I'm sure Avatar will get the locals to flock to AK, but I have my doubts that it's going to fill up hotel rooms. Sure not looking like it will, at least summer season wise.....Those UK offers are really reasonable for WDW in the summer. Once again, it's an indicator of black clouds on the horizon.
I can tell you that the AP previews worked to fill up a hotel room. Trying to stay first weekend of previews, all values were booked and a few moderates were left. A lot of "Standard" deluxe rooms also booked. Now, we know Disney plays funny business with room availability sometimes. But still. That's something.
I do think early on Avatar will draw in the out of state APs. And will probably draw in some additional holiday and summer traffic. But I wonder what will happen when school goes back in and less US families are able to travel.
