Cant believe I have just booked again

[jtlover]

I have just paid the deposit and got an unbelievable price - I think it is wrong but I have paid the deposit so assume everything is ok

30th October 2011 - 10th November at SSR one bed villa with free dining and flights.

You will never believe for 2 people (adults) I have paid £2,410 plus ticket total £458.

This is with disneyworld direct (who we went with last week) and flights with Virgin. The accommodation alone is coming out at £1900 approx!!!!!!!!

Great stuff!!

 

[joolz1910]

Wow! Great price.

Looks like a mistake but don't tell anyone

Just got a costing off Virgin, looks like it is giving a £200 discount for every night rather than just the once. Hope they honour it for you

Very strange pricing going on, if I price up for 14 nights in August it gives me a discount of £56/night (not the £200/nt you get) but if I increase it to 21 nights the discount goes to zero, they want almost £8,000 in a studio before tickets and car
Booking discount -56.00 14 -784.00

 

[howlongtillsummer?]

Oooohh I love secret bargains. Good luck!!

Looks like Wayne is onto something. I paid more than that (about £500 more) for 2 at POFQ for 2 weeks this October, but flying out of a different airport, which can also make a massive difference.

Well done though. If you have a great deal, smile about it and we will all celebrate and count the countdown with you.

Do you think they wont honour it then Wayne?

 

[cantwait!!!!!!!!!!!!]

Ive been looking at virgin today and for SSR they are charging extra to stay in a studio ! And to go from a 1 bed to a 2 is only £9.98 per person ! Quite tempted with the prices of flights alone being so high but would they honour it ? I was also getting a brochure discount of £2912 !

Anyway the OP booked with disneyworld didnt they ? well done great price !

Yes I booked with Disneyworld.co.uk

Hopefully but can't know, they wouldn't homour their last mistake when you could book Upper class cheaper than Economy.

Its still Virgin, if you get a price on Disneyworld it should be very similar(if not same) as Virgin holidays.
Your contract is with Openride Ltd, PO Box 1080, Crawley, West Sussex, RH10 1WN which is owned by Virgin

I stand to be corrected on this one, but a few months back there was a glitch with PE flight inclusive packages where they were virtually the same price as economy (think it was Disney UK) and they contacted all the people who had booked with the glitch and offered them a full refund or the option to pay in the difference. But then again, most of the time there is a problem with a system, the customer gets the good end of the bargain so who's to know?

 

[joolz1910]

I think I got the same glitch -
OKW 2 bed for 2 adults + 3 children, Virgin flights + tickets + free DDP = £6379
19th Oct - 2nd Nov 2011.
I wish I could book that.

Just checked and it's actually cheaper with Virgin. Is this the normal price?

 

[jtlover]

If they dont honour it I will just ask them to make it accommodation only with dining plan and tickets.

I will then book flights 11 months out - but I will wait and see what happens - will keep you posted

 

[orangetiggs]

cant seem to get the free dining to work on virgin! would rather book with them and lose my disney deposit if a good deal like this

I didnt book with Virgin it is with Disneyworld.co.uk which equates to Virgin in the UK though.

 

[orangetiggs]

yes its on virgin as well but not for our dates but playing around with others now!! got 3414 for 2 adults and 2 infants with flights 1 bed villa and tickets with free dining

 

[joolz1910]

I've just looked again at my dummy booking and it has a brochure discount of over £3000 but two adult flights are listed as £1884 each in economy class. Seems like Virgin and Disney have gone crazy.

 

[orangetiggs]

ah dont know what to do!!!! shall i book it or leave our disney booking and hope to get flights cheap

I dont know if they are going to honour my booking or not - think it is a bit risky to cancel your booking unless you can book this one as well and see what happens
