Travel Agent V's The Web

Postby RickGainsmith » Sat Mar 28, 2009 3:45 pm

Disney Website Price
USD $1587.06 - 16th to the 23rd Sept Paradise Peir, inc 6 day pass for the price of 4. AUD conversion at 0.68 (aprox exchange rate) = $2333 AUD.
Webjet.com.au for Air Fares = $3141.97
Total $5474.97

Travel Agent
Total $6186 (5 Day pass included) Everything else is the same.

Anyone booked through Disney's website before, seems obvious which way to go me...

Rick.

I never use a TA for the US - the web makes it too easy!

Hi Rick - I just booked my Aug-Sept trip completely via the web. Didn't have to speak to anyone. The only thing I'm going to a travel agent for is to pick up my 2 x 14-day Disneyland Park Hopper tickets.

I just booked hotels directly through the hotel website, and airfares through Qantas. I also booked my Disney on Broadway tickets through their website (I know I could get them cheaper through the TKTS booth in NYC, but I wouldn't get the great seats I got that way - we'll buy other spur of the moment tickets through them when we get there.)

I used Jana from the Main Street travel company and because she is a huge park and cruise fan she knew the best rooms. It will depend on what you are after. She really knows her Disney!

Unless things have changed, you may not be able to book direct with Disney Travel for the PP Hotel online. You need to enter a ZIP code which counts us Aussies out. BUT, I have booked direct with them twice for Anaheim over the phone and it's as easy as to do. For about $1 worth of phone call they really look after you and I have had no problems.
