I am going to book on disneyworld.com, but would like to know if anyone knows the terms for the reservation. It's asking for a deposit, which is fine, but doesn't say when the balance is due. The site only states the following:

Deposit Requirements

A credit card deposit must be received at time of booking or the reservation will be automatically cancelled.
Cancellation Policy

In order to receive a full refund of your deposit, notification of cancellation must be received at least 6 days prior to your arrival date. To cancel or modify an existing reservation, call (407) 939-7429†. The cancellation and refund policy is subject to change.
Rate Revisions

Room rates are guaranteed as long as your reservation is not changed.
Please Note the Following

For reservation information and modifications PRIOR TO ARRIVAL, please call (407) 939-7429†.
Non-Transferable

Reservations are not transferable, and the guest for whom the room(s) or package(s) are reserved may not be changed.

THanks in advance for any info!
 
We booked through them and the entire balance was due 45 days prior to arrival. We paid 1 nights deposit then received a confirmation with the bill for the balance.
 
Took the following off of Disneyworld.com ~:D~

Please note that cancellation of a nonrefundable, published or promotional airfare results in a charge equal to the entire amount of the airfare. In addition:

All existing documents must be returned to Walt Disney Travel Co., Inc. via overnight delivery service and revised documents will be delivered express at an additional cost of $10.
Land portions of the booking cannot be cancelled without canceling the air reservations.

Documents will be mailed approximately 45 days prior to arrival (after receipt of final payment). Nonrefundable, promotional or published airfare tickets will be mailed immediately after payment of that component of your package. Any lost or misplaced documents will result in additional fees which may not be refundable. All applicable tickets and vouchers for land bookings, excluding car rental or transfer vouchers, will be picked up by the guest at the hotel at check-in.

Any refunds as a result of changes to the package must be requested in writing within 60 days after departure and will be assessed a $25 processing fee.

Child restraint seats must be used for children up to age 5. Child restraint seats must be requested at the time of booking for an additional charge. Seat belts should be used by all passengers.
 
I would call 1(407)4disney and ask for central reservations and inquire on discounts they are usually running something. Don't pay the rack rates they give you on WDW.com if anything register with AAA and get a 20%discount on rooms.
 


We booked a room-only for two nights, and were told the balance was due at check-in?
And can you get rates for next year at the official site? I can't get it to change to "2004". I am trying to get an idea of a package for my friends who will be visiting in Feb.
 
I was booking room only as well, so I don't know if it's the same terms as a package.

Also, I did price it with the AAA discount, and it was MORE! I couldn't believe it, but it was. I was pricing Wilderness Lodge for 2 rooms, 2 adults in one room was $889, and 3 adults in the other was $999 on the site. When I priced AAA through the CRO, the gave me $1012, and $1159 respectively.

Do you think I should call again, do you think the agent was wrong?

Thanks.
