June 7 nights-
2 adults, 2 kids 14 dd and 9 ds
Dolphin standard: $1155.00
6 day park hoppers from UT: $1157.00
Car, National crossover: $233.00
Budget for food: $1050.00
Misc--gas for rental, parking at Dolphin, tips, water & food (breakfast stuff ) for the room: $180.00
JetBlue from CT to MCO: $1257.00
Total: $5032 :yay:

Doesn't include souvenirs or the $400.00 free gift cards from Disney Visa-will use the 400 to offset some of the food and gifties the kids want...and maybe something for mom??? :confused3
 
I don't know the exact breakdown and we haven't booked our flights yet, but:

September 11 - 16
CSR
$2302 - includes standard room, 5-day Park Hopper and upgrade from DDP to DxDP

I expect our flights will be anywhere from $900 - $1200.

(We did get a pretty awesome offer for Epcot Wine and food to stay at the CR or BW with DxDP, base tickets plus one day at DQ or the water parks for only $700 more but we couldn't make those dates)
 

Proof that even a FREE trip is not free! :)

August: Airfare for 3: $0 ( I went crazy opening SW Visas earned free roundtrips and 1000 in giftcards. Still have 1000 left for next trip! USed 3 Free Roundtrips for August.10

6 nights POFQ with dining plan: $0 (won in AAA contest)

7 day MYW w/PH: Again 0 but I am able to put these towards 10 day no expire tickets but MYW only, no PH.OOP $500 to do this for 3 people.Plan to use 3 park days this trip and bank the 7days for 2 future trips. I THINK this is a smart thing? I go back and forth...

3 nights at YC CL: $1050. 35% off. Nope not free. See Disney has hooked me on this place and I can't even enjoy a free contest stay elsewhere without HAVING to pitstop here! :) It has been a real money saver for us in terms of food, etc. We don't really like the dining plan so opt for this option at CL instead however we will certainly enjoy the DP on the front end of the trip...

Rental Car: $200

OOP: 500 tx upgrade, 1050 YC Stay and Rental CAr. BUT I will walk away with 7 days left over on tickets to use anytme for the 3 of us...so I think it is a good deal!!

Are most of you booking through Disney directly?

We used a travel agent last time and got a steal of a deal with their Agency Exclusive offer....GF CL. Now that we've been spoiled, we're trying to do the same again. Unfortunately, that same TA doesn't have any Agency Exclusives for our dates.
 
This is a great thread, very interesting :goodvibes

I've booked through an agent who has booked part of my trip through Disney Travel UK (to qualify for free dining), price is converted from £ to $:

Beach Club (CL)
just me :)
6 nights/7 days (8-14 November)
free dining - upgraded from the standard plan to the deluxe plan at approx $24 a night
7 day hopper ultimate upgraded (no charge) as part of offer to 14 day
total cost for BC stay is $3,951
having the free dining (minus the upgrade cost) has saved me a fortune

I've then booked the last 2 nights (14-16 November) room only at AKL through Disney Travel US for $900 (although if a discount comes out my agent will apply to this booking)

Insurance is separate as I have to have full medical/travel insurance as from UK, this cost me around $350 but lasts for 12 months and covers me worldwide

Airfare - way too much, business class on BA from UK to MCO :rolleyes1

This is my last trip for quite a while so I wanted to make it special :goodvibes
