Booking a Vacation package

[scrapperkimmydee]

I wanted to book the 2 night 2 park day package. The one that talks about enjoying the hotel on the first day, and then having 2 park days. But when I click on that and try to reserve it, I only get a 3 park day option.

What am I doing wrong?

It's tough to keep up with the TDR vac packages, as they change frequently. Back last year, the package options were 2-day/1-night, or 3-day/2-night. Do they actually now offer a 2-day/2-night? That sounds like an odd offering. But like I said, they change their offerings frequently at TDR!

I see it as bookable starting from July 1 as expected. If your date is within the correct booking window, there's a possibility it's already sold out for the date that you're checking.

Ah. That could be. We’re going in May.

If you're going May, 2025, it's very likely the VPs and room-only options are long gone. They've been available to reserve for a couple months now, and they go very fast.

VP are still available for May. It will be hard to book room only, same hotel and room type, the day before or after your package.

Still no booking date for September packages. Did I miss the announcement?

You haven’t. They’re just being very slow announcing the opening date!

I wonder if the delay is due changes in inclusions or pricing.

My assumption is that they are waiting to see how the whole regular entry into Fantasy Springs (and rides) shakes out, but I could also be wrong.

April 10th packages for September go on sale. Plans look the same.

Should I booked the 3 fantasy attractions an hour apart?

You are doing nothing wrong. They label it as 3 days but its actually 2 days in park and 2 nights. When you go to book you will see there are only 2 park days. With the first coming after the first night.

They have plans which offer a 2 night stay. One plan gives you DL, DS, DS. The other plan doesn't include a park day 1.

1/2 hour apart is plenty of time with a Priority Pass/DPA.

I wasn’t overly impressed with the restaurant at FSH, if that’s what you mean. The room is a bit sparse, even if you get seated in a window room. JMO.

Ds and I enjoyed the Snuggly Duckling and I LOVE the special merch that I bought with my meal! I'd go back there again.

I don't recommend booking any restaurants through the Vacation Package since it charges you for the most expensive meal set which you might not want anyway.

I like Snuggly Duckling in Fantasy Springs. Not a huge fan of the other 2 restaurants.

TRD can give anyone Merchandise Overload. I could've bought hundreds of things, but I'm at the stage in life where I don't need more sh, er, stuff. The one thing I regret was not getting this Roz. But I have a photo of it, so there's that. I've never seen serious Roz merchandise before.

I look at all the videos of people loading up on merch and am like, what are they going to do with it all, and how is their home not like completely buried in things/stuff?? I'm only 40 and have already reached that point :/

Kudos for being able to resist, and if you ever make it back and there's similar, you'll know then that's the one thing you want to bring home with you.
