CF Vacation plans for this year.
I'll start.
Big plus about being CF and travel is that we can go at any time, except during school vacations when prices are sky high!
End of April DH and I are cruising with a big group of our friends, 9 nights out of Bayonne to the Caribbean. First stop is Bermuda, and I am excited because I've never been there before.
July we are going to St. John for 9 nights, 7 nights in our time share and the extra 2 nights in the hotel side. Another couple is traveling and staying with us, then we meet up friends we've made over the years.
September we may go to Madeira Beach in Florida, just outside of Tampa. We have another time share there.

Nice !
We have a group trip (3 couples) to Curacao for the last week in April & I'm not sure what we're doing yet for our anniversary in June.

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
We're planning an overnight out East at the vineyards in the spring.
At some point this year, we're supposed to be going to Bangladesh for a couple of weeks.
And then, I don't know if this counts as CF  but we're going to FL for Christmas to spend it with my parents and sister - my sister just had a baby so it'll be baby's first Christmas  DH and I will probably go off on our own for a night to Key West while we're there.

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
Going with 3 of my gal pals to Las Vegas in 3 weeks.
DH and I are planning a cruise for this coming Fall (Royal Caribbean on either Oasis or Allure of the Seas).
Next year, I hope to make it to Europe (London/Paris or Spain). If not, then maybe a cross country road trip.

WE are actually taking a family vacation in April on the Allure. This won't be a CF vacation for us...actually our first.
Let me know if you want a review when I come back.

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
In April we are going to be in NY visiting my family.
Positano in May for DH's 30th.
Then DH's parents are coming at the end of May and will be in Europe until August, so we have things planned with them (they are not staying with us the whole time thank God!)
Bruges, Belgium with DH's parents for 5 days. DH and I plan to do a few bike trips in Belgium and the Netherlands.
In June a friend of mine is coming to Europe and I'm going to meet up with her. We will be doing a bike trip for a few days in the Netherlands. I heart the Netherlands  
In July we are going somewhere for a week with his parents. The problem is we all can't agree on where. Places we are deciding between: Hvar, Croatia, Sardinia, or Corsica. Hopefully we will decide soon before things get booked up!
Maybe some weekend bike trips in the fall and possibly London b/c DH has a business trip there.
NY again for Xmas.
Then we are talking about moving at the end of the year, but we are not sure where- it'd be somewhere else in Europe.

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
We just did a 12 night cruise in December.
In January my husband had to go to Mass. for business for 4 days so I went with him for a wanna be mini vacation.
We have no plans for anything new yet but we're last minute planners.

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
We just had our first vacation of 2012 last week. We were in Key West for 6 days.
We haven't planned anything else yet because we aren't sure if we will buy a house in 2012. But some of the ideas we are throwing around are the Caribbean (Aruba which we've been to or Barbados which we haven't been to before). We are thinking of going to Hawaii again in September/October but this time to the Big Island.

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
Last week, we took separate vacations, him to Israel, me to Spain. In August, we're meeting some friends (one from Russia, three from Spain) in Amsterdam and probably spending a few days in another country (maybe Belgium or Scotland?). We'll also probably do a trip to South America during Thanksgiving week.

If you go to Belgium, check out Bruges. It's so pretty! You can rent bikes and go along the coast.

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
Nothing planned out yet but in the near future (this year, maybe next year also) we want to go to Las Vegas/Grand Canyon, Chicago, San Francisco, and Puerto Rico.

If you need a nice B&B, I can suggest one. They also rent out bikes and the owner, Benny, is really very helpful. He can suggest some excellent bike trails. We stayed there last year and we are going again in May. It isn't serious cycling though. You'll get a touring bike, but you don't need more than that because it's so flat. I've never actually done that part, but we are doing it in May. I've cycled elsewhere around the Netherlands (Bruges is close to the Netherlands) Enjoy!

Oh, cool! What is the name of the B&B? I'd love to check it out.

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
We're going to a B&B in 2 weeks in honor of Vday. It was my gift to DH.
In October we're going to Disney World for Food & Wine,
Don't know what the big trip will be this year. I wanted to take my mom to Italy, but that's hard to coordinate.
We also thought of going back to Sandals either back to St. Lucia or to Antigua as our big trip this year.
Next year we are planning to go to Disneyland and the Aulani resort on Oahu

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
OOH. One more. I just found an AMAZING TA rate on a Disney Cruise and DH and I are going to see if we can get off work, since it's only in 2 weeks.
Joys of being CF. We can pick up and go!

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
I LOVE vacations! One plus to not having kids right now is the ability to travel when we want and at the last minute!
March-10 day trip to London & Barcelona
May-Atlanta for DH college reunion
Memorial Day Weekend-hopefully upstate with friends
June-Trip to North Carolina
Planning a trip to Orlando & New Orleans (not at the same time). Trying to figure out the dates!
ETA: just booked a 7 night stay in St Marten for September!!

Re: CF Vacation plans for this year.
Ok Update!
We did the B&B in February.
A week later we did a Disney Cruise
We ARE going back to St. Lucia in June for our anniversary (same room but couldn't get penthouse, hoping for some TA pixie dust and a magic upgrade)
Disney World in October for the Food and Wine Festival.
Next year:
Disneyland and Hawaii
Maybe another cruise
Maybe Italy
Not sure about Disney World plans
ETA: The best thing about being childfree is being able to take these trips, and to pick up and take a cruise 10 days ;later like we did. So happy we're getting to do this while we are CF (we do plan to have kids)
