    Best New Place To Stay At Disney And Best Mileage Deal Of The Year?

    If you enjoy the podcast, I hope you’ll take a moment to leave us a rating. That helps us grow our audience! Watch us on YouTube!  Richard and Ed got to join Summer Hull (Mommy Points) at the Evermore Resort in Orlando, FL. They came away very impressed. The visit had them wondering if this is now the best place to stay offsite at Disney World. The 8 acre lagoon in the center of the resort will convince a lot of folks why this is the right place to be. Next up, we discuss the new Disney World Lightning Lane system. Richard and Ed had a pretty painful experience, though it was saved by one key hack that you can use to make your Disney World park experience much less stressful. Lastly, we recap what might just be the mileage deal of the year, where folks scored business class flights to Europe on Virgin Atlantic for less than 30,000 miles/points one-way (and reasonable surcharges)!
