    Outside Florida? I only went on one. I went on a Carnival Cruise to the Bahamas. I wanted to do the Disney Cruise, but the ones when I have my days off never seemed to come available. Do a cruise.

    Use the internet....you can plan trips using travelocity.com or expedia.com, or any of the airlines' websites for webdeals.

    There's also a travel agency in the park, so if you go there and tell them you are cast member they usually are good at finding you a deal.

    Went to the bahamas for a week all inclusive (including alcohol) for around $300 I think. Also went to California fairly cheap (worked out to about $400 with 3 of us sharing a room.

    Well I never really went outside of Florida....I went to Miami so many times (my boyfriend lived there), so I flew down whenever I had a back-to-back. I used the travel agency at Epcot, and got reeeeeeally cheap tickets with Southwest Airlines. Nowadays, you can probably just book them online on their own website.

    I actually DID go back to Canada for a visit while working at WDW - again, I used the travel agency at Epcot and got a pretty good deal.

    I got in touch with a travel agency called festival Tours!
    A very nice lady called Elaine there helped us with tickets all the time!
    And it's not to expencive!

    Something terrible happend when I was leaving the states to go home after the year.
    I had booked my own ticket online, and i got the confirmation, but another mail was sent and it went to my junk mailbox, so when i was at the airport tinking i had a e-ticket home, i dint have a ticket at all.
    iceland air said I would have to pay 2000dollars for a ticket the same day!!!!!
    I was shocked, and the plane was leaving in less than 2 hour..
    It wouldnt have been a porblem staying a few more days but I had different flights booked in Norway to get to my hometown, and I had been waiting for this day for 2months!
    So I called Elaine, and she fixed me a tickets for 350dollars!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    And she drove to the airport to give me my ticket!! And she does not normally do that delivery.
    She is amazing!


    She booked tickets to us for Las Vegas as well, and arranged a hotel for us..
    So check out www.festivaltours.com and get the phonenumber there.

    I went to Las Vegas, New York twice, New Orleanse twice.
    A road trip to Nashville. Another trip to Alabama.

    Every place is so different. I seriously want to do the year over again and travel more around the states.
    But my favourite place in the US is Key West, Florida! It's so laid back and just great! Best place to go and get away from it all!!!

    And a funny thing is, non of my trips where planed really, except the first trip to new york.
    Las Vegas was booked the same day, Alabama was desided two days before.

    The trips I planed never happend! Like doing the Cruise, trip to Mexico, California, Boston... funny...
    I have to go again!

    In Canada Merch, it was once every 30 days...but I know that UK F&B was making it once every 3 months, so who knows what it will be when you get there. Request them as early as you can...that's the only way to get time off. EARLY EARLY EARLY!!!!

    I went on the cruise ( paid 490 bucks all inclusive ( besides the drinks ) ) and it was amazing!!!! Definitely do that! It's a great experience! Other than that I went on a road trip for 2 weeks which included Savannah, New Jersey, New York, Boston and Toronto. I also went pretty much all over Florida, Key West kicks ass. I went home once and that was it I think. I wanted to do Cali as a final trip but 9/11 just totally messed that up. You can go on so many great trips and it's so cheap so you should totally take advantage of that!
