please move to the proper place if needed. wasn't sure which thread to put this question.
so I booked a trip for next June using small world vacations. the main reason I am even using a travel agent is because be our guest for dinner is a must for this trip and I know how difficult it can be to get. my travel agent informed me they do indeed book meals/fast passes, etc.... but she will not access my mde experience on the website. she also informed me I am free to book meals and fastpasses my self.
she also mentioned how I will have an hour jumpstart selecting things because the TA's don't start until 8.00. Isn't selecting meals and passes one of the main selling points to using a TA? if they don't start until an hour later then most time slots would be gone. So I can deal with this because I like to select these things on my own anyway. my problem is BOG dinner. I understand it's a good probability nothing would be available when I log in to search. I know the websites that can be used as alerts. sometimes though, I cannot access the internet at a moment's notice so I was hoping the TA would be on the lookout in case something does open up. if we book other restaurants, need to shuffle things around should a reservation for BOG open up, How would the TA be able to do this if they won't access the account?
From talking to other people it sounds like TAs for other agencies do in fact access the disney site account but small world does not.
anyone have some thoughts or experiences to share with small world? it's early enough I could jump to another company and I've only paid with a few gift cards. should I jump to another, stick with them?????
