Hey Gang!!!! HELP!!!!!!!!!

We've made reservations with 10 day park hoppers with no expiration and the dining plan, also with a Courtyard View at the Wilderness Lodge for our stay which is from Dec.3-8. The total comes to $2481.68. Now after reading some great posts especially as far as extending our hopper tickets from 7 to 10 days for only $115.02 for the difference in the 7 or 10 days hopper tickerts with no expiration was quite honestly REALLY Appreciated due to the fact that there really wasn't that big of a difference!!! Don't ya just LOVE these BOARDS?!!!! I was honestly wondering if this is a good deal considering that there are no discounts for rooms at this time for that time frame? Thanks, Chip.

Maybe it is just me, but I am not sure what you are asking. You say your reservation includes 10 day hoppers, but then ask about extending a 7 day to a 10 day. I think the 10 day is a better deal, especially if you know you will return someday, but what exactly is your question

Well Chip, discounts have not been released for December yet, so we really don't know if you have a "deal" yet or not. If you have a AAA membership do see if you can get that discount, otherwise stick with what you have. You may be able to score something better if Disney releases some kind of discount for your dates. I do think getting the 10 day tickets is a great move. I did that on my last trip and now I'm leaving in two days to use the balance on my ticket.

Concidering what my quote is.....your's is a deal:
WL Courtyard View
7 nights
6 days hopper (experation)
dining plan
4 guests (2 adults, 2 kids)
Total: $4,629.90

How did you get yours at $2,481?

Based on your counter, it looks like you are going to WDW somewhere around Feb. 18. That is peak season. If you could check in on Feb. 15, you could save over $800. (You pay the room rate applicable at check-in for your entire stay.) Also, if you got a standard view room, you could save another $429. Also, if the kids you are taking are the ones in the photo, one is not a kid to Disney, so you are paying for adult meals and tickets.

The big difference is room rate $365 vs. $260 for Courtyard view and $299 vs. $205 for Standard (plus the old 11.5% tax)

Play around on the website if you are able to leave a few days earlier. It could save you tons!!

Another idea would be to check in earlier, stay until your current departure date, and get longer tickets which would only cost about $16 more for 8 day hoppers. You would have more expense for the meal plan and room, but the total would be around $4500 with a standard room.

Sorry I wasn't clear on my post when I was asking if we had a good deal. On this trip it will just be my wife and I going. Our 2 teenage daughters will be in school and taking exams and don't want to have to make them up. Anyhow it will be a nice and very needed break for my wife and I. I guess after reading so many posts I was wondering if this was a good deal which it sounds as though it is. It's that we're used to getting a discounted room rate with a code but it seems with the 50th celebration that discounted rooms are a thing of the past at least for now. Anyway thanks everyone. Sorry I wasn't clear. I honestly go on for too long. Thanks, Chip.
