  • im really confused, went to book disney on short-breaks.com as it originally came up the cheapest and now i'm looking on the eurostar website as people on here have said its good value.
    found one thats the same dates as when i'm going, in the same hotel (cheyenne) for about £50 cheaper.
    only problem is when you look at the packages originally they say as long as its a disney hotel the park tickets are included but then when you go to continue booking it asks if you want to add park tickets.

    could it be that comes up as standard on any disney related search or do i then have to pay extra for the park tickets (even though the original page on the website says otherwise)

    i just want a cheap deal for me and my boyfriend cause were penniless students haha :D

    Not sure about booking through eurostar, but know that expedia do "packages" that dont always include the park tickets and i have a feeling that, eurostar do bookings that only include the hotel and eurostar and not tickets too, so i would definatley make sure that the price you are paying does include the tickets are they are quite expensive.

    Pretty much anywhere else (disney direct, travel agents etc) do include the park tickets in their package prices.
  • okay spent 45 minutes waiting on the phone to eurostar to see what they can do. (thank got to saynoto0780)
    basically as long as when you book you press that you want the hotel with park tickets (£20 more expensive than without) you get them.

    the next page was just generic as it comes up with every order.
    go check out their website price wise as its £150pp cheaper than the official disney site!
  • Hi...hope someone can help taking three kids aged 5,7 and 8 to Eurodisney end of July....2 adults.

    I think disney still have a 40% offer on at the moment (but not sure if your find anything for those dates.)

    I think ive only ever seen the kids stay and play for free deals for the under 7s.

    The time you are going is pretty much peak time for disney, so to be honest im not too sure you will get much of a deal, as i went last year in very early July and it was way more expensive than in June or September.

    Hi Im booked to go at the end of July. We have 2 adults and 3 children so unfortunately had to book 2 rooms at Sequioa Lodge, we did look at the Newport hotel but it worked out more expensive.
    Right...I managed to get the full 40% discount directly from DLP. We went to a travel agents first but they told us due to comission they could only offer 30% so she recommened doing it direct. Did this and booked our flights with easy jet as they were £300 cheaper than Air France. HTH

    Hi All, sorry if this has already been asked but this thread is so long now that it would take me two days to get through it! We're wanting to stay at the Sequioa lodge for 4 nights in early December, flying over form Manchester airport and have been quoted £1020.00 from TravelEmpire. Firstly does this seem like a reasonable quote, it includes flights, taxes, transfers, hotel, breakfast and park tickets for each day (for two adults and a two year old)?. Secondly has anyone booked through TravelEmpire? were they ok? They sales rep was very helpful on the phone.

    To be honest we could probably put all the elements together slightly cheaper but I'm really just wanting a hassle and stress-free 'treat' that is all arranged for us (yes, I know I'm being lazy but we've had a very stressful and at times horrible year and I just want to feel that our holiday is something I don't have to worry about!)

    So all opinions greatfully received,

    Thanks in advance,

    Booking your hotel (including park tickets, and breakfast each day) direct with Disney would be a total of £474. What kind of transfer do you have included in your package? If its the coach, that would cost 18 euros each way per adult if you did it separately.

    So the only thing left is your flights from Manchester to CDG - I think you could probably get those for a fair bit cheaper than £480 (I fly from East Mids or Luton to CDG, and never pay more than £140 total return for 2 paying passengers).

    I really think, by doing it yourself, you could shave about £300 off the price you've been quoted on your package.

    Thanks for your answer Balletshoes,
    When I looked at the hotel on the DLP website it quoted me about 580 for the 4 nights? Can you let me know which site did you used please so I can have a squiz (might be cos we're looking at going Fri-Tues not midweek?)

    Also, have looked at Expedia and the flights for us and the littly came out at £294.00. Unfortunately even though he will only just be two when we go he needs his own seat so I think that working it all out (not including transfers) it will cost roughly £880.00 to DIY it. So if you add on the 72 euros (apx £60.00) for the transfers it would be £80.00 more expensive for the package.

    Blimey, it's all getting a bit mathmatical!

    The other thing that's confusing me a bit is..when you get your park tickets included with the Disney room, is it just for DLP and you have to pay extra for the Disney Studios?

    Thanks,

    Jess x
