Should I book now or wait?

My original plan was to get an AP, go in Jan. or Feb, again in the spring to the flower show, and again in Oct for the food and wine festival. However, now, to get the discounted rooms with an AP, one has to book on line, and I'm really not comfortable with that. If Disney would come out with a code and I could book over the phone, that would be ideal. So, I waited for a code. Along came code YQS. Some said it wasn't a good deal. So I am waiting for a better code. Still nothing. This code expires on Dec.18, so if I want it I'd better move quickly. I know in my heart, they will not come out with another code until this one expires, and we have no guarantees that there will be another code, let alone a better one. My daughter really has her heart set on going to WDW soon. Any ideas, suggestions, or opinions? If I use this code, I will have to get tickets, so I will not be getting an AP. Without an AP I don't think we will be going to the flower power concerts or eat to the beat concerts. We usually go to WDW for about 2-3 weeks in the winter.

I would book now. You can always apply the new code if one comes out.

With the lack of great discounts this year I honestly doubt that there will be much better out there.

If you book now at least you won't be paying rack.

very true. I always book something and have always been able to apply a discount but nothing this January except AAA>

I wonder if I should get AAA coverage and save 20%=$16.00 per night? If I stay as many nights as I'd like to, I'd easily save the cost of the car coverage and get discounted rooms to boot.

Assuming we're talking about a trip in January such that you're already inside the 45day window, would that possibly incur the $50 change fee?
