It's Mar 1 - - any breaking news on discounts?

[TheLittleRoo]

I'm just hoping that Disney might offer some news about Sept/Oct discounts or free dining to insiders today.... which usually cascades to the public a few weeks later.. (that'd be me!)

Thanks!

Nothing here! I've been checking with Disney Visa and they have nothin. Will keep my fingers crossed for you!

I was looking too! The only thing I found was Disney has posted hours for Sept. but everything is not finished. No parades mentioned and I can't figure out which emh are morning and evening. I was thinking about calling. Also I was wondering about emh for preschoolers anyone know?

I'm not sure what exactly you are asking but under age 3 are allowed in with EMH if they are staying with you on property. I know MK has almost all of Fantasyland open with EMH also so that would definitely appeal to the preschooler.

I'm sure this doesn't mean anything but I was just on expedia and all disney hotels for July and August are staying you can not book this hotel for these dates. Weird. I checked AAA and things seem normal there. I am at work and I can't get on the Disney site.

Is there special days for this? When? What are the hours?

I think it will more likely be the end of March for new code and offers. I am betting on free dining being offered again as there are so many excellent offers at offsite resort they seem to be trying to compete for this timescale. If free dining or AP rates dont come out there are some bargain resort offer offsite for Aug/September.

Free dining was offered to Disney Visa Cardholders last year on April 1st, and to the general public a few days later.

They reeled me in with 40% off and they will reel me in again if they offer free dining.

She was referring to EMH for the little tykes in Fantasyland. They had it last year in September. The MK was open an hour early just in Fantasyland for preschoolers. Characters would ride the rides with the kids. I haven't heard if they're doing it this year. I do know they're doing the Little Ones Travel Time this September and October for Playhouse Disney in Concert with the Doodlebops, Johnny and the Sprites and Dan Zanes.

I'm also hoping for free dining but if they don't offer it, at least I got the 40% off, so I won't complain.

I know I saw reference to the dates of the Preschool EMH somewhere. I want to say that it was on the Disney website when I went to look at the September hours. I think I clicked on one of the days of September by accident and it brought me to another page and I think the dates were listed there. I didn't really read it in detail because our kids won't be with us in Sept-Oct. HTH and that you can find what I was reading. I will try to find it again if I can.

UGH I have looked back all over that website and I can't find where I saw the dates. I will keep trying

If it helps, the EMH's for little ones is called "Magical Beginnings" (two n's or one?- well you get the idea).

Hi, all. Just recently found this board and after reading the posts for a few days, I feel like I’ve found long lost kin!

Teentoddlermom, exactly how do you get this info from Disney Visa? I’ve been a cardholder from the beginning and don’t remember seeing anything from them about free dining the past two years (although I admit I don’t use my card too much). Would I need to register on the Chase/Disney website? Any and all info appreciated. Much thanks for the assistance.

 

[WDW1st-timers]

I've been searching all over and I haven't found any different offers than the ones that are out there.

 

[teentoddlermom]

Countingthedays, Disney Visa is a bit slow..... I got the info on the DIS first. Keep checking the message boards daily and you'll be ok...Maybe subscribe to the codes and rates thread.

 

[countingthedays]

Thanks so much for the info.

Now that I've found the DISboards, of course I check daily

i'll be soooo sad if they dun have free dining this year...It's the only reason why we went last 2 years...
