Problems getting quotes from Disney.com

[johnnyr]

Has anyone else had problems booking online or getting quotes from Disneyworld.com? I have been trying to get a quote from their site for two hours now with no luck. The message I get is:

We're Sorry!

I am always skeptical of this type of message. I worked for a company that used a similar type of tactic on their Web site to boost sales and charge higher prices for their products.

Yep, I just tried again and this time I got the same one you got - "Down for maintenance" message. Agrghhhh! I tried for a room only though.

They could simply be backing up their system. I've seen it come up before but usually late at night. Or they could be updating with new rates. Who knows?
