    Default Magical Journeys

    I'd love to hear from others that have used Magical Journeys to book their Disney visits. Tell me the good, the bad, the ugly!

    Thanks!

    One thing that does not go together is MJ and ugly.

    They've been booking our vacation for many years, and I couldn't want nor expect anything more from my TA. If you do an INTERCOT search on MJ, you'll find many, many posts of why we all support them and constantly rave about how they've saved us time, money and aggravation. Terrisue is my family's agent, and I truly can't imagine trying to book my own room again, trying to sort through what's available, what discounts apply to what days of the week, etcetera In short, they're nothing but spectacular.

    Here's a great link to read:

    Magical Journeys are the best.

    Kathy has been wonderful with all my nervous nell requests. She has really gone out of her way to help. With my upcoming spring break trip she helped coordinate travel for DD and me as well as our friends who will be sharing a room. I am in Ca and my friends are from Nebraska.

    If I book a trip now other than DVC, I will be going back with Magical Journeys.

    I've used MJ for 7 straight years now and it doesn't get any better. Nothing bad to say about them at all. It's WAY better than booking through Disney or any other TA.

    No bad. No ugly.

    Just GOOD!

    MJ is great. We've used Debbie twice now.

    I can't recommend them enough.

    Ditto on the "no bad, no ugly" just great. We've used Terrisue for several years now, and she's awsome.

    They are only GOOD. Debbie was our agent for our Oct. trip and she was extremely helpful. We own DVC so cannot use them every time; but for the other trips I definitely will.

    I'm using Denise @ MJ and I love them. I'm travelling in a large group and have had more changes that I can imagine. All I do is email Denise and she's right there to set it straight until the next time I have to change something agiain.

    Use them, you won't be disappointed.

    Awesome is the only word that comes to mind. DW and I have driven down for the past 2 years from TN, and Kathy at MJ has always come as close to perfect as one could... Keeps us updated on any deals that comes out, lets us know of any issues with WDW. Definately a straight player. MJ is the way to go for this Disney Nutt.

    I always did all of my own bookings. That can get frustrating at times. Plus I will never know now if I missed any discounts.
    For our trip in September, 2009, we used Denise at MJ. She is very friendly and helpful, and was able to make a few changes for us.
    She got us some great deals, and saved me the frustration.
    We are now DVC members, but will not hesitate to use MJ again for a non DVC vacation, and will heartily recommend MJ for anyone who needs to plan a trip.

    One thing to keep in mind that most people on INTERCOT are WDW veterans. Most (all?) would agree that MJ is the way to go. No downside.

    Thumbs up

    Yeah, I did our first few trips on my own and it was always a pain. MJ takes away that pain and makes the whole experience pleasant and personal (thanks Karen).

    We have not been back in a few years, but when we decide to return we will definitely use Magical Journeys.

    No bad, no ugly... all good!! We've used MJ for all our trips except our first one, and after that mishap we learned quickly!! Their service is exceptional... I don't think anyone I know e-mails me back as fast as Deb, the MJ agent I use. They're wonderful, and so patient with all the questions that get thrown at them... and they work 24/7 it seems when specials come out, converting all their current clients into whatever new special fits their ressie, often while the rest of us are still asleep! I've woken up to find an e-mail from Deb saving me quite a bit of money, b/c a special was announced before I was even out of bed...

    So -- I'd definitely give them a go... and you're supporting Intercot when you do, as well!!

    Can't think of any uglies....

    Goods...they will search out the best deal for you and if you book and a new special comes out that will save you money they'll make sure you get that deal. I got a nearly $400 refund last time because Karen had Disney apply a discount for me.

    I wouldn't even think about booking without MJ. Debbie is the BEST. Emailed her last night to tell her I wanted to add the DDP if it was still possible. Awoke to an email from last night saying it was along with a new confirmation with it already added-- all by 6:30am! Always prompt, reliable, and very good humored, the last of which is a necessity when dealing with me and my multiple changes. You won't be disappointed.
