Guest · 28 Jun 17, 07:46 PM

Hi, does anyone have a link to a good blank planner that I can print out and then write on, prefer to do it this way rather than on the computer but can't find a good one anywhere? Thanks

I created one in microsoft excel
we edited it with the information that wasnt going to change, and printed it out and wrote anything else on there. i will dig it out for you if would like.

**edit 1*
i have just double checked, it looks like i have deleted it.
but wont take me long to create a new one.

**edit 2**

I used a similar Excel sheet, but also included rows to show both the DIBB and Touring Plans Busy Days/Crowd Levels so that I could quickly see the best days to visit each park.

The image below is what we ended up with - I also used Touring Plans to work out the best order to do rides in once we had decided on a park and day, then also used the wait times for each ride to determine which Fastpasses to book.

I am in awe... would you consider sharing please? I have a sheet ready with busy days and quiet days but it is nothing like this!

This looks brilliant, I wouldn't even know where to start with something like that though

You're not a detailed planner by any chance are you

Seriously this is amazing, I love it !

It is quite easy to set up - just the usual Excel columns and rows. The main thing is getting the info from the dibb (and Touring Plans).

I then use the conditional formatting option on the cells so that for the dibb rows, Least Recommended (LR) is formatted red, Recommended (R) is yellow and Most Recommended (MR) is green.

For the Touring Plans lines, I think I had (or should have had! ) any rating between 1 and 5 formatted as green, 6-7 as yellow, and 8-10 as red.

This way, it is a lot easier to see the best (i.e. least busy and lower crowd levels) to help make a decision of which park to visit.

Perhaps not unsurprisingly yes! I do planning for a living - unfortunately not for Disney though

All those years of work finally paying dividends!

I like this plan very much - the use of conditional formatting to generate a visual cue for planning purposes is nothing short than brilliant.

I will emulate this also!
