October 2008 code watch

[debraW76]

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to let everyone know that the packages can be booked online now.
I was booked at Pop (room only) with AAA discount for $662 and now with this package and having to buy 1 day base ticket it's $541. I'd much rather have $120 in my pocket

Hope evryone gets a Great Rate

Again, how do you book the discount code online?

I just called Disney, went through the prompts to modify my ressies. When I got through to the agent, I told her that I would like to see if I could apply the GP code to my ressie. HTH

I got a pin a few weeks ago and got 20% off at the POP saved $111.30.

 

[leeh1530]

Wow, I was only on hold for about 15 or so minutes. I'll take that. I had my dad listen on speaker phone for a few because I really had to dry my hair so I could go to work to get the money to pay for this trip!!!!

 

[leeh1530]

One of the members of my Oct. gang just text messaged me and is trying to get through right now and is having a heck of a time! She said she's close to having a nervous breakdown! I must have timed it just right. Wow.

Who is your Dreams agent? Mine hasn't emailed me back yet, and I'm trying not to get upset. I'm sure there are other clients, but don't we all think OUR vacation is the most important?!

Beth is our agent. I had e-mailed her shortly before I checked our reservation, but I don't know if it was in responce to my e-mail or if she had already taken care of it.
Last year she checked automatically for us, but we didn't want to change resorts.
We have used Beth since 2003 and she is great!

Just a friendly reminder to remember to post your resorts dates and rates. I'd love to know how someone got a $55 a night rate. But I'm thinking it's a different resort and dates and therefore different rate.

There were no room only rates with or without codes for my dates of Oct. 10-19. At least that's what I was told. I saved about $220 from a AAA room only discounted room, which is about $88 a night at a value to a package with one day ticket from the All Stars Sports for 9 nights of a package rate of $650 (give or take $20). She said all that was left with that promotion (the DGL etc.)code was All Star Sports and WL cabins!! Wow that sure isn't much. I'm wondering how few dates and resorts they had for this promotion. I have to admit - I'm dissapointed. But I'm going and with a discounted rate-so I'm happy about that.

We were staying at ASMo from Oct. 16-25, but have now switched to ASSp to get that great package deal! I think she had to move us to ASSp because our Grand Gathering group must have preferred rooms in order to be as close as possible to the bus stops/cafeteria (one of our group uses a walker/wheelchair).

We saved over $500 on our trip

 

[leeh1530]

Oh yeah, whoops.

Oct. 19-25 ASMo
Pref room.
Package with 7 days PH tix and water parks
No dining package, we don't eat all that much or if we do, it's pretty unpredictable.

Was $1331, now $1218.58 or something. Not sure how it breaks down since whenever I see or hear numbers, I start to hear white noise or go to my happy place of no numbers.

I just checked our Dreams Unlimited reservation, and we are saving 225.00 on 3 nights at the POFQ at the end of October!!!!!
Now we only owe 75.00!!! (I was waiting to pay off the trip until after the discounts came out!)
Yeah!!!

This is the first time in all our disney trips that a discount code has worked out for us.

Maybe I will see you there! I will put a lime green Mickey head in our window!!!

Have fun!

Again, how do you book the discount code online?

To book online go to the main disney world website.

On your top right hand side there should be a link called "Tickets and reseravtions" Click on this

On this page on your left hand side, there is a menu of options, Click on"Special Offers"

On this screen you'll see "Fantastic Fall Getaway at the Ideal Fall Price –The 5 Night/6 Day Magic Your Way Package! " Click on this link and scroll down to the bottom. Click on "Get Started"

But in all your dates, etc and when you pick your hotel it should say "Rate Type : Oct - Dec Magic Your Way" If so than you got the fall rate, if not it is either booked up or not available for your dates or hotel.

Good luck and let me know if you need anymore help.

Oct. 21st to the 26th POP $445.55!

I originally booked my trip (10/19-10/24) at ASmovies with a PIN code that I got back in March. I booked a standard room w/dining and MYW base tickets. I called this morning and applied the QXD code and saved about $100 and upgraded to a preferred room. I then promptly spent the credit. My original plan was to book an airport hotel our first night there as we get in late on 10/18. With the savings I booked a room only for 10/18 using a AAA discount. I now don't have the hassle of collecting my luggage at the airport, schelpping it out to the shuttle, getting to the airport hotel, unloading all the luggage, stay overnight, get up, load the luggage back in the shuttle, go back to the airport, get to ME, get the luggage on the bus, etc. The difference in price between the airport hotel and the extra night at ASMovies was only about $25.

My AWESOME travel agent from AAA just called me back and we saved over 1300.00 . We did have 4 rooms, but that is so totally awesome. I hope it's right...I have this fear she left off dining. I'm so happy....not to mention I just got a phone call from our son and new DIL from the Poly. They just got off The Wonder and arrived for 2 nights at the POLY. We are all so jealous here at the house!! My DS6 made the funniest mad face when I told him big brother had called from the arcade at the Contemporary !! It was priceless! I texted it to big brother and new wifey .

 

[qin]

On hold right now!!!!

We are planning to go Oct. 11- 18 with POP, and definitly want to get the $55 rate. we have no AP, no AAA, and want room only, is it possible to get that great rate? also, should I call WDW directly or call Dreams Unlimited Travel?

 

[MamaOfTwoPrincesses]

OK, we weren't able to get a discount code for the Contemporary. My TA said she could get us into the Poly at the same rate, but that was no longer available when I finally reached her. Now she says we can get the Beach Club for $200 less than our original reservation. I haven't heard back yet though!

 

[Tink&Peter]

Is it possible to have a code discount applied to current AAA reservation? And if so, how do you do it?

 

[Colinsmom]

We're going October 16-21. All of our quotes were with 1 day base tickets, no dining, no trip insurance.

BW, BC, SSR, OKW - not available

YC water view: 2,266.09
WL courtyard view: 1,591.09

Didn't check any moderates or values for availability. She offered to check AKL, but we've stayed there a couple of times and wanted something different this trip.

We booked the WL courtyard view. It comes out to a 26.5% discount off of rack rate (assuming no discount on tickets). Now we have to decide between our Swan ressie at 199/nite (with no need to purchase tickets) and this ressie! Oh, decisions, decisions!

Spent 25 minutes on the phone total.

 

[84disney]

Yes, you can get the new code/discount applied to a AAA ressie. I just did that through my TA. Just call your TA and ask them to check. They won't double discount, but the new code/discount is way better than what I had through AAA. And, I thought the AAA package was pretty good. Hoping for the best for you.
