Getting ready to book a honeymoon trip to Aulani and I see that the balance is due upon check in. Is there a way to make payments in the months leading up?

I've used the DDP before but for the life of me, I can't remember if there is some kind of icon on the menus at table service restaurants so we know if items are or aren't included on the DDP.

Weird question, I know, but hear me out. I booked our flight to WDW months ago (flying from a small regional airport to Chicago and then to Orlando) and I was just re-checking the flight times and I realized that on our return trip, we have 45 minutes from landing in Chicago to take off on our...

I would suggest writing down, in English, your name and cell number and giving each kid a card to keep in their pocket to show someone if they get separated from you. Also, there are a LOT of languages spoken at WDW besides English- I wouldn't be surprised if some kind passerby, hearing your...

We've never done this before but on our visit later this month we have reservations at 8. Since it isn't a restaurant and the fireworks won't start until 9, is it crucial that we get there right at 8? We also have a FP for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at 8:05 PM so I was wondering if we could...

I made my first trip to WDW back in 2007. I knew nothing about ADRs or FPs so we waited in long lines and ate a lot of quick service meals. The lines for rides didn't bug me too much but the meals were an issue because A) everyone gets cranky when they are hungry and B) at that time, IIRC, the...

Looking at all these pictures, I can't help but think how much FUN the designers of AoA must have had, adapting these films into decor for this resort!

Jeez, what DID she do? Book a flight and that's it?!

On our first night of our upcoming trip we won't be getting to Orlando until about dinner time so I thought we could spend some time exploring the Boardwalk. We won't have a vehicle so what is the easiest way to get from AoA resort to Boardwalk?

I try to play word games with my kids. Like someone says a word and then the next person has to come up with a word that starts with the last letter of the first word. Or the "I'm going on a trip" game. Or naming states. Etc.

Plan rest times into your day. When my kids were little, we went back to the hotel after lunch every day and all took a nap. Now that they are older, I've planned down time into the day where we either go relax at the hotel, or take in a show at the parks....but something where we can all sit...

I totally get what you are saying. Sometimes I feel like a lot of time I spend with my kids is me ordering them around- "Take a shower", "Do your homework", "Clean your room", etc. Especially since I work full time. It's nice when you get to have those fun moments with them.

Is WDW expensive? Yes. Is it a totally unique experience? Yes. I think that's why people are willing to pay. No one does it quite like Disney. I'm a huge theme park fan and I've been to many, all across the US and not one compares to WDW in terms of amenities, immersion into the theme, customer...

I'm in the same dilemma. My younger daughter isn't much for thrill rides but older daughter and I love them. I guess we will just work things out when we get there.

This is my first time taking my kids since my divorce. While my older child and I love thrill rides, my youngest isn't too keen on them. Do what can we do? Can she wait with us in line and then not ride and meet us at the end? Edited to add: The younger one is 10 and she meets the height...

I've already booked our vacation for late November and paid a deposit. Let's say Disney comes out with some kind of special offer during the time of our trip. Can I call them up and get in on the discount?

I'm not tired to new or used. Could you explain the above a little more. What's a waste tank? Fresh water tank? Hookups? What happens to water, say, in the sink if you need a bucket for dirty water?

Thanks for all the replies so far. I have 2 pre-teens that will be camping with me. My vehicle has a tow capacity of up to 5000 lbs. The camper will mainly be used for sleeping and cooking/eating, so no bathroom stuff is needed. Regarding brakes- do pop ups either have them or not or is that...

I'd be interested in this too, as I am considering buying one.

I've spent hours online googling but I can't seem to find some BASIC information so I was hoping you all could help me out. When I was a kid my family had a pop up camper and I have great memories of camping with them! I'm finally in a place where I can buy my first camper but I'm a bit...
