Ask for directions to the airport and fly to Florida.

Sorry for my lame reply.
Not been to Paris but have done Florida's better versions. Overall cost was similar to friends that went to Paris one.

Have to agree with Bob. I'm sure you'll have a great time, but Florida it isn't.

Sorry.

I enjoyed it.

Essentially get to the park early and go on the best rides without queuing. Or at least get a ticket with a time return.

I thought the stunt show and rock and roller coaster were great.

If you are going to eat, try and book. There can be a good wait for a table at peak times.

We've been a few times.

Plan your day to do the rides early and then late when the day trippers are not there. In the afternoon do shows or the walk around attractions.

The food is crap and expensive.

As Davyboy said, make use of the Fastpasses.

Ignore the rude Europeans.

Watch the pepole dressed up as mice turn magical as they ineract with your kids.

Thanks for that....

I have been to Florida several times so I know the price difference, and that it is a very different experience.

Most here know I have two young children, so I don't want to fly to Florida. It's a bit too far as they have only done about three hours by plane so far. Also it is a lot more expensive than Paris, unless I just got a really good deal.

We will have fast passes because of is being in an upgraded Disney hotel, and we will have two extra hours in the am to make a good start.

Also, no matter where it is, it will be what we make of it. The wedding is where a lot of our money is going at the moment, but we wanted to do something special with the children.

Florida would be great, and if the children were older it would be on the cards, but at the moment it's Paris, and I'm soooo excited!

Wear comfy shoes obviously because you treck for miles. We did one day in one park then another in the next. It's good that you got the fast passes as we spent hours queuing, also as said above ignore the rude europeans, they do tend to shove you especially when standing watching the big parade, or ideally be rude back!
I have to say though after 4 days there by the end i wanted to punch Mickey Mouse in the face!!!!
