    Passport Question

    If it sets your mind at rest I travelled last July on my passport which expired February and I have just renewed. There was no issue as the machines can read all chips - we even used it at the Global Entry kiosks as we have GE membership now and if they can read it then ordinary booths will!

    14 day ultimate ticket to AP

    Once you check in your tickets do not affect the DDP or anything else. You can upgrade either ticket without problems. As for when and where you need to go to guest services or ticket window and from experience you will get more than one price :rolleyes:

    Virgin Car Hire/Rental vs Other Companies

    Is this booking car hire through the VA site? If so everything is included. It will be with Alamo. I have used them a couple of times before and have them booked again for July as they were a lot cheaper than anyone else I tried for my dates.

    UK Free Dining - Release Timing and Availability Period

    A few years ago the booking period was longer. In the 2 or 3 years the offer has been released in April for the following year. They book by date has tended to be in November. If you wait you may get free dining on the US site foe this November but it has very restricted dates usually.

    OKW room help please

    Just be aware 62, 63 and 64 are the only elevator buildings in the whole resort so are extremely popular. We stayed in I think it was 64 once and had massive trouble parking as there is only a tiny bit of parking for those buildings. I would probably request Turtle Pond if you want the second...

    is it doable ?

    That sounds very rushed for a last day for me and I certainly wouldn't want that early of a start - I like to finish the packing the last morning and I don't want to be up early to do that :scared: I would plan the tour another day and do a last park day with 3 FP and then lunch.

    October 2018 help!

    October and Food and Wine is now really popular so it will busy. Epcot is best avoided at the weekends as locals also come in to enjoy F&W. MNSSHP is great - we love it and have been a couple of times. As for rooms I suspect Disney UK have sold their allocation for now as there is all room...

    Multi-Coast Honeymoon help needed, please!

    We did DL in 2016 and have booked flights to go back next summer. With Disney tickets I searched and searched and couldn't find any discounts worth worrying about so bought direct from Disney on arrival. Last time we did 4 nights (3 full park days) before going to Orlando next year we will do...

    virgin premium economy sale

    In the last sale I did see some PE seats around the £800 mark which is good and about as low as they go these days. They usually have a sale over Christmas.

    virgin seating

    If its just two of you in E I would pick the last rows downstairs in E. When I took DD on my own in May we had these seats - they felt more spacious than the bubble we had on return as you are in a pair and there is space next to the window seat :goodvibes

    Currency Exchange at WDW

    You will get a very poor rate I would imagine - unless you need actual cash I would look at a pre-paid card (not sure if you have got time?) or using a low/no fee credit card. Have a look at: http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/travel/cheap-travel-money - should give you the best idea of how to...

    Volcano Bay in December....

    We have done 4 December trips. The weather can vary a lot - we have seen frost and have baking hot days. Sun is still strong when out so the suit is probably a good idea :goodvibes

    I haven't traded pins for years so can't help with that - sorry. On the gift cards they can only be bought in the US. :sad1:

    Alamo Skip the Counter

    I think there is a link on the booking email for online check in - once complete you print the page off and it tells you to go straight to the garage

    Tickets for short trip

    Try Undercover Tourist - always use them for MYW tickets although I don't think anyone offers much of a discount on the short tickets.

    Disappointed with Virgin

    The rooms on the right as you enter the resort are now the Cooper Creek Villas and they have also built some cabins by the water. They are a separate DVC resort from the existing villas which are now the Bolder Ridge Villas. It has halved the number of hotel rooms available now though.
