Hello!
I was planning on a european trip and called today for early booking, but found out that even though I am over the 120 day early booking time frame, the rate is sold out because there are also only a limited amount of spaces for that rate. So basically, the cost is over a thousand more (for two of us, between my son and I) for the trip. I guess when I called five months ago for info, they didn't have the info that the early discount is also dependent on number of bookings, not just time frame (120 days in advance) which had been my impression (unfortunately). Since I didn't realize this and haven't really budgeted for the price increase, I am considering another tour group since tour outfits like Trafalgar and Collette look less expensive and also have good reviews, from what I've heard. I am hoping if I go with Tralfalgar instead that it might be comparable. I know my eight year old would rather go with Disney but the price is a great deal higher than I had planned and I'm not sure I can swing it. What do you think--will it be too painful to pay so much extra for the same tour? Or will we deeply regret not using Disney for our european tour? This would have been my son's first trip to Europe. Thanks for help. I have no idea what to choose. Thanks![wizard :wizard: :wizard:](http://www.wdwinfo.com/images/smilies/wizard.gif)
