    I booked the tickets a fortnight ago, printed them at home and used them last week. I think it may be your dates being so far in the future....maybe.

    We have now booked with the travel agent it was £117 for the 3 adults (you mentioned booking an adult for a child because of the meal sizes) if we used your offer it was 39 E each which worked out at 117E so not a massive saving and it is all booked now

    Thank you so much for your help tho :T:Tx x x x

    Have also booked for cafe mickey because all my little one wants when we go to disney is a big hug off mickey so this is an early birthday pressie. We were going to tell them it was his birthday (not for 6 weeks after we come back) but how much do you want a bet he'll drop us in it :rotfl:

    Am getting really excited now.:T:T

    Many thanks for replying Wendyphant and Balletshoes :),

    I think that because i've never taken my DD out of the country (except to Wales!) and because I suffer from a inner ear problem that leaves me very dizzy, im getting a bit panicy :o

    My thinking about the half board option was just not having to worry about food money so much as we would use them for the buffet meals and to not get too stressed over the prices of the meals....my hair actually went like :eek: when I looked at the menu prices for EuroDisney lol.

    I've never used Euros before so am a bit worried about the spending money as I have no credit card (don't want another one ever again!) so they only money i will have is what i can take...

    Any single parents taken their child/ren to Disney got any tips for luggage, the train journey, meeting the characters etc I would love to hear your stories and tips for surviving the trip!

    Thanks Steph

    Hi, I'm really struggling to book the 50% off deal. We have never been to Disneyland Paris and have no idea how to book the trip :-(. Any help will be really appreciated.

    We want to travel sometime in August for 2 nights, travelling from Manchester. I was also wondering once we arrive at the station in Paris how do we get to the hotel do we book taxis/bus etc ourselves or is there anyway that all of the transport can be prebooked?? Ideally I want the hotel and the station to be close to the park. I'm sorry if the questions sound stupid I have never booked a trip online!

    Thanks

    Hi,

    I am looking at booking a trip to disney on 5th - 7th November. I have seen that the fireworks display is on 5th, but as we wont be getting there 'till late afternoon, we are not looking at getting a park pass for that day. I was wondering if it is still possible to go and view the fireworks display, or is a park pass required to be there?

    Also, are there any tips for getting park passes at a cheaper rate?

    Thanks

    the fireworks on the 5th November are over the lake, not in the park, so you don't need a park ticket at all for that.

    hi Sara, how are you travelling to Paris? Flying, Eurostar? It depends how you travel, as to which station you need to get from to Disneyland (the Eurostar for example arrives right at the gates of the parks).

    Thanks, I was looking at both Eurostar and flying, going by plane works out really expensive but I am concerned that either we'd get lost or miss one of the connections if travelling by Eurostar!! (I also worry about things going wrong!)

    We'd be travelling from Manchester for two nights, two adults and two children hoping that we can also book meals as looking through the thread it appears that food will be really expensive!

    Ideally I'm looking to spend no more that £1100 and as its the first time we'd be travelling want it to be hassle free. thankyou so much for all your help.

    I've tried booking the 28th of August for Santa fe however it comes up as £426 for two nights, not sure what I've done wrong but this is the lowest price I've found.
