    Visiting in July vs June

    There will be large tour groups in July and August. That being said, we typically go those two months because of school schedules, so we are prepared for the special challenges that come with those groups. We always enjoy ourselves though!

    Port Orleans Riverside Q&A Thread 2013, Part One [Thread now FULL and closed]

    Ok, since I've seen so many folks faxing requests in, I have a question: is it really recommended that we send a fax with an official room request? I did online check in (we have a preferred room booked), and special requested water view, but I'm pretty flexible. Since we are staying in a...

    POR Review 9/28 to 10/5

    Thanks for posting this! We are headed to POR in Feb so I can run the princess 1/2 - so everything you said about the race is right up my alley! Quick question - how was the transportation handled b/t POR and WWoS? Just wondering for packet pick-up and the chances of us being able to go to AK...

    *** Upcoming 2013 Jan to March Disney Discount Offer : Details ***

    The current promotion isn't free dining, it is a discounted price of adult tickets if you buy myw tickets and dining together. With an AP, I don't know how you would apply that. There is a RO discount (varies by resort) as well, so you can still take advantage of a promotion between Jan-March...

    *** Upcoming 2013 Jan to March Disney Discount Offer : Details ***

    Looks like you are applying the 35% to the total cost of the vacation, not to the room rate. the 35% is for RO. If you are looking at taking advantage of the RO discount, price out what rack rate is for the 10 days you are looking at at POLY, then take 35% off of that. The rest (dining...

    *** Upcoming 2013 Jan to March Disney Discount Offer : Details ***

    It might not be a 25% discount for the room you are looking at. Just tell the CM that you want to price out a few other value resorts. Ask her specifically what % discount you are getting. HTH!! pixiedust:

    *** New Official February 2013 Thread ***

    I had an existing reservation, and was able to "apply the discount" (we did play/stay/dine) to it. We are staying at POR 2/22-3/2. The RO discount for POR was 30% - and at the time I called they only were doing Royal Rooms. It pays to call and find out from the CM. I called yesterday...

    *** Upcoming 2013 Jan to March Disney Discount Offer : Details ***

    I would just talk to the CM when you call. The RO discount for POR is 30%, I think. I've heard as low as 5% though. I think it depends on the amount of rooms they have allocated for the promotion during your trip dates. In all, we saved a greater percentage of money with the package deal than...

    Did they make an error?

    This is exactly why when I called to "apply the discount" to my current reservation, I was prepared to be told that I might have to change resorts, etc. Fortunately, I was in a preferred room at POR, and the package discount was available for my dates and room. I spoke with the CM for a long...

    ? - anyone notified by Chase re: discount

    I never got an email from Chase regarding the discount. Thankfully, I'm a loyal DIS stalker and got my information from here :rotfl: I'm a little bit discouraged in general when it comes to discounts because I've never received a PIN, or received an email for Disney Chase Visa members (only...

    2013 Free Dining Watch

    We are staying for 8 nights, and the discount basically gives us 5 of those days free dining. It seems similar to a discount I saw on the threads being offered internationally, where adults are paying kid price for dining. Doing the math, it still stacks up to a better discount than the RO for...

    2013 Free Dining Watch

    It's 30% off RO rate - but the dates we are going, it's only for the Royal Rooms. I would double check if your dates are available for other rooms.

    February 2013 Discount Watch

    Woo Hoo! These posts just made my day. Applied the play/stay/dine discount using my Disney Visa to my current reservation at POR - saved "close" to free dining (amounted to about 5 days of free dining, we are staying 8 nights). So, not FD, but close enough I'll take it! According to the CM...
