Nothing yet today

I have been to WDW 8 times in the last 4 years and never paid rack rate. Not even the week of Thanksgiving! Can't believe there isn't a code for end of April. What a bummer!

Well, called a short while ago to try and apply my CAA again eek: still not one available) and asked about any other room only discount..nada. I guess it's rack rate

there IS A CODE - it's the code for the end of April - for free upgrade to park hopper and water parks pass. Plus there is a code for discount room rate for AP holders. (Unfortunately, neither of those codes do me any good!)

.............. but there IS a code!

I did the ap code and if I did the math right I am saving $600...I don't understand why other people here aren't doing it?
What am I missing?

We also bought the AP we are staying at the BC with AP rate and dining for less that our original 8 day pkg at the Poly with park hoppers and dining. We are going to book another trip in the fall since we now have the APs!

 

[mikeysmom]

What was the rate at the BC??? I love that resort. We are booked at AKL and I like it too but I like BC better.

My family is staying at a value resort an the AP discount is around 15$ off a nite. Were going for 11 nites so its only aroung 165$ savings. The price of an AP would not break even for our stay vs the 10 park tickets. Were not going back within the yr because were going to DL in december instead.
Hope this make sense.

We got the AP rate of $259/night Standard view and approx $340 for Water view. Just booked it the other day.

 

[mikeysmom]

I would LOVE to stay at the BC again but I wanted to try and not have such an expensive trip and the AKL was only 164. It seems like no matter what our trip is at least 4k total so I am trying to do it for 2500 this time.

I just can't bring myself to do the values or mods. If I was it wouldn't be a savings like the other poster said. That makes sense.

 

[LillersMom]

Compared to the $399/night we were paying at the Poly it is a huge savings. I remember a few years ago we got the AKL sav view for $159/night. I think we did the whole trip including food and air for $3000. Ahhh those were the days! We actually got the Poly in fall of 2006 for 8 days for 5 of us with dining and park hoppers for $2800 and change! I am really missing those kinds of code

 

[mikeysmom]

It has gotten so expensive. Maybe it's the dining. We didn't do it this time. We are going to try and eat cheap and not have our trip revolve around meals.

Should have been more specific - no room only discounts for end of April. AP will do me no good, neither will Park Hopper upgrade - only going for 2 days. Probably won't go again until next fall. I should have tried to buy DVC points like I did in 2006 for a 2-night stay at BWV, but didn't plan that far ahead this time.

Oh well - rack rate or not, still going and going to enjoy POFQ - first time staying there!

Well I finally gave up and paid my package today in full paying full rack rate for my room. I am at my 45 day mark so If they offer anydiscounts its going to cost me to change the package. O well disney really doesn't owe me anything. I hope the rest of you get some type of DIScounts for your dates

 

[heartbeeps]

I, too, would have loved a room only discount but it's not to be .
I have made final payment (at the 50 day out mark) so it'll cost me a bundle to save any more money too. (Of course, they'll let me upgrade to a more EXPENSIVE package.)

As far as the AP is concerned, it didn't work out for us either. 3 nights @ $184 for AKL + $477 for an AP vs. 3 nights @ $184 for POR and no need to buy an AP because we have tix @ $35/day for Epcot & DAK. Just couldn't justify spending a couple extra hundred bucks to get the AP!

ah well, and so it goes....

They just released a room only code for DISNEYLAND on Friday from April 27 - May 31. Do you think that means something could be coming for us soon? I sure hope so.

 

[spicemom]

That would be very nice, although I think i've lost hope on the whole thing...

 

[M2DD's]

For me I think the waiting game is over since my package had to be payed in full on friday(my 45 day mark). SO it would cost me the price to cange it so it may not be a big discount. I'm sure there are other people who had to have there packaged payed off unless they just booked aroom only were not leaving to the last day in april.I was thinking thats what I should have done BUT I thought at least I should take the free ticket upgrade than get no discount at all.Plus I was worried there wouldn't be any rooms left for me at the all star sports I figured if I have to stay at a value I should get one of the ones that is the first bus stop plus remodeled rooms!
On the other hand I still hope disney release GPublic room discounts for my fellow diser plus if they don't I'm affraid the resort will be packed because they were able to fill up most of their rooms without offering a discount which may equal busy parks and resorts.

Hey did you guys give up? I had to bump this thread. Even though I'm still on the watch I've given up the toughts on any other general public discounts.I'm crossing my fingers that the crowds aren't that bad.

Here's a thought and a hope. Maybe a room only public code will come out after the most recent ticket upgrade discount expires.
Last day to book that discount is tomorrow 3/21, so here's hoping

Either way we're going to the Poly for 8 days.
