Girl, you done good. Love the two phone calls at once. Been there, done that along with two websites up and running on the laptop. Don't you love it? You feel like you should be a travel agent. Sounds like the makings for a perfect trip. Can't wait to hear the rest of the story.

Just got caught up with your Pre-Trip Report plans Amy! I'm going in September too but I'll be there the 4th through the 7th! How great that you were able to take advantage of the free dining! Sounds like you have most of your plans set.

Talking Update 5/12

Ok Ladies and Gentlemen if we could put all carry on items in the overhead bins or under the seat in front of you we can continue on down the taxiway.

So when we left off I had just changed my vacation in a MAJOR way I changed the dates!! So lets have a small review before we find out if we are walking from the airport to WDW!!!

Who: Amy (25) and her mom Angela (52)
When: 9/11/2007-9/18/2007
Where: WDW
Staying at: Caribbean Beach Resort

So I had everything booked that was important except for how to get from the airport to WDW. When our dates were in June I had found a great deal through Alamo that gave me TRIPLE credits on Southwest and a great rate.

Well now I had to find out what we wanted to do for our trip in September. Now Magical Express is a great thing for those who don't mind relying on Disney for transportation or who don't feel comfortable driving in Orlando and the area around it but as my mom and I like to drive to the parks and around the city we like to rent cars.

One its the control issue for me as I like to control our vacation and know that I'm responsible for my getting there and going around and don't have to rely on anyone else.

Two since we are going to be living there having a car gets us to learn the roads the signs the area and if we have free time we can explore different areas for places to live!

So now I was assigned the task of finding a rental car at a rate that wouldn't break our bank and also would allow us to use our Debit Card and Round trip ticket as we don't want to use our Credit card since it has such a low limit and could be used for an emergency or something.

I started off with Mousesavers up so I could get all the discount codes I could find on one window. Then I opened up a 2nd window and i started with Alamo. We have used them the most in our past trips and while the line can be long it usually moves fast and we have been happy with the service we have received plus they have given us the best rates in the past. I found with my Costco membership and a coupon a Mid Size SUV for the best discount for our trip.

In the past we have rentals that were under $200 for a week but never traveling in September we weren't sure what to expect. Well the rate was more then I was used to but not the worst I have ever seen though. I booked it.

Then I checked National, Budget, Avis for their rates but the Alamo rate was the lowest I could find. Plus the other companies i wasn't sure of their service and rules. So we will just have to keep checking for new discounts and rates.

The only thing that we lost really was the Triple credits as i later found out that the offer expired end of June so Maybe they will run it again for september but i still got a good rate!

So Lets Recap:

Hotel- CBR ...Check
Airfare- Southwest Airlines...Check
Rental Car- Alamo....Check
Dining Plans.... with free dining and more days I hope we don't starve.... must get done!

Up Next... Do we eat or do we go hungry?

Great update Amy.

If you don't want to stand in line for your car - register on the Alamo.com website for Quicksilver - a free membership that allows you to skip the line completely and even check in for your car before you arrive!!!
