I got something yesterday but it was not for free dining and I am also a Disney Visa card holder. Are you sure it was free dining?

Just re read it and I have not worked out the math but it says Stay, Play and Dine. Sometimes these are not "true" free dining. This was the sample on the side.

I think the OP probably booked the Stay Eat and Play Promo.

It's not free dining! It's room only discount

 

[aaarcher86]

Disney Visa is NOT doing early Visa free dining bookings. They are doing a room discount and a stay/play/dine package discount that is almost as much as FD.

CMs have said free dining will be out to the public on the 10th. Others think this new deal is replacing free dining.

We won't know until the 10th.

It's not free dining! It's room only discount

Right!

Check out the two deals on the Disney visa site:
http://www.disneyrewards.com/offers

The first one is the one that is discounted dining (not free) and will become available for the general public on 10/10. They're calling it "A fantastic vacation for kids of all ages" because adults (ages 10 and up) will pay the kids price for dining and park tickets. For those staying at value resorts (except AofA) you get the QSDP at the kids price, for those at moderate or deluxe resorts you get the regular DP at the kids price. If you choose to upgrade you have to pay the normal upgrade price. There is no dining discount for kids, so how good a deal this is really depends on how many adults in your party. My kids are getting older, so this is a good deal for us.

Disney isn't explaining the details on this deal, but there's another thread discussing it: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=3002641&highlight=art+of+animation and folks agree that this is the discount.

Well, you are the ONLY person I have heard to receive Free Dining for 2013 besides BB. Did you have a PIN?

If the promotion is for Jan 2-Mar 7 will I be able to have it applied to the part of my trip that is within these dates? My dates are Dec 29-Jan 7. If that's not possible, should I call and try to split my reservation so that the 2nd portion starts on Jan 2?

Thanks!
