    It's not quite so complicated!! Basically Vacation Planner is Disney-ese for ticket seller :) But you are supposed to find out more about the Guest's vacation, how long they're staying for, if they've been before, what they want to do, etc, then suggest a ticket package to them based on their needs. There's something like 120 different ticket combinations available so your job is to guide them through it. Unfortunately, given Disney's reputation for being ridiculously expensive, most people think you're trying to rip them off...so they just buy a one-day, one-park ticket (at $76) even if they're spending 10 days there (and a 10-day ticket works out at $21/day!). But occasionally people actually listen to your advice and that's really rewarding :)

    j0hnyoung Guest

    I'd probably remember her if i saw her..I wasn't really ever in animal kingdom tho..Just went there for one training day..

    Nope, my interview was in march at the university of central lancashire (preston) what building did you have your interview in?

    there was a canal?!?!

    i didnt see much apart from the science building, a path, and then the train station! i wish i had seen the canal, that would have been nice.

    on a completely unrelated topic, why does my photo always stretch sideways and make me look like a chubb chubbs??!

    Yeah, the canal runs right through the middle of the uni!

    You must have been in the ramsden building or something i guess..Especially because you haven't mentioned going anywhere near the students union!
