    For what?

    There are usually codes around for the onsite resorts (depending on when you want to stay). Tickets for the parks, not so much but check out the Orlando thread for more info. Car hire, there are always codes but a discounted car hire with one company can still be more expensive than other companies. Restaurants (not onsite) there are always coupons.

    I'm not sure there are any around for .co.uk (apart from the free dining and 14 nights ticket for the price of 7), but there are loads available for .com:


    Stay dates: 1/1/10 to 6/3/10. 25%-45% discount with code QNY. Code for room + tickets + regular Dining Plan is QOX.
    NB doesn't work for all resorts and is subject to availability.
    • Save 25% at Disney Value Resorts when you stay 1-4 nights; save 30% when you stay 5 nights or longer
    • Save 30% at Disney Moderate Resorts when you stay 1-4 nights; save 35% when you stay 5 nights or longer

    When and where are you wanting to stay?

    Also 3% on Quidco for WDW.

    There is 56% off Saratoga Springs and Key West Accomodations on the WDW website at the mo, also can be used with free Dining plan and Gift card. 7 nights at OKW was £777 for a studio sleeping 4 when I looked earlier - but this does get you an apartment with washer, drier, kitchen etc... I think.

    Also tickets, 14 days for the price of 7 on WDW website.

    .

    Studios at OKW do not have washer driers. There is a mini kitchen area (basically a fridge, toaster and microwave). They are really just a hotel room to be honest. The one bedrooms are HUGE in comparison and have a full kitchen, washer drier etc.

    But, if you are staying at OKW in a studio you can use washer / dryers for free at the pool areas. You just need detergent.


    Either way, it's a great deal but I assumed you were after something different as you asked for a code and the OKW/SSR deal is freely available to all on .co.uk.

    Your dates would help :)

    Ah, I see, I assumed they were the same as we are staying an apartment.

    We have a timeshare and have been saving our 'weeks' to exchange but I think DVC are struggling as you never used to be able to get them with our exchange company but this changed last year. We are getting the one bedroom apartment for a whopping........ £150 exchange fee per week and we are going for 3 weeks. We are going to stay at different resorts - 2 Disney resorts and one on Universal Side (Maybe Marriots Seaworld). Our maint fees on the t/s are £400 pa so we have certainly got our money's worth to be able to stay somewhere like this - I saw the apartments last night on the Disney website and they are £1500 at 56% discount for a week :eek: there is no way we could afford this otherwise as it would be around 3k per week. :eek: We are so excited :o.

    At the moment we can choose SP or OKW 1 bed apartments but we are holding out for the new AK apartments to see if anything comes available for the time we want. I cannot beleive that these apartments are available for the summer holidays but everything seems to have changed, no cheap virgin deals, Virgins have changed their CC terms and they seem to be struggling to get people out there. The cost of flights is just horrendous compared to what it was this time last year - at least 1k more for us to fly at the same time.

    Just bear in mind that the hotel shuttles go around all the other hotels too so you a) might not get on the bus or b) waste 3 hours travelling around Orlando there and back. We stayed at Radisson Celebration and got the shuttle bus on the first day and it took a very painful hour to get there - and when you have kids desperate to get there and the bus is going the other way to Disney it isn't all that. We got the Lynx bus after that, $12 for a weekly hopper ticket to use all Lynx buses and we was 5 minutes up World Drive and there. On the first day find out where they sell tickets and get a cab and get them. It is much, much easier than relying on the shuttle buses. Just do your reasearch (using the Lynx website) and get a hotel that is near a stop or on the route to Diney Transportation Centre.

    I would suggest staying near Disney the first week and doing that on week 1 and then moving up to the idrive the 2nd weeks and doing everything that end on week 2. It'll make it much easier.

    When I looked yesterday the budget resorts were £500 for a week including free meals - but that is just a room, no mini kitchen at all, I'd certainly consider OKW or Saratoga Springs for the £770 they are offering including your meals - it is an amazing deal for a 4 key resort - it is even cheaper than Carribean Beach which is the next one up from the Budget resorts. Bear in mind that if you are non-drivers you'll also have transfers included on the Magical Express from the Airport too (or you used to, might want to check on this, DVC is charging us $95 for this).

    PS. If you are going in May/June because of Harry Potter World there is a possibility it is not going to be open in May..... I was informed last week that the scaffolding is still up and the sign now says 'Opening Summer 2010'. My update email said it was opening in 'Spring 2010' and was estimated to be end of May but it is nowhere near finished. We are holding off on booking as we desperately want to go for HPW. But..... I am not holding my breath and we have promised the kids they can go in October. Eek!! If it does open that week then it is going to be PACKED so bear this in mind. The Kids finish school in the US for their summer break around the end of May and go back in early August.
