AAA vs YQE did anyone get a better rate

[cindym]

There's no availability at YC, BC, or BW for my dates of 12/3 to 12/10. I have a package with AAA so I'll keep that. I don't want any other hotels as we eat at Epcot most nights and we are currently booked at BC with the dining plan. I can't change my dates as airline tickets are bought, we have CP package booked at Le Cellier and MVMCP tickets paid for also. Also got all the ADRS I wanted. Too much hassle to change. Guess I'll use my AAA discount!

At the Beach Club , my AAA rate was still cheaper than the new code rate.

AAA said there was no way to combine AAA rates with the new codes.

My CAA agent didn't say she could apply the new code to my existing PoP reservation. (I've called and left a message to ask if that's possible). She did tell me there were no rooms available at PoP with the code for my dates 12/8-12/13 (which I expected). She said she could offer me CBR for $1756.01, but that's exactly what the Disney web site shows too. I guess there is no additional AAA/CAA discount for the YQE packages?

Looks like I'm probably going to stick with my existing reservation with the AAA discount.

Do you have to pay in full 45 days before or do you still get to pay the balance at checkin?

The pig is representational of the current state of my life.

Yes, with the packages, you do have to pay the balance 45 days or more before you go. I'll pay it off with my Costco AMEX, which gives me 2% back on any travel I pay for with it.

WOOT, another $120 back!!

If the trip is cancelled 6 or more days before you go, they still keep "only" the deposit ($100 per room). If it's less than 6 days they keep $200 per room.
