How do you plug in the codes on WDW's website?

Like the DDI code that's out right now. There doesn't seem to be a spot to plug it in when it calculates your total.

Thanks!

or you can call 1407wdisney

Go to the main WDW webpage. CLick on the "tickets &reservations" in the top right corner. On the top left side click on "Special Offers," then click on the promo of your choice. the codes come up automaticlly.

Generally though, you are better off booking over the phone. The cancelation terms are generally better if you book via phone. Also, you just say your promo, and they usually don't ask fo rhte specific code. sometimes they do if they have more than one offer going...

If you have promo that's not advertised there - like a postcard PIN - I think you have to call to book it. Also, if you have a bounceback offer, you have to call AND you have to call their special number - not the general booking number.

Some general advice:
When booking a "room only" reservation, you are subject to very few restrictions:
You must pay one night's room rate as a deposit within 14 days of reserving your room. (Except when booking online at DisneyWorld.com, in which case full payment is required if reserving within 45 days of arrival.)

Final payment of the remainder is due at check-in. (Except for online bookings; see above.)

You can change or cancel your reservation without penalty up until 5 days prior to check-in. (6 days for online bookings.)


When booking a vacation package through WDTC, you will be subject to the following rules:
You must pay a $200 deposit within 14 days of reserving your package.

Final payment of the entire remainder is due 45 days prior to check-in. You have to pay in full right away if you are booking less than 45 days in advance.

You can change or cancel your reservation without penalty up until 45 days in advance. From 6 to 44 days in advance, there is a cancellation fee of $100. If you cancel 5 days or less in advance, you pay a $200 penalty.

Any changes that result in a rate change, such as applying a discount code, reducing number of days and/or changing to a differently-priced resort, made 45 days or less prior to arrival, are subject to a $50 fee.

Beware - WDTC usually adds nonrefundable travel insurance to your package by default. If you don't want it, tell them while you are making the reservation. Once you hang up, it's too late. You can add the insurance later if you wish, up until your final payment is due. You can also buy travel insurance directly and usually save some money that way.

Airfare added to your reservation is also nonrefundable. It's hardly ever a good deal, either. I strongly advise booking airfare separately.
