Hey, this deal has been released. See this!
ROOM RATE AND FREE DAY DEAL TO COME OUT JANUARY 6?
Expectations are high that a room rate and small ticket deal for April 20-June 15, 2014 will come out for the general public Monday January 6.
Reports this morning are that this deal is already available to Disney Visa cardholders.
The deal seems to include not only a room rate discount, but also one free ticket day after a minimum buy: e.g. buy 4 days, and get the 5th free.
I don’t have any more specifics, but as I learn them–or my buddy Joe Black tells me them–I’ll pass them along!
HOW TO SCREW THIS DEAL UP
Well-meaning but inept advice is showing up here and there that non-Visa people–that is, the rest of us–should book now to “lock in your room,” and then convert your room to the deal later.
Deals don’t work this way.  You are competing for the inventory of the deal with everyone else, whether or not you already have a room.
So booking before the deal does not help you one bit in getting the deal once it comes out.
Moreover, the more who book now, the less pressure there is to have a deal at all–so booking now may reduce the number of rooms made available, or even narrow the dates offered.
So don’t book now, unless you plan to go with or without the deal!!

🙂 Lalani! Keep the questions coming…
Thank you! This site is amazing! It has become my go to site as we plan our first trip to Disney!!
Thanks, Dave.
I was trying to weigh the benefit of shorting travel time with the monorail vs. buses against the tiny tot appeal and 2-room situation vs. smaller space in one room. I’ve become a religious follower of yours as I plan this trip and knew you would have the answer!
Hi Lalani, you must obey my rules LOL! My rules only much matter if you will never be able to come back. Kidding aside, younger kids can have a wonderful time, especially if they have naps. And AofA is a much better place for naps than the Poly, because of the two rooms and two baths…giving the adults a place to retreat
Thanks, John!!!
