I'd never heard of it. The idea of driving from Miami and splitting our time is becoming more appealing, could extend our holiday to 3 weeks also instead of just 2. Thanks for your help so far, it's been so useful! You're right about this forum, so glad I came here haha
You're welcome. We loved our split stay last year and will do the same next summer too. Have a read through some trip reports too, they always give a honest insightful look into a Florida holiday!

Enjoy the planning!

Do you book the Free Dining offer direct with Disney, or is it cheaper through an agent (and if so, can you recommend any)?

Thanks

It is usually Orlando Attractions are cheaper then Direct and have excellent customer service as well.

I was looking at 2018 prices. Feels expensive! I am unsure if I want to go or not next year. I hope they have some room discounts again

huge difference between prices during summer vs October.

Same here, debating whether to put it off until 2019. We want WL and Aug next year compared to this is £2000 more 😩

Does anyone think that with the current reduced price of tickets and free night offer that it might be cheaper to book now than wait for the free dining ?

The free night offer is for 2017 holidays. Free dining will be for 2018.
