booking for early 2017

[ky.]

Not sure if this is the right place to post this but - Does anyone know when prices will be released for 2017 bookings? Thinking about an early January trip but a lot of it will depend on the price as the Canadian dollar is terrible right now...

Usually June-July-ish.

We're waiting for 2017 packages to be released also, can't wait to book!

Usually early summer, last year was fairly early so I'm hoping they'll follow that again

I'm thinking June

We are going in a couple of weeks, and I booked it last spring. Online booking wasn't available, but I booked it over the phone. It was a hotel only booking, not a package, so I'm not sure if that makes difference. With room only, you only have to pay one night's rate up front and the rest at check-out, which gives you lots of time to cancel. That deposit is fully refundable up until 5 days before your stay.

I'm not sure how they set the rate at the time, but it was quite a bit cheaper than what was advertised when they finally released it online in the summer.

I feel your pain about the dollar. We've just decided to barge ahead and try not to obsess about it.

Good luck!

I just purchased our disney tickets (staying off-site in Jan. 2017) as we are expecting prices to increase soon, or the move to tiered pricing. I've also been stashing money away in US funds as the dollar is very likely to be a lot worse at the end of this year than it is now.

I booked our Jan 2016 WDW trip in July of 2015. When it was early October, Disney released specials and saved 20% instantly off my AKL stay. Was initially $312 per day went to $250 per day after the sale in October on disney's website.

From what I hear, the CAD is going to go down further but we don't know what's going to happen. ((I'm a canadian living in the US)
