1st timer needs info on Disney packages for 2008

[princesskenziesmom]

hello all, we are making our first trip in April 2008 for our twins 5th bday and I saw a post that said that the 2008 Disney packages went on sale. I saw that several people posted that they made their reservations and I have some questions.

Is it for DL hotels only? Is it cheaper to go through Disney booking? We already have reservations for CCI but would love to stay at a DLR if we can afford it. Did everyone who made reservations go through the website or call directly? I e-mailed info to get a quote for a package and haven't received it but wanted to know if this is the regular route most people take?

Sorry, I'm a real novice at this DLR stuff.

I am CERTINALY no expert, but I would book a room only reservation and watch for discounts. AAA, or passholder rates. It may end up being worth it for one of the adults in your party to get a pass to save on the resort.

The rates JUST came out - so I would shop around a bit and see what you can find. I'm sure the DLR experts will come along and give you MUCH more helpful advice.

I called Disney Travel Company, and booked yesterday. I booked a full package, bad thing is they cut value season short for this march, so I booked at regular season rate price. I found to me it was just better taking care of it all, so no need to stress over it.
