Hi Everyone! We've just posted links on our Addendum to all the details concerning our Affordable Disney's Exclusive Holiday Special at WDW (with Disney Cruise option) during December 1-13! It’s a flat rate of just $99 per night for Port Orleans Riverside and $171 per night at Animal Kingdom, INCLUDING TAX! Come for one night or come for ten! If you want to arrive earlier or stay later than the dates we have blocked, let us know and we'll try to extend to cover your dates. Cruise dates: December 9-12. We've got great rates on the Disney Wonder 3-night cruise to the Bahamas and Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay. So come for the long weekend, or add the cruise on to your land stay, your choice. PLUS! WE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE... Affordable Disney's Exclusive October and November Specials! Affordable Disney will be offering standard rooms at Port Orleans Riverside October 10-17 ($99+tax per night) and November 4-14 ($89 + tax per night)! You can buy one night or several, room-only or with our special package that includes unique hopper tickets, meal vouchers, and a private dessert party and fireworks viewing. That means OUR rooms are well over 30% off and you can get discounted tickets and scarce meal vouchers, too! If you're thinking of coming during either of these times and don't want to be purchasing packages with ultimate hoppers that you might not get good use of then this might be a great deal for you! Beth writes: "Last year they did not offer any room-only deals at all for [the general public] and I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't again." So, if you're looking for resort only discounts, we've got them! Log in for Beth's contact information and email her today for details! Now... Lean back, prop up your feet, and take a Disney break!

NEW! 3-Day Park Hopper Pass Good luck in finding this one somewhere else! No restrictions. Unused days never expire. Hurry! Supplies are limited. 4-Day Park Hopper Pass Special Purchase Get them for $10.00 less than Disney charges at their site! It comes with all the bells and whistles of a normal 4-Day Park Hopper, but it expires 14 days from its first use. However, for people who plan on going just 4 days, it's a great deal. This pass is only available for advance order purchasing. 4-Day Park Hopper Plus Pass Our ticket agent writes: "I have acquired the new Disney 4-Day Park Hopper Plus Pass. It is not sold at the gate or AAA. You get 1 "plus" day for the Water Parks or Pleasure Island. It has no expiration date." You must purchase this pass in advance. So order early! "I thought I knew all the tips for saving money at WDW, even being a member of the Magic Kingdom Club for over 15 years, but just learning about [your ticket agent] saved our family over $300!!! Thanks." Janet Handy, Bel Air, MD Details on how to purchase these special passes will be provided with your Disney access codes as soon as you join our Disney family.
Beth, our travel agent, writes: "Although they are still denying it and won't say anything specific, there is a big Disney press event going on next week in California starting Monday and many feel that it would be a logical time for them to announce that the Magic will do California cruises from Long Beach next summer. The repositioning cruises will probably be 10-14 days long, going over on May 14, 2005 and back on or about August 20. (The ship has to be back in Pt. Canaveral by September 3 to resume the schedule of cruises they've already starting booking. Anyway, I've heard conflicting stories about the length of the cruises. One source swears it will be short 3 and 4 nighters while another source says that they will do only 7 nighters. Could be either of those or a combination of both. What I am certain of is that the cruises will sell out in a flash. So one more time, if you want to snag some space on the repositioning cruise going westbound we have requested group space, but we will fill it on a first come-first served basis. If you want a suite on that cruise you'd better email me immediately because those are likely to be gone within an hour of the cruise being released for sale. I am also taking requests for anything else related to the Magic in 2005, but please advise ASAP." Members should log in today for Beth's contact details. Not a member? Join our Disney family today!
