4. Do you vacation in DLR, WDW, Hilton Head, Vero or Aulani? If so, how often?
WDW - typically 2 x's a year. Try to maximize AP's

We tend to travel the most to WDW. We usually go at least 2 x's a year to WDW. We have visited Aulani 4 times. Was suppose to go to VGC in June for grandson's first birthday.
5. Are you a DLR AP holder and/or WDW AP holder?
We have WDW passes, have carried those for last few years. We use to have the Premier Passes and the price has just increased so much. I remember when we purchased them for $800.
6. What is your favorite airline when traveling to WDW and why?
First preference would be Jet Blue, but last year they dropped their daily non-stop to Orlando from LAX. At one time we use to fly them out of Long Beach direct, even though it was a bit further for us than LAX, with less travelers it was actually easier to fly of there. Also miss the Virgin America flights. We have been mainly flying Delta lately, also using the AmEx to save on luggage fees.
7. When is your next trip to WDW?
November 11th, January 2021 both WDW & DLR (if opened)
8. What is your average length of stay when visiting WDW?
10 nights, we try to maximize our trips. Wish it could be full 2 weeks, but can't be away from work for that long. Will have longer trips in a few years once retirement hits.
9. Favorite WDW park?
Animal Kingdom, followed by Magic Kingdom
10. Favorite DVC resort?
AKL, VGC, BLT, Aulani & Boulder Ridge (have lots of them) Love them all for different reasons
11. What do you find to be your biggest frustration planning a WDW trip?
Yep, agree with others the early mornings for FP & ADR's
