Lizzy Dorie 777 1 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Ok, just want to hear from you guys what you would do. Right now the free dining plan runs thru the end of March. But, I know Disney has in years past, when one expires the next one is right behind it. So we are still booked for FW the first week of June, but I recalculated our stay at Port Orleans with a free DP and we would save $500. Granted we would save money if we didn't book the DP for our June trip, but unlike you Lucky Florida Fiends,we are only able to come down about every other year. So we really enjoy eating out. I hope all that makes sense. Any thoughts are welcomed.Dorie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
doodlebug....Cherie 461 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I recalculated our October trip to stay at the French Quarter. Yes we would save a few bucks but knowing I am in my own bed is worth it. We will be staying at the Fort :banana: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thecplusplusguy 7 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Stay at the Fort, I would have a hard time sleeping in a hotel. Even a Disney hotel.Dan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BouncingTiggers 98 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 This is the same problem we are having. It's hard to not chose the fort just because we love it so much. Right now I can think of a dozen reasons not to stay at a resort. However I can only think of one reason not to stay at FW. Good luck it's a hard decision. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 We've been camping at the fort for 25 years. In 2004 we went down to attend our son's Disney wedding -- it was a short trip, so DH didn't want to tow the trailer down. We stayed at POR and were absolutely miserable! Small, dark rooms. Inadequate lighting at night. Small pool. On and on. DH even went over to the fort one afternoon. I wouldn't go because I knew it would just make me more homesick.I will probably never get the DP because I don't want to spend so much of my time in restaurants. I can eat out at home, and much of Disney's food isn't that noteworthy anyway. Would much rather spend my time enjoying the parks and the fort. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lizzy Dorie 777 1 Posted August 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Thanks for the feedback. Right now we are staying at FW. I certainly can't make a decision about something that hasnt even happened, but I do appreciate everyones thoughts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
campingpixi 11 Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 We always get the dp cause I do not like to cook when I am on vacation.. plus paying for my food ahead of time makes my life easier, the food is gonna be crappy weather I pay for it before I get there or right on the sopt!:rofl2: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
