flights and hotel booked seperate

[simon71]

This maybe a silly question but can you book flights and hotel seperate and still get the offers from the disney website...i.e - the magic express? It appears alot cheaper than booking them as a package.

Yes. You need to add your flight info for DME. Many say it's cheaper to book the flight on your own than through Disney. You can always add different offers as they come along for savings on your room,dining or tickets.

Flights are definitely not required through Disney for offers - if they were, all the people that drive down would be excluded! Like the prior poster said - just call to add magical express.

I never book my flight with Disney. I don't even get the package. I just book room only then add on tickets if needed. But I usually get an annual pass so all I do is book my room.

Absolutely!!!! Be sure to call either Disney or your travel agent, if you booked through one to add your flight info for the Magical Express but other than that, sure!!! Marie

We never book our flights and resort package together. It is a lot cheaper getting the flights separate so you can wait as long as you like for a good price. Once you have your flight info, you can just give it to your travel agent (if you have one) or call Disney!

I booked flights and the Package for my trip in July. For some reason it came to 250 round trip per person on Disney instead of 350 per person on American's site. I think this was the only time I booked flights with Disney. Other than that I booked separately and just called them to add the information.

I've just booked my flights (Just over £700 for 2 adults) then phoned up Disney to book my hotel, they asked for my flight details and sorted DME very quick and efficient.

Without trying to sound to silly and you probably know this but if you are booking your flights separate, make for you fly into Orlando International to get the free transfers. I found that flying into Sanford was cheaper but obviously no DME.
