Where do you book?

[fleur_charms]

I'm looking for, what feels like, some very newbie advice!

I've been to Florida tons of time but never stay on-site. Well next year I'm hoping to visit with my bestie and neither of us want to drive so on-site it is. So I'm wondering: who do you book through? We're looking to book free Disney Dining as cheap as possible.

Currently the best deal I've found is with Attraction Tickets Direct for around £3,300 at Coronado Springs for two weeks in Sept/Oct. Plus, they add an extra $100 spending money. I found another deal with Virgin including flights, which is better for the peace of mind but it valued the flights at over £1000 so seems better to book without them.

If you book direct with Disney but via topcashback you should get more than the extra $100 from ATD. Plus if you book direct it normally links quickly and if you want can add a flight later.

I always book direct with Disney using Top Cashback to get £ back. I figured the giftcard from ATD isn't "real money" as such and I would rather have that than a giftcard!

I book direct with Disney using Quidco. The cashback comes in handy 😀

If you want to add flights on is adding them through Disney normally pretty reasonable?

[Andybear]

I don't do that - I like booking flights direct with the airline.

I have booked the last 3 trips direct with Disney, i book the hotel, tickets and dining,
Then i look for flights prices i keep watching until I find a price im happy to pay ish!
you can either book them yourself or ring Disney and add them this then becomes a package which is ATOL protected, which I like for piece of mind.
I have used travel agents in the past and the only difference is its cheaper to do yourself the holiday is exactly the same.

I’m another one who books direct with Disney via Quidco for cash back. I prefer that for ease of making changes and peace of mind. I book flights separately but you can add them on with Disney.

Book with Disney, great service and peace of mind. They are very efficient too, emails come straight away for payments or amendments. Who would use a travel agent now days, so much cheaper to do it all yourself and it’s great fun too 👍🏻

Are Disney quite flexible if you need to change date? I'm thinking of booking thurs-thurs so hopefully the flights are cheaper but if I ended up with cheaper flights on the weekend could I move my booking?
