Discount codes must be thought of as a clearance sale if you want the discount, you have to be willing to take what s left over! It s important to be flexible with both dates and hotels, and to be persistent in calling back periodically to see if anything has opened up.
All of the discounted hotel rates listed napa valley tandem bicycle tours below are subject to availability and are per night, usually for double occupancy, napa valley tandem bicycle tours unless otherwise noted. An extra charge may apply for additional adults in the room. Kids under 18 years of age are free of charge on a room only reservation.
Looking for the best deal for your stay at a Disney resort hotel? napa valley tandem bicycle tours Often your most economical option is to book a room only reservation at the resort of your choice (ideally napa valley tandem bicycle tours with one of the discounts listed on this page) and buy the other components of your vacation (i.e. tickets and meals ) separately.
Buying a vacation package means you must purchase both your hotel room AND tickets napa valley tandem bicycle tours for each person in the party directly from Disney , with those components napa valley tandem bicycle tours (and optionally, a dining plan) priced and sold together as a package. napa valley tandem bicycle tours Normal vacation packages are NOT discounted ; prices are consistent with paying full price for the separate components. However, various special offers such as free dining apply only to vacation packages. Click here to see any current package offers, but read the information below first so that you understand the rules that apply to packages.
napa valley tandem bicycle tours To complicate matters, you can convert some (perhaps most) room-only discount code deals into a package by purchasing tickets and optionally a dining plan. However, once your booking is converted to a package, it is subject to the package rules . The room-only rules are much better than the package rules. Additionally, for most people it is not worthwhile napa valley tandem bicycle tours to make a room-only offer into a package because you re adding full-price tickets, when you could purchase them cheaper through an outside company such as Undercover Tourist . Also, for the average family the Dining Plans are not a particularly good deal.
Room only reservations offer better terms for cancellation and payment dates than vacation packages booked through the Walt Disney Travel Company (WDTC). When booking a room only reservation, you are subject to very few restrictions:
Beware Disney s phone agents may try to sell you a basic package when you want to book a room only reservation. A basic package is just a room and some trinkets (a few coupons and a luggage tag per person). It is subject to the more stringent vacation package rules ( see below ).
You can change napa valley tandem bicycle tours or cancel your reservation without napa valley tandem bicycle tours penalty up until 45 days in advance. If you cancel 44 days or less in advance, there is a cancellation fee of $200. However, starting with 2014 packages, cancellations made 44 days to 2 days prior to arrival have a cancellation fee of $200 per package, but if reservations are cancelled 1 day prior to arrival through scheduled day of arrival, the full package price is non-refundable. You ll also lose any nonrefundable elements, such as travel insurance and airfare see below. No-shows will not receive napa valley tandem bicycle tours a refund.
After you ve made final payment, any changes that result in a lower rate , such as applying napa valley tandem bicycle tours a discount code, reducing number of days and/or changing to a lower-priced resort, are subject to a $50 change fee and a $15 processing fee.
Beware WDTC usually adds nonrefundable travel insurance to your package by default. If you don t want it, tell them while you are making the reservation. Once you hang up, it s too late. You can add the insurance later if you wish, up until your final payment is due. You can also buy travel insurance directly and usually save some money that way.
Airfare added to your reservation is also nonrefundable. It s hardly ever a good deal, either. I strongly advise booking airfare separately. Visit the Airfares page for hints on how to save on airfare!
Be polite but persistent when calling the Disney Reservations Center. Some of the agents answering the phone know more than others, and some will try harder napa valley tandem bicycle tours than others to get you the best deal. If the first agent you speak with isn t helpful, say thanks, end the call and try again. With hundreds of agents at the call center, it s unlikely napa valley tandem bicycle tours you ll get the same agent twice in a row.
Keep calling napa valley tandem bicycle tours back periodically if your dates are not immediately available at the discounted rate , because people change and cancel reservations all the time. Something is quite likely to open up eventually.
If you work with an agent at the reservations center who is especially napa valley tandem bicycle tours helpful or friendly, get his or her name and take two minutes to send an email complimenting the agent s work (if the link doesn t work, go to disneyworld.com and click on contact us at the bottom of the page).
Planning your Walt Disney World vacation should not leave you stressed out. However, that can easily happen, particularly for first-timers. If you do all of your own planning and booking, be aware that there is a huge amount of information to gather. If you are becoming frustrated (or you re just not a planner), consider using a Disney Specialist travel agent . It costs you absolutely nothing and saves you tons of time and effort!
Disney has four seasons each year. Value Season is the least expensive and least crowded time, followed by Regular Season, Summer Season, Fall Season, Peak Season and Holiday Season . So the most basic way to save money on Disney s resort hotels is simply to book in the off-season.
Each night of your stay will be priced separately, and you will be charged the applicable rate for that night. So for example, if the last date of Value Season is December 18 and you check in on that date, only that one night will be at the Value Season rates. December 19 and later will be charged at the higher Holiday Season rates. Plus, if some nights of your stay are weekend nights or part of a pre-designated holiday period, you ll be charged the higher rate for those.
Disney periodically offers room-only discounts to the general public. They typically become available napa valley tandem bicycle tours 2-6 months in advance and are most often offered during the off-season, with major holidays, mid-summer and holiday weekends blacked out (excluded) from the offer. When such offers are released, I list them below.

Wilderness campsites, 3-bedroom villas and Little Mermaid rooms at Art of Animation Resort are not included in this offer. As with all Disney napa valley tandem bicycle tours promotional discounts, some resorts, room types and date combinations will not be available. It s important to be flexible if you want to book a discounted package.
To reserve a room with the Late Summer napa valley tandem bicycle tours Savings discount , call the Disney Reservations Center at (407) W-DISNEY or contact a  travel agent  who specializes in Disney travel, and request booking code DGA .
When discounted room-only rates are offered to the general public, the same rates that are offered through napa valley tandem bicycle tours other travel agencies (and directly by Disney) are usually also available online through Expedia . The discounted rates are listed as promotional rates or are given special names such as Magical Fall Rates.
Generally speaking you re better off to book through a Disney Specialist travel agent , because Expedia seldom offers a deal that other travel agencies can t duplicate, and has rules and requirements that can be confusing. Be sure to read ALL the small print as you make your reservation (which may require you to click on a link that says terms and conditions or something similar) so that you are clear on any cancellation and change fees.

Disney sometimes sends out postcards and emails that offer deeply discounted Walt Disney World resort rates to the recipients. I can t publish those discounts, because Disney uses a PIN (Personal Identification Number) system so that only the recipient can use the code. (When you call in with your PIN, they match your name and address to it. You can t share the PIN with anyone else.)
How do you get on the lists for these special PIN-coded postcards and emails? No one knows exactly, and believe napa valley tandem bicycle tours me, I ve done a lot of research on it over the last 10+ years. It appears that Disney s marketing department uses a variety of lists at different times
