2013 Free Dining Watch

[viajeromagico]

The "adult for a child price" is being mentioned for deals in OUTSIDE of this country. Guests from overseas get all kinds of different FD deals, so I would not expect that to be a US deal. If any change is made to the usual FD deal it might be the old "Kids stay play and dine for free" deal that has been offered in the past.

As for simultaneously running FD and RO deals, yes, they often run promotions that overlap with dates, but you can only choose one deal at a time. There is no stacking allowed. The exception being sometimes overseas guests can stack discounts because the airfare and extra cost associated with the distance they are coming from is factored in to what Disney feels is necessary to get them to come to the parks. That is why overseas guests can get 14 and 21 day passes, and we in the US cannot.

Sorry to contradict you but promotions in Latin America always coincide with ones in the U.S. . I understand that promotions in Europe are different, but not those from Latin America.
Im sure because im from Argentina and i went the past 4 years to WDW with the same promotions.
if this rumor is confirmed :
value hotel packages Would Have the quick plan with "adult for a child price"
moderate or higher packages hotels, would have standard plan with "adult for a child price"
All upgrades will require the payment of the real difference in adult costs Between plans (for example, between standard and quick the difference would be approximately U $ S 18, likewise Between Standard and deluxe)
Sorry for my poor english

No need to apologize for your English. There are people that have lived in America their whole lives that have trouble writing in English. Interesting about Argentina getting the same deals as US. Even Canadians get different deals than the US and they don't have to cross any oceans like the Europeans do.

Are there any current offers available where you are from? I know that Canadians can still book the fall/winter free dining until Dec. 13.

So, if we wanted to upgrade from Regular to Deluxe on the Adult-for-Child-Price plan, we would have to pay the $44 per day per person IN ADDITION to the price of the Child's dining plan ($17)?

In that case, yeah free dining IS better!

In any case, here's hoping for something soon!

You make me use the google translate

Yes, we can too still book this offer and i know that it is over in US. The other promotion we have is the same RO for november and december.
The dates of booking can change (in favor of Latin America Travel Agents ussually) but never we had a diferent kind promotion or worst promotions.
In fact we can book direct from the US web site, so if you get free dining i can get it too.
With That in mind it is hard to think to launch a limited promotion for Latin America and another one in the U.S. with the dining plan free (in that case every Latin American Visitor would hire directly promoting U.S. and not the other one)
At least the last four years always happend in that way.

I can not help again apologize for my English
Hope I'm not being rude in my language (not my intention)

You are not being rude at all. Very polite.

I don't think this question was asked before, I haven't seen it anyway:
If free dining is advertised for september 2013, most likely for AOA it will be the fast food package. If we wish to get the regular dining package can we get the free dining and just upgrade it? Pay the difference? Would it be worth it?

Yes, you can upgrade and pay the difference. We did this last February. We stayed at ASMu with the free quick service plan and paid the difference to upgrade to the regular plan. For us it was worth it.
