Possible Minimal DDP Price Increase

[sharonabe]

I priced out a 2016 vacation for January, and it looks like DDP prices may be going up just a little. My math shows this:

QSDP
Adult 42.84 (2015 41.99)
Child 17.47 (2015 16.03)

DDP
Adult 61.84 (2015 60.64)
Child 20.96 (2015 19.23)

DxDDP
Adult 111.73 (2015 109.53)
Child 32.56 (2015 29.86)

Your math looks right from what I priced out. Not much of an increase...and from the 2016 brochure info...I'm doubting all of the rumored changes are actually going to be implemented. Snack value increase and dessert/drink trading, yes. But using child credits for adults and ordering adult meals for kids, etc. is looking less like it will be officially sanctioned whether they end up enforcing that or not.

DxDP matched your numbers

It appears that the math may vary based on dates or length of stay judging from comments? Or maybe there are some pricing bugs on the first day?

Who knows? If they really are taking away the app for DxDDP, that price point is way too high. It will be difficult to break even without the apps.

Agreed...How do you justify taking away the appetizer while raising the prices a couple of dollars? Unless they want to do away with deluxe and push people down to regular or up to premium, it doesn't make sense. Maybe it is a mistake/oversight, but that would be a huge mistake for no one to catch before putting it on the website!
