With Clarity whilst all transactions are fee free, interest is charged from day of cash withdrawal. This can be avoided by transferring funds from your bank into your HC account on the same day.

Same as this Halifax Clarity is the way to go, best rate and no loading.

Hi, we always use the Thomascook Cash Passport prepaid currency card and take a few hundred dollars in cash.
This year we have changed to the Revolut card.

We took $500 in cash and everything else went on the Post Office credit card. That was for 2 weeks.

I stay onsite at Disney - so when I'm there almost everything I buy in the parks/Disney Springs gets charged to my room, and then usually paid off with a CC.

I do bring some cash though, and sometimes use some cash to pay off part of the charges to my room... Need to have just enough cash to cover Universal trips and anything I need to buy at the airport! Oh and tips too.

I'll take mine mostly on a currency card (An Post one, highly recommended if you're in Ireland) and a small amount of cash. DH prefers mostly cash.

We've always took cash and TCS but I've just got a revolut card and a Halifax clarity after seeing it mentioned on this group going to try these and cash this year.

I always take cash. I budget $150 per day for the two of us (if not on DDP), and $70 per day if on DDP. This covers souvenirs, taxis, probably a big show like Cirque, and 'adult beverages'.
