Booking

[Isila]

I always booked via DLP site, this time I plan to make a call as I don't want to pay the whole amount at the moment. How much us the booking deposit (did I get the right word for that?) and when do I pay the whole amount. I'll be booking for the very end of March.

Oh, and can they search my previous bookings, so they get my last name right?

Hiya Isila. Yay for a new booking
If you give them a previous reservation number I'm sure they'll find your surname. They can email you the confirmation which is great and IMO it feels safer. I booked it this way and as far as I remember the balance is due a month before you arrive but you can also pay off in installments whenever you want as you're going along.
Where are you staying? Do the boys know already?

Sorry and the deposit is 15% of total holiday cost plus €19 (I think but possibly €16 of a booking fee)

Hiya we booked for the beginning of April and the deposit was 15% plus I think about £15
The balance is due 8 weeks before departure
We are paying ours off in installments but they told us that you should only do part payments over the phone as if you tried to do it on line it would automatically default and take the whole amount

Yay for booking and a newticker

Yep I was wrong, it is 60 days not 30 yes? I think its changeable at no % charge up to 31 days before travel - I think thats where I was confused.

15 sounds so nice as the whole amount is around 600eur. We're planing Santa Fe for 6 nights last week of March, need Sunday as Inventions Sunday brunch is a must

Will have to double check flights, prices and call DLP as soon as possible.

Wow Inventions brunch - I'm so envious, we've never made it but I hope we will. Sounds great Isila. We're booked for a couple of weeks later for my Mams 1st trip and a stay at DLH mid May. Hope you get it booked soon xx

Well, for French visitors, the full cost of the room is due up to 30 days before travelling, so I would have thinked that it would be the same for other guests...

I'm looking at 26th or 27th. Friday and Saturday are priced higher, I want to do Brunch on Sunday..... So..

Could you arrive Saturday evening and stay off-site for one night? Then move to your Disney hotel from the Sunday?

 

[Isila]

Didn't think of that as flight times are very nice, we arrive in the morning and have plenty time at DLP on our arrival day. But have to double check that too.
