The discount varies - if you post your dates and can run a check on the rates for you.

[sunfun]

we are arriving sat morning at 9:00 am on november 24 and departing dec. 3 at 7:00 am. of course this has to be a peak time! even a compact would be fine. thanks for checking the rates...can't wait to go...the weather is getting too cold here!

First off, you cannot do Emerald Choice or Emerald Asle with a compact. It automatically switches your choice to "Counter".

The total for Compact with Disney Club discounts = $160.23

That's with the contract # and the coupon...

For a Full size with the Emerald Asle = $178.61.

I'd pay the extra $18 to have Emerald Asle and a car 4 levels higher!:D

Either way, the discount given for the DC more than covers the DC membership.

thanks for your help. these are a lot better prices then i have been getting. should i apply for EA online? then will i receive a code and can i book my dates on-line too? what kind of cancellation policy do they have? thanks

Try rate quotes with different options as well. I have DC, AP and EA. I found the 10% off DC contract code along with the DC coupon code gave me the best rate for my dates. This isn't always the case. The DC contract code starts with a 5 and the coupon starts with a 1. Hope this helps. It took me awhile to figure everything out. Pluto4President has alot of info about it on the boards-just do a search.

Actually I just saw another note by Pluto4President-go to the top of the transportation board and there is a FAQ thread that points right to his info on Emerald aisle.

[Pluto4President]

I sent you a PM for EA Online enrollment link

[josierac]

Can someone tell me where I can get the DC coupon code?

I currently only have the DC contract code.

Thanks,

[Pluto4President]

either on their website or on the coupon. Contract starts with 5, coupon starts with 1.
