Booking thru WDW travel

[Tnkrbelle565]

Has anyone booked with WDW travel? We booked our trip (with $200 deposit) and I noted that it says the prices are not final until final payment is received. Has anyone ever had the price go up on them? My final payment is due in July but I'll pay now if it could really go up.

Virtually every travel agency has this disclaimer on their bookings. It's to protect THEM from sudden price spikes. However, it can also work to your advantage, as it did my family just after 9/11, when their package airfare went way DOWN.

It's not likely that the price will go up so drastically that you will rue the day you didn't immediately pay in full. But yes, paying now will guarantee that you won't get stuck with a higher -- even just a bit higher -- final bill.

You may want to be careful when booking through WDW Travel. I did the same thing--booked my tickets, car rental and a Good Neighbor hotel off site. When I decided to price it out individually, it was $230 less expensive. I called them back and they explained that they can only rent the hotel rooms at the rates authorized by the individual hotel, and often internet rates are less expensive. This of course has no bearing if you are lucky enough to stay on site (next visit its either CBR or bust!)

Staying onsite...but thanks for the info. And may I highly recommend staying onsite...even if it's at the value resorts, which is what we are doing. Saves a lot of headaches
