Yes, I just checked, they were definately not there yesterday and Friday as I have been waiting for the dates to open so I could buy tickets. In fact for 29/30/31 May there is not a single seat available on the train. leaving on the Saturday is £309 each way standard class. Is this an omen I wonder..... There is a French Bank Holiday on the Thursday so am going to be gone by Wednesday.

If you are then I'd also check on Expedia for prices, which are usually the same as DLP website - however, you get 12% quidco cashback on hotels booked on Expedia so you'get over £200 cashback. Quite a saving!!

hiya thaks again, i do have a quidco account so would save abit plus if i book it early enough the money would be through before we go i guess

thanks for your help ill keep checking all the sites as often as i can because you never know when they will be out.
still hoping there will be a good deal around when we book it, when does the current offer end?
thanks again

They are offering up to 20% off at the moment so I'd have a look at those, the break we want has gone down by £300 since last week. Going to book tonight before we lose the flights. Never been on a Sunday before, hope it is not too busy.

Been busy trying to sell stuff on eBay to get the money to go - will give me a reason the clear the clutter really. Currently have £160 towards it so well chuffed and I've only listed a few bits. I got £15 for some lego the kids don't play with anymore. One mans junk and all that. I've got A LOT more to get listed though.

I'd love to stay at the Disneyland Hotel but just cannot find it in me to justify the amount just for having a shower and sleeping at night - we are never there otherwise. We stayed ar HNY last time, it was near Xmas and I think I was expecting glitz and glamour and something special for the price we paid. I just felt.... disappointed and deflated. Hotel Santa Fe this time just for the Cars theme. I am worried about the budget hotel but all we do is sleep there - and my kids will be involved in the breakfast scrum so trying not to think too much about it.

back from our Disney trip using the SUN tickets deal

no problems using the tickets when not using the ferry

( i was worrying a tad lol !)

had a good time but prob won't go in feb again
we love halloween season and the decs / theming,so this time it felt a bit "flat" and bare IYSWIM

no characters wandering around ,and quite a lot of refurbs etc going on,fences up etc and even on the castle too
but i guess they have to do it sometime!

still had a fab time though and especially as we only paid £29.50 for 2 ad 2 ch for day tickets,and should have been approx £200 for one day hoppers!!

Hope they do it again

another fab stay@ The Adagio too

Hi Rachie,

Can I ask what your travel arrangements were ?

We are going on the Sun offer in 3 weeks (£17.50 for 2 adults and 2 kids). Currently down to be on the 4AM ferry out and the 8PM ferry back. It will be the kids' first time and we are keen for them not to miss the parades but that might be cutting it fine re ferry back.

What did you do ?

drjb75

we took my little brother last feb and went on the ferry, we stayed at sequia lodge and thought it was lovely. we also found that there wasnt many characters around the park during feb but did manage to aviod any works being carried out.
this time we want to go to the disney hotel because its the only holiday that my mum will have out of this country and it will be amazing for her to see my brother having so much fun, plus my sister is comming along aswell and my niece is only gonna be 2 so that will also make it special.
if we cant afford it at the time we will book a different hotel but im trying to save to stay there.
im hoping that end of march will be better weather then middle of feb so if anyone is going at the end of march id like to know wot the weather was like.
thanks

Evening all

We did disney in september and you were all so helpful so am hoping you can help me as i try to convince oh that we NEED to go again. I am hoping to catch the chrismas decs. The last dat available at the moment is 7th November if we go for 3 nights will the christmas season start by then? There is £175 off at the mo do you think there will be any better offers. There are 2 families going this time one with 2 girls under 6 and a baba who is yet to arrive and me oh and 4yr old. Thinking of SL or NB

Yes, if you pick 7th November as your first night for 3 nights, you will see Christmas season begin at DLP .

Out of those 2, at Christmas season, I'd definitely go for the Sequoia Lodge, it has a fabulous wintery feel about it.
Even though the offers haven't been fantastic, they have been very regular so far this year (ie not going longer than about a week between old offers ending and new ones beginning).

we booked our own travel... Eurotunnel using tesco deals

its approx 3 hours drive from Disney back up to Calais

it will be a really tiring day for you all!

no way we could have done that,as we have a 4 hour drive toget to the tunnel / ferry !
hence why we booked the tunnel and 2 nights stay in a hotel

as we need 2 rooms and it was half term,the cheapest package with Disney was triple+ what we paid!! :eek:
