YAY - Booked Discovery Cove

[peagreen]

Used the freephone number and spoke to a LOVELY lady, who helped me book 4 Ultimate tickets with Dolphin Swim for May 09 :spin: :pgig: :spin:.

10% early booking discount so $1,257.12.

Now looking at the Disney tickets, do I get Ultimate, or get Premium or MYW and opt for non-expiration.

Also trying to decide whether to book Cirque du Soleil before we go or whilst out there. May wait until park hours for May are out - that way can be a bit more definate with the itinerary and work out the best evening to go - what do you think?

Thanks :grin:

It is absolutely fabulous - you will have a fantastic day. :spin::spin:

You don't need to book Cirque yet - I booked about 5 weeks ago for the end of July and there were loads of good seats left. You could keep checking what's available via the Disney website if you're worried.

Thanks for that, think I will definately leave it until the park hours are out and I have a better idea of what we are doing day to day.

Hi :)
I booked direct with Discovery Cove on 00800 33441818.

I was quoted $1,529.40 and asked if that included the 10% early booking discount, it didn't so she recalculated.

The girl at the other end was really helpful, and told me about the parking packages, although not cost effective for us. You are also able to book things like Dine with Shamu on that number.

However, someone's posted a code "TNC08" which is for 15% (although I don't know if this just relates to 2008 days, might be worth a try for 2009?).

Hope that helps. :grin:

I'm sure - thanks :grin:

DC is amazing. You will love it!!!

Thanks :grin:

I'm more excited than my 6 year old I think :spin: :spin:, but then 302 days is a lifetime at that age (I'm at the other end where life is passing by in a blur :( ;))

Can i ask how many people that was for, that seems like a good price, we've booked our with Attraction tickets direct, although took advantage of paying just the 20% deposit for now and rest in feb - we go in april next year:)

[sazperkins]

Reggy - we're going next Easter too. We booked with Orlando Ticket Deals and paid the 20% deposit - balance due on 5th Feb 09. There are 6 of us going and we're paying £189 per person.

We're booked in for 4th April - and it can't come quickly enough!:spin:

[reggy81]

Thats better than us, were paying £195 per person!:(

[griffl02]

I am sure you will have a fantastic time, we went last October it was fantastic, we booked a Cabana when we got there and well worth the extra money.

The $1,257.12 was for 4 people, so just over $314 each - will not know the exchange rate and exactly how much I paid until the credit card arrives in a couple of weeks!:)

Do you mind? How much is a Cabana? Are you able to choose which one you get, and how much use did you get from it? (Is there any useful info you have on them?)

We are 3 adults and a 7 year old, do you think it would be a wise investment or are there other areas of shade?

Thanks
:grin:

[GentleGiant]

sadly all tickets had gone for this summer, when I looked :(

[flashh]

Hi,

I also booked by phoning the freephone number I have booked for a total of 14 peolple and was surprised that they only asked for a deposit with the balance to be paid 6 weeked before we go.

I was fully expecting to pay it all upfront so it was a bit of a bonus leaving the rest in the savings account fo another 8 months!!

OK, so the credit card statement has just arrived this morning. :(

With the exchange rate on the day, we ended up paying £164.49 per ticket, not bad, and I'm pleased with that price, especially as it's the Ultimate and we have the swim and 3 other parks included. :grin:
