I have a dilemma as usually I have the Disney offer confirmed before I book flights with Tui. This year the Tui flights are due out tomorrow but Disney haven’t confirmed free DDP so I don’t know whether to book the flights anyway and hope for the best, or whether to hang fire on booking anything till I know for sure that free DDP is 100%
If I wait on the flights I’ll miss out on the best pricing though as I’ve never seen our flight price decrease from booking on release day...what to do, what to do...

We booked a TUI flight last September and haven't seen the price change a penny since. Even though I know I should never look.

I have considered cancelling every time that appalling tv advert comes on with the warbling woman destroying a good song.

My general point of view is that free dining offer will stop or be significantly scaled back sometime between now and galaxies edge the question is when.
I think you are right that they will gradually reduce it. I don’t think it would create any difference to footfall to be honest. Numbers are increasing year on year and the UK make up a tiny percentage.

It's true when Disney say it ... until then it's speculation.
If the TC agents had been told anything definitive then they'd be saying the same time scale not one saying "this week" another saying "within the month".

Bit harsh but I know what you mean

It was voted worst advert of the last 12 months. Just soooo smug. the ginger bearded bloke who's in most scenes. He's definitely been to drama school where they tell you to smile (grimace) constantly. I should start a separate thread on this just to vent.

I know life's too short... blah blah... but it's on every 3 seconds.

Nothing ever comes close to the infuriating "Plase Miss I want to run away" Thomas Cook ad. Every single darn customer thought they were witty and original coming into the shop saying it ! Arghhh !
