good deal? or can i find better

[bex7583]

been looking at diney holidays florida and best price so far i have found is £7100 that was flights and 3 week in port orleans riverside
disney tickets
disney dining plan
discovery cove tickets
and 2 park universal tickets

we are a family of 5 , with children age 6,5 and 4

do you think that is the best i will find ? if not where else should i look at trying to save money ?
thankyou

When you looking to go? we paid £5000 for a family of 5 port Orleans riverside for oct only 2 weeks though so maybe that's a good deal that you found which travel company have you used?

 

[bex7583]

i quoted the flights, hotel , dining and diney tickets on the disneyworld website and the other park tickets on orlando tickets, i had originally looked at only 2 week but was only £400 diference between 2 week and 3 week so may aswell have that extra week rather than rush through the parks
it was 7-28th sept the dates i was looking at , october said it had no rooms available to fit our party in any disney hotel we could afford

 

[bex7583]

was the £5000 all your tickets and dining included? woyuld love to be able to get it for that price , my friend has said it is possible also but i cant seem to get it to anywhere near that

Hiya bex Definitely possible to get it cheaper than £7k for sure, just keep looking around, deals come up all the time, I wouldn't spend £7k personally.

Have you tried searching DIY, not on the disney site? And if you don't mind flying indirect (I'd actually prefer that, you get through immigration faster and can just go straight from the airport to your hotel at the end) it usually works out much cheaper

 

[bex7583]

that was indirect flights, yes i have looked at booking it all seperatley but flights have come up to about £3000 when i have dont it like that , unles syou can suggest any airlines that may be cheaper

the tickets i want come to £1026 for the disney ones and then another £1500 for discovery cove n universal ones so to get it ffor the 5k mark would have to find the hotel n flights for 3 !!! argh maybe im just looking in the wrong places !!

i definatley want a disney hotel though so not cutting costs there , will do the cheap villa thing next time i go

I just looked at the flights, its just as cheap to go with VA direct.

Price it all up seperate and add up and compare to the package.

POR, 21 day tix & free QSDDP £3,424.70 or upgraded to regular DDP £3,970.70

Virgin flights £2,711.95
Or Change your dates to 5th-26th Sept £2,541.95
Or Miles Plus Money (if you have any) £2,322.95 + 10,000 miles

Plus other tickets. How does it compare?
Don't forget Quidco for some cashback.

I booked with travel city direct and thats with tickets and quick service dining which is only free till 7 march but maybe on offer again if you can't get the 5 in a room best to probably ring them and see as I have found that on some websites

 

[bex7583]

thankyou wayneg that was very helpful but added together those elements with my universal and discovery cove tix its 7525

 

[bex7583]

the flights in october are much cheaper but then the disney world page says it has no rooms in most hotels that accomodate us, only ones showing available to book were yacht club and animal kingdom and grand floridian so im assuming the others are booked up for dates in october

We found Complete Orlando very competitive this year, you can also price the individual elements of the holiday. this is who we have booked with for our 17 night stay / fly drive and park tickets as well as DDP

 

[bex7583]

the same dates on travelcity direct are coming up £9004 thats just the hotel flights n disney tickets and dining !! that does have acar hire include dthat i cant work out how to remove but huge jump

maybe my £7100 is a good deal then

I also checked TCD, expensive.
Its not cheap at £7,100 but can't see anything better for you just now.

 

[Vixster]

I think that is a good deal then if everything is coming up more expensive we booked about 7 weeks ago and our holiday has gone up by £2000 since booking just remember free dining ends on 7 march but could be back on as it ended in nov and started for jan sales

 

[Molyneuxd]

Wow £7,100 for a holiday, then spending money / car hire / insurance etc on top!

My sister is a travel agent if you want me to check deals for your dates etc. PM me the info.

Can't compare but we have booked

Direct flights MAN - MCO, Mustang hire car, Westgate apartment, airport parking, airport lounge, hol insurance for sub £700pp

I don't have kids but couldn't justify £7k on a holiday!
