Any solo travellers to Disney? I'm thinking of doing a solo trip.
Any good suggestions for solo travelers?
Any good suggestions for solo travelers?
Something I didn't mention, I usually book my hotel stays for two people even though it will just be me. This is for safety reasons. The exception to that rule is if I book WDW as a package. Then your paying for two so it doesn't make sense. However if I book a room only reservation then I do book the room for two as then it looks like I'm not alone. Again, its only for safety reasons but it can be a deterrent and it doesn't cost anything extra as long as its room only.
Just something to think about.
I was worried about the security checks for my recent trip. Traveled with one of my daughters so it was just us 2, and sometimes either myself or (adult) daughter would be alone in room.I am a bit thoughtful about the security checks Disney is doing.
I think I will just step out of the room for the checks.
I know it sounds weird but I just would feel more comfortable doing that.

When i was charged with finding something for a sanity break one year I wasn't sure what to do because for the same reason that hubby wanted to do nothing I was craving something to do! He had been stupid crazy busy to the point that we hadn't done more than grocery shop on the weekends for most of the year and he had a January/Feb that was promising to be just as busy. Black Friday i stumble on a deal on Expedia for a week at the Dolphin for just over $1600 for both of us, all in, direct flights from Pearson. I jumped on it because he would be able to lounge around in a hammock and read a book, sleep in, and just relax. Meanwhile, since I've been going since '71 (yup, that old!) we were both comfortable with me wandering around anywhere on my own. I cashed in miles for 3 day tickets and it was AWESOME! He slept most days till after noon and i spent hours on the Boardwalk, playing Disney Transportation Roulette (whatever comes next you take and go wherever it's going) I didn't want to waste a ticket on AKL so i spend almost 4 hours at AK Lodge and cropped the buildings out of my pictures We really lucked out and got the most perfect room -- if you ever look at the Dolphin you'll some curved green things towards the top -- those are actually balconies that wrap around the building and we could watch the fireworks from both EPCOT and the Studios, in our jammies !!!Reading this thread has got me thinking this is how I should get my fix in the next few years. DH has had enough Disney for now and the boys are all busy with their lives. Solo trip....
I try,,, I really do but somehow the sons and or my granddaughter find out and the trip turns into a family adventure.
