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

[zippy001]

I "booked" 7 nights but told the CM I was only staying 6. At $50 a ticket for NWA to change, that extra day wasn't worth it. I did have to add a night of dining plan, but that's fine because we do a lot of 2 TS meals. Even with all of that we save several hundred. I was able to use Magical Express on our return day a day prior to our "official" check out date.

You can book just the 6 nights. That is what I have.

You have to go for the full 7 nights to get the deal it seems. NWA might charge you nothing, or they might charge you a bunch. Its outlined when you buy your ticket and is dependant on the ticket you bought. They sell a bunch of different types for every flight.

Thank you, so if I go to the trouble of calling NWA, are there only a limited # of discounts available for each resort? I can just see me changing my flights around and then finding out the discount isn't available.

According to the Walt Disney TA I talked to, these packages are always limited.

I know that I can't transfer my reservation with Walt Disney Travel Co. to my TA.

I believe you can transfer your res to a TA. You will have to sign a paper stating you want this done.

You don't need to change your airfare you can book just the 6 nights. I would call Disney first to get your reservation and if you can't do 6 nights then call NWA

Oops, I missed some of these posts while DD distracted me. I'll just have to call after I get them to bed. Thanks!

There seems to be a limited amount per room code. I couldnt get the CR one I wanted, but could get the WL room I wanted. I decided on POFQ. I was wrong as two people pointed out about the room, they say 2 free nights is an option. Sorry I couldn't be more specific about the airfare but there are usually 4 different types of tickets sold for any flight with a different penalty for each. They range from none (you probalby do not have this) to a decent chunk of the ticket price. You're probalby in the middle, it almost always says on the documentation that came with the ticket.

How is anyone getting savings on the dining?

I booked June 17 - 23 w/dining plan, 3 adults (one is only 10 yrs old), and 1 child...standard room for $3400....we got 9 day parkhopper passes; we're staying at Swan for an additional 3 days for work.

 

[jayhjay]

woo hoo, I just booked! Actually I rebooked myself b/c I was too impatient to wait for my AAA agent to do it.

We saved about $430 on our 8 day trip to CBR w/dining. I am so excited!

FWIW, does anyone know if AAA can still apply their discount to this code? For example, can they still discount dining? Or am I just being greedy now! My guess is no, but I assume I'll find out for sure when my agent calls me back.

Yeah!

 

[jayhjay]

just got hung up on after 30 mins of waiting...this is so ridiculous...

Try online - I booked right away, no waiting.

I don't think anyone is getting any savings on the dining for this promotion...some people are comparing this deal to the free dining promotion, but the two are not offered at the same time.

We're booked! We cancelled our room only ressie and booked out pkg for May 2009. I got 10 nights at Coronado Springs and 9 day park hoppers for 3 adults = $2220, we ended up saving about $600. I'm still undecided on the dining plan but the CM said we could add it on at a later date if we so choose.

Now a question....we usually only do room only ressies, so what's different with a package? We know all about the payment and cancellation policies on a package vs room only, my sister said when you book a package you get a luggage tag, free photopass photo, coupons for mini golf, etc. Do you receive those upon check-in?

How did you book online? When I did it, it came up with the regular price. Did I miss where to put in a code or something?

I have a room only ressie now. I'm thinking about booking a package online, then calling when the phones aren't so busy to cancel the room only. Can anyone think of a reason why I shouldn't do this? Thanks!

For $1.12 more We upgraded to Old Key West, Studio.
Plus got the $200 gift card!!!

I'm sure CBR would have been nice, but this is awesome!!!
