Edited because I removed the pasted email. I was concerned that it may have contained info that could give my personal info. I'm going to try to resolve this issue tomorrow. I don't want to seem like an alarmist, so I'm going to sleep on it and try to find a solution.

Can you please give us more info? Why they wont honor it? Whats the deal with the $$$$?

It couldn't hurt to call Disney Guest Relations. They seem to be able to make the impossible, possible especially since you have made plans based on these dates. They want you to stay onsite and will likely try to make that happen.

There's really nothing you can do at this point via Orbitz. Their email means that Disney sold all the available rooms already, and AFAIK Disney doesn't pixie dust third-party reservations the way they might if you had booked directly and had a problem. Given how crazy expensive the few remaining available on-site resorts are (I just checked--wow!), and seeing in your signature that you always stay on-site, I'd either bite the bullet and stay off-site or just cancel the trip. Or, though it might cost more (though not as much as $1,000 a night at WL!!!), you might even consider doing DLR (if you can change your flights) and staying at a cheap Good Neighbor hotel a block from the parks. The 60th anniversary celebration is going on, all the holiday overlays are up, and they just debuted Hyperspace Mountain. So maybe this is magic in disguise?

Thanks for the pep talk, kmorlock. I'm hoping we/they can figure something out. I've already booked flights, so canceling isn't an option.
JohnDalesWife, I didn't want to seem like a crazy drama queen or accidentally give personal info, so i deleted the copy/pasted email. They're short-changing me a few bucks, plus their own promotional dollars- and they only offering off-property places as an alternative. I'm going to sleep on it & have a clear head when I make some phone calls in the morning. Blow some pixie dust my way, if you have any to spare.
Thanks for the suggestion, MikeDoyle. I'll hopefully get things cleared up in the morning.
