We are booked for first week in April — but now knowing if WDW will re-open we decided to book our backup plan for October – I found the room, entered all the info, checked out the cart, entered the payment info and…

I know that calling would be ridiculous now. Is anyone seeing errors booking Disney hotel rooms on the website? This was March 15 in the evening when I got this error. Anyone know how to get around the error?

I just did the same thing and got the same message. I switched to Incognito chrome browser and it went through. Might be worth a try

Ok, a couple of things to add:

  1. This may have been a user error (aka my error). I finally noticed that I entered my 12 year old as an adult, which is the case for tickets, but NOT for rooms. So where it asked for an “Adult 18+” I selected “Sarah (12)” from the drop-down. Now, computers should be good at detecting that and telling me as I select it, but in this case it did not, and I think that may be why I got the error when I tried to submit the entire form

  2. But we will never know because on a lark I called, and instantly got through. I could not believe it, but the Cast Member said I called at a good time and she was incredibly helpful

  3. The cast member pointed out that the way I was going to do it, which was room only, would require to be re-booked as a package later if my primary trip got cancelled and I tried to move the tickets forward. This brings up the interesting point that only Cast Members can book packages with ZERO (0) park days – the website does not appear to give this option

  4. maybe #1 was not the issue after all - now I cannot even load the https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/ home page. It goes to whats called a “virtual waiting room”, which in my case shows a cartoon Millennium Falcon – this is common for web-pages that are past capacity. It’s been on that waiting room page for minutes now

Great tip! I tried that, and even tried an entirely new browser. In my case that was not a fix though

I got this error message all weekend, trying to book a backup trip. I even tried incognito. I finally called and, like you, spoke to a super kind CM right away. I booked room only- I WILL have to transfer tickets as well. You say they’ll have to rebook as a package? I wonder if having to book them as a package will make me ineligible for room-only discount, because that would really suck. I don’t think there’s ever discounts on packages, are there?

Sorry, I should have been more clear. I have a package NOW, so if I need to cancel and move everything to October I still want to have a package then. That is my case – sounds like yours is different.

I actually mis-spoke. You can book a package with NO tickets, but only through a cast member (not online)
