    Jordan's quick March WDW trip

    Jordan's March Disney trip with her daughter, niece, and sister was fast-paced but successful, staying at Pop Century, hitting all four parks with smart planning and minimal waits. Despite crowds, high Lightning Lane costs, and a few hiccups, the strategy made the most of a short stay.   Links: Pop Century Review Review: Wait Magic and Standby Skipper Lightning Lane Calculator Small World Vacations Walt Disney World Request March at Disney World   Leave me a message (including trip report submissions) Please use the SpeakPipe link below to leave us a message with your first name, location, and trip info.

    Krysta's land/sea trip w/her sister

    In this episode, I chat with Krysta about her sisters-only land and sea trip that combined Disney World and a Disney Cruise on the Fantasy. They stayed at the BoardWalk, used Lightning Lanes at EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom, and sailed to Lookout Cay and Nassau with plenty of adult-area time and a Remy's brunch.
