2006ers - When are you going, where are you staying and how did you book your trip?

October 21-28, 2006
Polynesian - Garden View

I haven't booked our trip yet. I thought I'd read somewhere that you can't book more than 500 days in advance - - so I can book in about 3 weeks.

I'll book through CRO and apply the AAA discount if/when it becomes available. And, of course, watch for other discounts too!

I'm quotin' myself!

I ended up booking our October room only reservation on August 23rd through CRO and applied the AAA discount. Now the looooog wait begins .....

Hi,

hi

I am going to be there 8 Sept for 5 weeks for our Wedding/Honeymoon. Staying at the GF and cruise for a week and then back for the Contemporary Concierge and then AKL.
If anyone is going to be there in Sept, I need help with my room block and could help someone out. If anyone already has a booking could they share their info with me?

Thanks

Sam

We're going Nov 9th - 18th, two rooms at CBR. Booked through AAA and we're on the dining plan; with three teenagers, I know we'll be looking at some savings on food.

We're already making plans and we're still over a year out!

Dec 2006 1 week Old Key west 3 day cruise then another week at Saratoga Springs. We booked the cruise through Costco Travel and the DVC rooms through member services.

 

[Bracho]

Our first trip is in March staying at the VWL for 10 days then we head back in late Nov, early Dec for 10 days, we haven't picked the resort yet but I'm leaning towards 2 resorts, either the concierge level at the GF or the YC.

I have DVC points that expire in July and a crapload of credit from Southwest Airlines to use.

When are you going?

July 2-13, 2006

Where are you staying?

BCV July 2-9, Wonder July 9-13

How did you book your trip?

Booked cruise in Oct(?) 2004, transferred to DU shortly thereafter. Booked BCV Aug 2005 (renting points from DVC owner). Left to do: Order tix in late Dec 2005, book air sometime between now & date SWA opens up July 2006, make ADRs in late March 2006, book excursions for Nassau & CC.

Isn't planning half the fun?

Booked via CAA (Canadian AAA) for Feb 10th to Feb 1th - 2days AKL, 6 days AsMo.

We loved AsMo in Feb this year, so we wanted to go back, but we have also always wanted to stay at AKL, so we are splurging and having 2 days at the beginning of our trip , the rate via CAA was for value season, so it made it a little less expensive, and because we are switching to AsMo on Feb 12th which is still value season, we have got the rest of the stay reserved at value price (Feb 15th is usually end of value and prices are higher from that date on).

Also booked for the dining plan, and can't wait to book restaurants that we normally don't go to because of cost

Counting the days.........................

iluvwesties - your pic cracked me up!

I just edited my post. Instead of a split between CR/AKL we decided to go to the Boardwalk in Feb. I booked with the best rate program online about a month ago.
