We used to do budget but now prefer luxury. At nearly 70 and physically not so able as younger days, the aches and pains abound if not pampered . So now we do luxury even though it means we do not go as often. We also go for longer so can pace ourselves better.

definitely prefer a bit of luxury here.
We asked our DD (17) whether she would prefer to go to Orlando every year flying economy and having standard accommodation or every 2 or 3 years flying premium economy and staying in a luxury villa or luxury hotel - she chose the luxury option. That has actually caused DH and I to worry as we've booked a surprise trip to New York for the summer (after her A Levels) but we're flying economy!

if as above a holiday every 3 years or once a year then its frequent all the way
think I would go nuts waiting 3 years for a decent break and life is too short imo |

I would much rather visit more often say every year or other year than saving up for a luxury holiday every 3-5 years. I feel there are plenty of ways to make trips more cost effective.

This question made me think about what we prefer. We are DVC but bought when it was 2$ to the £ so didn't class it as expensive or a luxury at the time but as a way to visit Florida every year for what was, at the time a cheaper option than a package holiday to Disney believe it or not. Flights cost nothing. Annual dues were ridiculously
low and DDP didn't exist so it was a cost effective way to visit regardless of the type of resort we own at. Now it is absolutely a luxury as dues have more than doubled, flights in school holidays can be a nightmare and Disney as we all know can be expensive. We never go every year as find we enjoy it more after a year or 2,s gap. We prefer this and go elsewhere or do a cruise in between. I think our luxury has been cruising with Disney to amazing places rather than say flying premium or stopping in expensive hotels when elsewhere. You could argue that managing any Disney holiday regularly is a luxury I suppose. My son has friends who have never been on holiday, rarely leave the village except for college and couldn't go to their prom as they couldn't afford suitable clothing. When you think about that then flying to Florida in economy with 2 stops on the worst airline in the world could been seen as luxury to some people 🙂. We class ourselves a fortunate as I'm sure you all do but we work hard and save on other things to do a great Disney trip. Long may we all manage it. Sorry to get so deep and meaningful on a Saturday afternoon 😬 This was a great question.
