A 7 day stay for 5 (Me, DH, Mother in law (aka Grandma!), DS age 11 and granddaughter age 5 ) at BWV - 1 Bedroom with 6 days of tickets and Dinning Plan (1 TS, 1 QS, 2 Snacks/day)

October 7-14, 2017

* BWV - 1 Bedroom - rented DVC points: $2241
* 6 Day Tickets - 1 park 1 day: $1789
* Dinning Plan: $2223
* Total Cost: $6253 or $179/person/day

We still need to add in transportation costs and MNSSHP tickets!!

Can't wait to experience a "multi-generational" trip! Grandma and Granddaughters 1st time!!
 
I am almost ashamed to even write this - it's the most we have ever spent on a family vacation, but this is also why we only go once every other year.

6/24-7/1, 2017
6 people - 2 adults, 3 teenagers (ages 15, 13 & 13) and a 1 5yo
2 connecting rooms at POFQ
6 day base tix
DxDDP

$9600

We always drive so we don't have to pay for airfare at least. Really hoping some room discounts come available for our dates/hotel to help offset. Plus we will have about $1000 in Disney Visa reward dollars to apply.
 
Party of 4 (1 adult, 3 kids, dd 15, bestie 15, ds 12)
Beach Club 5 nights
6 day hoppers plus 1 day at TL
DDP (character meals make it worthwhile plus each one will have something that the kids will like)
4754

Airfare is still high so hoping it'll go down. Worst case I'll drive but that's 13 hours as a single driver. Ug!!!
 


Assuming we get the reservation (happening next week!) and airfare doesn't change drastically from 2016, this is the cost for 3 adults visiting December 17-20, 2017:

3 nights at VGF studio (renting points) = $816
3 3-Day Park-Hoppers = $856.21 (Disney Visa sign-up bonus $200 gift card and discounted gift cards from Sam’s)
3 DxDP = $890.01 (using discounted gift cards from Sam’s)
3 round-trip tickets RDU-MCO-RDU with Southwest = $33 (Southwest Visa sign-up bonus)

Total: $2595.22*

*around $1200 of this came from credit card sign-up bonuses, regular cash back earnings, and selling a couple of things on ebay.
 
Late-Feb/Early-March

2 adults 7 nights at ASMu (Preferred)
Resort + DDP = 1,800
7 day PH tickets = 838
Flight = 582
Total = 3,220
 
Late Feb/ Early March
2 adults, 2 children (8 & 4)
5 nights @ ASSp Preferred w/ DDP
5 day PH
Total=$2876.27

We're driving this go-round, so no airfare.
 


We are staying 9/21-9/30, 3 adults:

3 Days at UO at Cabana Bay with 2 day park to park tickets, 9/21 to 9/24 (poolside room): $1279.60
7 Days at ASSp with 6 day park hopper tickets, 9/24 to 9/30 (standard room): $2239.05

Total: $3518.65 REALLY hoping for free dining during that period!

This is not counting airfare!
 
Last week of August 2017

7 nights at POR Garden View w/free dining (booked on Bounceback) for 2 adults, 1 child 6 yrs.
5 day Park Hoppers
$3053

Southwest flights w/points. Taxes and Early Bird will be figured at booking.

We figure our trip will be close to if not slightly over $4K with shopping, tipping, adult beverages, airline fees...etc.
 
We made a slight change to our trip so I wanted to rerun my numbers.

2 adult /3 kids - 8 days

5 nights at CBR - $1098
2 nights at CR - Theme park View Room(!) - $1241
5 - 6 day Park Hoppers + WP&M upgrade - $1941
food estimate (using the dining calculator) - $2100

total - $6380
$160/person/day
(still not a bad deal when you squeeze 5 in a room)

And flight is an additional $490 for the 5 of us.

Much easier to deal with when it's not all coming out of the wallet at once...yikes
 
Me, DH, DD11 and DD7.

1 night at offsite hotel: $125
Legoland tickets: $200
1 night at The Fountains: $0
7 nights in a 1 bedroom at Saratoga Springs: $0 (wonderful in-laws!)
7 day hoppers: $1700
Food and extras: $2,000 budget
Gas: $200

Approximately $3200. But that's 9 nights with 7 onsite. Can't really complain! And I don't think we will spend $2000 in food and extras.
