Would this be reason enough to fly to Orlando for one night?Someone recently asked about taking a spur of the moment trip to Walt Disney World, just to attend Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. It would be a one night trip, only 24 hours, and she had found a low price on flights. My advice was an enthusiastic do it! It may not seem like the practical thing to do, but some of the best moments in life aren’t practical.
A spur of the moment trip does not need to be expensive. In fact, it could be more affordable than you might think. There are so many discount flights in and out of Orlando International Airport that airfare will not cost too much. If it’s only a one or two night trip, you can easily fit everything into a backpack, so if you’re on a discount airline you won’t have to pay for a carry-on. Stay at a Value Resort and take Disney’s Magical Express, or stay off property and use a ride sharing service. Even renting a car wouldn’t cost all that much for 24 hours.
Life is short. You don’t want to look back and wish that you had made a different spur of the moment decision. Make memories, not regrets. Take that last minute trip, even if it means you’ll only have a few hours of park time. Stop trying to be practical and sensible, and take a chance. If you can afford it, do it! You just might have the best 24 hours of your life.
