I called Disney this AM when I got the news (thanks Disboards!), and was given a rate for our Yacht Club (garden view) six night stay of $2012. I am currently booked through Orbitz at a rate of $2389 (which I was happy with back in March). So, I was excited about $377 savings. However, I needed to cancel my Orbitz reservation before the agent would book thru Disney (which made me nervous knowing I was taking a chance on losing my secured reservation and possibly not having the YC available when I called Disney back). So, I hurried over to Orbitz and plugged in my dates again, and got a rate of $1851, which is a $538 savings! Woo-hoo I'm a happy camper!! I went ahead and made a new reservation, but then called about possibly having them just credit my original reservation, so they had me submit a claim form and I'll wait and see what they are going to do. Bottom line: Orbitz was $153 cheaper than Disney today!! (Orbitz has a HOTEL10 discount code going on right now)
Yep, I'm happy!! I saved $538 today!!
I had a 20% orbitz PIN so I booked today with the fall discount and the pin on top of that. 8 nights at GF for $2800. Saved $600 more than bookin through Disney directly. Not too shabby!
I did have to book it with just 2 adults and then call orbitz to have them add the kids since their booking system tries to charge for the kids. They showed up in MdE right away. So excited for a dec GF stay!!
