[img]graemlins/wavin.gif[/img] Hi, Ladybelle! As far as tips go for a 19 month old...I would definetly bring a stroller if you are traveling by plane. MCO airport is very crowded and the airport security check point for departures had the longest line I've ever seen!!! [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] I am not kidding. The line appeared to be about 45 mins. to an hour long. My dh, MIL & FIL stood in this line for about 5 mins. without moving more than 2 paces [img]images/icons/mad.gif[/img] while I brought the girls to see the fountain in the lobby area. Luckily, an employee saw me join my family in line, she said, "Hey, you with the stroller! This is the stroller line." So, we very quickly left the LLLOOONNNGGG line that rivaled the Great Wall of China and she let our entire party go through this checkpoint. We felt guiltier than we did at the Winnie the Pooh ride with a fast pass!
Other tips:
-If you have a Baby Bjorn, bring it.
-Have your ds's favorite snacks in a backpack, and don't give them to him for a few days before the trip! He'll be so excited when you break them out during a meltdown.
-Crayons and bubbles are lifsavers.
-Grumpette's favorite parks were AK and MK, although she did enjoy the rides at Epcot and the Living Seas.
-Don't forget Motrin.
-Be sure to check out the Carnation baby stations for changing diapers, etc. When it came time to change a diaper, I took the toilet seat covers (about 20 of them) and covered the changing area. I didn't like to put my personal changing pad on that germ-ridden area & then put it in my backpack.
-But the best thing for waiting in line is the Fast Pass [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Good Luck, it wasn't that bad! [img]graemlins/wavin.gif[/img]
