What Am I Doing Wrong?

[Blndiebby25]

I am trying to look at prices for a possible Disneyland trip for next year but can't see any availability for the good neighbor hotels it just says Check Availability and shows nothing available for all of 2017. I have tried many, many date ranges through out the year.

Any idea?

Did you try clicking the Check Availability button? It brings up a page with prices.

Well, it is well known that Disney is known for its IT issues.

I would just go directly to the websites of those hotels that interest you and see what is available.

I like this toll, which will search your specific dates and give you prices (Price finder) and availability from multiple sources for the Hotels/Motel in Anaheim. You might also want to look in Garden Grove, Orange and Buena Park.

Yes. When I click on the Check Availability button it shows me nothing available.

I was thinking it might be an IT issue, Disney World site seems to have IT issues off and on as well.
Thanks will check out the hotel's sites.

I also recommend going directly to the good neighbor hotel websites. I recently booked our 2017 trip and found no discounts for booking these hotels through Disney. What dates are are you trying to book?

Yes. When I click on the Check Availability button it shows me nothing available.

Not sure what the problem is then as every hotel and every date I tried brought up prices.

It appears they do not have the 2017 prices loaded as yet. You cannot access anything past December.

 

[fsjking]

They are loaded and accessible. Unless we are talking about something different.

There's really no advantage at going through Disney for Good Neighbor hotels. You might as well go to the hotel's websites directly. You might also try 3rd party travel groups like Ares or GetAwayToday.

Well, GetAwayToday uses The Walt Disney Travel Company, so the same basic good neighbor packages as from Disneyland.com, though the prices might be a bit less and an extra perk or too. (Same with AAA and Costco).

I personally prefer to do it myself, your main parts are airfare, I have frequent flyer programs with multiple airlines,like to pick a specific airport,such as Long Beach and look at the "extra charges" which usually are not part of the package, such as baggage fees.Also, as far as I know, companies like WDTC don't offer Southwest, since they don't pay a referral fee.

Next is Transportation, either a rental car, or some sort of shuttle. I have Frequent Renter cards that let me bypass the rental counters and just go pick up my car, so I can look for the best price out of the ones I prefer.

Then we have the specific Hotels, once again I have Frequent Guest memberships, and most Hotels now promote a "lowest price" guarantee if you book online at their website, since they don't have to be the referral fee.

I also like to not just do one thing, such as all Disney, i do want to check out other places, and there are multi-park discount programs that give you a discount, such as the SoCal CityPas and the Disney/USH combo tickets. So going to places like Mousesavers is what I would do. Also, more and more parks (and other things) work on Surge Pricing,where you can get a lower price if use the directly and pick a slower date. The Park's website show those prices on a calendar (such as Disney and Universal), so I can see that if I opt for that Thursday over Friday, i could save some money for planning purposes.
