  • Would really like to try this restaurant in DownTown Disney. I no they do vouchers/coupons and these meal deals called Take 1, but can't find them anywhere.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks in advance

    TBH I wouldn't bother. It's expensive for what you get and quality and service isn't as good as it should be, although the £15 a head deal seems decent enough value if you really want to go.

    We bought our park tickets from Attraction Tickets Direct and got a free $10 PH voucher which we used to buy drinks in the bar at lunchtime, because it was pretty quiet at that time we could walk around and have a good look at everything on display on all floors without people being in the way/being in other diners' way.

    I'd recommend going for a drink and a nosey during a quiet period then hot-footing it across to Wolfgang Puck's! :D

  • Hi All

    just a quick question for starters and that is: Is it possible to use Tesco club card vouchers on just flights, or do I have to book the full package with them?
    I went with them 3 yrs back but was looking to hire the villa and car myself and book flights using vouchers

    Thanks in advance for any answers
    Nice to save.

    Finally got my husband to agree to go to Florida for my 30th and Christmas 2013.
    I know it's a long way off but it will take us that long to pay! I went twice as a child but I don't quite know where to begin so a few questions I could do with answering for starters are;

    When should I expect the flights to become available for that time?
    Who are the cheapest to fly with?
    When should I look at booking a villa to stay in?
    Anything else I need to know or be looking at this far in advance?

    Thanks so much I am sooo excited right now!!!!!:j:j:j

    Just to say Christmas is horrendously busy..3 to 4 hours queues for rides, parks in stage 3 shutdown by 11am, 192 and the I4 a carpark...not to mention the weather which has been really cold for the last 3 years (-2 some days last year).
    That said christmas is a fab time to go for a 2nd visit when you aren't to fussed about doing the rides/shows and just want to soak up the ambience. Worth checking out the dibb for ways to make the most out of a christmas visit.

    Also to add onto mmm, LianeB might want to consider going around 28th Dec, decorations are still up and they still do everything Xmassy, you can go to Epcot for NYE - and then on 3rd Jan everyone else goes home and it is dead quiet!! It is also cheaper to go after Xmas.

    We went to Epcot at 8pm and got in for NYE celebrations without queues. Lots of live music in the different areas, everyone sang auld lang syne, we had a brilliant time there and we still have our Epcot NY party hats they give away.

    Sorry Del, but your reply could be a little misleading (unless this has very recently changed or you know something we don't :D)

    According to Clubcard's website you CANNOT book fly-drive only and use Clubcard vouchers, you must also book accomodation.

    Bookings must include a minimum of 7 nights’ accommodation, and accommodation must be booked for the full duration of the holiday. Tokens cannot be used against V. Hot Deals or the Virgin Holidays HIP Hotels brochure. Tokens cannot be used against Virgin Holidays Cruises or any other cruise product featured within Virgin Holidays brochures. Redemptions exclude accommodation only, flight only, fly drives, flight upgrades, hotel room upgrades, car upgrades, car insurance, fuel taxes, airport taxes, excursions, holiday insurance and any other optional extras. Tokens cannot be combined with any other offer or discount including Frequent Virgin Club discount.

    Well just got our first quote for a 2 week trip to Florida in April next year - not as bad as I was expecting to be fair though we are purposefully going out of the school holiday times! Only 6 months to go! No doubt I will be back on here in a few weeks gathering up advice that is no doubt covered in the other 211 pages!
