Christmas 2012 - when is a good time to book?

[DLPDreams]

Although we haven't got our June half term trip booked yet (I did book the flights today though ). I'm thinking ahead - would love to take my two to DLRP for the Christmas season as haven't done that yet. My DD1 always gets a long weekend very end of Nov/beg Dec as her teachers have teacher training so a long weekend will be doable!

Question is - when is a good time to book from past experience? Flights aren't out yet but will be shortly I guess so they need to be booked, but what about Disney hotel? They do have the 'winter early booking' offer on now but I'm not even sure how much discount it is when I looked as it didn't say

Thanks for your help

So glad you asked this - as we are planning a 2012 Christmas trip too, and not sure when to start thinking about it!

Hi, i called this morning and they advised they only had dates until 7th nov, the advisor then said xmas season not released yet until april when nxt brochure out. Arriving 7th nov they offered me 30% off x

Thanks but I think you've been misadvised - you can certainly book online now if you want to. It is with the winter early booker offer which is valid until 30th April.

I wonder though whether a new offer will come out with the new brochure in April - I suspect so - perhaps that is what she meant?

ETA - just relooked online and the early booker offer does state stays up to 7th Nov which is what you were told, but it is giving me a price for a stay at the end of November and stating it's the 'early winter booker offer'. So, I'm confused!

yeah its give u a price online to pay in full, *** iv tried loads of dates but over the phone they wont let u book past 7th nov.

I'd like to know this too because I have my heart set on early Dec. I'd hope for a better offer closer to the time but I don't really know!
