    no, often expedia sell the Disney hotels plus park tickets, you just have to look at all the room descriptions they provide.

    Ok i have found a deal for £400 for disneyland, and I have found cheap flights which brings the price to an affordable amount!!

    But I have never booked flights before and I'm unsure about if you have to pay any extras on top of this? airport taxs and stuff!

    if you do a dummy booking you'll see exactly how much your flights will cost you, including taxes etc

    Its been yrs since i went abroad and it was a package last time so fairly straight forward.

    Also is there an easy way from the airport to Disneyland? and how far is it?

    the airport is about 40 minutes drive from Disneyland, and there are 3 main ways of getting there and back - theres the VEA coach, theres the high speed TGV train, and there are private shuttles. If there are only 2 of you, and the VEA coach or TGV train are running at the time you arrive at the airport, either of these would be your best option, as otherwise its expensive for just 2 of you taking a private transfer.

    you can find the timetable for VEA coach on the VEA website, and the TGV times and fares etc on Rail Europe or SNCF.

    Thanks all

    hope this helps,

    The only problem is the airport is an hour and a half to get to and then theres all the waiting around, my partner ideally wants to go on the eurostar which is £100 more expensive but it stops right on our doorstep pretty much!"! Ekkk, i just find it hard paying more for a couple days away then i do for a whole weeks holiday and then some, i know DLP is a great experience (for the kids at least :P) but still!

    Thanks all

    Just to say offset the cost of VEA Bus/TGV or whatever transfers against the fact that the Eurostar can take you straight into DLP! Yes it is expensive compared to other holidays but the magic is worth it!

    No it isn't. Click on the link (in bold blue) under the couple of options they give you, that says 'show all rooms' and you'll get a choice of rooms with tickets and without tickets. The rooms with tickets are currently at a reduced rate.

    I bought mine from Expedia and got £90 cashback - and it included park tickets and, at that time, the free dining option that was available too.

    For ease and less hassle,transfers etc ,if it's only an extra £100 to go via Eurostar,I would do it
  • Hi

    Sorry if this has been answered before but a quick thread search didn't reveal the answer. Does Expedia have a set release date for the Disney hotels? I was looking to book Sequoia Lodge for late April and whilst I can get a price via the Disney system, Expedia doesn't appear to show availability for any of the Disney run hotels.

    Thanks for your help.
  • Hello all and Happy 2011 :j

    since this is the last year that our oldest will be eligible for the under 12 go free we, and that he might not enjoy it as much once he is hitting his teenage years, we decided to go to Disneyland Paris at the end of January.

    We are planning to book the Hotel and Tickets on DP webiste and Ferry separately. However I am worried about cancellations due to bad weather.

    My question is:
    What happen if the Ferry is cancelled and we cant get to DP?
    How do I ensure that we get money back or can rebook?

    We are worried that with our luck we might get more snow and loose all the money we pay for the accomodation+ tickets + travel...

    Thanks :)
