Are you still going?

I think we had the same issue years ago and still traveled. 
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

Disaster. Feel your pain.

No one tells you any of this before having kids.

Still unsure to be honest. Will be in the doctors on Monday morning anyway & see what the story is. If doc says we’re ok we need a fit to fly cert. 
Hes over the worst of it anyway but the worry is any appear on the younger one. 
If worst comes to worst we’ve travel insurance

I think you should be ok to fly to be honest. I can't recall whether we got the cert or not.

Well we got a credit note but then I felt they were robbing us with their quotes for every holiday we we were pricing up so I ended up just asking for my money back at start of this year then just used the money to book new york on my own. 

Got everything back but 800 deposit. I have until end of 2024 to use it. Its with American holidays though so choices are limit enough in terms of you won't get a holiday without adding something extra on top yourself. My feeling is they were adding a premium on top to try get the money back as same holidays they were quoting i was pricing myself for hundreds cheaper. I'll book Boston or something for a long weekend next year I think.

Anyone have experience with Orlando and how much they spent on spending money when there?

My circumstance would be:
Breakfast is covered in hotel
no additional transport costs
probably bring a packed lunch.

So really just an evening meal (with one or two drinks) for 2 adult and the two brats (ages 14+9) buying bits and pieces in the parks.
250 Euro a day too little?




Never got to do this Cry.
Covid struck. Got a credit note but by time things opened back up its was 3k dearer and we had a new baby (Covid baby I guess people call them). Not going to spend that kind of money with a baby. We will wait until baby is older and try again (or maybe she is old enough that we don't feel bad leaving her for 2 weeks with family while we bring the older kids Big smile).


Prices for Orlando are only getting dearer too but is a great holiday especially if into theme parks and rollercoasters.

Myself and herself have booked 2 weeks for next march be over for St Patrick's day really looking forward to getting back over. Will have to watch the playoffs over there too not that it's looking likely that we will be in them

Ah we don't mind the winter. Usually winter markets and stuff that time of year so it's nice!

Still not certain where and when though. Any advice is welcome Big smile
