Staci Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Does this include air? The $1600 package I've seen on TV does. Hubby just said those dates would work for us, I'm checking into it tomorrow! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Me Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 We rented a house right outside the park. MUCH cheaper. We were there for Christmas. Rented a 3 bed 2 bath house 5 miles ffrom the main entrance to the park for $340 for a week. Had a washer and dryer and all.

Hubby just said those dates would work for us, I'm checking into it tomorrow! ThanksI don't think so. I priced air through them for my trip and it was $1,500 for just 4 of us flying out of St. Louis As of now, we are driving because airfare is outrageous. I'm hoping for a good DING soon or for fare to drop a bit as we get closer to the date. My AAA agent did apply the changes to my ressy, but it was either or. I wanted the upgrade to the waterparks, so I lost my AAA room discount (you have to pay rack rate to get the deal) however, by dropping down to just a 7 day base ticket ( I was paying for a park hopper) the $$ difference covered the AAA room rate difference. It's confusing. See, when we got there, we were going to purchase water parks and more for my 2 teens for a few days- hubby and I have no interest. This saved me a couple hundred $$ with this new special. Also if you book with AAA during the month of January- you get a $25 Disney gift card too I'm too excited about this trip. WDW is my favorite place on earth Oooh, I forgot to mention- I have ressies to eat at Crystal Palace in Magic Kingdom- It has all the Pooh characters- My Eeyore !!!

jrdoa Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Thanks for the info. How was the crowd during your stay?The crowds were minimal. We stayed at the Pop Century and the only aggravating part was waiting for the buses to take you to the park or resort. At times, it seemed like 30min - 1 hour.At the parks, the majority of the rides were maybe 10 minutes or less wait time. I would definately go back again that time of year.

When ever Disney does a commercial, it is only for them, no air included. That $1600 commerical you saw was for a family of 4, 7 nights value resort & park tickets.

I would definately go back again that time of year.Yep, that time of the year is really good. The only time you have to watch in October is Columbus day. Most of the counties in Florida have that as a school holiday and that is when many who have Florida passes go. We were one of them and it was pretty crowded. But end of Sept and first week of Oct. is good because everyone is back in School up north by then! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disneynutangie Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 The commercial does not include air. If flying I would purchase it seperate from a Disney package. We go in February and I have gotten great rates during that time. This year we are going again in September and then December. I am and wishing for the free dinning plan but if not that is fine. I am kind of worried that if they do offer it the crowds will be heavy. It seems to be the tread of the past 2 years. Of course that is what Disney wants. I have seen rental homes and checked into it but never that cheap. Good deal!! For the majority of the ones I looked into were $900 which included private screened in pool. Don't remember the exact website but just google it. Check out www.disboards.com and mousesavers.com. You will find lots of helpful information.

ms_mckenna Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Just out of curiousity. We are planning a December trip ... I know Dec codes will not come out until Aug. For those of you that have booked thru disney before what is the deposit? Is it a % or a flat fee? I was thinking of going ahead and booking and then appling the code in August if there is one that will work for our dates just wondering how much I needed to set aside for a deposit? Nevermind found my answer. Is anyone else here going in Dec? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammbone Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 We are going in July, we have rented a 6bedroom home in Windsor Hills Resort...Cheaper than a hotel ( they say they are the closest resort to disney) they are a gated community++, they have a pool with water slides, theater, playground, fitness area, you can rent townhouses, condos 2-7bedroom houses starting under 100 per night depending on the time of year. there are other resorts some much cheaper, but with all the ammenities this won hands down and during peak season we are around 225 per night, but sharing with other couples so it is soooo cheap!!!

disneynutangie Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 I see MS Mekenna you found out it was $200. for deposit. We are going in September and as far as we know December. I really want to go during the Christmas season to see how nice it is decorated. Thing for us could change at any time as we are trying to have a baby. Another thing large family or anyone could do was rent points from DVC owners. It was going to cost a around $2700 a week at the Boadwalk for a 2 bedroom villa. Not bad at all when two families will split the cost. Not only will you save that way but you have the option of purchasing the dinning plan once checked in. I think it was $40. per adult per day which can be a huge savings. Many nights we spend $100.00 nearly just for dinner for the 3 of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ms_mckenna Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Ya we are trying to decide between Dec 07 and Dec 08. DH is making me rethink 07 lol. Talking about if we save for an extra year how much more bang we could get . Just wish I could go ahead and book 08 now . Going to try for a magic and a illumination boat ride though when we go would be cool to split it with a gder . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kayakmom Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 We went the week after Thanksgiving and rented DVC vacation points to stay at Villas at Old Key West. We had a 2BR and it was great. I was suspect of the transportation at first, but we didn't end up using our car the whole time we were there. It was great and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. The room rates for what we had are $540 a night, but we got it for $240 a night. We also got all of the 10 and 20% discounts and other benefits of being a member. Even though we were just there, I'd love to go back again. Maybe I'll tell hubby to return to work after I have the new baby so that we have some Disney vacation time again this year! I'm very tempted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiriJoan Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 For everyone that's going in December, makes sure to go to Very Merry Christmas at Disney. It's seperate from the regular passes because it happens at night (7-12). They serve free hot cocoa and cookies and it's really the best thing I've ever been to at Disney. Although, I live in Orlando so I sort of take Disney for granted. But it really is beautiful. They shoot off fire works by Cinderella's castle and tell a story of love and hope. My fiancee proposed there in '05. They usually run it from the last week in November until Christmas. They limit the event to only like 500 or 1000 so people, so the lines are VERY short. You can hit everything in the park up 2 or 3 times depending on if you stop to watch all the shows and parades. Which by the way, Minnie singing "Santa Baby" was adorable. That's my input!
