garada3,
Are you sure about that? I would hate to see you miss a savings.
What you are saying is that the base ticket package (+dining) right now is $300 more than what you paid in October 2005 for a park hopper+water (+dining)?? It just doesn't seem right.
I booked November 2005 for a park hopper package (+dining) but no water.(very close to what you booked) I got the code applied today and though I'm not saving a lot because of the higher 2006 prices, I am saving about $100 AND I'm getting the water parks added to my package.
The price my TA gave me was the exact price I found on the Disney site when I did a basic package search without hopper and water.
I would investigate this further if I were you. It is worth a try.
