anyone book thru travelocity?

[prince/princessmom]

Hi, I am trying to find the best deal for a last minute trip with me and my DH for Aug 20-24. I saw some discounted rates and 2 days free on the tickets, is this a good deal? I have only ever booked directly thru disney. Also, does anyone know if I can book the DDP with travelocity? I didn't see that anywhere on their site. Thanks for your help. I am looking into booking a deluxe resort, just haven't decided which one yet, but if I can get a great deal I am open to the resort.

2 days free on your tickets saves you apprx. $4 per person. You can NOT get the DDP through travelocity as they purchase bulk rooms from disney and disney will NOT have your reservation on file, the resorts will 5-7 days prior to arrival

Thanks, that's what I needed to know. I will stick with disney.
