National Rates

[VinL]

I just did a compare between my 8 day Aug 26 - Sept 2 reservation using the DC Coupon and the Entertainment coupon posted above. There is a $28.00 discount using the Entertainment and a $50.00! Discount using the DC Coupon. The DC Coupon just arrived in the mail.

I think one of the biggest differences/savings is the CONTRACT number from Disney Club rather than the coupon.

The Disney Club Contract number gives you the best discount going over Entertainment, BJ's or any other contract code out there.

Regarding coupons, they're all almost the same. They vary from $10 to $20 savings from what I can see. I can't use the Disney Club coupons yet as I'm going in Nov/Dec and all Disney one's expire September 30.

I've tried the Entertainment coupon, the BJ's Club coupon (a little better than Entertainment), and now I'm using one that came in the mail for Mileage Plus members for $20 off. That with the Disney Club contract is saving me the most money so far ($63.49 total).

Anyway, I keep coming here hoping I'll see a post that the rates have come down again for Fall!!

Thanks for all the great info!

Beattyfamily,

Try this Disney club coupon at:

http://disney.go.com/vacations/travel/national_pop.html

good until 4/15/02. Don't know it it is better than what you already have.

I've tried using the DC contract number (10004392) on National's on-line booking, but it keeps telling me it's an invalid number...

WDWJon,

No, it's not as big a discount as the $20 one I have...thanks, I tried it already!

LisaRex,

That is a coupon you posted. The one and only Disney Contract number starts with a 5. I don't know if we can post it. The one you are trying is for one free weekend day and it expires September 30 so are you going after that date? That could be why you are getting invalid or maybe its that you are not going for a full week? Or possibly there are blackout days...

Disney coupon #10005317 expires 4/1/02 and is one day free. Try this one.

Good luck!

To get the best rate is this what we should do???

First, use the DC contract number (on the back of the card)

Then use either the DC coupon, or Entertainment coupon.

Can you use 2 coupons, or just one?

And which coupon is better? I have the Entertainment book, and all the original coupons the DC sent me in the beginning. I don't remember getting one recently in the mail, unless it was in that little newsletter.

Any help appreciated!

IMHO, the Disney contract code gives the best discount.

I think the Disney coupons also give the best discounts too, but I just can't use them because of when my trip is. So far they all expire September 30 except for Disney coupon #10005317 which expires 4/1/02 and is one day free. That one isn't as good as the $20 one I have from Mileage Plus.

You can plug in each coupon with the Disney Club contract # and see which comes up the best, that's what I did. For me, my BJ's Club coupon was better than the Entertainment coupon. They are all around the same discount, between $10 and $20 off.

As far as I know, you can only use one coupon and also one contract number.

Yes, I guess I should have specified that our $204 for 10 days is with the DC contract number and the $15 entertainment coupon. I'm happy with this rate!

Since you're staying for 10 days, consider using the DC "Free Weekend" coupon instead of the Entertainment coupon. It might save you some $$.

Thank you for sharing this information.
Robinb I did not see the freeweek end coupon on the DC site- was it available there?

VinL- A $50.00 coupon! which program. My mailman must be going to WDW soon!

Thanks again to all!
