Hello! I am kind of in the same boat as you. We are going from Nov. 25th - Dec. 5th. With that time frame I chose to go with a room only reservation for Nov. 25th - Nov. 27th. From Nov. 27th - Dec. 5th we have the package reserved. If you schedule a package for the entire time you will be charged the regular season the entire stay. Since we are flying the day after Thanksgiving, I didn't want to get the package in case our flight is delayed for any reason. The first night we plan to visit the Trail's End Buffet in FW which is supposed to be a cheaper meal. The next day we plan to eat at the food court for breakfast and counter service the rest of the day. They also put it in the reservation that we are a continuing reservation. They said that we should be able to stay in the same room, but I will have to go through the check-out/check-in process. The extra savings are well worth it to me! As far as adding the package, also realize that packages have to be paid in full 45 days before travelling. I'm not sure if there is a time limit in which you have to book by.
