Booking through Disney online ?

[Bobmc27]

I have been looking at pricing a vacation at WDW using the Disney online site. Everything seems to look good. It supposedly gives me a GRAND Total however I at no point see where any taxes have been added. Can anyone tell me when any taxes would be added? Thanks for the help

If it has given you a Grand Total, then the taxes have already been included.

Well after doing some digging I found the answer I was looking for, it's hidden on the terms and conditions page.
"After package price is paid in full, package price is subject to change due to imposition of taxes or other government charges...."

Kind of sneaky in my opinion as I'm sure some people would have thought the Grand total was indeed the full complete price

I think what you found is a standard clause on all the invoices. I tried to call up the details from my last invoice that was emailed to me, but of course they've expired now.

IIRC, when you make your reservation the prices already include all of the taxes.

The clause that you cited is Disneys escape clause in case there are new taxes or fees that are imposed between the time you make your reservation and the time you actually visit. I've never been asked to pay an additional amount after I've already paid off my bill.

PS: nothing really sneaky here. similar to a lot of other conditions and exclusions that I've found with other resort or travel packages.

The grand total includes all current taxes and fees. They put that clause in just in case taxes or mandated fees change before your trip. They reserve the right to change the grand total if necessary.

Thanks everyone I finally noticed where I was making my mistake. If I had checke out the daily rates and totaled them I would have noticed that indeed the taxes had been included.

Hi neighbour Have you checked out our Canadian Board here on Dis?
For whatever reason, I use the web site to check pricing, but prefer to reserve by phone. And if this is your first WDW trip, you may get some extra help and suggestions from the booking agent too.

How are you enjoying the mess of Hwy 1 these days? There are a few of us here from the lower mainland. Welcome
