FL res discount -so confused- HELP!

[peacefulgirl]

OK, I am booked for ALL-Star Movies on Oct 30-Nov 2, 3 nights. SIL and family FL res, 3 of us not.

I got hotel for FL rate of 79.00/night, but when I told a friend here, they said they paid that too on 2 trips and they are not FL res. what kinda deal is that then?

question 1 - So what rate should I be getting ? I am confused because I see this too on WDW site:


'Tis the Season for Great Rates starting at $55 at Select Disney Value Resorts

at http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/special/offerDetail?id=FallHolidayResortSavingsOfferPage

Ok I found the tix on the Disney site .... it was down and that is why I couldn't see them..

But can these be used as hoppers, can we go to two parks the same day?

Your friends rate could have been a passholder rate...as special rate for your state advertised in the newspaper, a postcard/email rate. Hard telling what rate they had.

If you made your reservations starting Oct 30 your rate from Oct 30...is the rate for your entire stay...you need to do a split stay making reservations for the other nights under this Florida Resident special, starting Oct 31...Oct 30 is regular season, Oct 31 is Value season...That is the reason you are not receiving the $49.00 rate with tax $55.00...call back. Keep your first night, then make another reservation for the other nights.
