    My family (Me, my wife and our daughter) are planning a trip to universal for 8 days. We are interested in getting annual passes and noticed that the only difference between the power pass and the preferred pass is the 10% discount at the restaurants and shops. My question is this: Can I...

    RCL: Freedom of the - Southern Caribbean

    True, RCL does Nickel and Dime you but Disney does Ulysses Grant and Benjamin Franklin's you!!! There's no company that does a better job and taking your money than Walt Disney Co. I'm sorry but i cannot fathom spendingthousands of dollars in soda or wifi. just doesn't happen. I would say on...

    Jiko, Boma or Sanaa?

    boma. by far the best restaurant in all of wdw. amazing food, service and ambiance. jiko and sanaa were overrated. can get better food at my local halal food truck and pay much, much, much less.

    choosing a room on Royal Caribbean

    just got back from oasis on an eastern caribbean cruise for 7 days. we loved it. food was great, lots of activities for my 6 year old DD and activities for my wife and I. in fact, we did magic kingdom before leaving from port canaveral and my DD preferred a cruise over disney world. go figure.

    First Royal Caribbean cruise with kids

    walking from one end of the ship to other is about 10-15 minute walk. i didn't mind the walking because you will stuff yourself silly with all the food/drinks. i agree with the previous post, call royal and see if you can get the credit for your account

    A Few Strategic Planning Questions

    My wife and i loved Boma. We thought Tusker house and Jiko were highly overrated. I'm vegan and my wife is vegan and gluten free, so her culinary options are quite limited. The chef personally came out at Boma and told us what we could eat and what we couldn't. For the items that had cheese...

    One day at MK (2/24/18)

    The key is to get the fast pass right after you go through with your band. While you're waiting in line, use the app on your phone and get another fast pass. If my kid was up for it, i would've been able to get 13-15 fast passes that day. But she was tired and getting quite cranky.

    Opinions on what I did wrong...

    Best way for my family was to send down perishables (eg. water, milk and cereal) and eat breakfast at the hotel. bring down paper cups, bowls, utensils. Bring tons of fruit with us. Breakfast solved! Then the option of having a "Linner" or early dinner was key. Bring lots of snacks (ie...

    My DD is 6 years old and wants only specific rides. Hates the dark and scary rides and does NOT want to do Peter Pan (She thought it was boring). Only remotely scary one she wants to do is 7 Dwarfs Mine Train. I'm going on a very busy day (Saturday 2/24/18, princess half marathon weekend and...
