Booking WDW room with Orbitz for family of 3-4

[MomForFrozenAddicts]

Just want to share my experience with Orbitz last week. I wanted to take advantage of the Disney summer promotion and the 15% Orbitz promotion. Spent a few days searching, and somehow the Orbitz price is higher than the Disney price for my family of 4 in a room. Finally, on the last few hours of the promotion, I tried searching for the same day and room with 2 people, the price came out right and I was able to use the promotion code. I called Orbitz and was told to book the room with 2 people then call Orbitz to add my 2 children. It is just the way with Disney room. Orbitz added the extra occupancy while Disney doesn't charge up to the max occupancy.

I booked the way as told and saved additional $25 per night. Orbitz has promotion time and time again. Hope this info could help in the future.

Disney does charge for additional adults (18+) in the room beyond the first two, but Orbitz can't seem to handle that distinction.
