How much extra did you pay for the half board if you don't mind me asking?

We paid £114 for all five of us for 4 days which i don't think is that bad especially when a guy from works daughter is 'Jasmine' and goes regularly to visit her and warned us that eating there is very expensive and sandwiches can be around £8-10, he told us to take packed lunches but don't think it'd be v. practical being in a hotel and having no car to go shopping;) so decided to go half board save the hassle and less spending money am just about to book the bus thing to get us from the airport to the park think its £94ish return for all of us was also advised this is the cheapest and best way to get there if anyone can confirm or deny this please do

I stayed in Santa Fe in Feb, we arrived early evening and only breakfast slots available were 10am. We wanted to take advantage of extra magic hours so took the risk of going to breakfast at 7 anyway, and the (kind) lady didn't even look at the time on the passes, so bear in mind the breakfast time slots aren't necessarily the law.

Probably a taxi is cheaper for that many people.
Cheaper still is get a local bus to Meaux and then another bus to Disneyland but that'll take 2 hours.

Hi there

I know there is probably an answer staring me right in the face, but is there anyone who can help.

I am looking to book my family trip to DLP and was wondering how it works through the cashback sites. I noticed that some say 6.5% on packages, does anyone know what they class as a package? We only need hotel room and tickets, flying using miles.

thanks for your help

This is what I still need to sort out but unsure what's best. Is the RER & TGV the same thing? Does it go straight from CDG airport to Disney? How much is it?

How many of you are there? A taxi from the airport cost us 76 euros for 4 of us.
The RER TGV are slightly different, but you don't need to worry about that,one is the national line, the other is the paris one. ( Like british rail and the london underground!) I used this site to book my tickets.

We went from hotel to airport rather than the other way round as we flew in late at night and had to get a taxi, but it's very easy.

When you say a taxi will be cheaper for that many people, i did try googling it but it said a vehicle for 5 was 184 euros whereas the bus transfers are 120 euros, as i've never ever been to france were the internet firms expensive or is this about right? also would it be worth paying the extra to go by taxi, do we gain anything? i'd like the easiest way possible really if it only works out slightly dearer, especially with the luggage, 3 kids, the stroller and a husband to drag along

I have caught the bus in the past, however on the last two visits to Disneyland we have been approached on the way to the bus by taxi touts, who have quoted us the same price as the bus.
The taxis have been excellent, much quicker than the bus and the drivers really friendly and courteous, which at charles de gaulle i found a real suprise given that most other people working in the airport are generally either just surly or downright rude.
We arranged a return journey with the driver who rang us on our mobile to let us know he was going to be 5 mins late on picking us up. Just be very clear about the price you pay up front and you should have no problems.

If you read back a bit you'll find a lot of user here and on the https://www.disboards.com have used http://www.rstransports.com/ and been very happy with them. Its cheaper to book shared transport and most have found that they haven't shared the transport with anyone.

There's 8 of us going, 4 adults & 4 kids 16, 15, 12, 7.

Might be cheaper to book the mini bus then.
