Karin’s Disneyland Paris First Timer Tips - 2024

So I can log into the UK site (from the US) and book early? I usually go to the French site to compare € to $.

Yes you can. But to be honest, a week later wouldn't make a huge difference. It is probably more to spread traffic to the DLP website.

Agreed. I'm one of those people with bad FOMO.

I cannot book room only / I want to book less park days than a package deal
True. This is not possible on the Disneyland Paris website.
They only sell packages with hotel & park tickets combined. You can book a room only via platforms like hotels.com, booking.com etc. but it is possible this is not going to be a huge money saver. The package deals can include discounts or meal plans. Do the math.

Hi - is it possible to book a hotel/tickets package thru Disney and also a single night at the same hotel and room category thru one of the third party platforms, and then will a request be honored to stay in the same room for both bookings? Not sure I would make full use of an arrival or departure day park ticket, so exploring options. Thanks.

I don’t think you can guarantee it but I’m pretty sure they would try to do their best to keep you in the same room for both reservations as long as you flag it up with them as soon as you check in. In fact if you can get hold of an e-mail address for the front desk of your hotel (they are out there if you search the web) give them a heads up about a week before.

However having said all that, I would be surprised if this saves you any money - it might even end up costing you more. Once you get to the 3rd or 4th day of your stay, the cost of adding on an extra day is almost totally down to the hotel cost; the ticket cost is virtually nothing in comparison. And a single day without tickets from a third party site could well be more than the package cost.

Thanks for the insights!
