The one airline I was looking up has gone up $10 per person per leg, meaning $60 total for my family of three. But on hotwire.com, it says the best deals are generally within 60 days of your trip. It's a terrible waiting game!

Originally Posted By Coleen I think it's worth is to take the time to do the research. Mousesavers.com is great. But it does take time to sort through the info. If you don't want to do that, you can call (407) W-DISNEY. I talked to someone there today to change my reservation. He helped me book it as two separate trips so I could get the free Dining package that starts during the middle of my planned vacation. He knew the ins and outs of the WDW tickets and helped me work it so I could get the most for my money. VERY nice.
Originally Posted By Disneymom443 I would go through Disney , I'm sure MouseEars is a good site for booking and they do give free quotes, but I had aked for several different things that would be an extra cost and they didn't put it in the quote. My HD said because of that he would not use them.
Originally Posted By dlgirler I have to say this for Penny at MouseEars ... I contacted her in the beginning stages of my research. I had already talked to a few different agencies, and found Penny to be the most organized, helpful and knowledgeable. She generously offered me several money-saving tips (before any other organizations seems to know about them). I would've booked through her, but naively didn't realize only AAA reps can book AAA discounted pkgs.

Their website is: www.wdwvacations.com. I highly recommend them! In fact, we booked another cruise while on board, and once again Small World is helping us plan that, plus I just got in contact with them for a WDW trip prior to our cruise. They are personable, they have a lot of information to make your vacation "MAGICAL" and they will save you some money. Now that is very important!! Have fun!! ºoº
