Matt’s runDisney and extended family trip WDW Prep To Go - a Disney World planning podcast

    • Places & Travel

Matt’s late February trip to Disney World that included Princess weekend for runDisney was “amazing, beautiful weather, mix of family and friends, and a mix of ‘go’ and ‘hold back.’” Listen as he shares about new experiences and seeing familiar attractions through his 4-year-old daughter’s eyes.
 
Financials:
Hotel $4700 (with 40% cast member friend and family discount)
Flight: $950
Rental Car: $450 (includes car seat rental)
Food: approximate $700
 
Matt redeemed Disney Visa points to help offset the cost of the hotel, and used gift cards that he accumulated to help with meals and souvenirs. The costs above are totals before discounts. Actual out-of-pocket dollars spent for food and hotel were less because of the discounted gift cards. 
 
Post trip begins: At an hour
