Pretty easily

Maybe not you personally but DCUM as a whole loves these places. There’s an active thread on 30a rn and every other day someone starts a Disney thread.

Nope. Will find a nice place that didn't vote the person causing all the distress right now.

Seriously. No money for red states. If anything I'll travel to Canada and spend my money there.

Wait, I thought DCUM was afraid to travel to Canada too, lest they be out-ed as Americans?

Disney has locations in California and around the world. There’s nothing special about Florida.

So what are you doing? Continuing to travel or delaying?

Travel to Europe right now. It’s actually great. The planes are two-thirds empty.

Really? When did you last go? I'm looking to travel and honestly have been avoiding it because the airports and flights have been beyond backed since 2021.

Yeah, I don't know what PP is talking about. I haven't seen a 2/3 empty plane to anywhere desirable since early Covid. I was on a (packed) SW plane to Disney and the gate next to us was announcing a nearly empty plane for people to spread out. But I think it was going to Omaha or Kansas City or something.

We are reliable D voters but have no trouble spending our travel dollars in Florida. I'm not planning to need an abortion or an education on my one week vacation there.
