Minimum number of nights for FD?

[we3travellers]

Does anyone remember minimum number of nights required for FD last fall? I am just about to book Sep 20 - 29, all at room discount, 4 nts POR and 5 NTS YC CL. I believe it was 5 nts for FD and I am willing to change to 5 POR and 4 YC CL for FD for our POR stay. Current SPD is 6 nts, which I am NOT willing to do. TIA

3 nights minimum, 14 nights maximum.

That is what it has always been. If you see anything else like 5 nights or 6 nights, that is an example used for advertising. The same may be true for the Stay Play and Dine.

Your question made me curious, so I went to the Disney website to see what the "truth" might be. I was able to select a 3-night, 4-night, or a 5-night stay with the SPD promotion. I checked the total price of the 3-night against just a regular, no promotion reservation, and it was definitely cheaper. So you can do less than the advertised amount of days on SPD.

Thank you both for your reply! Very interesting! I guess I am one of those suckers that doesn't question. I just think what you see is what you get. On the good side, I will keep 4 nts POR and maybe get FD later.

I feel for ya. I find it hard to interpret what's on Disney's site, which seems hard to get policy details from. But these Boards have everything, including the nuts and bolts, or at least, where to find the info online. Keep your questions coming, get familiar with the stickies at the top of each Forum, and you will probably have all your questions answered. Using online info, I can accurately figure out my entire WDW stay down to the last $1.50 or so (besides tips and fuel). Somehow there's always a tiny amount that I can't track down.
