My sister did this to me. She wanted to go spring break 2015 to Universal with all 5 of her kids. She told me she was just going to go to AAA. No! No! No! I knew I could find her much better deals. I have never been to Universal so I did my research, found a town house the would sleep 7, and had her buy tickets at Undercover Tourists.(park to park buy 2 get 3 days). I asked her at least once a month from August to February if she was planning a day in Magic Kingdom. I got a big fat No. Of course the day after prices went up she wanted MK tickets and Chef Mickey. I told her Chef Mickey was going to be difficult. Gave her the reservation number, she however did not call. The week before she was leaving she still wanted Chef Mickey. So I checked every day for a week. I did find her a reservation, While she was in Orlando. I found 2, 4 table reservations at the same time. She then called the reservation line and asked if the tables could be together. Of Course they can, that way Disney can charge a gratuity. She waited till the week before she left for Orlando to get fast pass +, pickings were slim. She had a great time, because she listened to me, however it would have been a lot easier if she had the whole MK thing figured out before the 180 day window.
