Thanks so much for putting this together for us.

Just used my frequent flyer miles for a plane ticket! Now all I need is a roommate.

Thanks again.

Hey Pete,

I think you have a lot of great events planned for the DIS 2001 convention. How about one more? I think a lot of DISer's would love to participate in a INFOPOP employee public flogging. I know every DISer would be willing to pay a pretty penny to get a shot at one of those guys. Especially after today, how dare they interfere with your big DIS convention announcement. Let me at those INFOPOP programmers!

I have lots of questions, here's one. Do you need to buy a Convention Theme Park Ticket, or Park Hopper, to attend the dinner in Epcot and Illuminations party, same for Fantasmic, or does your status as a Convention "delegate" get you entry without them?

Jaypd -- this may not be true, so don't shoot me if I'm wrong... I think the kid price is ages 3-9.

We already have reservations for 11/21 through 11/30. I know we can't extend due to school schedules.

Is there an option for attending 11/28-30?

How much would it be for a family of 7 (one is a baby to stay at the beach club or other resorts and take part in the convention? Can you tell me more about it, like what is it:??I am new here and read on the details and they sound great. Can anyone come??? Would there be suites for bigger families or would we need 2 rooms? Thanks

Here are a few questions I hope you can answer

1. Does the $625.06 fee for one adult and one child count if the child is 14?

2. Are there 4 day park hopper discounted tickets if you dont want Disney Quest or Pleasure Island?

3. I thought that we didn't have to send any money until July, is that true?

4. Do you have any schedule for any meets?

5. What special events is the convention going to have?

Also, im really happy Fantasmic is on the 29th. Thats my 15th birthday and Fantasmic is my favorite show in the world. I listen to that soundtrack every single night when i go to sleep and ive been doing it for 2 years. Thansk for reading my mind!

2 children-- 10 y/o, 3 y/o
@ the YC
and we want to extend 3 nights before and 1 night after (full stay would be Sun.the 25th-Mon.the 3rd)

**UPDATE** Okay, I figured out the kids...but now I am having trouble figuring my add-on days...

[luvdsny]

Okay, so for the add-on days...

We want to stay at the YC for 3 nights before and 1 night after the convention...

is the $238.65 per person perday based on double occupancy?

--and--

what is the cost per child (10 and 3) per night for the add-on days?

M-I-C...see you at The DIS convention, K-E-Y...why? Because we love Disney, M-O-U-S-Eeee...
