I'm trying to do price comparisons to see if the free DDP will really work for us in early September, and I've never done a package before . . . But I'm getting slightly confused on trying to compare apples to apples. Is there an easy way to do this?
For ex.,
a room only ressie for POFQ for our dates is $738 including taxes; and
a 2 day base MYW ticket is $357.84 including taxes.
But, the package with free DDP comes up to $1176.26.
Leaving me with a package cost of $80.42 more than the separate room plus ticket cost (obviously no free dining when separate).
When I tried a different ticket choice (10 day), though, I came up with a much closer number between package and room plus ticket, only $4 difference.
Any thoughts on what I might be doing wrong for the 2 day ticket option? Am I missing taxes? Am I forgetting where the photobook factors in - or is the photobook truly free?
Finally, if we wanted to upgrade to DXDP, is it correct that you just pay the difference? And the difference between DDP and DxDP is $33 so multiply that by 2 people and # of nights?
