Current *GT/MTO/FLR Discounts!

[Justacruiser]

Sorry for the newbie question, but once rates come out, what is the best way to book? Direct with Disney or with a travel agency? I have only cruised once 20 years ago, so I have a lot to learn

I don't use TA. I contact DCL directly and book OR on-line. Someone who uses TA could jump in if they want.

I just never know how long the discount is going to be out there and have seen family members get upset about the slowness of a particular TA.

We've used a TA (Tracey at Dreams Unlimited) to book a VGT rate twice and an FLR rate twice as well.

Looks like there are *GTs for the 7/29 double dip. Bummer I'm starting a new job, or I'd be all over that.

I am thinking they will offer the MTO for the 5A and 4A. Hopefully tomorrow or Friday. Will keep checking. I am figuring around $220 PN/PP

Ugh. I really wanted the 7/24 sailing. Do you think this means there will be no chance of a *GT rate on that sailing?

 

[NDFAN89]

So *GT comes before the MTO?

For a family of 4, the GT rate for a verandah room is $400 cheaper than a regular verandah room. Just not worth it... =(

I didn't say it was a good price, lol. Still way above my price point!

I booked and my DW booked last cruise. Each of had to be assigned in the separate rooms. Let me know if you book and I can give you a few pointers.

This is interesting. I didn't think you could get a 2nd cabin under the same ID unless your immediate family was more than 4 people. Do you and your wife both have military ID's? Not a spouse id but an active or retired military ID. I know that back in 2012, they changed the rules on MTO's. Would love to know the details on how this was booked. I have family that I regularly travel with but I did not think I could get them in a MTO cabin.

I know the rules have changed. If I book a *GT room and an MTO or FLR discount comes out, can I apply it?

Send me a private message if you want information please.

I am still shocked the 6-20 cruise has not gone *GT yet there seems to be some available I am not looking to book this one just wondering..

FLR only

 

[poohs4me]

FLR only

So just to clarify, so please let me know if I have this wrong. If I book the *GT rate now and a FLR is released, I can call DCL and they will convert or add or whatever they do so I get the FLR rate (Assuming this is cheaper of course )

 

[Justacruiser]

correct, that's why you don't see a lot of FLR discounts after PIF dates.
