Just Made Ressies-did I do OK???

[Queenofthecastle]

I just got off the phone with CRO. I got a 30% off postcard PIN a couple of weeks ago.

I just booked Dec. 9-16, 2 adults, MYW plus basic dining, 7 day park hoppers no water parks, no insurance, at WL Courtyard Bunks for $2984.

At first he said my original dates (Dec 8-15) were not available with my discount, that the discount only applied to the dates Dec 7-13. I told him I really wanted 7 nights, not 6, so he tried shifting my original date by a day and the discount magically became available but only for courtyard bunks(we don't need the bunks and would rather have standard or woods view), but I took it anyway, for now. It didn't seem like a 30% discount to me (on the room) and the CM said he can't see what the discount on the room is since it's a package deal. He also said he couldn't break out the prices of individual items either because it's a package.

Sooooo can someone pretty please with sugar on top help me figure out if this is a good deal or not? We are hoping to be able to downgrade from the courtyard bunk before December to save more money....

I just made ressies today too only with no code. I'm not so sure you're getting the 30%. We have 2 adults, one jr and one child in our party. We have 2 more people than you and are getting at rack rate the woods view bunks. We are NOT getting park hoppers at this time. Still seems like with 2 less people your total should be more than $20 less than what we are paying. Here's a copy of my ressies if I missed something.

Maybe due to the difference in nights?

Both packages sound like good deals though!

I just priced your package on the Disney website with no discount and the total was 3494.06. Courtyard view with no bunks comes in as 3257.88. And woods view with bunks is 3179.06. It looks like you did get a discount. I would keep calling every once in awhile to see if woods or regular courtyard view with no bunks might come available because it looks like you would save a 100 or 200.
