Pop less than All Stars? Why?

[Kristina]

I just priced up, again, our trip this coming Nov. 30-Dec. 15th on Disney UK and saw that while we want the Pop and it is available, I believe Music and the All Stars are more than 100 pound more expensive. I didn't notice this before, does anyone know why this is? I mean I guess it's supply and demand but I thought that they had per night prices and that all the values where the same. This is going to push me to book and I was thinking of waiting another week or two, even though I am 99 % sure I won't get a better deal elsewhere.
Just curious (and a little afraid ).
thanks !

Have you checked the room type as it may be that only preferred rooms are available at All stars.

hi dont worry ,

i wondered this when we booked up last year and was informed from DW and from a few good people on here that All Stars comes under a different area in Orlando and the tax or something like that made the all stars more expensive that POP.....

WDW straddles two counties, Orange County and Osceola County. Most WDW resorts are in Orange County, All Stars is in Osceola County and they have a different room tax rate, that will add some cost to the stay. I don't know that it would add 100 pounds to the cost, though.

The tax difference wouldn't be as much as £100. The different tax rate is a very small precentage and wouldn't make that much of a difference to the total cost.

Ah, phew! I didn't realise they were in a different tax bracket, and also maybe the family suites are driving up the prices. I'll have to check again but I do think it was just over 100 pounds. Could have been me just getting overly excited, watch it be a pound or something. Thanks for the quick replies . Would probably be easier if I just booked already but it's a bit of a sport watching things as they develop everyday!

I just checked and Music is the same price as Pop, Sports is a £100 more as there is only preferred rooms left and Movies always cost more than any of the values as they charge a supplement to stay there.

It won't be the tax, the tax diffference is something like 1%.

Sounds like booking time to me!
