DECEMBER 2017 DISCOUNTS AND CODE WATCH

[Crazyhorse]

Anything for the POLY the week after Thanksgiving?

Week of 11/26-12/2, no availability at ANY deluxe resort hotel.

Just checked the AP discount for our dates 12/8 through 12/12. The ONLY availability was the family suite at ASM and the discount wasn't that great.

Copper Creek showed up as if it might be available, but when I clicked through, the website could not find the offer.

Hope other have better luck!

Can you share the availability you saw? We are considering an AP but I can't waste an hour on the phone today. Thanks!

it was pretty minimal for mid December. Mostly in the $450-$700 per night range, some deluxes, and then family suites at the values. I got 2 nights at Coronado, but there wasn't anything longer.

Wow..............does this mean the fall the crowds are going to be up?

For any AP holders, Discounts are up but I heard there really isn't anything!

It is very slim pickings. I found CSR for a few dates but mostly deluxe or DVC resorts.

While checking frequently I did fine a few rooms at GF SV and CL mid Dec....but why do I have to stay 6 nites.....when I only want 4 for the disc price!!! They are forcing me to stay longer for the disc...now it seems....

Agree that the new AP discount is minimally (if at all) better than the general public one. Very disappointing!

Discount seems to be about 10% on deluxe - was looking for any availability at YC and discount was exactly 10% moderates seemed to be less....

This is really, really surprising to me. Either resorts are full or Disney really wants to cut promos. Ouch either way...

I think it's the latter - lower crowds but higher spend/guest.

I found zero availability for my dates, but I have a reservation I booked through a third party with a code from earlier this year that I am fine with. I could have changed my dates to get the discount, but it was mostly really expensive deluxes and I'm trying to go lean for my December and January trips so I can splurge in the spring on a DVC villa. I hope there is a really good bounceback room only offer for next year so I can just book and forget about stalking the internet for offers.

This is annoying me. On the discount page it says this hotel is included, but then if you talk to a CM they say its excluded. I told them the website says different they don't care.

I asked politely to be transferred to a manager and he was able to apply the ap discount for copper creek, but only because i already had my reservation booked at rack rate. Worth a shot. Saved me $800

really? What are your dates? I have the room currently booked at rack rate and had tried talking to guest services when a CM couldn't help me, but it was before the annual passholder discount had come out and was for the general discount.

First week of december. I would explain to the cm what you see and that you would like to speak to the manager.

Just an fyi, it appears weekends are excluded from the ap offer, but the general public discount is not.

That's okay my entire stay is during the week (Sunday too, not sure if that counts as weekend or not)
