I don’t have to book travel insurance on the Disney site do I ? Do I just book my own? And how do u make sure it covers flights and package as being separate is it in the small print ?

Is that Ryanair flight to Beauvais? If so research your transfer options and the costs to make sure you are happy before booking. Its quite far out from Paris.

Oh gosh yes, Beauvais takes ages and costs a bomb. Charles de Gaulle is the one to go for.

My head isn’t screwed on no idea why I said Ryan air 😂😂 air lingus Dublin to CDG. The flights are great times and same price as easy jet roughly. the Ryan air to beauvais is half the price but it seemed way to much faff and hassle when I googled how far out it was.

Sorry, I meant book with whichever airline suits you best, not specifically EasyJet. We use EasyJet for European flights most often as it is the easiest budget airline locally, but may be different for you.

No you can buy insurance from anyone, use a comparison site and shop around for the best deal. I think you need to ensure you have ‘end supply failure’ cover to cover everything if you book things separately. This means if one part of your trip was cancelled, say your flight, and it meant you couldn’t complete the holiday the insurance will pay for the full holiday cancellation cost not just the flight. Most insurances say whether or not this is covered in their summary when booking. I usually find the cheaper option doesn’t but the next cover up does, say they call
them bronze silver etc, then silver is often the one where end supply failure is covered but you need to be sure before booking. If you can’t see it in the summary, ring the company to check before buying and make sure they tell you where it states you are covered in the t&cs (just do you can double check)

Most summaries make it clear if this is covered though so it should be reasonably simple to find once you know what you are looking for 😀

We don’t use a travel agent for Disneyland. Book flights or Eurostar direct then book with Disneyland direct or with WDTC. If we book off site hotels we usually book travel republic.

I booked with Thomas Cook but only because I get discount through my works scheme. It was cheaper for me however note that Thomas Cook book the flights as a package with Disney but Disney buy block allocation with flight company's. This meant when we tried to pick our seats and add baggage etc we were not named with our flight operator's and we couldn't. The allocation of names only happens about 2 weeks before you travel. then you can book seats etc.

We have been to DLP around 12 times and always book direct with them and book travel separately.
We always drive over though.
