Hi for those of you who managed to switch after the 330 days did you see availability online first or did you just keep calling?

Thanks so much for that. I had pretty much ruled out the ability to get OKW but maybe it will still be an option.

We booked OKW on the day free dining was released and had it confirmed at the 330 day mark. £3,700 for 10 nights, 2A and 2C (11 and 6) with free DP. We are staying in a studio.

To be honest I've called ATD twice to cancel as DH and I decided that we couldn't justify going two years in a row and would save up and go in 2020. They have suggested we wait and see! I don't think we will get close to this price with free DP next near. Think we are going to wait until April and see what the prices look like then before we make a final decision. It's messing with my head though because I have booked some restaurants just in case!

Just felt so lucky to have secured OKW with free dining

I agree, I'd stick with that deal- I'd expect a much higher price in 2020.

Kept checking online. Not obsessively - around once or twice per week. Then rang up to swap from POR.

We have always stayed at OKW with the big discounts which I know are now gone 😩 can you tell me if you booked for this year did you book at port Orleans say for eg then switched to OKW when they become available at the 330 day mark or did you wait for the availability date to arrive ? Trying to gauge the most guaranteed way! I know the big discounts dropped off too so I’ve not really got an idea of the pricing. Is anyone happy to tell me what price a studio/2 bed was for this year ? Any help would be appreciated .. thanks you lovely dibbers 😉
We booked AKL first then changed to POR then OKW

We booked POR when dinning came out, I struggled to get the dates I wanted in a 1 bed at OKW so ended up changing dates (28th July)
We did the same holiday in 2017 we paid £4600 hotel and park tickets
This year £6748 hotel & park tickets for 4 (all classed as adults) 😳 that’s quite a bit more. But as my girls are 13 &16 we don’t all want to be in the same room & they don’t want to share a bed.
