Yep, Boscov's Travel still does those Disney Charters (I've done about 10 of them) out of Reading Regional (I lived in the area). Used to be US Airways, now being done by Southwest. 

If it were me driving, I wouldn't even go through Philly, I'd bail off I-95 at the Delaware Memorial Bridge and take I-295 N.  Follow Route 40 and cross over to the NJ Turnpike, then it's straight up to Newark/Bayonne.  Sounds a bit complicated, but it's a really easy drive, and will get you around all of the Philly traffic.

As a fellow Central Jersey type, I feel this pain so deeply.  An interesting and rare additional possibility: Boscov & Apple fly (or at least used to fly) charter Disney flights outs of Reading Regional Airport from time to time.  ONCE I was able to latch on to the charter as an air-only option as the dates lined up for me.  It was like half the price of flying from PHL, and that included spending the night before at the Holiday Inn Express across the parking lot (where I was allowed to leave my car for no charge!).  The stars have to align just right, but when they do it's pretty sweet!

Always prudent.  ? 
Thanks for the clarification.  We're close enough to Port Liberty that it's an easy drive in, but if there was a hotel in the area Newark area with a free shuttle deal that came close to what a week's worth of parking cost, I'd certainly consider it for the convenience!

I've been driving myself crazy with that same thing.  Flying from NJ to Miami.  We will not drive to JFK or LGA to fly south - no lower price is worth the time, traffic & tolls.  So we look at EWR, PHL, AC and even ABE.  Won't fly Trenton as they cancel those flights a lot.  We look at flying into MIA, FLL, PBI and even MCO.  Our friends live near Orlando and offered to put us up for the night and drive us to Miami as they are on the same cruise. I started tracking flights around 6 months out - those were the cheapest.  Every other day I'd log on to the various airline sites,  (gotta watch because most of the sites that search the various airlines give you the basic rates which don't even allow carry-ons) and put in all my scenarios, write down the prices, and move on.  We finally chose a flight from PHL to FLL.  Once or twice a week I look back at our flight and see if they prices have dropped, and so far they've gone up.  We're almost at 90 days so going to look until then, and finally close the search tabs and be done with it.
I can't wait to be in a position, one day, to not have to put all this work into flight costs and just book when we want, to where we want, without watching the bottom line.  One day...

Emerald does not have any drink package discounts, Diamond does not even have any drink package discounts.
Reports lately from Diamond + Members are saying that even those deluxe drink package discounts for D+ are now gone.  
 

Glad to be of help!  ? 

That's a nice looking brace and I like that it's machine washable.  Thank you!

If you're concerned or need additional support, I've had great success with this brace:

I had a grade 3 sprain when I was in the Guard, and coming back to work I needed something to let me work on a rolling/pitching deck without killing myself or someone else.  This really did the trick.  Super supportive, and it fit in my boot or sneaker.  I still wear it to work out.

No need to block them .... they've only ever made one post ...... probably a troll.

That's cause he's extremely long winded ??

And go Lions (except against the Ospreys! ?)!

I have been on Adventure of the Seas (AoS) with my magnets and they work fine everywhere: doors, walls, ceilings.  I have not been on Anthem of the Seas (AoS)  or Allure of the Seas (AoS) with my magnets but have been on a sister ship of each and same experience.  
We use the hook magnets on the walls for lanyards & hats.  We have small round flat magnets for the walls for invites & compasses.  We also have a magnet white board for the wall that came with an eraser and dry erase markers that also are magnetic so they sit on the wall next to the board.
We use the magnetic hooks on the ceiling to dry swimsuits.  We also bring large beach towel clips to clip clothes to the chairs on the balcony.  
We use magnetic hooks on the wall in the closet for hanging necklaces and my jewelry bag. 
I need to start taking more pictures for answering questions.  LOL 
 
 
 
 

This is the kind of thinking I can get behind.  ? 

Thats how tips are supposed to work, nowadays the mentality is "if i give them a TIP before they do any work then they will do better work".  While this may be true it sets a terrible precedence as at work we call it Bribery.

Thanks so much.  I hadn't thought about checking the port arrival time, still fairly new to cruising and it never really mattered before because I don't usually book anything before 9:)  I'm taking along a few ziplocks just in case I get an urge for a late night cookie or snack so I'll be sure to have one available in case i need it for some morning goodies!

I like Illy a lot. I'm ok with Seattle's Best. I'm not  a huge Starbucks guy. It's not that I mind the coffee that much, more that I feel Starbuck's is over-hyped. If I had a choice, I'd rather drink Peet's.

I have heard that if you contact them prior to boarding, the staff will make accommodations for your daughter.  Also, I'm not sure of her age, but I know the Adventure Ocean staff are trained in working with children on the spectrum as well.  There's an organization out there called Autism on the Seas (https://autismontheseas.com/) that has lots of information, even if you don't use their services.  Good luck!
