Mousesavers reporting a huge deal for first half of 2009 coming tomorrow!

Unless AAA charges its own fees

Our AAA does charge a fee to cancel and it looks like a standard form. I'm not using them anymore because it made it so much more complicated for me and it didn't really make things easier. As long as they still get a commission they were fine--changes were no big deal it was just if you flat out canceled they wanted to recoup their commission. We didn't actually have to pay the fee and it may be that they can charge you but don't always charge you.

I'm anxiously awaiting to see what the deal is! We're almost ready to book!

Yes, we always book our own reservations. It is much less complicated when no one else is involved.

Hmmm. Not today's but it ALMOST sounds like you know something about free dining at another time!

This is KILLING me!

Pretty soon I'm just gonna:

I'm so anxious, I've got Mousesavers, WDW site, Disney rewards site and the Disboards all open in tabs. I'm such a dork, I keep checking them every 15 - 30 minutes!

So in essence, you're getting 3 days of tickets for free (although it's really just a few dollars more to add more days after that 4 day mark) and 40% off the room (3 free days to even out the rack rate 4 days you buy)? Oh and the 200.00 gift card if you go before the end of March.....so that's pretty much the whole deal, right?

While it is a good deal....it's not making me jump up and down at this point. I mean, we do during free dining/value season and we only buy 4 day base tickets anyway because we only do each park once. Unless they offered some type of non expiration cost on those last 3 days...they'd pretty much be wasted on us.

I guess I'll sit here and run some numbers for some different dates and see what we come up with to see if it's worth it to change our annual vacation....oh and then the question of dining comes in to play as well, we always get the dining plan....for convenience, so who knows how that will play out with the 3 free days.

Thanks for the headsup....gives us all time to run numbers and check dates

 

[DjdBrit]

I guess its just like the election.... we will have to wait all day fo the results

 

[DannysMom]

If there is a $200 gift card, I'm already thinking of ways to spend it! That's most of a dinner for two at Victoria and Albert's

OOOOOHHHHHH!

I've been wanting to try V&A's, if this works out we can do it guilt free! I likey! And my kid is gung-ho to get back to the Neverland club..... heheheh

Til tonight, that's me waiting, waiting, more waiting..... hoping for a big deal.

You're not alone. We were already planning our trip for June, so this just made it that much sweeter cause now we can stay longer. I'll have the sites open all day until it's actually announced

 

[eeyoreland]

I just tried booking a moderate for January 15-23 and all moderates were booked. Didn't try CBR. Any ideas why that would be?

 

[MomtoGKC]

I was wondering the same thing about how this will help those of us with APs. We have three nights booked at POR right now, I wouldn't mind spending for one more night if we could get 7 nights out of it. But, I don't need tickets. I hope it can be good for room only. I'd pay $89 more for the 4th night of the room but get the $200 gift card in return, so it would still be a pretty good deal. Problem is I don't know if we could use all 7 nights....

Me too!!! You're not the only dork...I keeping refreshing all of them every few minutes, too.

 

[girli565]

Do you think this will be for a room-only reservation? I really don't need tickets because I have an AP.

 

[DisneyTigers]

Even if the deal does not include FREE dining, do you think that dining will be part of the same package, i.e., buy 4 get 3 free?

Thanks!!

I was wondering about how AP offer will be as well. WDW is pushing giving an AP for Christmas on an email I received last week.

It might be because that is during Martin Luther King weekend and some kids have a long weekend because of it, other than that I'm not sure

I'm with you. I don't want to sound like a poopy doopy head, but I think Disney has gotten a little big for their britches lately. Yes, I know they are a business and so on, but I think they raised prices and cut out too much too quickly. I really really feel this deal isn't going to be enough. Sure, some will bite, but I honestly think there needs to be more.

It's probably a good deal for those who already plan to go, but since we have all day to wait, what deal would make you book a trip that you had not already planned? (excluding completely free of course )

 

[peel]

I really hope they offer some kind of alternative if you're not staying a full 7 days....a flat discount or something. I'll be really bummed if I can't take advantage of this in January because I'm not staying long enough. This trip has been booked for 6 months, and a large part of why we go in January every year is because of the great discounts we've received. This certainly would throw a wrench in the works.
That said, I'm very excited for everyone who can take advantage of it!
