Hey mkymouse4ever!

I noticed you are staying at the CR Tower in December! That's where we have a ressie also in December! I'm hoping to be able to keep it! If we could only get a code or FTP! Which would you prefer? Probably a code since you are inquiring about AP rates. Do you have any idea what these rooms would typically be with an AP rate?? Just trying to figure out if it is less than the FTP would be. Thanks for posting and I'll be watching too for any deals coming out for our timeframe!

Aren't APs only out up to 23rd August rather than 28th? (Forgive me for being picky but we need AP rates for 24th - 31st!!)

 

[mkymouse4ever]

Princess Crazy: Actually I would LOVE a FTP for december! Because our tix lapse in October and I would let them lapse for a while till next summer? I just have to stay at the CR tower in december no better view watching the fireworks during MVMCP! (except the nights we will be there!) We will also be at CR in august & it is quickly approaching! Can't wait!

AlisonB: Sorry you could be correct, I was on my cell phone and of course driving at the same time, so I could of heard her incorrectly!

Keeping an eye out for early december too!

My luck, the rates will come out July 19-26, when I am away at WDW

Puffkin: I'm also there July 19-26, at ASMO!! Also worried that is when AP rates will be released! I want a better rate for WL Courtyard in December!

Hi all,

I have no idea if this means anything, but I had booked a room only reservation via the Disney website for 4 days at the end of October. I put the deposit on my CC. I like to pay my trips off in advance, so I sent a check for the remainder. Disney called me and told me that they could not accept payment on a room only res made via the website. They said that I would have to pay the remaining balance at check-in. They returned the money I had sent. I didn't think that the website made this policy clear, so I sent an email suggesting that they make it more obvious on the website that no further payment would be allowed until check-in if you book that way.

Yesterday, I got a call from a very nice CM who offered to move my reservation over to their other system so that I can pay the balance in advance. While we were talking, she asked me if I needed tickets. I told her that we had APs. We are booked at ASMOs. She asked me if we had ever stayed there before. I told her that we hadn't, but since we just spent 2 weeks at CBR in June, that I didn't want to spend the money for another moderate since we were going to be there for such a short time. She told me that I should keep watching the Mickey Monitor because there just might be something coming up that would allow me to stay at a moderate for the price that I was paying for ASMOs. She said that she would keep an eye on my reservation as well. She was great!

Maybe this is a good sign of future AP discounts in the near future!

I am betting on mid July. They came out in Mid - late April last time AP rates were released.

My mom made her room only reservations for the WL for Thanksgiving yesterday. The CM reminded her to call back when the discounts come out! There is hope!

 

[jacksmom]

Anyone check today???

 

[AdventurerKat]

Just jumping in here as I am hoping for AP discount for mid September.

 

[bjb]

I'm holding off on making reservations because I figured if everyone reserves the rooms, Disney won't need to give discounts.

 

[mkymouse4ever]

Anyone know when the next mickey monitor is due out? Isn't it August? Sure, I'll be in WDW for 18 days and miss the discount! Oh well, have to call everyday from there.

I too have reserved a room at the CR for early December and am eagerly awaiting the release of the AP rates. If anyone has any idea of when they are coming out please post it! I heard as early as Aug from one CM and as late as Oct from a different CM.
