Discount rates from TA

[kstelzner]

Hi everyone....

So we're planning a trip next spring to WDW (plus a cruise). We'll have a 4 year old and 21 month old. We are deciding between the Poly and BC (more on that later). I've tried calling AAA and it seems these 2 hotels don't have AAA rates. They are still around $350/night (Poly a tad higher). Is there a TA out there that can get a better rate than that? I haven't called up Disney to ask them for the AAA rate... maybe it's better if I called them instead of AAA?

I've just heard that it's usually cheaper to book the hotel, passes and cruise seperately. I can't seem to make that happen. $350 for 3 nights is $1050 and tack that on to the cruise price (cat 6) and we are now over the package deal and I haven't even figured in the passes yet. Are all you out there getting great hotel deals thru someone that I don't know about?

Thanks!

The AAA rate for the Poly garden view is $370 per night during 2006 regular season. That is a discount as rack rate is $411.

You say next spring if you are going anytime from Feb 16 until April 22 it is considered peak season. April 23-July 4 is regular season.

To save money do NOT go during peak season

We are going April 27 -- so regular season.
