I have asked the same question at the Budget forum....
I have also checked the postings from last year trying to find out when the discount for October was released... Here is what I found out so far:
-- October is becoming more and more popular, probably because of the Columbus Day Weekend, Food Festival at Epcot, Convention seasons and the Halloween Party.
-- Special AP rates were available for September to the first week of October only last year.
-- DC members get the usual discount on the room. The amount depends on when you go.
So, let us keep our fingers cross for more di$count
allicat,
The Disney Club rates come out at the beginning of the year for the whole year. If there are any DC discounts for October they are already out.
Im thinking of going at about the same time you went last year ( right around Thanksgiving)
How were the crowds at that time?
Im thinking of fling out on Thanksgiving day, ( 16 yo DS plays high school football on thanksgiving morning, ) he wont be joining us, so If I see his game and miss a turkey dinner Ill be very happy cuz ill be on my way!!! Did you find the weekend to be very busy and did you get to go to MVMCP? Thanks
