Disney Increases Prices and More

Well, it happens every year and this year is no exception.  Disney has increased the price of park tickets.  It wasn't much this year, but any increase is a headache.  It is now $89 for adults and $83 for kids for a one day, one park pass.  Now, I always tell people that you should stay at Disney as long as you can because then your per day price goes down dramatically!  The longer you stay the less you pay!  You really need at least 2 days for the Magic Kingdom and Epcot and at least 1 whole day for Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom.  Ideally, it would be best to have 2 full days at each park and have some time to explore Downtown Disney too!

Now, on to other news.  The Fantasmic Dining Packages finally opened up for November.  But, guess what?  I didn't book it.  Why?  Well, for one the times that that had opened for Mama Melrose were horrible!  As a family, we eat lunch early (11:00) and dinner at around 4:30.  They were giving me 1:20 times.  After thinking about it, I decided it just wasn't worth it.  We'll just do Fantasmic the regular way and hope we can get a seat in the back of the theater.  Also, this allowed me to go back to my original plan of trying out the Cape May Cafe for dinner on one of our Hollywood Studios days.  Did you know they have a boat that goes from the Beach Club Resort to Hollywood Studios?  It sounds fun to try anyway!

Southwest openend up their flights through January this morning, so I was also able to book our flights!  I got really good times and used points that we had, so we hardly had to pay anything.  I was really happy to finally get that part done!

One more thing, Disney has not yet opened the package rates for next year, but they should soon.  So, I'm keeping my eye on it for several people.  If you want to be added to my list for a quote email me at kerri@fairytaledreamtravels.com
