2003 Disney Club rates are out and being booked!!

[lvs_eeyore]

I just called and had my ressie changed for next year and saved $713.00 for a Lagoon View Concierge at the Polynesian!!!! I was told that the discount on Deluxes for value season was 15% again next year.

I just called and got the 2003 Disney Club discount rates for both PO-R and ASMo. These are for standard/non-preferred view during Value Season:

$118.10 inc Tax for PO-R
$69 inc tax for AS-Mo

I was surprised at the big price difference between the 2 rooms. Now I have to figure out which room to book for only 1 nite before I move to BWV.

These are exactly the same rates as AAA discounts, that have been available since July for 2003. I have been a big supporter of the DC, but am now beginning to wonder. With the AAA discount, you can book directly through CRO, so no issues with cancellation policies. I think changing to a code or AP rate later will definitely be easier if the ressie is already with CRO, not DC.
Just disappointed that the discount is not a little better.

What is your rate per night. We are going in July and have the AAA rate for GV concierge and I was wondering what the difference would be. I am paying 331/night. thanks I'm hoping the AP rates are going to better in the spring

Can someone tell me the phone number for the DC?
Thanks!

Anyone who is calling up on these rates could you check to see if there is any availability on cash basis at OKW with DC for July 18 & 19th. Thanks alot.

Just called and told DC and AAA rates are the same for AKL concierge 5/9 - 5/18.

Not worth changing to DC ressie.

 

[Snoozan]

Ann-The phone number for DC is 800-933-3975(WDW Travel Co.)

Great! I booked through Dreams unlimited, and they are closed through monday, so I wont be able to get my discount applied til tues! How fast do these discounts book up? Anyone have any reassuring thoughts? I am going to be so upset if I dont get the DC rate applied!

 

[skuttle]

I don't have a DC card, but I'd like to know what the rates are to see if I want to get one. Can I call and ask about the discounts w/o being a member?

I'm looking for PO-R May 18-21 and AKL May 22-27.

 

[Maci A.]

Dreams unlimited just got my rate applied! I am so glad they are there this weekend! I saved 200 Cool!

We are waiting to see if we can get the DC discount for the GF in Jan. I don't think that we have a great CM. She is telling me that this DC rate is the same as the rate I booked back last year. So now I'm holding.......

Well it help to be patient. The new rate is $100.00 less. Did you know that if you pay your deposit by CC that they have to cancel your old reservation and make a new one. So now we have to make another deposit in 2 weeks. Now if you pay by check this wouldn't have happened. OH WELL!

Someone posted whether its worth having the AAA vs. DC. Well, the big difference between the two is that AAA was blocking out the discounts for Easter week and DC is not. So I called today and made a new ressie (I had booked my original ressie with travel agent, but she won't be in until Tues., so I'm not waiting) and I'll have her (TA) cancel my original one on Tues. Saved almost 300.00!! But I think I might end up cancelling most of my nights anyway because we're joining the DVC in 2 more weeks! I'm doing all this because I'm afraid all the paperwork for the DVC won't be done in time before the 7 month window of reserving. Our new home will be at the Beach Club Villas, but we'll still keep 3 of our first nights at POR. I can't wait to join!!

Scuttle, I called this morning to check on 2003 rates and I had to enter my DC membership number before the CRO CM even came on the line then I had to provide my number again before she checked rates so I don't know if you'll be able to get thru.

I've always been asked by the CM for my DC membership number in the past when I call the 800#, but this is the first time I had to provide it before even speaking with someone.

 

[skuttle]

cinmell: Thanks! I guess I'll just keep my fingers crossed and wait for AP rates to come out.

 

[DisneyPoly]

I called yesterday and had to enter my membership number. Once on the phone with the CM, he knew my name without my giving it to him. I think they must have the computer linked up now to coincide with your number.

 

[Poohbear123]

No Thanks for me either, I will rely on Fl. Resident Seasonal Pass Discount. I will not be re-newing my DC for next year, its not worth it too me, not with all the other Discounts out there.

 

[Kajunswty]
