2011 Room Rates
Beth, our travel agent, writes "Disney very
quietly solidified their 2011 room rates this week... I can now book you
a basic package for 2011. What that means is that we can lock in your
space and get you a resort confirmation number so that you can book your
dining and Grand Gathering events at the 180 day mark.
Remember that the deposit is only $200 within a week of booking, and thats
100% refundable as long as you cancel no later than 45 days prior to arrival
(the final payment date). If you're considering a Disney vacation next year,
especially during a peak time or over a holiday weekend, NOW is the time
to get your space set up. As part of my service (included with your Affordable
Disney membership), I'll watch for promotional deals that you'd qualify for
and automatically change you over, so you have nothing to lose by booking
early." |

Thanks." Janet Handy, Bel Air, MD
"Plenty of roadside outfits in Orlando promise discounted tickets, but most
of them really want to rope you into a time-share sales pitch in exchange

16, 2004. NEVER overpay again! |

"John,
I just wanted to thank you for all of your helpful tips on your Affordable
Disney website. As you state throughout your website, Beth [your travel agent] is wonderfully
helpful. She has us booked for 8 days over Thanksgiving. Below are the savings
we got by utilizing Beth. Originally we had booked our vacation and in the
meantime Beth was watching the promotions for us. When one became available
she jumped on it for us. We changed our reservation from All Star Movies
to All Star Sports, but saved over $452 per room by doing so. This
is the first time our families are going as a grand gathering. We are really
looking forward to the wonderful memories we'll share as an extended family.
Thanks to all of you." Stacie S., Flower Mound, TX - Lifetime Member since 2005.

How Beth, our travel agent, saved a family
$3,000:
"I figured out a LONG time ago that just because Disney's promotional offers
state that certain dates or resorts are excluded doesn't mean that they really
are. For the current deal, the dates of April 5-18 are specifically not included.
But today I got every single one of them changed over to the deal. Every
one! In one case, a family with two rooms saved about $3,000!" |
| Comments from members:
"Keep up the good work, regularly enjoy our 'Disney fix' through your newsletter." Vince
"Hi John, Wow! I can't believe that I found your information all the way back in 2001! That is when we were planning our 2nd visit to
Disney and your info and tips, etc., were very definitely helpful. We had a great trip. We've been back twice since then and are planning
for more trips in the future." Lori (Lifetime Member)
"I joined Affordable Disney for a trip that I took spring of 2009. It was well worth it. I enjoyed all of the insight from your site and Beth saved
me big bucks. I remember when I joined then, there was a rate for 1 year and there was also a lifetime rate. Is the Lifetime option still available?
As we have fallen in love with Disney we are planning several trips and the lifetime would be best, if it is still an option." Brian
"Hi John - We utilized your service 4 years ago for a wonderful trip we had to Walt Disney World.
We would like to use your service again to book our trip for this spring break." Doug
"Hi John, Brilliant website! Can I ask a quick question as you seem to
know more about Disney than people I speak to on WDW TOUR... Look forward
to your response, keep up the great work!" Brian
"I registered back in 2001. Is there anyway that I can
get my logins reset? Thank you soooo much!
My family has saved a fortune from things we learned on your site!!
I am anxious to brush up on my 'mouse-savings.'" Heather
"I am a Deluxe Lifetime Member and I love this site and [your travel agent] Beth! Thank you."
Stacey
"We love your online book and the great updates you send us. We've used
many of your tips and info you provide on our Disney vacations since 2001.
You've saved us time and money. Thanks again and keep it coming!" Cynthia
"I just wanted to take the time to thank you for your affordable website,
and especially for Beth's wonderful help... I will recommend your site to
all of my friends." Judy
"WOW!!! Was that fast or what? I was sure I would have to wait until Monday
morning to hear from you and possibly delay my travel plans. You've delivered
yet again. Your service has been WELL WORTH the price I paid for it and then
some." Paige
"Thanks so much, John, for providing such a great service. We've picked up
some great money saving tips. I LOVE your site. It is awesome!" Georgia
"Your affordabledisney.com website came up in conversation with a friend
the other day. She raved about it and said your tips saved her over $800
dollars." Kathy

is just that kind of service that made me renew our subscription with you,
and keeps me going back to Beth whenever we plan a Disney trip. Many thanks."

I just wanted to express my gratitude and appreciation for helping us out.
Beth has been extremely helpful! Thank you so much!" Jeff
"My husband and I used the book over 5 yrs ago to go to Disney for our honeymoon
and it has been and continues to be an excellent investment!" Lisa
"You could surely give other companies, individuals, etc. some tips on prompt
customer service. You are awesome!" Janeen
"I love your newsletter. I've used so many of your tips to help keep the
cost down on the 2-3 trips I take to DisneyWorld each year. Thanks for all
the great information. By the way....Beth is GREAT." Fran
"I have been looking on the Disney Website and have researched some prices.
My first attempt was with a package deal which totaled $2935. After reviewing
some of your tips, I changed to a Sunday arrival and looked up pricing
separately. The hotel came in at $1553 and the tickets (5-day pass w/park
hopper) at $968. See, you've saved me $300 already!" Ann

Why mess with us?
Beth, our travel agent, sent this letter in response to a question about
the value of our service:
"Most people don't spend all day, every day like we do making Disney reservations
so they are unfamiliar with how Disney promotions work.
We want you
to come back and book all your other vacations with us, too, so we work really
hard to make sure that you've got the best deal going for your particular
situation - even if that means sending you to book with someone else. (And
yes, we actually have to do that sometimes!)
Why mess with us in the first place? It's a hassle free
way to be sure you'll end up with a promotional rate if there
is one to be had, and we've sent out literally hundreds of 'good news about
your reservation' emails to people telling them we just changed their rate
code and saved them big bucks!
And finally, it's important to note that when you invest in a membership
in Affordable Disney you are not just purchasing access
to a bunch of travel agents. There are many, many ways to reduce
the cost of a Disney vacation.
The cost of your room and tickets is only the beginning. John's book, and
his continually updated addendum section, give you tons of tips on how
to cut costs on food, merchandise, airfares,
etc.
There are also lots of tips on getting the most out of your trip, like when
to go, how to 'attack' the parks, how to avoid long lines, etc. We sometimes
offer discounts or incentives that are ONLY available
to Affordable Disney members.
There are also updates on great deals for non-Disney
travel as well... I'm working with my staff to do a
dramatic expansion into some other areas like cruising, all-inclusive resorts,
family travel, and more - and we'll be digging for the very lowest rates
on all that stuff, too!
Sorry to write such a novel, but I really believe that Affordable Disney
offers so many benefits to its members. I am not under any sort of contract
to John and wouldn't continue working with him for so long if I didn't think
that his product was top-notch. I'm very pleased and honored to be a part
of that.
Thanks for giving us the opportunity to serve you.
Beth"

3rd Membership a Must!
"Hi John and All at Affordable Disney
Four years ago we went to Disney World for what my husband was calling 'The
Trip of a Lifetime.' As you would guess, and as I was sure in advance, we
went back for the 2nd Trip of a Lifetime just last year. For both trips,
we bought a membership to Affordable Disney. It was a fabulous resource
for us. First time around, with a tip from Beth [your travel agent],
I booked us into the Courtyard Marriott in Downtown Disney for $20.02 a night.
(BEAT THAT!!!)
This week, we found out that both of our daughters will be playing with their
school band at Disney in May of 2007. As you might guess, you know there's
no way they are going to be doing this without my husband and me watching
on. And crying through it all... Of course we want to get a membership
for our planning to begin again... We love your site. See you in Disney!"

water park is going to be a hit with the kids, and the options on suites
are really cool. In Virginia, some sleep up to 8 people and most sleep at
least 6. We're also looking at Smuggler's Notch in Vermont, another incredible
family resort, as well as putting a family spin on some locations not
traditionally thought of as family destinations.
VEGAS - As with Disney World, the hotels are attractions unto themselves.
Add to that the shows, both free and ticketed, and the side trips to places
like Ethel M's chocolate factory and the Hoover Dam, and you can spend days
there having a blast without dropping a single quarter into a machine. And
yes, we're also looking at the idea of doing a few days at Disneyland "for
Disney World fans."
ADULTS ONLY - We all love our children, but every once in awhile it's really
nice to send them to Grandma's house for a few days and escape for a little
RR&R - rest, romance, and relaxation. We're looking over the best adult-only
destinations in the world to see what we can come up with to provide parents
their own little get-away opportunities.
OTHER IDEAS
* JUST MOMS - Put Dad in charge of the kids for a few days and go away with
the girls
* SINGLE PARENTS - A chance for single parents to take their kids on vacation
and meet up with other single parents to compare notes, exchange war stories,
or just make new friends.
* BONDING WITH DAD - Pack up Dad and the kids and send them away for a few
days
* SPECIAL NEEDS - It can be hard for families with children - or adults -
who have special needs to get away, but perhaps we can figure something out.
What sort of special needs does YOUR family have??
* ALTERNATIVE FAMILIES - These days, the definition of "family" can mean
many things and it's always nice to meet up with others that can relate to
what you're dealing with. Are you raising your grandchildren? Maybe multiple
foster children? Multiple generations under one roof? Merging your family
with that of a friend or sibling? Tell us your situation and maybe we can
get several similar families together for some fun. |
Look At What Our Members
Say About Affordable Disney!
| "I just returned from WDW. I was there 5 days/4
nights. I paid $616 for the whole trip including American Airlines
non-stop business class ($220 RT) and Port Orleans French Quarter @$99/night.
This trip would have cost me $1,867 if the reservations were made through
Mouse Reservations. Giant Mickey Mouse Ears tipped to Beth for her invaluable
personalized service and attention to detail. To date, with the airlines
tip alone, I have saved almost $5,000 since joining Affordable Disney.
Eyes and Ears to You and Donna."
Dr. James L Heatherley, Ferris, TX |

| "I am soooo happy that I ordered your book - what
a lot of great information! I figure that tip alone you gave me saved
me over $2,300CAD in 1 week!" |
| Moira Davis, Saskatchewan, Canada |
| "We just got back from a great trip ... and thanks
to you and your great advice, saved money and time! ... In total we
saved about $3,000 for our group of 6. We are going back within
a year to use our passes again, and think our per person cost will
be in the $150-200 range, flights and all." |
| Michael Barrett, Wisconsin Rapids, WI |
| "I saved over $4,000
on our first trip to Florida. My wife and our four
children enjoyed our best vacation to date. We have informed other Texans concerning the benefits received from
your book. Thank you!" |
| Rick Rodgers, Hamlin, TX |
|
| "I have been using your book faithfully to plan
our WDW vacation in June. It has been worth its weight in
gold! Using the special codes you provided have saved us a lot of
money. In fact, when placing my reservation,
the WDW employee said she could not
get as good as deal as I did even with her employee
discount!" |
| Nicki Embly, Barberton, OH |
"I just wanted to tell you how very happy I was to be able to discover your
site and had the brillance of thought to join it. I love the easy
to read tips and news that you provide and it has all been very helpful in
the planning process of this trip. I also took some codes that you sent out
and phoned Disney back to see if they would work for my reservation and guess
what? I saved $550 US because of your information on my trip in
December. That is about 25% of the package price for my husband and me.
I hope you add this to your testimonials as your site is worth every single
penny. Keep up the amazing work." Mary Rose Lennox, Alberta,

Are you recommending a cheap vacation like those I read about in books

Our plans include resort hotel accommodations and
dining at restaurants and eateries on Disney property; ticket, airfare and
