This might be a bit OT:

For CM/ FF reservations, can you link it to MDE and get MB? My friend is a CM in Asia and is looking to get a CM room for the trip but not sure if the ressie is MB eligible so that they could book their FP+ in advance. Thanks for any inputs!

Having just used a FF reservation, I can say "yes" based on my experience -- you should expect to receive Magic Bands and use My Disney Experience.

So can anyone with access to the hub check and see if there is access for 50% off August 14-15 at yacht or beach club or sept 10-11 for any resort? Any discounted dining plans? We are a family of 5+1 little guy, so cast member cannot stay with us

You really should ask the cast member to check for you.

A friend has offered us a F/F discount for January. Right now it looks like it is only about 25% for moderate. Can I assume this would get better closer to our dates? Also, what would happen if the friend left their job before our trip? I have no indication that this will be happening, but you never know. Would we be stuck paying rack rate for our room?

Anyone know if the 50% off has been extended passed August 15th yet?

I checked this past Sunday and nothing has been extended yet. They told me to check back closer to the 15th.

There are certain resorts that have a discount through Sept. 5th

Hi KerryCM, you mention that certain resorts have discounts through Sept 5th. Is this the CM discount that is 50%off room rate and discounted dining plan that runs until 8/15? If so what are the resorts that are offering it? Thks

Saratoga Springs Au.9th to Sept. 5th
Animal Kingdom Lodge Aug. 30th to Sept 5th
Boardwalk Inn Aug. 30th to Sept. 5th
That is all for now. I was hoping for the 3rd to 10th of September!

Our trip dates are 9/27 - 10/4. My cast member friend says that she can't find rates or book a room for those dates until after August 15th. She's pretty new - is she right about this?

Are F&F bookings available for Christmas week? Could anyone tell me what the percentage discount range is during that time if they still have the discounts over Christmas?

my dates are 9/26-10/3 and my cousin booked for me about a month or so ago. just waiting passed 8/15 for a possible 50% discount instead of 40% which is what it is now

Anyone know if there is a way to get a fastpass+ with a comp ticket. CM will be using one to get a friend into the parks but everyone else in the room has AP's. We want to make our FP+ for everyone but wasn't sure if that was possible with the comp tkt. Thanks.

Any news of extend the discount 50% and dining plan discount beyond August 15. I have a reservation for Sept 3-7 that my friend did for me but normally I alert him in order for him to call to apply any new discount.

With an existing reservation made by a cast member/employee, I was able to call myself and modify it from one discount (40% off) to another (50% off). In that scenario, the cast member/employee didn't need to do it for me. Other changes, such as switching from a room only to a package, did require the employee to call.

I will try by calling. Last year I was able to apply the 50% by calling but for May I was required that the CM call. Thanks for the feedback!
