Still waiting for November APH rates to come out!
I'm waiting for mid November. Hopefully it won't be too much longer.![]()
I just looked at the paperwork for our last trip and the APH rates didn't come out until April 15th for our stay beginning April 29th! I really hope we don't have to wait that long this time!
Is it normal that AP rates for the rest of Nov aren't out yet? Is it a sign that there may not be AP rates for the rest of the year?
Hoping for mid-November....
I'm spending several nights so I bit the bullet and booked through Orbitz for January. It's prepaid but refundable. They frequently offer 20% off that's combines with the stay more save more rate. Their codes just started being offered through March. I'm also getting cash back through e-bates. My weekday rate for Jan 6-8 is $80 and $90 on the weekend for Cabana Bay. I'll still watch for an APH rate to see if it's better.
This is what I did for December, but through Cheaptickets. I got my Ebates as well. I managed to jump on a very limited 25% discount offer, and I honestly don't think the APH rates will beat what I paid, but I have my fingers crossed. I didn't mind paying up front for that much of a discount. I had already booked with them when there was a 20% discount offer, so I cancelled the first reservation and made the second. I was billed and got my refund on the same day which alleviated any concerns about changing reservations with them.
I was originally going to do 4 night at the AKV (Value Studio) and 4 night at Cabana Bay but because the discount goes up on a 5 night stay that 5th night only ended up costing like $20. I still have both rooms booked for that night so if an APH rate comes out I may switch back to 4 and 4. It's good to know the refund went through so quickly.
