How : Air
Where: Offsite: Debbie's Aunts house

Last : Disneyland 3/89, Disneyworld 5/88
This is a spur of the moment vacation ( aren't they the best) due
to Deb's aunt being close to Orlando and a friend offering us FREE
round trip bonus certificates. The trick is going to be getting that
flight out of Logan on 2/11. As of now I know of a flight in the AM
that is not totally booked that I hope to get a reservation on. The
big problen is the certificates only allow you to reserve 24 hrs in
advance. I'm still very optomistic !!!!!!!!!!!

When : October 1990
How : Air
Where: Haven't decided yet.
Why : Because we haven't been to Epcot or MGM.
Last : 1980 with two teenage sons.
Haven't decided where to stay. Last time we were in the
Contemporary and we loved it. Hear great things about the
Floridian. One of our sons gave us two four day passes for a
Christmas present. All package deals include park tickets so I
guess we would be better off making our own airline and hotel
accommodations. Any suggestions. We will be going for 8 days.
Have also thought of the cruise/park combination.

158.43 | a GANG in JUNE | OFFPLS::HODGES | | Sat Feb 24 1990 09:05 | 15 |
| My MAJOR trip this year will be a family jaunt (at least 11 of us!
My husband, daughter and I, my mom, my brother, sister-in-law and their
3 kids, my husband's sister and her husband) in June, staying at the
MARRIOTT WORLD CENTER (because I have frequent 'sleeper' points to cover
most of the cost!) for 6 nights. We'll be there June 24-30th. It'll
be hot, but it's the best time for all concerned. The rest/swim time
in the middle of the day is actually a nice break from all the
'visuals' of WDW.
I was there just for an evening a couple of weeks ago (business at the
Space Center!) and we (my daughter and I) may be there next week-end as
we're going to Tampa for a few days over winter vacation and she wants
to go to Pleasure Island.

and Sarah decided she wanted to start her tan before she goes
with her 8th grade class to Washington, DC, the following week.
The rest of the family went on a long weekend trip in Feb, so this is
her payback. Of course, Mom gets to go on both (after all, I won the
tickets).

only $269! Thats only $134.50 for each one of us. Because we are
honeymooners we will be getting a free upgrade on the rent a car,
booked into the best room available at all the hotels we will be

158.83 | 2 weeks notice-I love it! | SNELL::HIGGINS | A Real Bugger | Tue Jun 19 1990 13:05 | 15 |
| This a reply to my origional reply in .27.
Due to circumstances beyond my control, I am heading to WDW
on July 3-10 instead of Nov 16-25. What a bummer, eh? :*)
We were origionally going to take the train ($850 for 6 people)
but the airfare for us is only $750 non-stop! De-regulation is
great, isn't it? The problem is is that now the hotels are
expensive. Oh well, they get you one way or another.
The next two weeks will be hectic as we prep for this last minute
vacation. I'll post a trip report (weather data included) when
I get back.
14 days (instead of 149) and counting!
