Okay, I'm sure this has been addressed in other forums, but I'm curious to see what you regulars and others w/ more experience than I would approach this:
I'll be at a conference in Orlando July 23-29. The hotel is on I-drive, but there's no way I'm in Orlando and not staying at Disney, especially w/ the wife tagging along. I want to reserve a room at the Yacht Club, but I know the annual pass codes aren't out yet. I had heard that during this time of summer, there might not be any pass codes for AP holders. So, should I go ahead and book the room and pay the deposit? If I know there's no discount, we'll stay at the Dolphin or Swan, where I can get the gov't rate for sure. Problem is, I don't want to wait too long to book something and have the resorts full, but am leery about putting down 2 deposits at once.
Got all that?
Any advice would be great! Thanks for reading my ramblings!
