Whether or not this particular resort section is included in future offerings will depend on how well it sells without the promotion.

we are first timers to wdw, and would love FD. we are planning a trip for sept 2013, as we had to cancel our plans for a trip this year due to health reasons.
hoping that they release FD for sept 2013, as we are also planning a disney cruise, a visit to universal orlando and disneyland in the same trip, and it would help to save those $$$

I'm on the wish list for late August 2013, which is traditionally the time Disney does the FD deals. As you can see by my sig, that's when we usually go, and we like the low crowds PLUS free dining - makes for a perfect Disney trip!
If we can get free dining, we may do a 10-day trip at Pop Century - arrive a few days before the FD promo starts (usually the last week of the month) for a room-only reservation and then do a reservation for the rest of the time incorporating the FD. I'm really interested in doing the QS package.

will free dining be offered fall 2013?
I know it has been offered every year recently, but do you think that the Fantasyland expansion will keep Disney from needing to increase park attendance with the Free Dining Promotion in 2013? I will be planning my DD's 1st Disney trip and Free Dining would save us a lot of money. I am hoping it will be offered. Anyone have any insight?
Thank you

A) I'm sure that it will be offered in Fall 2013.
B) I know that it will not be offered in Fall 2013. C) I'm in no position to know what will be offered in Fall 2013. (This quiz will be half of your mid-term grade.)

And I'm sure Disney doesn't even know if they'll be offering free dining a year from now.
 OP, all any of us can say at this point is that they'll offer a discount if some resorts/room types aren't booking as well as they'd like, and they think a discount will encourage people to do it. Whether that'll be free dining or some other form of discount, no one here knows. |

Yes they will offer FD. WDW is addicted to discounts and the economy is still in the tank.

WDW doesn't offer free dining to keep people in the parks, they offer free dining to keep people in their resorts. Free dining is making them a fortune and has helped make previously very low crowd weeks into medium or higher crowd weeks. The calendar for school children and their families isn't going to change too drastically from year to year and that is what influences crowds and crowd seasons. I dont' see them ending the free dining promos anytime in the near future.

The parks don't have anything to do with it. It's about filling the resorts. Free dining is definitely the most effective discount they've ever come up with when it comes to getting guests to book a trip they wouldn't have taken otherwise, at a time that isn't the most popular, and pay full price for their rooms.
