Okay, here it is...Official DIS Convention info!!!!!! (originally a post from the Community Board)

[whosezMN]

Taryn and I are the ones who volunteered to help coordinate the singles who are going (for sharing rooms, etc.) ... we have already started brainstorming, and are just waiting for a couple answers from Marsha and Linda. Please bear with us!! Taryn is definitely going solo, and I probably am too ... so we KNOW how it is to want to get this taken care of!! We'll get things rolling as soon as we can.

Thanks for your patience!

Sandy

Okay, regarding Convention passes, they are not good forever, but we're finding out exactly when they expire. I'll post more when we find out.

As far as solo prices and 1 Adult/1 child, here is how it breaks out.

Solo Prices;

Yacht/Beach: $1,146.35
Swan/Dolphin: $942.11
Port Orleans: $706.79
All Star Movies: $498.11
Holiday Inn Family Suites: $657.95
Holiday Inn Maingate East: $427.07
Buena Vista Suites: $600.23

1 Adult / 1 Child Price:

Yacht/Beach: $1,273.30
Swan/Dolphin: $1,069.06
Port Orleans: $833.74
All Star Movies: $625.06
Holiday Inn Family Suites: $784.90
Holiday Inn Maingate East: $554.02
Buena Vista Suites: $727.18

As far as roommates go, I'll try and set up something "formal" with the reservations page. I'm still working on that, but we will definately take that into account. As far as refunds go, the refund policy will be fairly liberal. I have to reveiw that with Linda first, and I'll post more details on that as I find them.

Thanks,
Pete

Pete ... I see that the deposit of $200 per room has to be paid by check; that's not a problem, but I'm just curious about the remainder of the payments. Will they still be due as discussed in chat the other night -- half July 1, remainder October 15? And will those payments also be accepted by check only? Or will credit cards be acceptable? (If so, which card(s) can be used?)

Thanks very much,

Sandy

Pete are those room prices with or without taxes?

Also Pete, are the convention theme park admission tickets park hoppers or are they 1 park per day?

Hi Pete,

I saw that the deposit has to be paid by check.
But, I'm from The Netherlands and we don't have checks. The only option I have to make an 'international payment' is by credit card.
Will that be a problem?

 

[BeautyLLM]

but I can't find the date for the DIS Convention. When is it?

Do you know when you can post a little schedule? I especially want to know what time things kick-off on Wednesday and what time the final event is on Sunday.

[whosezMN]

The Convention is November 28-December 2, 2001. That's Wednesday-Sunday, the week after Thanksgiving (which is November 22).

 

[NancyIL]

I hope that either Thursday or Friday is left open in case there's a MVMCP scheduled that night.

 

[Luv2Travel]

Yes, a schedule (tentative I'm sure) would be great! I know that we will probably have to leave sometime Saturday , and it would be helpful to know what events are planned for what particular days. Thanks for all the info!

Convention Park Passes are park hoppers and you can also extend them at the guest services desk at your hotel(Disney hotel only) if needed.
