AA discount when going to dlp

[simplyshaz]

I thought I'd write this in case some of you don't know about this. Both times before when I've gone to dlp I've stayed on site,(cheyenne n Santa Fe) both times it's been cold. I really wanted to try a summer trip there in the school holidays just me and my dd. I bought ap's for us earlier this year. Even with those staying on site even in Santa Fe or cheyenne comes up way too much. So I booked us an apartment at val d Europe for 4 nights for £282. A few weeks ago I read something about the 'show your card' scheme across Europe. The aa is part of this scheme. If you have an aa card on the reverse you will see a box with show your card on it. This gets you discounts across Europe on things, including staying at the dream castle or magic circus hotels at dlp you have to book by email or phone to get the show your card rate. Anyhow for the dates we are going the dream castle comes up at £621, I emailed them regarding the show your card rate to find that for the exact same room etc it was only £307!!! Needless to say that I have now cancelled our apartment and we are now stating at magic castle complete with breakfast for £307 ! Hope this info helps a few others

Make sure you print off the page from the site tho as they tried to tell me it was a free child, so they had to amend it manually to allow the offer. Saved us 12€

Do you have to pay in full at the time of booking?

I was just going to ask for me too but thanks for the email address!

Also, where on the AA website does it show the hotels participating in the scheme? I can only see something about Great Western hotels - is that who Magic Circus and Dream Castle are owned by?

Thanks

It doesn't Hun, the only reason I knew of it is when I read it in a post on here. The OP saw it advertised on a German site. So I just emailed them directly to ask lol they are part of the show your card scheme, my aa card has show your card on the back, so that's all I need the hotels are owned by a company called vi.

Upon emailing them this is part of the email that I received back from them.

Thanks so much for posting this, I would never have known about it otherwise despite having an AA card. I've saved the information for future reference.
