No - this link will show you what they can be used for. If it isn't listed, you can't do it.

I seriously doubt Wiki would have all the answers on the Law of Equity

No, being 27 would not make you a trainee, yes even trainees are well paid at my firm (Year 1 trainees earning £27,000) and you have no idea what policies my firm offers in terms of career breaks (sabbaticals) or holidays be them earned or compassionate.

You are making far too many assumptions and we are spending far too much time in pursuit of my place of work.

So please, lets just leave this now.

Guys

Unless anyone works for Disney or Universal or Virgin or anything connected with Florida then its not relevant to the discussion really. I have been catching up on posts etc and can see its gone way off topic at places.

I am sure no one means to offend, we all have different ways of being funny etc and some people do not think its funny. I am not defending anyone and its a free world and freedom of speech etc but I would hate to see anyone not post becuase of the response they get or think they might get.

There are a lot of lawyers on here though.... Mmmm I wonder what I do for a job LOL

Cheers

Hardly anythings free. Don't believe everything virgin tell you, they aren't the best but they do cost a lot more.

I've only been direct once and was NOT impressed at all.

Always book your car hire separately.

You should have a listen to the Disney Brit Podcast ep 18 (just out) and we debate the merits of DIY or Travel agents

Hi - could you tell me where is the best place to get tickets for this? Should I buy in the uk or wait until I get to Orlando (going at end of Aug this year).

Thanks

I tend to buy the tickets from the nearest Wal Mart to the show. Thats normally best

Do people recommend the Disney Dining Plan? Going to Orlando in August (not booked yet!) but am debating staying in a Disney hotel compared to a villa. (Always stayed in a hotel a little way out of Disney before).

If we book now we get the Disney Dining plan for free - is it worth it? We usually would not book full board at a hotel because we like to try different places and atmospheres, but obviously with the Disney Dining Plan there are lots of oppurtunities for different places to eat.

So, question is, is it worth it, how do you find it works for you, and is it a good moneysaver! We wouldn't plan to spend all the time in parks, but if we were at a Disney hotel could eat there, or try other hotels.

Thanks

If you are staying on Disney property then yes go for free DDP for sure. You have the largest selection of places to eat I know off all with free transportation to and from and you cna now even boo your reservations for dinner ON LINE!!

DDP is a great freebie and remember if you do not use your credit for one night you can save it for the next or another night as some of the restaurants need two credits etc.

I'm currently looking at Disney Tickets for my December trip.

There are 2 options for me as I see it ...

7 Day premium ticket for £200 or 3 Day Magic Your Way Base with 3 days free for £137 (essentially I've allocated 1 day per park for Disney with maybe an extra day or so if I can't get round everything)

I'm not currently planning on hopping or water parks so the Base ticket will on face value save me £63 per person. I'm just concerned there may be some gotcha's to consider. Should I be considering hopping?

Advice would be appreciated!

Here is some tips for you on tickets.....

If you add hopper then it will cost you $50 per day per ticket so I never do it. I am quite happy to spend a day in a park and if need be go back tot he hotel adn return to the same park that day.

There is a comparision site out there for Disney tickets which is on the https://www.touringplans.com website in the left hand side Check that out and see the cheapest place to get your tickets from.

Just looking at flights in November, and the cheapest I can find is £705 for two, flying economy from Manchester with US Air. As I have only just started looking, not sure if this is a good deal, would I be better waiting a bit, and do US Air have a good reputation?
Thanks

November is not an expensive time to fly save for Thanksgiving but you may well be able to get a direct flight for that price. take a look, as Simon suggested, at Kayak.co.uk and also travelsupermarket.com. Also book tickets ia quidco.co.uk for Virgin and get an extra 2% off
