Question about my code savings ..

[Crazy4Disney06]

I was one of the lucky ones who was able to get the 40% off code. We (family of 4 adults, 1 child) are staying at POR with base tickets and dining from 8/21 to 8/27. My question is since a DELUXE resort cost more then a Mod would my savings be more if I upgraded? My current package cost 2774.80, does anyone know what a deluxe would cost with the code?
I guess my question is would it cost less to book a deluxe resort since the savings would be greater??

Basically .. it's 40% off the rack rate of the ROOM ONLY portion of your package.

So yes.. since deluxes cost more.. you'll save more. No.. it won't be cheaper than a moderate.. because.. don't forget.. the moderate is 40% off too. What you may find.. is that it's certainly not very much MORE for a deluxe.

How much for a deluxe stay? There are a bunch of different deluxe resorts all with different room rates. It'd be impossible to quote you anything reliable. And of course your offer is predicated on room availability. Some resorts no longer have rooms at the 40% discount available.

The reservations center can confirm with you what deluxes have availability (if any) for your travel dates... and they would be best equipped to give you quotes on the price range.

You can do a quick quote of the room only portion by going to WaltDisneyWorld.com .. and choosing your dates and the number of people staying in the room and selecting ROOM ONLY.

The price that comes up.. (let's call it PRICE-A for room only) .. multiply that times 0.60 .. and that roughly is the room only portion of your stay. (We'll call that PRICE-B)

Do the same thing with your dates and ages of your party .. except this time as a 'package' and subtract the amount of PRICE A from the total. That's how much your tickets & add-ons are costing you. (TICKETS&ETC)

Add TICKETS&ETC to PRICE-B -- and that's your rough total with savings. Make sense? Clear as mud?

Now you see why I said just call CRO and ask.

One final warning.. just because a given resort shows availability online doesn't mean there are still rooms available with the discount offer.

Good luck!

40% is 40% whether you book a mod or a deluxe. The percentage off is not going to change.

The least expensive Deluxe if it was available with discount for room only would cost you 145 per night, the most expensive would be 253 per night. The mod with discount is 109 per night.

To Further What Sammie Said:

40% off 1000$ = $600 after savings

40% off 600$ = $360 after savings

At no point will 40% off a larger number be less than than 40% off a smaller number.

Again .. I hate math.

Well after doing some pricing I see that it will not save me any $$. I realize that my savings will be greater , but I was hoping for a less expensive package not just a bigger savings.
OH well wishful thinking I guess
