Disney World is expensive and it requires a lot of planning. Kids are involved for many of us. It’s become a high-stakes game where tensions are often high. The heat doesn’t help either. So here’s a thought, mainly because I have found some of the kindest, most supportive people on Disboards...

I'm working on booking a DVC stay for the end of January for four adults. I last stayed in Kidani 8 years ago, and it wasn't the best trip. My family was in the second to last section of Kidani, furthest from Jambo. The walk from the lobby was lonnnng. On check in day, we had an issue where our...

My wife and I are taking our boys (8, 6, and 3) to WDW in January for a long MLKJ's Day Weekend. We currently have our home resort (Poly) booked for the 12-15th. By the time we take this trip, we will have stayed at Poly, AKV-Kidani, and OKW. I imagine there will be availability at 7 months for...

I am on the hunt for an AKV contract, 150 points with a September UY. I get notices for ones that are 160, 200, etc. but I ignore them all because they don't match my 2 other contracts of 150 each! It's crazy, could totally use and afford that 160 contract, but it doesn't "feel" right in my...

We have our very first stay as DVC members coming up in just 8 days! Our kids still don't know we're going or that we are DVC members (they listen to the podcast with me and will be out of their minds when they find out). We're doing a 4 resort split stay: 2 nights @ Poly (studio, actually have...

Hi guys- we had a change in plans for our upcoming trip and now need a 2 bedroom. I saw it available and waited a touch too long and lost it. However, I was able to get all nights but one, 12/8/2020. Why do you think all but that one night would be available, and what is the likelyhood of it...

We are looking at buying DVC (first time) and intend on some years to rent our points out (when we don't go to Disney). Since we know this is part of the plan, we want to make sure we factor this into our decision. We are trying to decide between SS or AKV. SS is cheaper, but we're willing to...

Hi! I am a new member! Just got AKV and booked my trip :) I am thinking that I would like 11-month dibs on a resort nearer to the parks as well. VGF looks gorgeous and now with the new walkway, I think it is a good idea. BLT is also a good option. AND at the same time, BWV appeals to me for...

Hi all, First time posting here but I've been reading through the forums for several years while planning various trips. This time around, I've decided to try renting points through a broker for 4 nights in a studio in September 2020. Looking at a BWV pool/garden view during F&W, I had a...

Hi! I am looking for an Animal Kingdom Lodge recreation calendar for this month (Sept) or for October of past years. Anyone know where to find them for specific months? TIA :)
