Expertise

I was a moderator and chat host for the Walt Disney Boards on America Online and currently with www.themouseforless.com Have been to Disney World 25 times in the last 10 years and stayed on sight at many of the resorts, eaten in a lot of the restaurants and cruised on the Disney Magic and Wonder several times. I specialize in getting the most for your money and trying to get the best discounts on airfare, rooms, tickets and restaurants for vacations to Disney World. If you're looking to find the best bargains on a trip to Disney while getting the most out of the "Disney experience", I can help. My main concentration is in on-site hotels and restaurants, but I will try and help with off-site info also. Also, recently featured as a Disney Expert in the July (many years ago) issue of Time Digital Magazine!

What do you like about this subject?

I'm a Disney fanatic. From collectibles to visiting the parks to helping others.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

My goal is to eat in every restaurant and stay in every hotel on Disney Property. I figure at the rate I'm going, that could take another lifetime!!

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Were you ever a part of a ladybug release at Disney? Did you ever hear a talking trash can? Listen to a water fountain? Participate in a hidden treasure hunt in the Magic Kingdom?

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

Everyone thinks that a Disney vacation is expensive. Yes, for the most part it's true, but there are ways cut corners and save a few dollars here and there. Sometimes even hundreds!

2011-12-13 Bought the wrong ticket to the wrong park:

Kamonrat    Unfortunately, with this type of situation, Disney usually moves at a snails pace.  Have you tried calling (714) 781-4565?  That is the Disneyland ticket center.      In all cases that I know

2011-07-19 crowd information:

Stephen    Definitely 12/10-12/17.  That is probably one of the least crowded weeks of the whole year, plus you get the added bonus of all the Holiday goings on at the parks.      If you need any help

2011-06-29 Best deals:

Debra    Disney has many special deals that they release at times, (nothing for next year yet, way too early)    The walk to MGM (now known as Disney's Hollywood Studios)  is actually quite far, it's probably

2011-02-26 free dining plan:

I have not seen this commercial and am not aware of any current free dining offers for 2011.  The free dining plan for this year needed to be booked by the end of December of last year.  It was available

2011-01-05 ADVICE WHEN WE VISIT:

Cybil    Sorry about the delay in answering your question.    My primary advise would be to get a copy of one of several books out there.  One of the is called the Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World
