last minute addition to our trip

[ajksmom]

Hello everyone!
I have been pouting because my family was planning a trip to Orlando and we weren't going to WDW. For my son and his girlfriend we were planning on doing Universal and Discovery Cove, then off to Wellington to see family. We just found out last night they may be unavailable to meet us. So I now have at least 6 extra nights with nothing to do.Guess what I am thinking? DING DING DING you are correct. Would love to bring my DS3 to see the mouse!
We finish the universal part of our trip on mon (6/28) and our flight out is on sun (7/4). We can change that date if necessary to 7/7. What is available for discounts then? I've read up on the 7/5 deal but that starts in the middle of when we can be there.
I belong to AAA and have a disney visa are they any help with it being so last minute? I have never stayed onsite before but would prefer to do so now.
We are a family of 5 - 2 adults, 3 kids(17,17,3)
Can I impose on you WDW gurus to help me out? Please?
Thank you in advance for any tips/info you can give me.

The only discounts that I know of that would cover the dates that you are there are AAA, FL resident and AP rates.

Of those, the AP rate would probably be your best bet in terms of availability and savings. Code BCG is good for stays beginning now thru 7/4/04.
**NOTE: THIS IS AN AP CODE, NOT ONE FOR USE BY THE GENERAL PUBLIC**
Only one adult in the group needs to have an AP in order to book up to 2 rooms in their name. With 2 rooms for 6 nights, it would be well worth the cost of the AP. Call Disney first to check on availability of rooms with the code.

mad4themouse,

Thank you for the information. We will find out by Monday if we really have the extra time to visit WDW. In the meantime I'd like to get a better idea of a budget, do you know of a way to check the rates for AAA, or the AP rates besides by telephone? Can I do it on disney's website? I can't imagine what a phone call could cost me checking out what's available and at what cost. With our trip coming so soon and the possibility of WDW, $$$ is kinda tight. We are cash only people and trying to come up with extra $$ in case WDW happens is hard enough.

Thanks again for your help!

Let me see if this works - it should be a link to all the AAA websites. Most of them do not require a member number to check ticket prices.
