3 Land/4 Sea no air $4923 w/OBC & cash back Good Deal Or Not?

[MTMom]

Just wondering if we got a good deal or not.

Disney Cruise Line, 3 Day Land (Wilderness Lodge), 4 Day Sea (Category 6), transfers, insurance and taxes, no air

We paid $4923 in total, but got $150 back on our AmEx card, $250 on board credit, and $300 in AmerExpress checks. Works out to be $4223. We also did the AmEx White Glove Treatment, but that's separate.

Any comments?

How many adults and children (ages?) are going, and what time period is it for?

Some weeks are very expensive compared to other weeks.

You did very well with the rebates, for sure!

Opps! Can't believe I forgot that important bit of info.

Two adults and two children (8 and 5) sharing same room.

Thanks!!!!!!

We booked this just 3 weeks ago...
2 rooms (4 adults/2 kids total) categ 7...land/sea pkg staying at WL too(I think I am going to love the Lodge!) leaving in a few days!

No air or insurance, no transfers either (cost us $250 seperately)

Cost $5,258...less $200 rebate = $5,058

Plus we get the $99 fall cruise deal...I am happy w/ my rates, but I think you did real well too!

 

[MTMom]

$99 fall cruise deal? Can you fill me in? When do you leave?

 

[KendraS]

We are leaving on Wednesday nite to have a good sleep at an airport hotel before the WDW land pkg starts on Thursday. Can't wait!

The $99 deal applies to ONLY Jan sailings. We are taking 6 people...my understanding is we can cruise for $99 plus port taxes anytime from 9/26-12/19 w/ certain blackout dates. At this point I know the 4 of us in our immediate family will probably do the fall cruise. I am not sure about our inlaws who are going w/ us now...and I have heard different things about who can use the $99 vouchers. All I know is...it's a deal!
