We actually did the Platinum Plan on our last trip because we wanted to eat at Victoria and Alberts (what a treat! Have my PS for this next trip already!). Although we might not have maximized all of the extracirricular activities (it was too cold to go parasailing like we'd hoped and none of us golfed), we did hit the spa, saw Cirque, went on an Illuminations cruise, got preferred seating at all the parades/shows and ATE TO OUR HEARTS CONTENT! We got to eat at all the restaurants I'd pretty much ever wanted to and try pretty much anything on the menu (including some things NOT on the usual menu) - all without worrying about the cost. We STILL had points left over at the end to do a little shopping! We saved our meal receipts and added them up at the end and we definitely got our money's worth out of our "Platinum Princess" trip!!!

On our next big family trip (likely 2006) with 8 adults and 1 kid (maybe more by then), we've already talked about doing at least the Silver Plan, but more likely will do Gold so dad and the boys can golf while us girls hit the spa! And we all love good food, so it's a bit of a no-brainer for us.
