Mobile When's the best time to book a package for Oct 2018?

Hi,

Starting to plan our Oct 2018 holiday and hope to book a package, staying off site on International Drive for 2 adults, 2 children in accommodation with 2 bedrooms. Checked Thomas Cook and Virgin so far but prices seem really high - just under £5000 for flights, hotel and car. 2 years ago we paid £3400 for accommodation with 1 bedroom. Any tips for how to get it cheaper?

Int drive was a bit dearer.

I'm hoping prices come down a bit! Suspect booking DIY might be cheaper but I'm too impatient and want to book!

an extra bedroom will bump the price up compared to what you paid before with one bedroom only.

I've booked for September 2018 through Thomas cook staying at AoA with premium seats and upgraded car and haven't paid anywhere near that! It came up at nearly £5000 online but then I went to the store and negotiated a large discount we've got it for just over £3500

That's more like it! How many is that for? I'll be going into the store this week then! Assumed the best prices would be online!

Though you looking off site, at the end of April Disney have in the past offered their free dining offer, which can offset tyhe cost of staying onsite some what, so its worth looking at that.

that's for 2 adults and 2 children. It's always better to go to store as managers have a lot of discretion about discount
