Flights Booked and other ICP news

Sooooo, lots of exciting things have happened since I made my first post earlier this month!

Firstly, its Christmas! Hope everyone's having a 'magical' one and that you're all excited for the new year! I know I am...2012 and the summer of a lifetime at Disney World...I can't wait! Unfortunately, I've been very busy at uni with a couple of exams before the Christmas break, and then on returning home, I've worked pretty much every day, trying to earn the 'dollar' for next summer! So you have my apologies, I haven't updated this as frequently as I'd have liked, but like I say, there has been lots of progress made towards the ICP in this last month, so here we goooo...

FLIGHTS BOOKED!

After much deliberation, I booked my flights on the 13th December, and I'll be flying direct from Manchester to Orlando, on June 10th, and returning on September 18th, both with Virgin Atlantic! My flights were booked through Yummy Travel, who are linked with Yummy Jobs and STA Travel. I could have booked directly through Virgin, and saved a little money, but with Yummy/STA, I now have a flexible ticket, meaning I can change my return dates up to three times if I need to. Having met and chatted with some of my fellow ICPers on the WDWIP forums (http://www.wdwip.com/) and our own ICP 2012 Facebook group, it appears there are quite a few of us on the same outbound flight...meaning we can all get a little Disney-hyper together! 

CRB FORM!

With my flights booked, the next thing I needed to sort out, was my CRB form. After completing the form, I attached copies of my passport and birth certificate etc, and then paid my £60 CRB application fee, and returned it by Special Delivery to Yummy Jobs. So with flights booked, and CRB completed, I now face a looooong wait til February before I receive my Disney Welcome Pack! Hopefully, it will flyyy by, and I'll have it sooner rather than later! 

Still can't quite believe that in just 166 days, I'll be on my way to Orlando, and ready for my summer of a lifetime! It's all beginning to seem a little more real, especially now that my flights are booked! 

I'll blog soon, and in the mean time, hope you all have a truly magical Christmas!
