When I call do I need the code or can I ask about it on the phone? If I need a code which do I use? I'm currently booked for 6 nights. So is it the 6 nights with 2 free? Right now our tickets and resort for 2 adults and 2 children are 1,238 at AS Movies and for 2 adults and 1 child 1,056. I'm not sure if this will be better or not.

Codes

You use the code when booking. The current codes on Mousesavers are for the Disney Club Members. The site indicates that codes for everyone should come out shortly with a big media push.

Wow. I just sat here looking at the mousesavers site for the rates they listed and I was doing the math. I was waiting for the AP codes for August, but I think after talking to DH we will go with the package. I figured out all the math, even with an AP rate which is typically 40% off the rack rate which we got last aug. and I used the lowest Hopper ticket prices (advance purchase) and I see we will still come out ahead financially by getting the package. We were going to purchase AP's but we can wait until the next time, maybe christmas and we will still have a few extra bucks in our pockets to spend at the parks. I also saw that on mousesavers they lised insurance included with the package, Does anyone know if this is optional, cutting the cost more, or do they just tack it on as mandatory? Just looking to get only what we actually need. I also feel the same as everyone, with these great rates, anyone who was sitting on the fence, will just hop right off of it and go see mickey.:lol: This is well within our budget, glad we put off the easter trip and refused to pay the rack rates.

Booked this AM

We booked through AAA this morning and I had the impression that these packages required insurance. Won't hurt to ask, but I've been hearing that a lot of the packages that Disney has released as of late include trip ins......

You are right about the great deal. I was thinking about getting an AP for the discount as well and these rates beat the heck out of the AP rates. Plus they include the tickets! Really excited and since we are going in late Sept. I am hoping all the new attractions and the new fireworks at MK will be up and running. Does anyone know if they run Spectromagic and Fireworks at MK any day other than Saturday in the fall. We are going on Sept 27 (SAT) and leaving on Oct 4 (SAT) and I really want to see the MK at its best at night.

I guess everyone who booked so far must be Disney Club members because I don't see that it's open to the public yet. Can someone tell me if we're staying 6 nights does that mean the code for 6 nights with 2 included or 4 nights with 2 included. I'm confused about that.

My take on it was pay for four days, get 2 free. I heard that a similar offer would be open to the public on the 8th. Im going in September for 8 nights and I went to the disney site and priced out a package for 5 nights (moderate room & tickets). It came out to $1820 (2 kids under 10 and 2 adults) When I got my quote for the Fairytale package for 8 nights it was $1810. Both were without insurance.

What I was trying to figure out is if 5 nights is 1820 and the fairytale package is 3 free days if you stay 8...plus you get the $50 discount for disney membership, how does it come up to 1810? Shouldnt it come up to 1820 minus 50 bucks?

Either way its a great deal, i just cant figure out the math

I just changed my reservations this morning using the new codes/package.

I already had a room only reservation for Oct 20-27. I added the 7 night (3 free) with Silver today. The whole cost will be little bit under $3600. This is for AKL Concierge. Also, with the standard package it would have cost about $2500.

This is a little bit (about $100) less than what I paid last year for the same timeframe using last years codes. They worked out to be about 41%, so this new deal is better, or about the same. I say that because you get an additional $75 off using the DC card with the Silver.

I asked the Disney rep about the codes open to the public as well because we have friends coming down for 5 nights at the same time and they are waiting on codes like I was. She said that they will be available May 8th, and be the same except for the additional $50/$75 given to DC card holders.

I also had to renew my DC card 'cos it ran out 8/03. So that cost me another $9, but to save $75 it was worth it.

To answer you last question, I belive you have it right. MouseSavers did have a chart up, but its not their anymore on booked days/free days. I think you must pay for 4 days, and you get free days added to that.

So call on May 8th to get you reservation in. The rep told me they've been getting many many calls today. So call as soon as you can.

Have fun!

Could it be the taxes?

I booked yesterday in the Value Resorts All-Star Sports Resort using the code for the 4 day/get 3 days free w/o insurance for $1434. We weren't going to go this year after going the last 2 years but when I saw this deal, couldn't refuse it. We are going in August. Last year we stayed at Carribbean Beach in June and my kids didn't like it as much as All Stars so we are headed back there. Can't wait. I imagine when the code is opened to the general public tomorrow that it will sell out fast and the parks will be really packed this summer. What a great price. Now if I could only pay for 4 days of food and get 3 free :lol:
