I hope I'm posting this question in the right place!
I am in the beginning stages of planning a trip to WDW for the week of Thanksgiving 2003 for my parents 50th wedding anniversary. There will be 11 adults and 4 children (ages 3 1/2 to 10). We want to stay at the WL (except for one adult who wants to stay at the AS?) but it is really confusing between who is going down when, how long are they staying, who needs air fare, who doesn't.....etc! At this point, since no one wants to share rooms, we need 6 rooms!! Can anyone tell me the best way to get started? I contacted our local travel agent a few days ago and gave her some details, but I haven't heard back from her yet. Is there a "best" way to book it?? My sister wants me to get quotes from several sources (Liberty Travel, AAA, Am Ex, Disney themselves.....etc.) Is this smart or a waste of time? I just contacted Dreams Unlimited also - from what I've read they might be the best choice. Any help, tips or advice on how to get this started would be very appreciated. Also, can we book this far in advance? And, is that a good idea or not? and, lastly, from what I can see, the week of Thanksgiving falls into the "Value" period, but I also read somewhere that it is one of the most expensive weeks, so I'm a little confused. Does anyone know if the rates are higher that week?
THANKS!!!!
