Just a note to anyone wanting to book direct make sure you compare both sites.

I was pricing up for our New Year trip and we really wanted to stay at Boardwalk Inn. I priced on disney.co.uk but couldn't figure out how to price for concierge so went to the .com site and managed to get concierge for £100 cheaper than the uk site quote. I love the exchange rate atm!

DH pointed out we could have saved even more if we had just stayed in a regular room, but after a 2 night taster of concierge level last year I was delighted to be going back for a whole week. If nothing else it means I don't have to madly hunt down a phone at 12 noon to get those busy day ADRs sorted out :grin:

Have a wonderful time, I loved the Boardwalk concierge - amazing :)

My trip isn't until next May so Val has booked the GF concierge for me through Disney UK, the price was comparable to Disney US, but I was worried about the exchange rate taking a nose dive for my 2009 trip and then I'd end up paying more, so we've stuck with Disney UK, but if it was a trip this year I'd definitely go with Disney US.

Congratulations. Also, with Disney US you can try to get any discount codes that are released nearer the time applied to your booking so even better value.
