Eurostar prices more than double on disneyland site????

[pollyjo]

I'm trying to book a package for the 5 of us, 2 adults, 2 children aged 6 and 4 and one infant.

On the disneyland website, after booking the hotel, the eurostar transportation comes in at around £250 for the 2 adults with the children travelling free.

If I look on Eurostar website, it comes in at just a bit over £200 for 4 of us, 2 adults and 2 children.......

Surely, this can't be right????? It does defeat the point of the children travelling free!

I wanted to book via disney as I can use our airmiles and also I wanted Disney express.

Anyone know why it's more expensive via disneyland's website???

Thanks,

Pauline

I think I've now worked out that both sites have different special offers......the deal I saw on Eurostar was return for £59 per adults which's good. Shame the kids can't go free on this deal!

As long as you've booked to stay onsite with Disney, you can also add Disney Express to your booking even if you didn't book Eurostar with them, if that helps.

Cathy, we are about to book and I have also found it cheaper to book the eurostar part directly with eurostar. So please could you let me know how I add Disney express please?? - thanks ever so much!

I had this out with them about this the other day & the reason I was given was :-

They only have a certain amount of seats available in the cheapest subsidised 'band' & then after that their prices go up but the seats you get are exactly the same. I was also advised by the Disney rep to book the transport seperately as it was the cheapest option.

You can just phone Disney and add it to your booking, they'll ask the train you are travelling on.

Ok, we booked last weeks and saved £400 by booking separately!

Or disney package was £582, Eurostar £190 (hotel Cheyenne 4n/5d, 2 adults 1 child - 5) When booking through Disney we were quoted £1128, and that was before we even added food!! Because of the saving (we had already decided to go BEFORE the offer) we now have added half board plus and it came in at just under £1000. Still cheaper than with Disney. My Dad was so impressed he booked too lol so we are all going! Now I am looking forward to eating, dancing, singing, arguing with que pushers and having a darn good time!

We shall add the DE on at a later date as we are still not sure if it's worth it, I mean we are there for quite a few days so we are bound to cover most things!!

My advice to all is to book separately, unless you are in close range as the price bumps. we are going in July and got a great price
