Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Wow, 40% discount would be GREAT! In Oct we booked a suite at PPH and it was during AP8 rate time but the CM said the suites were not offered on the "deal." We did get 10% off. I'd guess that the rates fluctuate depending on booking?

I was told that if they run out of AP8 rated rooms of a type that you want, you can keep calling to check upon cancellations. Of course it kind of all depends on who you talk to, though. I remember talking to another cast member that sounded a little put out that I was hoping to better my rate and that it wasn't going to happen. It didn't, but that still wouldn't prove there wasn't a chance.
