? on December rates

[umaangel00]

Is there anyway to find out what the historical codes were? We are trying to decide if we can stay onsite but we would need 2 rooms and that is EXPENSIVE at rack rate. I know I can find out when they were released but I am actually looking for what the discount was.

I think is was $80 off for deluxes with an AP. You might benefit if someone in your party purchases an AP, especially with two rooms. I don't know about mods and values, sorry.

For the past couple of years if you have been going during value season in December it has been about $25 off values, $45 off moderates and $75 off deluxes - IF you have an AP and IF Disney releases discounts.

AAA offers 20% off values and moderates during the value season and
15% off deluxes.

There hasn't been anything for the general public? I can't justify buying an AP we won't use it more than 1 time.

There was a general code last December because we got it.

We had 2 rooms booked at Pop as a package with 7 day tickets and the DDP. There were 5 of us, me, DH and our 3 kids (9,7,4 at the time).

Before the discount our package (and we were checking in during Value season) was approx $3100 and once the discount was applied we were at $2650 or so. I remember that we saved $469 with this code. It came out in early August and our TA was able to apply it for us and save us the $$$. Our dates were Dec 15-22.

Mousesavers.com has a link where you can locate historical info on discounts...what time period they were good for and when they were released.

So that's about 15% right?

Last years AP "room only" discount was:

(Also, for Swan/Dolphin lovers, last Decembers special was:

December 22 - 23 $189 MAGIC189
December 24 - 31 $299 MAGIC299

Is the $20 off figure for packages at values too? Or is that a completely different discount? I have package with dining 11/30 - 12/08?

Here is the information you need: http://www.mousesavers.com/historicalwdwdiscounts.html#codetrends

Even though it doesn't include every single discount released, it's 95% complete. Example: the code that came out in March 2007 is not listed in this article.

My personal discounts during both stays using a code have been 40% for the off-peak season. I don't know that there have been any other discounts greater than this, but i'm not 100% certain of this.

From Mousesavers: "I don't provide the actual discounted prices from past promotions. That's because the rates almost always go up each year, and there is no guarantee that the same level of discount will be offered from one year to the next. In fact, as tourism is recovering and Disney theme park attendance is up, it is more and more likely that the discounts will be less."
