How did free dining work last year?

I remember that each resort category got a different free dining plan, but I don't remember what the moderate and deluxe resorts got. Did they both get the regular dining plan, or did the deluxe resorts get deluxe dining plan? I know the value got free counter service plan, right?

I also know that it could be completely different this year! :goodvibes

actually everyone got the basic dining plan. i think some people have gotten pin codes for this fall that has quick service dining plan for values. i've never heard of free deluxe dining though.

Depends on whether you're talking about the first public free dining offer (for August/September) or the second public free dining offer (for October-December). The first offer was the basic dining plan free for all reservations, regardless of the resort level. The second offer was free quick service dining for value resorts, free basic dining for moderates or deluxes.

Deluxe dining has never been offered completely free at any level, but the US offers allowed upgrading for the difference between the free plan and the deluxe plan.
