So do I understand you guys to be saying that you typically book "room only" reservations (thru AAA or Disney or whatever source), then wait to see if good package deals come out? I just booked an entire package deal thru Disney, staying at POP, for $1700, for 8 nights, only 3 of us. Is that a bad deal? I am not sure what is good and what is bad. Any help is appreciated.

Is the Nick hotel worth it?

How about the Carribean beach hotel in Disney?

A lot of people book a room-only and try to get an AAA discount or an AP discount later. You can't change a room-only to a package, so if you want a package book that now and wait to see if any codes come out.

Can anyone confirm this? It seems a little early to be getting codes doesn't it?

 

[lillygator]

it's not room codes, it's basically the package and you get the hopper and water park option on your ticket for no additional charge.

Still waiting for some AP codes starting at the end of April, basically after Easter.

 

[bdtracey]

Here's a question for ya...

If an AP code comes out can I change over my AAA ressie to have the AP code honoured?

Yes, if it is a room only and not a package.

The new codes for Ticket Upgrades are correct. My agent at Mouse For Less already called and said she got me the upgrade. It saved me over $380.

I booked a package with AAA with dining and park hopper. Can my agent use this code to get waterparks and more? or maybe a refund of the hopper option?
fingers are crossed here....

You're agent should be able to do it. I emailed mine with the code and asked her to get Disney on the phone and make the changes. I haven't heard back from her yet though.

What your agent will probably do it change your tickets to base tickets (no hopper or waterparks) and then use the code to get you the free upgrade. The more people you have going, the more you'll save. I calculated that this code is only saving DW and I $156 over on our 10 day passes but it's better than nothing!

Still, using the AAA rate vs. the rack rate for the package through Disney is still saving us almost 17%!!!!

Just sent off the eamil to omy TA-
I'm hoping she gets the email in time! This is why I'd rather do it myself!
Thanks for the info though!

We got this discount too, just saved us $512!

 

[JennyMominRI]

DO you think this new package discount means there will be no AP codes
"?

 

[krismom]

Can someone help me understand this? I just got off phone with TA- (who I don't love at this point!) and she told me that with the new promo, my package would go up $200-
Right now I have a Package at the GF with Park hoppers for a week at $3067
She said with the water parks and more option It goes to $3267. How could this be? Is it because you lose the 15% AAA discount in the process? Would it pay for me to cancel and rebook through Disney?
Ugh! I was so hoping for the water parks free- we are planning to go and pay admission for the one day....
Thanks in advance for anyone who helps!
