Date and Rate ...............2009

[ruadisneyfan2]

Hi All
I am booked at the HRH for 8 nights in October, the 24th to the 31st. Our original price (this was at the AAA rate) was $260.10 for the weekend days and $242.10 for the weekdays.

I called yesterday to check for anything new, and the woman told me because we were staying 7 nights or more, that I could get a better rate. She said it wasn't the supersaver rate, but some other multi-night discount, so.........

Now I'm paying $216.75 for the first Saturday night, then it bumps down to $161.40 for the weeknights, and Fri the 30th and Sat the 31st are only $173.40!

To make a long story short, we are saving just under $700!!!!! from our original booking price

That really made my day, since I am still in a post vacation funk, after having been at the parks from May 23rd to the 31st.

I have been calling roughly every 2 weeks since early February when I originally booked our stay, and this just came available now.

So, anyone going for HHN call and check for any changes, it certainly won't hurt to try!

-Mike

Congrats!!!
That's like getting free airfare!

I booked the flight down when it was $99, (it's now $120) the flight that was $59 was at the very end of the first day our timeshare is booked (that's the first week there, HRH is the 2nd) I check every day and am waiting for my flight to go down. The flight home doesn't open up until June 23rd, so hopefully we'll get a $59 flight for that, as we always take the last flight of the day coming home, we'll see.........

Fares should open around 11-11:20am that day...watch for it. I usually sit and watch for them to release right around that time and I usually get the best rate then. I did that for our flights this summer in Jan when they opened and got $59. Hasn't been below $89 since. (and, high as $109 too)

Last time they released new dates, 4/14, I planned to take an early lunch at work. Up at 5:30 am for work, I drink my coffee and read my email around 6. Lot's of posts about SWA already releasing their dates. I was shocked.

Worst part is my neighbor who will be sailing with us had just gotten home from a short trip at 1 am and I felt so bad calling her to grab the flights! She thanked me so many times later but still, I felt terrible.

Keep your eyes peeled!

Will be staying at The Hard Rock from August 18 (Tuesday) thru August 24 (Monday).

Total price including taxes. $978.00. Averages out at $163.00 per night for a Garden View Room with two queen size beds. The only added cost was the 2 Park Unlimited admission tickets which were an additional $212.00 and the two round trip tickets from Atlantic City which were $348.00.

Will ask for an upgrade to Club level when we get there or at least a break in the cost of the upgrade using my Lowes You First card.

The reason your rates are like that is because you have a package.
If you just book the room a standard 2 queen is $215.20 a night

 

[bubba's mom]

The point ky07 is trying to make is that it's not always cheaper to book a Universal package like it is Disney.

Most times a la carte is cheaper.

Check Supersaver rate and AAA (if you have it). Assuming you don't have an AP....
