    Split stay Disney and Universal

    We do this almost every year and in different ways depending on if we have AP's at Disney. This year we have booked an entire package 4 nights at royal Pacific followed by 14 nights animal kingdom lodge with free dining and park tickets. Flights with Lufthansa via Frankfurt. I added the 14 day...

    Something happening at SSR in October

    Sorry, I haven't quite caught up with 2018. That's odd then but yes I like SS but would be happy in BCV.

    Something happening at SSR in October

    Could it be anything to do with DVC bookings being up? I think Disney uk state it's not confirmed until 11 months before departure. Nice for the folk who got WL And I'm guessing the folk in POR retain the dining plan rather than revert to QS. By the way Wakey, thank you for Charlie Taylor and...

    United airlines

    Flying via Frankfurt the flight will be most likely operated by Lufthansa. We are using this route in August from Manchester having booked a United flight. I would think better aircraft, films in English, slightly longer flight time. Good connections on outbound but our inbound flight from FRA...

    Paying Annual Dues at WDW

    I'm being a little lazy here but can I ask how you went about opening a US account. I've paid my dues every January over the phone or on line and not given it much thought but with the dreadful exchange rate at the moment I'd like to look at paying it monthly.

    What is OKW like?

    Sorry you had issues at OKW. As I said previously we have been DVC owners there since the early '90's. In many stays we have always found cast members to be some of the most helpful and accommodating on property. I would not have stayed in the accommodation you described and would have expected...

    Not recieved the little travel book and luggage tags yet from WDW?

    I think you are talking about different things. OP - I believe you are talking about the park information booklet and general info about your trip which also comes with the Disney character luggage tags which you can attach to whatever yourself. I understand these are supplied when a full...

    Dining plan confusion.

    That sounds like a good idea. It's what I'd expected when I booked. It was only searching the website for info on upgrading that I noticed it said hotel breakfast. I do love the hot breakfast at Newport bay but at the end of the day we are not going to DLP for the food !

    Dining plan confusion.

    Booked the winter offer for this December staying at Newport Bay with the free half board plus. Dining seems to have changed since our last visit and trying to find some exact information is proving difficult. I booked with Disney over the phone - the agent stated breakfast was in the park...

    New offer on UK site 25% off free half board and voucher

    Availability with the offer seems poor in early December.

    Arriving at a park for rope drop

    Same here, we've been going for 20 years plus and never made it! About 3 years ago we made a real effort - and still missed it! We always do close the park with EMH though - miss the 2 and 3 am'ers. Guess we are just night owls.

    anyone on this board affected by the new resort dog policy?

    As I said, I see where your coming from. I fully agree there is a vast difference with a highly trained service dog - my point was that people are already bending the rules. We were there for 3 weeks in July and encountered more animals, including a miniature horse, a ferret on a lead and a...

    anyone on this board affected by the new resort dog policy?

    I see where you're coming from but in any one of your previous trips at any resort you could have found your self next door to a yapping dog or encountering mess from a service/emotional support dog. Hopefully it won't be as problematic as people are anticipating and I would hope that a true...

    anyone on this board affected by the new resort dog policy?

    I too am a dog lover and owner, even if logistics allowed he would not be going. No way would I leave him in a room for 7 hours so I would never even consider it. What would make me livid is a poor dog cooped up for all that time, how miserable for them! I think it's too early to say how this...

    Post Disney Blues

    Wow $700 for one night! In several years I have mainly booked my universal part via a uk site - Expedia, hotels.com for example and had no problems and have only paid close to that price for 3-4 nights. I am signed up to both the Loews site and the universal site and receive their special...

    Post Disney Blues

    I know - crazy prices everywhere. Last year we bought a 14 day ticket for universal, only the 2 parks then. That price has gone up by almost £400 for next year. If you find anything please post, I'm all booked at RPH but need the tickets. As far as flights for August I refuse to pay Virgins...

    :stitch:Thanks for your replys. I went ahead and made my booking with them just now. As you said great, friendly service. Price was on a par with my diy but they gave me $200 gift card which matched it. Let the countdown begin :simba:

    Currency Exchange at WDW

    I agree with you about Monzo, great rates and easy to use. However I believe they are not taking new applications at the moment as they are setting up their new bank account service. To the op can you pre- order your currency , avoid airport exchange at all costs. Do you have a debit card - you...

    Thank you. I do normally piece a trip together myself but flight prices are so crazy I thought I'd shop around. Good to know they are reliable.
