this is not true, you need to BOOK the trip but can change resorts after the 15th. I am booked for the CSR but am waiting to get AKL or WL. CM's told me I can continue to try to change after the 15th!! So now if everyone booked with the code can change there trip resorts around so I can get my AKL...I will be happy!;)

I'll pretend I didn't see this. ;) I've literally changed my resort 4 or 5 times. We're currently at BWI. I paid up, so chances are pretty good I'll keep my reservation, but we started at AKL, changed to WL, then to POR, finally resting at BWI. My dh said he doesn't want to know until we pull up to the front door now....he just laughs at me. I feel bad for the reservationists though. I'm a royal pain.

What are the dates you can book for with the 40%, in other words, through Dec., Jan.?

You can still book the 40% off today right? I just tried to add a room for my parents and was told "Nope. That's been discontinued."

Call again - the CM was misinformed.

March 15th is the final booking date.

From the email

Call 407-939-7822 or book through your Travel Agent by March 15, 2007.

Altho generally speaking.. they are requiring a PIN to book. There was confusion in the early running. Please note that Skater was able to book but had a PIN under her husbands name.

I don't know why, but I feel like I need permission to keep calling back for different CM's.

I just kept relying on you all saying that different people say different things.

And, I kept calling back...

YEA!!

I got 40% discount. 1st CM said I needed the pin. 2nd CM didn't ask for pin!!!!!

YEA!!!!!!!!!!

I wanted Pop Century. No Pop Century rooms were available. But Coronado Springs was available - and for $4 less a night ($105) than the regular priced Pop rooms ($109) would be.

So, I reserved room only for now and may add tickets and dining.

Thank you all for your help and ideas!!!

Do you need to have a "code" to even request the 40% off? Can someone please please please PM me the "code" so I can make a reservation today?

Thanks in advance!!!

Jenn -

These were the dates I was given for the discount:

02/25-03/07 - Peak Season Rate
05/28-06/03 - Summer Season Rate
08/21-10/06 - Value Season Rate
10/21-11/03 - Regular Season Rate
11/11-11/16 - Regular Season Rate
12/09-12/22 - Value Season Rate

2nd time I called, I got a CM who booked it for me without asking for the pin - I just gave her the code.

Good luck!

I called yesterday to see if I could book for a friend of mine using the code. The CM was very clear..No pin, no code. She said they have all been warned about this. She mentioned the Spring code which is a different code but it did not help as she can not travel till after the summer. :confused3

Leah:

I'm not 100% on this.. but I don't think you can add tickets & dining to a room only reservation without them cancelling out the reservation all together. And then you would be outside the March 15th booking deadline for the resulting 'new' reservation.

So.. you may want to call back and book a minimal package reservation.. Or at least ask the CM or a supervisor for clarification to be sure.

Hi there,

Well I managed on the 4th attempt to get a room only deal, 40% off CSR for 10 nights at the end of May :banana: :cool1: :banana:

I've tried to pm those who were looking for the code but my post count as a newbie is too low, feel free to email me if you want some help :cool2:

Also no tickets and Dinner plans with the room only code, but the complaints over kids mean (mine 8 & 5) were putting me off that anyway. I'll just book character meals we want to do and stick with counter food for the rest

Cheers

Duncan

Thanks Knox,

I asked if I could add those on later without changing the room part. She said yes - but as people have so well established, I'm not counting on hearing the same answer from every CM!

But, now that you've raised the issue, I'll discuss with DH and call them back. Might just go ahead and add the package today.

Thanks!

Leah

Ya'll just don't know how happy I am right now!! :cool1: :cool1: I told the wonderful CM that she has made me have a magical day!!!

Leah:

I'm pretty sure that you weren't given correct info. But even a minimal package.. You can just say there is just one guest in the room and get a one day park hopper package.

And then you can add guests, park days and dining if you choose.. later on as you see fit.

The biggest difference is room only requires 1 nights deposit and the package will require 200$ deposit and full payment 45 days prior.

03-15-2007, 04:38 PM
Thanks, Knox,

They already have all 4 guests listed. I called DH - I think I'm going to switch over to the package thing tonight after DH comes home and we double check how many days of park tickets we want.

Thanks! Leah

Just paid off my reservation in full following advice from elsewhere on the board and asked again about packages, told by 2 different CM's it was adefinte NO if you have the room only discount, if I wanted dining and tickets then I must give up the room rate and rebook, which as I have $800 saved I wont be doing!

Off to find out where to get my cheapest park tickets now!

And I can't pm you either because I'm new too. Argh! I would really like to get some kind of discount but I am not having any luck at all. I'm staying at FQ and all of the public codes were already booked when I called :sad2:

Elsewhere in this thread is a link to Everything You Need to Know About 40% off..

That contains everything you need to know.. including a link to .. the ... CXXES.. :)

I caution you again however.. Most CMs are requiring a PIN at this point.

I was very lucky last night I got a discount. I'm pretty sure it's the 40% off since we're staying at POR with dining and 7 day PH in the beginning of November. I had the most wonderful CM every she was so helpful. I booked right away and am going to start making my payments so the balance isn't so high come Sept. Good luck tonight to anyone still trying!!!

I'm so jealous of you all that are getting the discount. I called several times and was never able to get it. I did learn my mom had a code for Peak Season.. But we're going during value season :(

My coworker used it yesterday.....after I have been nagging her about talking to her DH about going there for their anniversary ever since I heard that she had been blessed with the 40% off code in the mail. She was unable to book WL, but did book a WLV! I am so glad that she decided to go, she loves Disney, but her DH is a bit of a stick in the mud. Hopefully, a little pixie dust will do them both good.

I think that should be OK as long as your check-in date would STILL be one of the dates within the ranges for which the codes was applicable. I'd definitely ask before doing it tho. :)

Hey Glenda! I don't know you.. but I've seen you around on other sections of the DIS -- welcome to the discounts board!

As far as something else for September, I don't know anymore than you.. but I'd almost count on it. ;)

Hi Glendamax - We will be there the same time as you again, although maybe not at POR. We may change our resort to Pop because my parents are planning a trip to that resort. Think we'll be following the same touring plan this year?
