What else are you going to do in California?
My husband keeps laughing at me for spending so much time on these boards, and still having 7 months to go... He thinks I'm going to have every second planned out. I'm not that bad, but I will have our Character Meals planned out, and the Halloween Party night in a spreadsheet, as well as the park hours for the day, and the days Aladdin is on.
Do APs get Preferred Seating for Aladdin, or is that something you only get when you buy a travel package?
Is this part of the DISboard the "Disney Trip Planning forum" and "Theme Park Attractions and Strategies" technically for WDW trips? I'm just wondering if there's a good place for us to start a OMDD Trip Planning thread, since of the 16 of us on here, only 5 or 6 of us are doing DL. I think the first post needs to have our name, where we are going, dates, and what hotel we will be staying in.
Good luck to all out there. I hope they update the names soon...
Still no word back on my itinerary...sent my travel questionnaire back on 2/15 and got the email that it was received and they were working on our trip....should I call, or just wait it out?
Yes as long as it is through another phone or email registered in a different name. The address they refer to in the rules is email address.
Good luck to all this week!

That is when I sent mine too. I got the hotel itinerary only on Friday. Are you going to WDW? I know my contact was out of the office on Friday because I emailed that morning to see if I could just get the hotel confirmation and someone else emailed me back saying he was gone and they were kind enough to send the hotel info for me. Guess it will be awhile until I get the airfare info. Initially he told me it could be up to 30 days.
Yep! WDW. And we are locals (about an hour away) so, I guess I assumed it would be easy planning not having to deal with airfare and everything..
I am a huge planner and organizer so I bought this binder to keep track of everything - hotel and air reservations, dining info/reservations, etc. Since we are extending our stay in California by a week, my binder has gotten full with all the extra stuff. I had to buy a new binder yesterday that was thicker to be able to hold all my stuff... and I still have 5 months to add stuff to it!
To be honest when I talked to our guy last week he seemed a bit frazzled. Very nice of course, but frazzled. He did say he was planning a lot of trips right now. We had a laugh about it, because I would love to do that for a living! I would just call and ask if it wouldn't be too much trouble to get your hotel info. That's what I did and the were very accomodating. I really don't think I would have gotten it as quickly if I hadn't asked.
We are going to the San Diego Zoo because I have heard that is is so awesome and we will probably never get to California again to go to it. And we really want to site see in Hollywood - Chinese Theater, Hollywood Sign, Beverly Hills, the beaches, etc. You know, all the touristy things! It's sounds cheesy, I know, but this is such a great opportunity for us to get to Cali and we want to be able to see what we can in So Cal in one trip. Eventually we really want to get to San Francisco, but that is going to be years away, I'm sure!
Wow! You're on top of things! I've got the papers they've sent me all over the table next to me buried under bills and schoolwork. LOL! I'm trying to finish a class and when that's done I'll have so much free time to plan. I don't know much about DL so it will be fun. I'm so glad that the dining reservation system is different at DL and I don't have to figure out where we're eating right now.
We're staying in California for a week after DL as well. We're planning on heading down to San Diego and going to the zoo and 2 days at Legoland, then spending the rest of our time at the beach. I can't wait!
PS-I don't even want to admit how many times I've been checking my email per day. If I even pass my iPad I'm opening my email quickly to check lol.
I hope to receive my questionaire this week. How was everyone's received so far? My eyes are spinning from reading all the info so I don't recall if it is sent email or mail. I remember someone mention their questionaire for DL came snail mail.
I HAVE to recommend the Blue Bayou inside POTC! It is a little pricey, .ake sure you go for lunch not dinner, but it is delish and the atmosphere is great! We always get the Monte Cristo Sandwich!
