I went on Webjet to get flight prices, selecting 2 adults, looked at the quoted ~$2500 prices and used that to work out how much we'd need in total.
2 Weeks later I go back and recheck and find out that they fail to mention that price is per person until you get to the booking page.
It sucks being a first time traveler.
Money money money.

Oh no! What a bummer

That's really one of the tricks for the unwary - all the different providers have their own system, some give you a total price and some a per/person price and they really don't always make it very clear. So sorry you got stung by this

The discounted fares for Sept 2013 won't be out yet So don't be too worried just yet

 

[australiankaren]

if you are hunting for sept fares start looking around 26 dec.....then around jan 1-4 they hit as low as they go IMHO.......

so chill, work out what flights you want then wait

i woudlnt be paying any attention to sep 13 flight prices just yet
im an ex travel agent....from experience right now the only prices on offer are full published air fares, it wont be till at least after sep 2012 that you start seeing anything reasonable for 2013 yet, you cant even book seats until about 360 days out

I keep reading posts in regard to how expensive is to go to WDW from wherever. All I can say is ...thank God I live in the good ole USA.

 

[australiankaren]

I think we'd all rather live here in oz/NZ and holiday/pay big $$$$ in the US...we love our little piece of the world

 

[Royal Consort]

That and America kinda scares me.

I much prefer living here.
I couldn't live without my Officeworks, my Umart, my Brodies, my including-GST price tickets, and most importantly, my Super Butcher.
Me spending ridiculous amounts of money to go to WDW would pretty much be like spending ridiculous amounts of money to tour down here, or, go overseas in general, so I don't mind at all.
