Saw this one too. Immediately contacted my TA. Then I came to my senses and realized I have no time to actually travel on one of these. :(
 
We took advantage of this offer and booked our London/Paris trip last night. Travel July 24, 2017.
 
We booked London Paris in September.

As DVC Member we got lowest price.
Then got $250 each through the promotion.
Got $600 off booking through Dreams Unlimited Travel
Getting the equivalent of 4.5% off by booking on Chase Sapphire Reserve Credit Card.
Getting an additional 2% off by using Disney Vacation Account to pay.
Great deal on Premium Economy Airfare through credit card points.

I better stop or Disney will owe me money!

4.5% off with the Chase Sapphire Reserve Card? I thought it was 3%? How did you manage 4.5%?

Sayhello

Travel is 3%. But if you redeem your points for travel (air, hotel, cruise, etc.) the points are worth 1.5 cents. So if the cash price of a flight is $1500, I can get it for 100,000 points.

So buy ABD for $10,000. Get 30,000 points which are worth $300. But spend the points for travel, they are worth $450.

Some people get better than 4.5% by transferring their points to Southwest Airlines, Hyatt, or Marriott. You can transfer points to these programs on a 1 to 1 basis.

I thought you only got the extra 0.5 cents per point (total 1.5) if you booked the travel through their website. And I've found their offerings very limited and way more expensive than if I bought them directly from the airline. But I see what you're saying.
