    Taking Winnie on a Wonder Cruise - A February Mexican Riviera Trip - All wrapped up 6/14

    Allie, also a long time lurker. I was also so sorry to hear of Fran's passing. Your trip reports brought so many smiles and I loved Fran's sense of humor (and yours, too!). She will be greatly missed. I love your strength in moving on and getting support from your friends. It's definitely...

    8am booking issues at 7months

    Glad you got it but here's some further advice... I could not get my 2 bedroom (VGC) at 8 am for this summer. I was able to get the 1 bdrm and made peace with that. For some unknown reason, I checked one more time at 10 pm that night and the 2 bdrm was there and I got it for all dates. This...

    Checking in at port w big group

    Is this correct? I am sharing a stateroom with two others from different household and I thought we all had to check in together. It would be such a relief if we could do it separately (they are flying in and using Disney Transport; I am driving).

    New England Meets Thread: Kings of New England; Princes of Maine

    We ended up having to cancel our trip (which would have been last month). We are planning to do it on our own Summer 2023. I would love to hear favorite activities from this itinerary. We are starting in Boston then going to Maine then to NH, VT (kind of a backwards ABD). Love to know what...

    Grand Cayman: Coral Beach Club on Seven Mile Island

    We just went on this last week. I wanted to only do Disney Excursions this time because we are out of practice on cruising! This was expensive for what it was. You could do it more cheaply and easily on your own. That said, the tour provider was very professional and it was organized very...

    Begging and bullying from servers in the MDRs for excellent ratings on the end of cruise survey/comment card

    We had the most amazing time in Remy on the Dream! I hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Guillermo, the sommelier, is wonderful! Candido was our server every night and he was terrific (just moved up from MDR too!) We felt like Remy had become our MDR. We will miss it on the Magic. We will...

    Begging and bullying from servers in the MDRs for excellent ratings on the end of cruise survey/comment card

    We totally skipped the dining room on our last cruise (last week) for the reasons mentioned by OP. We ate in Remy 3x and Palo 2x and had a wonderful time. The service there was excellent. We still tipped the MDR team even though we never saw them. It made my time much more enjoyable. I don’t...

    System still a mess

    Availability is all messed up for VGC. I am trying to book for 7 months out. Shows availability and then when I try to book, it says I am not in the time period (select a date after August 11th...hmmmm....). It is just really messed up. Very Frustrating. Most other rooms are showing no...

    Southern California and Disneyland Adventure

    San Diego is a great idea. We stayed at the Del Coronado and had a blast. I did a trip report. The link is below. It was pre-days before our cruise. For our pre-days before Backstage Magic, we stayed in the Beverly Hilton and did a pool day. We also went to the Dodgers game (highly...

    New England Meets Thread: Kings of New England; Princes of Maine

    Looks like all but two dates have no more EBD; waitlists for all Fall Foliage; and prices are up on most departures. Sounds like these dates all have a pretty good chance to make. Good news!

    New England Meets Thread: Kings of New England; Princes of Maine

    Glad it looks like it is selling well. Looks like the price has also gone up on the first departure.

    New England Meets Thread: Kings of New England; Princes of Maine

    I totally got sucked in, too! We had decided we were going to do all travel on our own from now on. I sat down to plan an Italy trip and was like, ugh! It seemed so much easier to let ABD do it (and I was not finding it to be much cheaper on my own). We booked that for Christmas 2022. And...

    New England Meets Thread: Kings of New England; Princes of Maine

    Sorry, I could not resist the John Irving Quote. So excited for this one. We are 5 folks on the 7/25 departure. Let's start discussing pre- and post-days!

    New Trip Announcement

    We booked New England for the 7/25 departure. I was pretty excited about the itinerary as I had been mulling a trip to the same area. So much easier for ABD to plan it for me! Anyone else booking today?

    Summer 2022 Dates are out on the ABD website

    We just booked Italy for Christmas 2022. We got the EBD despite waiting until today. We have a great TA who is always totally on the ball. We have not done that trip but know it's a favorite of many. I blame Stanley Tucci (if you have not seen his show on CNN be sure to catch it!) for making...

    AP Preview for VelociCoaster

    How do you get a preview AP email? Is it just luck? We are there Memorial Day Weekend. Crossing or fingers. Any tips?

    Sapphire Falls opening before summer?

    I have been clueless about the UO hotels being closed. I unknowingly booked the APH rate at SF for Memorial Day weekend with no issues. Hoping it reopens. I am just going to keep my room with the knowledge that they will rebook me if there are problems. It's our first stay at SF (Schumigirl...
