Disneyland Paris booking hack that could save you money this Christmas
Disney fans could save money on a pre-Christmas trip to Disneyland by booking a November trip at the start of the park's Christmas season.
Savvy travellers could be there for the launch of the Disney Enchanted Christmas festivities on November, 11, enjoying all the ambience while making big savings on a three-night stay. By booking a visit in mid-November guests can also make the most of shorter queues, sparser crowds and the fresh, crisp weather.
Holiday company Love Holidays is offering three-night stays at a choice of hotels close to the park starting from £137. Flying from London Gatwick on November, 11, Disney fans could save money by joining in early with the celebrations at Europe's best-loved attraction.
Disneyland Paris offers the most enchanting Christmas wonderland, where twinkling streets and a giant tree makes Christmas come alive for fans of all ages.
Although final details of this season's festivities are yet to be announced, previous celebrations have included:
