"I really like the descriptions of the various ports and their excursions. It's not the Passporter's fault, but DCL keeps changing things making some info obsolete. If you have any inside connections with DCL, could you let them know that many of us want to continue receiving paper Navigators? We want to get away from our phones, and most importantly many of us use them for scrap booking." -- Troy Foster (2021-10-21 13:10:59)

I liked the colorful pages, maps and pictures I wish there was a 2019 guidebook available for me to purchase. I like a real book that I can read and page through.

"Over the years we have bought several copies of your book. Allie's and Alex's Kids and Toddler Tips are great. Friends and family we have shared the book with love restaurant reviews and that you give times to get around to all the parks from each resort. " -- Michelle Greaser (2018-02-06 20:02:03)
"The Pockets for each day and all the info on each one.
Each park's map.
That it is a journal type book where you interact with it constantly (all the writing/info you put in) it really helps to go over what was forgotten so you plan the next trip better!
The worksheets.
The best of times crowd chart.
Resort maps for every resort.
Dining Plan color coded title bars make it SO easy to find the type of meal you're looking for literally at a glance.
The fonts used.
Everything makes this book fun to interact with. I return to it constantly because it's so user-friendly. The spiral binding, the book is used so frequently that the plastic spiral keeps coming out and I can't get it back in. It's a nightmare. Different dimensions to make the book more flat and less bulky." -- Jessica Colon (2017-11-20 14:11:06)

"My very first Passporter, WDW 2015 was a used gift from a friend that had attended WDW in 2015. I liked it so much that I ordered the 2016 WDW Guide for the updates. My favorite feature of the Passporter Walt Disney World 2016 was the color coding systems for rides, rooms, and restraunts for each category and their subcategories. It made planning our "Once in. Lifetime Dream Vacation--Simply the Best" and made planning almost as much fun as the vacation, itself. Thanks to my Passporter Guide, I went from having anxiety attacks due to being way over my head--having never planned a real vacation, before--to being deemed a local "Disney World Expert" within a week before our very first vacation!😊 Well, homestly, at first, I did get frustrated with the maps not being removable without damaging my Precious 2016 Passporter WDW Guide. On the other hand, I soon learned even "water proof" maps can get fairly soaked in a "Down-Graded Hurricane of June 2016. Fortunately, i had taken my 2015 maps along and used those in the parks, themselves--trying to keep them safe in zip bags. It was best to get maps at the front of every park each day and find that location on the Zpassporter map before attending--surely that is a Passporter tip that I must have over-looked! 😊 " -- Christina Engelhaupt (2017-01-14 12:01:58)

Am VERY disappointed about this. See above. A LOT of the book goes unchanged and especially the ratings and suggestions. IF I am going to pay for the book at this price, I would like things to be updated more.
I would also like the next years books to be released MUCH earlier. " -- Maureen Daehler (2016-09-10 15:09:41)

The blue elastic broke about 2 weeks after I bought it, without any kind of rough handling (it actually remained in the same room, only in my lap or on a table, for those 2 weeks). This is my first time buying a Passporter and I love it! The full color, pockets, worksheets, and maps are great, and it's full of great info.
I really like that the Passporter not only has info on the resorts and airports but also maps--it gave me a much better idea of what to expect, and it was great to check out the layout of different resorts for my upcoming trip as well as ideas for later trips." -- Lindsay Young (2016-08-12 00:08:09)
