Disneyland Paris/EuroDisney - Questions & Answers

bobbytwo

Hi all,

We have annual passes for disneyland paris at the moment and will be returning there between 29th december 2014 and 2nd jan 2015.

We can sponsor up to 12 people to get a 10% discount off of the purchase of an annual pass (under their Parrainage scheme).

If you are heading to disneyland then and fancy 10% off your annual pass price then send me a pm so that we can arrange it

Many thanks

Feel free to get in touch.

Good morning:D
Balletshoes, I am so sorry, now I have bit the bullet and asked the first question, I have a ton more:eek::eek::o

We are looking at the flash sale for Dec, 305 Euro's, quite cheap really for 5 of us! But now what would happen if... Some friends decide to join us. If they bought an annual pass, how much would another room at the Davy Crockett cost? Surely for another room it wouldn't be just taxes?
We would absolutely love to stay in the Disneyland Hotel, but really can't fathom out a way to make this any cheaper?? It will be boy wonders 4th birthday while there. I did look in to 1 adult and 3 kids then to pay for the pass... Can you tell, I really want annual passes:rotfl:
And then, back in April, we went as a massive group (22 of us:eek:) we stayed in the Davy Crockett then, booking on the 2 days free, Is there a cheaper way of doing this??? We may do it again this year:eek:

Sorry for so many questions, and thank you so much in advance!

no, because the Davy Crockett takes a maximum of 6 guests, so if your friends decided to join you, they'd have to pay for a cabin themselves - so if they book under the flash sale like you, they'll pay the flash sale price, for a cabin of their own.


We would absolutely love to stay in the Disneyland Hotel, but really can't fathom out a way to make this any cheaper?? It will be boy wonders 4th birthday while there. I did look in to 1 adult and 3 kids then to pay for the pass... Can you tell, I really want annual passes:rotfl:

if you want all 5 of you in one room you're looking at paying for a family room in the Disneyland Hotel, Newport Bay Club, or Santa Fe hotels. These are the only hotels which have family rooms, they are few in number, and you don't get any flash sale prices on them, so its usually cheaper to book 2 rooms for a family of 5 if you don't want the DCR.


And then, back in April, we went as a massive group (22 of us:eek:) we stayed in the Davy Crockett then, booking on the 2 days free, Is there a cheaper way of doing this??? We may do it again this year:eek:

It depends - with a mixture of one-adult and free kids, then APs for the rest, it might work out cheaper than all of you on the package. Or you could all get annual passes and stay offsite but nearby, with access to free shuttles etc to the parks (Dream Castle, Kyriad, Magic Circus, Explorers, booked with online travel agents).


Sorry for so many questions, and thank you so much in advance!

hope this helps,

Hi,

Does anyone know the difference between https://www.disneylandparis.com (which seems to charge a £15 booking fee) and http://www.disneyholidays.co.uk ?

Also, I presume the extras (like e.g. shows etc) can be booked later (or even through another agency/site ) ?

Thanks!

you need to be careful here - your second website is an official Disney website, but its not the official DLP one, so yes, you can book extras on both websites, but if for example a better discount deal comes up later for your dates, you won't be able to change to the new deal on the second website without paying a high admin fee (I believe its £50 and no guarantee they'll do it), but you could on the official DLP site, with one phone call and no extra admin fees.

As usual, thanks so much :-) So in essence, the £15 booking fee is a kindof insurance for a more flexible booking ;-)

I did actually consider the latter company as they seem to offer a self-drive package that *might* work out better value then separate tickets ....... however they don't seem to be offering Eurotunnel for August 15 yet (just ferry) so .... shrug.

this is the news following the extraordinary meeting held this morning -

"LONDON (Reuters) - Euro Disney said on Monday it had agreed a 1 billion euro funding deal backed by its largest shareholder, the Walt Disney Co , which includes a share sale and a debt restructuring, to allow it to invest in the business.
Euro Disney, based in an eastern suburb of Paris, is 40 percent owned by parent Walt Disney and 10 percent by the Saudi prince Al-Waleed bin Talal bin Abdulaziz al Saud.
The plan includes a rights issue of 420 million euros open to all shareholders and backed by Walt Disney. The company said the move would improve the cash position of Euro Disney by about 250 million euros.
In addition, about 600 million euros of the group's debt owed to Walt Disney will be converted into equity, while credit lines extended to Euro Disney by its parent will also be consolidated"

so its business as usual to all intents and purposes.
