AAA then Tickets

[denman007]

If I call CRO and book room only with AAA discount, how do I go about getting my 8 day tickets?

What happens if free dining comes out? I forget, do you need to book a 'package' to get the free dining?

Yes, you have to book a package to get free dining. You cannot simply add the dining plan or free dining to your existing hotel reservation. You would cancel your room only and book a brand new package reservation. If you have a room only reservation, it does not guarantee that the hotel is available as a package.

HTH!

CRO will book your room at the AAA rate and sell you tickets separately. But you can probably get them cheaper somewhere else.

CRO cannot book a package w/the AAA discount, only AAA can do that. But if Free Dining is what you're looking for, you'll have to forgo the AAA discount anyway.

I guess since we decided on All Star's, I'll just book a package directly. Had we chosen CSR, I would have used AAA initially in case no free dining.

Parents are staying at All Star's so it makes it easier being together.

Thanks.

CRO won't book a AAA package, but they will book your room at the AAA rate and then sell you park tickets are the full price. I did this just a few days ago.

I screwed up. I book my air on Saturday because I noticed a big price drop. Then on Sunday I checked the package price with and with out air. Turns out Disney had the same air for $100 less.

This was the 1st time I have ever seem their air fare cheaper then what I could get. So I am stuck with what I got - $100 more than Disney, but still $170 cheaper then it's been all year.

I booked my airline through Disney and saved about $100 a piece. Now when I look at the rack rate it looks more like I save $150 a person. I am sure glad I looked at that option.

I took another look today and the rates are the same. It was discounted $93 total, not per person. Today it's gone so I don't feel as bad.

I priced the package without air. Check the air fare on Air Tran. Then added the exact flights to my package. That's how I know it was exactly $93. Not a big deal, but now I know to verify next time before I commit to anything.
