    Yes, the issue is the $150 flight credit and $1,000 in gift cards probably won't be enough to cover all 3 flights - and it is round trip. Thank you for suggesting the one-way flights. I hadn't thought of that and I can definitely book one-way flights for 3 using the $150 credit and gift...

    I need to purchase 4 flights from BNA to LGB next week. I’ve probably confused myself by overthinking, but would like advice how to achieve this purchase with points, flight credit, and gift cards. I won’t know the exact price until flights are released on Thursday, but I’m estimating cost...

    Thanks for your reply. Would the taxes and fees be turned into travel funds upon cancellation or would they be refunded to the credit card?

    I have a $150 LUV voucher that I'd like to turn into a $150 non-expiring travel fund before it expires in June. I'm a little confused about which way to book the flight I intend to cancel and how to receive credit for the fees charged: Book a $149 flight and pay the fees with a credit card...

    Even if the $23.98 taxes and fees are turned into TF when I cancel the dummy flight, I'm still having to pay extra taxes and fees by credit card which still leaves $25 unused from the $150 LUV Voucher. It will only take $125 from the $150 voucher for the flight cost. I've searched for another...

    Okay, so I just tried to book a WGA+ flight to use my $150 LUV voucher, with plans to cancel it in order to convert the LUV voucher to travel funds that don't expire. It's been a while since I booked paying cash instead of booking with points, and I evidently thought the taxes would be a small...

    A question about this - if I have a LUV voucher for $150 and I find a WGA+ flight for $149, with $5 or so taxes added, I would receive $149 refunded in travel funds, then the $5 taxes would be returned to my credit card? Or should I look for a flight that is around $140 or so instead of $149?

    I have questions about using LUV vouchers and also purchasing points. I was just issued a LUV voucher for the first time due to damage to a bag during our recent flight. Can I use the LUV voucher and combine it with points to book a flight? If so, if I need to cancel that flight, I know the...

    OK, but who is Tony Hinds?

    We had scheduled to be picked up at Portofino to return to MCO on Saturday morning at 6:45 a.m. One of Tony's drivers was there promptly at 6:40 a.m. We had no issues using Tony's drivers. I would use them again.

    PORTOFINO BAY HOTEL INFO...FAQ`s and more.......

    We just returned Saturday from 6 nights at Portofino, using the 15 month AP Seasonal Pass we bought last year. We booked Club Level and were very pleased with the Club offerings and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. If offerings ran low, they were quick to replenish them. Wine...

    OK, but who is Tony Hinds?

    I texted Tony yesterday to confirm our pickup at MCO today. I heard back from him immediately because in my text I had accidentally texted that we had 4 people with 4 bags and 4 carry on bags (each)!! He wanted to make sure we didn’t have 32 bags! I told him I should have proofread my text...

    Yes! Thank you! I totally forgot I had to book the Anytime fare because Wanna Get Away was sold out. So having Early Bird means I don’t have to check in exactly at 24 hours, just sometime before the flight?

    Does Southwest ever give complimentary Early Bird check in? I was just checking my account on the SW app for my flight next Sunday and it shows that all 4 of us have Early Bird. I did not purchase Early Bird. Our return flight was booked separately and it does not show Early Bird. I know SW...

    OK, but who is Tony Hinds?

    I’m happy to hear of this positive experience also. The positive recommendations were the reason I booked Tony and was disturbed with all the negative comments. My flight is May 29 and will report back after we arrive.

    OK, but who is Tony Hinds?

    So with all these recent bad reports about Tony Hinds' services, has anyone used him recently in the last month with a good experience to report? I, too, have reserved Tony for May 29 and June 4, so his non-response and not showing up on time is concerning.

    Recommendations for socks to wear in the parks?

    Any recommendations for dry wick socks to wear while in the parks that won't cause blisters? I've read the recommendations for shoes, but haven't seen any for socks. Last year was the first time I had issues with blisters and certainly don't want to repeat that!

    Pools at Portofino Bay

    Can anyone tell me about how difficult it is to get lounge chairs at both the Beach Pool and Villa Pool at Portofino in late May, early June, and whether there is any shaded areas or if there are umbrellas with some of the lounge chairs? I know the Beach pool has 3 cabanas, and there are more...
