Apology for absence

Dear loyal readers (all 7 of you),

Based on the last few months of absence (yes, months...) you could be forgiven for thinking that

1. I don't love you any more
2. Disney simply has no news worth sharing.

Obviously, neither of these is true.

1. I do still love you all, deeply, but have been preoccupied with booking lots of you to various Disney destinations, and the many other non-Disney places that I also send folk (as some people are weird enough that they don't want to travel to Disney every year)... and
2. Disney have made lots of recent announcements that I am itching - nay, aching - to tell you about.

Here's a sampler of the articles I'll be posting about today or tomorrow:

• New promotional codes at Disney World
• A long-overdue update on Aulani, Disney's resort in Hawaii, which is already open for business. 
• 2013 sailing itineraries are available for all the Disney Cruise ships.

And there'll probably be more. Watch this space...

Get Ready to Book Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa Ko Olina, Hawai‘i

Last year I mentioned that Disney had bought property in Hawaii with a view to building a resort there... well plans are obviously coming to fruition, as it was announced today that we will be able to book this amazing family destination resort, starting at the beginning of August for travel starting in the fall of 2011.

The resort promises to showcase the culture and beauty of Hawaii, through the magic of Disney, offering kids programming, adult activities, cultural experiences and much more.

If you love Disney (and the way they do things) and/or if you are interested in exploring Hawaii, you should consider being one of the first families to travel to Aulani. As always when Disney launch a new travel product, there will be strong demand!

Bookings open the first week in August 2010 for Disney's new family resort on the shores of O‘ahu.

Aulani connects you to all that's magical about Hawai‘i through storytelling and amazing cultural experiences as only Disney can deliver.
