We have 3 trips planned for this year.
It is just DH & me. We have APs that are good til October, so we are making good use of them. Also, we got 2 SW credit cards for DH last year when they had the 60,000 bonus points offer & just completed our spend. He should get the companion pass by the end of the month. So having the tickets already & free airfare is a big reason we are doing the 3 trips.
Jan 29 - Feb 1. POR standard room $534 (
travel agency rate)
Disney After Hours 2 tickets with AP discount $180
Airfare: DH $210 round trip
Me - flying on points
April 14 - 20 YC Cl $4105 (UOC)
April 20-21 BC WV $546
Airfare: DH $225
Me Free, will book with DH's companion pass
Sept 9 -12 YC CL $2205
Sept 12 - 15 GF RPC $2200
(Both of these were booked as bounceback rates in December)
Airfare: waiting for SW to release these dates to book for DH (probably on points)
I will fly free with the companion pass
We have a Tables in Wonderland card. We eat mostly at table service places & will have breakfast in the lounge during our April & September stays. I don't really budget, we just eat what we want. So I can't estimate those costs ahead of time. We don't drink, so no alcohol costs. We don't really get souvenirs any more, so no costs there. And I have at least $300 Disney visa rewards to use towards dining costs.
In all, considering we are making 3 trips & 2 of them are club level, I don't think the costs are too horrible. We are celebrating our 40th anniversary in September, so we are OK with splurging!
