Hey all!! I’ll be making a short trip August 28 to 31. Staying at All Star Movies!! Can’t wait.
Please add to the roll call!!
The Villians event goes on sale on April 29th. Is the time 7AM? We are looking to go on Aug 8, which is the last day of the event. Do you think we will have trouble getting tickets?
Hope you have a great trip!
Well we're back in the August boat - LOL! With free dining, I couldn't resist. It ended up being cheaper than a week in November at the BC, with 2 extra nights! Plus, I don't want to deal with homework while we're on vacation. Last time we did that, it was horrible. And since my daughter's dance studio will be performing at WDW in January, August will give us a few extra months between trips to save up more money.
8/14-8/23 at AKL. Soooooooo relieved we'll be missing the SWGE madness. EEK!
Can't wait! We are staying at Saratoga Springs from the 14-20th. However, we are on the wait list for the Boardwalk, so hopefully that will work out. This will be our first time in August, as we usually go in September. Fingers crossed we can brave the heat, but I am thinking it won't be much different from our September 2018 trip. Oh, and we are going to do the Halloween party for the first time ever on this trip too!
I’m (hopefully) joining! I’m going several days before SWGE opens. I’m hoping for the best. I’m just planning on going to a couple of parks and seeing Illuminations before it closes.
I went the same time last August and overdid it with the heat, so I’m definitely going to take it slower. I was going to attempt to do 4 parks in one day, but I’m still thinking.
It’s my break in school and the price was right!
I can’t wait!
Wow, lots of new August trippers have been added to the roll call since I've checked in. Off to see who will be there the same time as hubby and I.
You've been added to the Roll Call. I am a Star Wars fan, and will be missing the opening by about 10 days, but I am absolutely fine with that. It will be insanely crowded, and only one of the two rides will be open. I am more than happy to wait another year, or two, before seeing it.Just bought tickets for MNSSHP for August 23rd! Will be my third party, my sister’s first. We are staying at AoA 8/20-25 then heading over to Universal for a few nights. Not Star Wars fans so we are good with our dates missing opening of the new land.
Logged into Southwest this morning hoping our desired outbound flight was still $87. Was planning to purchase on Wednesday. Already have our return flight. I was keeping an eye on it because there was one particular flight that would allow my mom and me to get close to a full day's work in prior to flying out; but still get into Orlando at a decent time. Leaves here at 6:30pm and arrives at MCO at 8:30pm. We've been really fortunate that all of our trips so far have been non-stop flights. Kind of spoiled.
Went in and the flight was $69. Went ahead and booked it so we're set on flights. Booking rooms and ordering tickets on Wednesday. Not how I usually plan; but trying to pay for most of this trip so my mom doesn't suffer from sticker shock before she develops her own feelings for the place. Hoping to make it so she only has to pay for her food and maybe her ticket; but food only is the ultimate goal. I'm ordering the military salute tickets so that will be a big help. Should get them in time to book fast passes.
Hey all, just curious, are there any crowd calendars for Blizzard beach or do we just assume all August is super busy haha. We have never been to a waterpark before and just today decided maybe we would try one this year with our 3 year old. Just wondering if there are any days that are better to go then others.
Thanks
Wow that's an awesome price. We can only get flights that cheap on allegiant. I booked on release day for Southwest because the flight I want always sells out from our airport.Logged into Southwest this morning hoping our desired outbound flight was still $87.
