Package Deals?

[ashmarie06]

When is the earliest that i will be able to book a packaged trip for WDW? Dbf and I are desperate to get to MNSSHP End of sept Early oct of 2013 (hoping to catch FD) but we wanted to book it soon so we would have a year to pay on it.

Any Diser's out there have an answer for this?

TIA!

When they release rates for 2013, which has often been in August, but I think it was a little earlier than that last year.

You can book a 2013 package when the 2013 package rates come out, sometime this summer. Book it with room & tickets, dining plan if you want it, pay the $200 deposit. Watch the DIS all next Spring to find out if/when "free dining" is offered (or maybe another discount will work out better). When the discount is released, you'll have to call Disney to try to have it applied to your existing reservation. Not all rooms/views are allotted to each discount so you might have to change your view or resort, or even your arrival date, to get the discount you want on the room you want.

Once you make the reservation and make the $200 deposit, you can make payments online or by phone until the balance is due 45 days from your arrival.
