Hi,

I am hoping you Disers can help me understand this. The deal says that kids 3-9 stay and play for free. However, this doesn't seem right.

For example. I checked out the hotel only prices for 2 adults and got a price. I then went back and put it the same dates and hotel for 2 adults and one child 9. Well the price was the same. How is the "stay" part a deal? Really the only deal is the price of the tickets. Is the slogan just that and the "stay" part doesn't mean anything?

I am trying to figure out if this is a good deal.

Thanks:)
 
It's just marketing. There's no stay free because they're free anyway. Just the tickets are free.

It's an abbreviated version of the kids stay, play & dine free tag - but they removed the dining this time, so it's just the tickets.
 
Thank you for your quick response. That is what I thought.

Back to planning.:)
 

Yes, it is just the tickets that are free. We ended up saving over $400 though by not having to pay for the tickets for our 2 oldest. It was a better discount using this than the 20% off at POFQ.
 
For us with 3 kids under 9 it is a way better savings than any room discount. Too bad we can't go this year :(
