I Think The Rates Might Not Be Changing in 2008

I just booked room only for January 2008 and the room rate on my confirmation was no different than this year's rate. I figured that was just because the 2008 rates had not come out yet. That was until I read the fine print and read this:

"Room rates and package rates for arrivals on or prior to December 31, 2008, are guaranteed as long as your reservation is not changed. For arrivals after December 31, 2008, deposits or prepayments guarantee room availability only, andrate and package components have not been determined and are subject to change without notice."

Unless I am mistaken, that means that my room rate is guaranteed and they can't change it. Does this mean that they aren't changing the rates for 2008? That would be nice.

Rates may still change and if you make any changes to your reservation it can change too.

I just booked room only for January 08 yesterday and was told that the quoted amount was for 2007 rates. The CM said once the 2008 rates were out, we'd be notified of the new total amount. She said that we were just holding the room. It would be great if the price was locked in, but we're going to change to a package when those rates come out, so either way it will end up being 2008 rates.

Speaking of 2008 rates, when are they usually released? We missed our February trip this year, and now I really have the itch to plan! Thanks!

I asked when I booked yesterday. The CM said she expected room only to be out later this month and the package rates to be out about a month after that. She didn't have exact dates, just approximate time frames.

This is something that has always amazed me about Disney. No other vacation do such advance reservations need to be made, and yet, they only have rates for the current year.
