On this page you'll find details on the standard Disneyland packages, as well as current discounted packages. Most of the packages listed below can be booked online at Disneyland.com . However, I find the online reservations system to be confusing and clunky. Also, you really have to dig around online to find out the restrictions and cancellation fees, etc. If you're going to spend the money to buy a vacation package, I strongly recommend using a travel agent who specializes in Disney travel . It costs you nothing, and you can sit back, relax, and have all the vacation planning and hassle taken care of by someone else.

United Airlines Kids Fly Free Promo United Airlines is offering a "Kids Fly Free" promotion for travel between 1/3/06 and 4/27/06. With this promo, one child (age 2-11) flies "free" per one a paid adult airfare , when you buy a Disneyland vacation package. Sounds great, right? Unfortunately, however, this package isn't a great deal in many cases , because it requires you to choose certain fare classes for the adult ticket(s), which are usually MUCH more expensive than the cheapest discounted advance-purchase ticket(s). Often it would be cheaper to book a discounted adult and child fare instead. However, I'm listing this offer because it occasionally works out to be a good deal in certain circumstances.

Taiwan Travel

ACUTE VIRAL INFECTION - TAIWAN - Travel Medicine Program - Public Health Agency of Canada Travel Health Advisory ACUTE VIRAL INFECTION - TAIWAN Health Canada is currently monitoring an extensive outbreak of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Taiwan, reported to be caused by enterovirus 71(EV71). Cases have been reported in all regions of Taiwan, with the highest number from the Northern Region. Various reports indicate that the total number of children affected throughout the island by HFMD is between 60,000 and 300,000. According to reports, a total of 55 children have died. Taiwanese health authorities are conducting an epidemiological investigation of the cause with assistance from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The cause and extent of the epidemic remains to be confirmed. In the meantime, parents have been warned by Taiwanese authorities not to bring their children to public places where they can be exposed to the virus. Enterovirus 71 was initially recognized as the cause of outbreaks of aseptic meningitis (inflammation of the lining of the brain) and encephalitis (inflammation of the brain) in children in California between 1969 and 1972, and has subsequently been reported in Sweden, Australia, Japan, Hong Kong, Bulgaria, Hungary, France, and the states of New York, Alaska, Arkansas, and Pennsylvania. The mode of transmission is presumed to be similar to most enteroviruses, that is, predominantly fecal-oral spread. Most symptomatic infections occur in children less than 6 years old, and very young children have a disproportionately high number of cases of encephalitis. Regardless, it is apparent that the spectrum of clinical illness has varied considerably among outbreaks of infection reported from different locations. In this particular outbreak, deaths have occurred in children as old as 12 years old. There is no specific treatment for EV71. The management of the illness is on a symptomatic basis. Until the exact cause of this outbreak is more clearly defined and the causative virus is clearly identified, families travelling with small children to Taiwan should take the following precautions: Avoid all crowded areas. Wash hands before eating. Observe strict personal hygiene, including thorough washing of the hands after defecation and before handling food or caring for children. Ensure cleanliness in the home and clean all shared toys carefully. The Travel Medicine Program wishes to remind travellers to this area to follow good hand washing practices. Additional information will be posted as soon as it becomes available.

When I met Martha, she had finished a stint as Assistant Director for Program Development and Fund Raising at the Yelizovo District Library System and just started her career in travel with Yelizovo Tour Service.
