Has anyone booked for 2011?

[wideeyes]

I am still deciding when to go next year, need to fit in WDW & DLP.

we have booked for Oct 2011 half term with virgin Holidays, i have lots of time to pay the balance! when looking at their flights for then i was finding it hard to book economy, they only had premium economy so had to book twelve days befor half term

For 2011? They must have not released all the seats yet for their package deals ..... surely?

We are going for just under 4 weeks in August 2011 and have most parts booked EXCEPT the flight, car rental and DVC. The cruise and villa, airport hotels and parking are done.

i have no idea why i couldnt book the class i wanted, there were some left on the later flight but we like to go as early as poss and not have to wait around¬ did not want to leave it too long as their prices might go up!

I believe we are still on Pre-sale with Virgin holidays until Easter when they release their main brochure. I assume they only release a limited amount of seats for pre-sale. Then in November majority of seats for October 2011 will be available on Virgin Atlantic as flight only usually cheapest way to go but not always.

not booked yet but planning for Feb half term and my 40th
I cannot decide on anything!!! I am really annoyed too as there was 10% off Virgin last week but I couldn't book as I haven't decided on where to go.

Does that mean prices will go up or down? Should I wait or book now?

For VH packages usually earlier the better but no-one can know, if they are not selling well the prices will drop and they will have a sale.
For Virgin Atlantic flight only, if its a school holiday again prices tend to go up nearer the time but if sales are slow they will reduce them.
Book when you are happy with price.
Don't forget Quidco or other cashback site
VA 2% http://www.quidco.com/virgin-atlantic?ac

excellent! The site I normally use is 1.5% My shopping rewards and I thought that was quite good as it would be £37.50 for £2500 holiday. Quidco is double that! I have just registered and started looking at all the offers - some really good rates. I am trying to avoid the temptation to spend

i booked about 6 weeks ago with VH, 3 weeks April 2011, 1 week at New Orleans French quarter and 2 weeks in a Villa, it's great having it booked as it now seems "real"

We have booked a 7 Night Western DCL cruise for October 2011. We wont be able to book flights until November. We are DVC members so cannot book the hotel we want until 7 months out either. I'm just so impatient!

 

[mrtoffee]

I booked back in november for Feb 2011, can't wait, already half way there with the money. 2 weeks in AKL here we come

Booked with Virgin using tesco points for October 2011 - initally booked from Gatwick then they released Glasgow so changed which cost an extra bit for ammendment fees but worth it.

Booked cheapest hotel but will use DVC points for hotel whilst we are there - maybe go to Vero beach as havent been there for a while. October 2011 was a lot more expensive than October 2009.

Never booked this far ahead before - think its reading all these boards just keeps disney at the front of mind a lot of the time

We've just booked for the first 2 weeks of April 2011, as Leeds school holidays seem to be that little bit before most of the other ones up here. We've been able to take advantage of cheaper prices by going on 2 April, plus a promised 15% discount for being frequent virgins.

This will be our 4th trip to WDW. Hubby and I went solo in 1995 (All Star Music). Took our 4 year old in 2001 (All Star Movies) and again when he was 7 in 2004 (off-site). We're staying at Pop Century this time.

Free dining was added to Disney and Virgin websites yesterday! Complete Orlando have had it about a week now, and seem cheaper than anyone else

I'm trying to get a quote now from Disney Uk but it's not even showing up when I'm on the final costing page and have selected the options. :S Was looking at Coronado Springs.

Oh it's showing up on room & ticket only but not flight inclusive. I wanted room only really any way.
