Kids for free!

[Ericandus]

I called today to check on a code and was told I have a "new" code that just came out today that lets kids go for free!! Considering we have 3 kids, this is a very exciting idea for us! I was told it included room, park tickets and dining!! However when I was given a quote, it sure didn't seem like much of a savings. Can anyone help out with this? Thanks so much!!

 

[2littleprincesses]

I got this same code too and am a newbie. I am wondering if it is a good deal also. Need to call and get a quote I guess.

Can you still get in on Character dining reserving so late?

 

[ajk912]

I haven't called yet, I just got my offer too! What was your quote? We have to stay at POR, and it would have be $2100 or less for me to really consider it a deal...

 

[My2BabiesLexis&Dill]

How are you all getting these codes? Email, mail or what?

Thanks allot.

I too am an Amy, with 3 kids ages 10, 6 and 3 (maybe that is the problem..oldest isn't considered a "kid"??) We were quoted $3599 for 4/25-5/2 at Port Orleans Riverside or $4102 at All Star Music in a suite. When I got on-line and looked at a package at All Star in a suite with hopper tickets and dining package for just 2 adults the total was $3018. I don't get it?!?!

 

[Ericandus]

...and I called WD reservations to check and see if I had a code. No e-mail or postcard or anything!

Hmmmm...are you sure you added the dining option? I just plugged in your numbers and dates...park hopper, with dining plan, AllStar Music suite..$4269.71 (rack rate). What did the CM quote you on that room?


You also have to realize when they say kid's free (3-9)...you don't pay extra for kids in the room...dining meal a day is $10/day...the ticket part is where you should be saving decent on for them.

Unfortunately, your dates aren't within the promotion timeframe. Also, promotion doesn't include park hopper option.

My dates are 4/7-4/10

I think I need sleep...I read your quote wrong when you said (just 2 adults you plugged in)....

If you go with that deal...you will be paying for your 10 year as an adult for tickets and dining & the park hopper option on your 3 children's tickets....now you would add your price for 2 Adults plus these costs....hope that makes a little more sense.....

sorry again for wrong explanation before....

 

[Ericandus]

okay, called back to try and get more info...
talked to a different person and was quoted $3836.35 for an All Star Music Suite for 4/25-5/2. As I thought, oldest child is 10 and is considered an "adult". So basically we are paying for 3 adults for a room, 7 day hopper tickets, and dining plan and getting the 2 youngest kids free. WHEW!! I sure appreciate all the help guys! We might stick with our original plan to go January 2010 during value season and beat the heat, crowds, and still pay just a little more. I will have to do some more figuring on that one!

 

[Ericandus]

and the terms of my offer was kids 3-9 free anytime from 3/1-5/2. Any resort, any tickets. How do they keep up with all that???

 

[gailanncreates]

Wouldn't it still work out cheaper to do the 4/3 deal instead?? It wouldn't cover the April blackout times; I can't see how the two kids are really taking that much off your package.

 

[momto2inKC]

I got the email too Unfortunately my 'kids' are both over 9 now Figures I finally get a pin code and can't use it.

Actually my difference will be more like $500 cuz they added the insurance which I will have removed

 

[Ericandus]

Kim, thank you so much for your advice! I have definitely thought about that FOR SURE!! I also priced this exact package in early December (value time) and even with no discount at all, it was only $30 more. I am pretty sure that the weather would be cooler and the crowds would be smaller then, too...I just hope maybe I can get a code for in January! THAT would be a DEAL!! I am jealous of all you folks going so soon!!

I would LOVE a code for next year!!! We just went in August, so even though I definitely appreciate the pin codes I just got..I can't use them, we can't afford to go back after only 6 months! Wish we could, though!

 

[2littleprincesses]

Can't use the code anyways. Somehow I got an email for a woman named Doris with my same last name. This was not a forwarded email. So since it is not for me, I cannot use it. I did send for the dvd though so maybe some other day I will get a code I can use. Bummer.
