Disneyland Paris advice please

astep70uk

Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get a reasonable price for Disneyland Paris from 20-24 March 2006.
There will be 2 adults and a 3yr old flying from either Newcastle or Durham Tees Valley.
The cheapest way I can do it is flights from BMI Baby for £101 return and accommodation at the Disney Hotel Cheyenne for £243 including park passes.

So the total for the holiday would be about £350.
Does anyone know if I could get it cheaper than this, or if I can use any vouchers/discount codes to make it cheaper??

Also, what are the prices like out there?

Thanks for any advice

Good choice with the Cheyenne, much nicer then the other cheaper hotel the Santa Fe.

You will have a great time !

That total price seems very good actualy, I can't be much help with discounts but if you have any questions I'd be happy to answer (I'm a shareholder and an annual passport holder)

Received this offer today. Seems to say that you can get an extra 15% OFF if you book direct. Not sure if it is relevant for your holiday but worth a try.

The flights were £101 from https://www.bmibaby.com and the price was quoted to my friend last week for 2 adults and 2 kids sharing a room. In March kids go free and there was 15% off the price. This was from our local branch of Travelcare.

ok one thing or two about Disneyland Paris:

there is a couple of formula one hotels and premiere classe hotels within driving distance so not necessarily need to go to the cheyenne if you go there by car and not fly

if you decide to do transfers from any airports, take the RER, do not use taxis, they are a rip off

when you are there, try using the fastpass methods, unless you want to get there at opening times and run like mad to be the first at the queue. if you plan everything the right way, you can actually do every single attraction in one day.

try to see the shows as they are very good too

avoid the food there! it is very pricey. not exactly MSE. you can go and buy some food from the big Carrefour shopping centre which is just the RER station before the park. and you can eat sandwiches while queuing, never killed anyone!

if you do decide to buy food, be very nice and polite to the staff, like bonjour, s il vous plait... it might not look like a lot but it does make a difference, please keep in mind those people are bored seeing tourists everyday and are sometimes verbally abused. A smile and a positive attitude can go a long way, and they might also give you an extra big serving! I know cos I used to do that when i was working there: nice people were getting double portion, and pissy, rude or abusive people were getting the normal portion.

when asking for directions, please ask the people sweeping the floor and not the other ones. The only times those other staff are walking in the park are for getting to their workplace, or going on a lunchbreak. They are being paid on the clock (and the second) so if you make them late they will lose out. of course, they will always be helpful if you cant find anyone else to ask.

and all in all...

do not forget to have fun!
