Anthony Travel?

[lenshanem]

We have waited to long to get anything with our DVC for RFTT except for SSR. I called Anthony Travel to see what rate they had and they didn't have any info yet so they took down my info. Has anyone used them in the past and was it a decent rate? Can you get room only? We have APs, but I know it will be awhile before any codes (if any) come out. Thanks!

Did you wait list any of the resorts? I just got the 7th at BWV and changed from 1 bd standard to 1 bd PV the whole week. I have always had luck with that. I started at SSR and moved to BWV.

Ya, I think I'll ask DH tonight what he wants to do. I could waitlist for BCV or BWV and if it doesn't come thru soon enough I'll go with Anthony Travel and stay at the CBR. I checked their website a little bit ago and they offered decent rates for the Minnie at POR - $115 a night. I wonder when they'll get the rates? I hate to wait too late...

I am using Anthony for Minnie Marathon and got awesome rate and I am very happy with them. I asked them last week when I talked to them and they said they will be offering Carribean Beach, and info should be available in the next couple of weeks.

Let me tell you what happened to us last year at RFTT, they were offering Carribean beach for something like $120 a night and I kept waiting and ended up paying about $100 for All Star Sports with AP discount (with tax) I was SOOOOO mad that we did not just book with Anthony travel, plus they offer transportation to start and back to hotel. So if you can't get your DVE I would strongly recommend them, over AP discounts.

Thanks. I did go ahead and book DVC last night. I figured why pay out of pocket when I have points I could use? (I did have to borrow them, though!) Plus, I was able to book the DDP this way, I wouldn't have if we went thru Anthony Travel cause we don't need a package, we've got APs.

Only downside was all they had left in studios was SSR. I guess we'll drive to WWOS and then take the bus back over. I think I read they also have a bus at Epcot before to take people to WWOS? Maybe we should do that instead so our car is at Epcot after the race.

Regardless, I waitlisted for BCV and BWV. I'm hoping they come thru this far out.

I can't believe I'm doing this! I just mailed off the registration this morning.
