking spring 2027. I think DH will need knee surgery this next year, we are planning a big/expensive trip to Ireland next fall, and there are family illnesses that make me want to put it off.
But I'm lurking on the forums and dreaming.

That's a lot on your plate for 2026!

We are thinking of the week or two weeks after Easter week. We don't have kids and I don't understand spring break timing anymore. When I was a kid, it was always the week before or week after Easter. Now it seems like it lasts March through May.

But honestly, the worst crowds we've had were this past trip and our trip the first week of December, so I think as long as we avoid Easter, should be a good week.
