I was wondering if the menu at the restaurant can be adjusted so you can order multiples of one item for your pets, instead of something different for each one. For example, my Royal Family of Unicorns went on vacation on Thursday. When I went to order dinner for them, the only veggie or grain-based dish was a tomato one. I wanted to order that for all of my unicorns but couldn’t, and all the other dishes were meat based, so only one got a main course. While I am not a vegetarian, with my pets I try to feed them as close to their natural diet as possible. My carnivores, ie. lions, tigers, and bears (Oh my!), even though bears are really omnivores, I feed meat. (Omnivores like my Bears get meat, fruit etc.) Vegetarian animals like my Equine animals, and rabbits, get veggies and grains etc. It would just be nice to give them all something that is close to their natural diet.

I’m sorry to say but while the new travel agency and vacation island is nice, it’s not vacation island from Classic Webkinz. I’ve tried it once and I’ll not be doing it again. I am not fond of how much of a money grabber it is and frankly, it’s not vacation island without Sheldon Turtle. Other’s make like it, but sorry, I’ll not be throwing Webkinz Dollars away in the travel agency.
All my arcade tickets were restored today. I am still having problems playing a game but it will normally work after several attempts. The one issue I am still having is not receiving travel tickets as earned. I do not know if I am just misunderstanding or if this is a glitch. For instance when I fill a pets’ heart & receive family score there is no change in the travel tickets. Today, I did all the tasks with the baby, fulfilled a pet request & filled the heart only to receive a 5 tickets towards travel. Is this correct?
There will be an update to how Family Score affects travel points. It’s not working as intended right now — filling pet requests is the primary way most people can earn travel points.
The fishing game looks so cool!
I’m SO excited for this feature! I love fishing in my other games. I’m REALLY hoping that Karl is hinting that Debbie Dragon is coming back!
I think they are hinting about Debbie Dragon. I can understand why she is not there now since it would take some time to make her in next being a whole new Animal in next. It already took a lot of time to make the island and they released it before the season ended. So since they have the travel agency is out they may have some time to work on Debbie Dragon. I am just guessing i do not really have this proved.
Megamom so am I. I was hoping for the same, I miss Debbie Dragaon.
I loved going on the Vacation, only problem I experienced was when I went to the restaurant it never gave me a menu and I could not leave from the table I have to bring the map up and click on the Vacation shop on the map to start over. Never did get to feed my pets from the restaurant. I hope it works tomorrow.
Can there please be a post about how you win the free ticket by doing family score and how to get more family score for the ticket? When i make a pet happy i get 20 family score but for the vacation ticket family score i only earned 5 points.
Yes please – so confused! I filled a pet heart in the travel agency, saw the 20 go into my family score, and the travel meter went up by 5. So 400 family score points buys a ticket? Or is the travel meter just not working correctly? I heard the comment in the podkinz about using up progress, so a travel ticket couldn’t be purchased with the family score, but I don’t know what that means either. Used on what? I went back in the video, but I have no idea what the points got used on, lol! I feel very stupid – do I already have vacation brain?
Thank you for fixing the arcade ticket scores! gaming on!!!!
When you fill a heart ,do baby care, do a pet request etc. the meter in the travel agency gives you points. When the points reach 100 you get a free vacation. It took me two days to get 100 points. I hope that helps.
please check the awarding of tickets in the arcade. Mine were reduced to 100 from 7-8000 and i don’t get any new ones when I play games.
I asked Webkinz about that they said they are working on the issue. Hopefully they can get everyone’s back.
Wow! I had a great time on vacation! What a wonderful addition to Webkinz Next! It was a lot of fun!!! Loved doing ALL the activities! It was so relaxing going on a boat ride, after fishing. Thank you!!!!
