    Thanks for confirming :-)

    Just so we know, a room with a Terrace is an upgrade option or is it pot luck on arrival ? Hard to tell on the website

    its an upgrade option - I don't really know why though, it doesn't give you a view or anything like that.

    Sorry to be a pain, how do I get APs in advance?

    loads of ways - supertrips is good if you have kids under 12 to buy for, so I'd look there first.
    if, among your group, you have 5 of you all immediate family, you get a family discount of 20% at the park gates when buying exactly 5 APs for that immediate family group.

    We have 3 sets of surnames among 7 so probably cheaper buying in advance. Thank you

    Hi all,

    Just looking for some advice please. It's a few years since we've been and this thread made for us having a great trip. Sadly now tied to going in school holidays, and also due to dh work we can only go between October and March so basically just wondering when you think would be the best/cheapest time to go. I was thinking to wait to book in the hope that there is a flash sale? Or am I dreaming? :D
    TIA

    Jan - March is about as cheap as it gets anyway. Isn't there a 2 nights free offer on at the moment?

    If you,re tied to October to march AND school holidays then your best option is going to be February half term. You won't get a flash sale for school holidays, so u need to look at a good discount offer (2 nights free when u book 4, under 12s free, 35% off etc). Don't check in on a Friday or Saturday as those are the most expensive.

    Thanks for the helpful info guys.

    For Feb 16 - 20 at Santa Fe it's coming out at £763.44 for 2 adults and 2 kids, 2 nights and 2 days free, free hotel/park for kids, I'm thinking thats a pretty good price?

    expedia is cheaper for that exact same package - £597 instead of £763 :).
    And if you can check in on Friday 12th Feb instead, that same package comes down to £443. Plus there are often 10% off codes kicking around for Expedia, or similar cashback amounts.

    Hi All

    I am after some help regarding making a booking on the offical disneylandparis website.

    due to the Euro/GBP rate, i have been told i can book the trip in Euros and log in as if i am from France. I've checked this with Disneylandparis guys and they have said its fine.

    However everytime i try to pay for it in Euros i get an error message on the site (along the lines of we have been unable to authorise your payment). Now its not my bank as they have not received any requests for authorisation, and i've also tried 2 other credit cards all with the same error.

    I have now tried everything i can think of including different browsers, credit cards, even CAPS lock.

    Disnelyland Paris guys think i've done it all correct and can't see what the problem is, so they recommend booking it over the phone - however that will mean losing out on a big 5% cashback via topcashback.

    As its not my bank - i am assuming its something to do with trying to book via the French site which it doesn't like.

    Has anyone else had these same difficulties?
