Think I found a trip bargain at Sam's Club

[CynJ]

I am a member of Sam's Club and happened to run across their travel section of their website - so naturally I put in my dates for my Feb trip to see what it came up with- I think I found a great buy!

Based on two adults, leaving Hartford, CT into Orlando, Feb 14-17 with Mear's shuttle, and staying at the ASMov with UPHs - is $1112 including all taxes/fees.


I priced out stuff separately and this is what I came up with:

Hotel: $231 (77/night)
UPHs: $480
Mears: $58 (29/each)
Airfare: $592 (296/each)

Total: $1361
Savings thru Sam's: $249

Seems like a pretty good deal to me. What do you all think?

Before you book that rate......

Get a quote on a dream maker package with winter discounts for same time period. You may be able to get a moderate resort for the same price with the discount.

(look at mousesavers.com for more info on special codes for winter rates.)

Also, Southwest airlines has air specials right now that could get you 2 round trip tickets for $373.60 total (assuming leaving on 2/14 through 2/17 from Hartford to MCO)......

Think about four times about using Mears. There have been some recent horror stories - three hours from getting off the plane to arriving at the resort. I don't know about you, but I'd rather pay the extra $40 for a towncar, than spend three hours getting to my resort. Once you book the package, you can't get a refund on the Mears.

I am thinking your quote for airfare is really high. We are flying from IND for $118 each round trip.

I would keep an eye on air rates until you are sure you can't do better. Once you book those packages you are usually stuck with it.
