Everything you need to know about Disney’s new ticket prices

October 12, 2018 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

On Tuesday, October 16th, Disney World will be changing the way they sell tickets. They will begin using “date based pricing” – meaning that more popular and crowded days will be more expensive than slower times. If you think about it, this is the same way resort pricing already is and the same way flight […]

What to do the month before leaving for a RunDisney trip

October 2, 2018 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

There is a lot that goes into planning and getting ready for any Disney trip, but when you’re going for a RunDisney event you’re adding even more to your plate! Good luck to everyone heading down for Wine and Dine next month – and if you’ve got another RunDisney race in the future, save this […]

How to keep your phone charged in Disney World with Fuel Rod

August 27, 2018 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

In the past 7 years, ever since I started visiting Disney World regularly, the way we approach the parks has changed dramatically. When I honeymooned there in September 2011 I owned a flip phone that was definitely not a smart phone. I hardly used it at all – perhaps a few texts to family and […]

August 22, 2018 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

The 2018 Epcot Food and Wine Festival season is almost upon us. For 2018 it’s lasting for over 2 full months – from August 30th-November 12th. I’ll be there this year at the very end of the festival, but that doesn’t mean I can’t start planning what I want to eat and drink now! There […]

What to skip at Hollywood Studios

July 24, 2018 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

Touring plans are definitely changing at Hollywood Studios with the addition of Toy Story Land, and I imagine your approach to this park will change drastically once Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge opens (whether you’re ready to line up for hours or avoid it!). I’ve previously written my posts on What to Skip at Epcot, What […]

I already know Disney, so why would I need a travel agent?

May 23, 2018 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

As a travel agent specializing in Disney, I love to help clients plan and book their Disney trips. Perhaps the best part is that my services are free of charge to the client – I’m not being paid by them, I’m being paid in commission by Disney. So I can actually help people without them […]

What to do the week before you leave for a Disney Cruise

May 16, 2018 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

There is nothing like the frenzy of trying to get ready for a trip, at least for me. The week before I’m trying to be as organized as possible, making lists, printing important papers, doing laundry. Contrast this with my husband, who somehow always seems to be doing his laundry at 9pm the night before […]

Disney Cruise Packing List

May 3, 2018 by beckyginther@gmail.com Leave a Comment

In less than a week Jason and I will be on board the Disney Magic cruise ship for the very first time! This is our second Disney cruise, and I’ve found that packing for a trip like this is different than a regular trip to Disney World. There are certain things you’ll want to make […]

So you’re going to Disney, and you’ve decided to finally take part in a RunDisney event – congratulations! Going to Disney and including the race makes it a bit of a different experience. You not only have to conserve your energy and think about race day, you also have to pack differently than you would […]
