Just out of curiosity when you book 2017 will you just book accommodation with ddp through Disney or the flights as well?

I book separately because Disney won't have flights till 11 months before your departure. But if you want to go through Disney for your flights you can add them on later.

I booked flights separately however, I did get an email off Disney a few months after booking to say that flights were available to add if I wanted.

Ah it can feel like that initially. But once you decide where and when, the rest will follow.

Thank you, I know when and I'm almost sure I know where, it's just the package vs diy that's confusing me X

Best thing to do is get lots of different prices but also consider what's best for you. DIY can be cheaper but more often than not flights need to be paid up front for example - not ideal for everyone.

First time I booked everything with Charter Travel and this time I've booked a package but next year I'm going for DIY.

I just need to decide which resort! I keep changing my mind.

I'm guessing it's best to wait for the free dining to be released in April to get the most accurate price? I've booked our villa just need the 6 days on site and 1 day at universal. We are a 5 so kinda limited with Disney hotels unless we pay lots, I'm drawn towards cbr, but could pay £900 extra to stay at contemporary as I worried about the Murphy bed in cbr. Decisions decisions !

I change hotel every day.

I've gone from CSR to SSR to POR to SSR to CSR to SSR.

Totally torn between resorts.

CSR - Better theming, fab bars, better QS options with Pepper Market, lovely rooms, cheaper
POR - Boat link to Disney Springs, cheaper than SSR, smaller, amazing Trip Advisor reviews.
SSR - Walking distance to Disney Springs, deluxe resort, big rooms

Essentially I'm at location vs theming and I can't choose so it may have to come down to price...

HELP!
