Rough idea on price 1 week moderate with dining

[TC Devon]

Hello
I’d really like some help. We usually just stay in a villa.
For our next trip August 2021, I’d like to have a change. Start the three weeks with one week at a moderate hotel (2a 2c) then a villa for the remaining two weeks. I think we ve found a few villa options so have a good idea on prices for that.
No idea how much the Disney hotel would cost with dining. I think I’ve found Caribbean room only for 950 one week but obviously not 2021. Can’t find dining options on Disney website. If anyone can give me a rough idea for prices/budgets I can see if we can afford it or if we need three weeks in just a villa.

Flights are eye watering but as we want direct and in school holidays. I guess we must except that. Anyone knows how to get a lower price than 3611 (virgin) or 5568 fly drive, please let me know!
Hope this makes sense-typing in my phone and screen is so small I can hardly see what I’m writing!
Thanks

The CBR price will be with 2 free nights. If you do a dummy booking through to the end, add £50 each for tickets and see what the full price of CBR was (it shows you at the end) that gives you a rough idea of what you would have paid for this year.

So do I do a dummy booking through Disney website? Do I have to book park tickets through Disney when I do this and not through someone cheaper? Thanks

Yes or you won’t qualify for free dining. You need to know the cost including park ticket and what they were, not what they are now, which is about £50 more per adult.

We've paid £2559 for 8 nights next month at CSR for 3 adults. That includes 3X14 day tickets at £399 each, QSDP and $100 gift card. That price seemed pretty steady for most dates this year, the only adjustment would be the number of park tickets required.

Port Orleans which is also a moderate roughly increases its prices 3.28% over the whole year.

They actually have all the historic rates online on the unofficial portorleans.org website. So the day rate changes depending whether it is a weekday or weekend. Here is the current 2019 rates and it depends which part of the school holidays you go.

Flights wise it would depend on which airport you can fly from. We saved £2k in August by flying direct from Dub-Mco and cleared customs and immigration in Dublin. Obviously we had to add the Man-Dub return flights on but it still saved us a lot.

If you are near London then flying Norwegian drops the price down as there is more competition (BA, Virgin, Norwegian) flying from Gatwick.

If you fly into any other airport except Mco so FLL, MIA, Sanford(?) then you will save money, just have to drive a bit further.

If you want free dining (if it's offered in 2021), or to buy a dining plan, then you have to book your accommodation (minimum of 5 nights) and tickets as a package with the same agent. You can use other agents and still do this, so don't have to book through Disney. We've booked with Attraction Tickets Direct this year, and have used Orlando Attractions twice in the past.

Attraction Tickets Direct and Kenwood Travel have 2020 prices available, so do a search on there and add 5% to give a rough idea of 2021 prices.

We’ve done 5 nights onsite on our two trip. 5 nights is enough for us in one room. We move to a villa after that. For 2018 we paid £2621 for 5 nights with upgraded dining and tickets in a standard room at POFQ plus the $200 gift card. That was for 2 adults and 2 kids classed as Disney adults.

In 2016 we did the same amount of nights but at CBR which was £2081. That was for 2 adults 2 kids (one a Disney adult)

Not sure if that helps but is a rough idea!

I just looked at my original invoice which was 7 nights at CSR (usually same price as CBR) and it was £1218 for the room, plus tickets. There’ll be slight seasonal variations and obviously it goes up every year but it’s a rough guide at least.

Thinking five nights might be better. Do you just get the early fp booking for the days on site? Then it’s 30 days?
