Use a room only code w/ MYW package?

[cabobber]

I'm new to the reservation/package routine and could use a little friendly mentoring... Here's my question:

If I'm able to snag a room only discount, can I also purchase MYW tickets and dining package along with my room?

My husband, son4 and I are planning a mid-Sept trip to WDW for 8 nts and want 7 day MYW tickets along with the dining plan. I'm hoping to get a nice rate onsite at a moderate.

I got a quote from AAA yesterday for the above package (POR std view) and the total was approx. $2100. For that package price, it looks like my room rate is about $100/nt. I'm not convinced this is the best deal.

I'm confused as to whether I should hold out for a better discount on the room. But then again, I definitely want to include the dining plan in our package...

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Some of the discounted room deals let you add dining and some don't. Someone recently posted that a "jump code" was the term CSR used to add dining to some room only discounted rates.

Dining seems to be a good value BUT remember to add any room discounts or even pass discounts that you have to forgo to the price of the dining plan. With a 4 year old will you even want to be doing enough sit down meals to make it worth it?

I have found that most packages (especially packages booked through my local AAA) are more for conveniece than for savings. If you have a packaged booked, you will not be able to add a room only discount to the package after the fact. However, if you book a room only with a discount, you may be able to add the passes and dining plan later.

Since the MYW tickets have come out there have been NO room only codes released...not general public ones. SO, noone really knows the answer to this. I wish they would come on and put some out already!
