Disney Visa Discount out - confirmed with WDW

[cappygirl]

Just got off the phone with disney - I only asked about the discount for deluxe and I was told it's 35%. Just thought I'd share in case anyone else was wondering the same thing.

I wish they let canadians have this visa

Can someone with the Disney visa book a room for themselves and another party? Does it work like receiving a pin meaning you can apply the discount to more than one ressie? Also does the whole trip need to be put on the card or is that only to get the 0% financing?

Thanks for the info!
I'm gonna do the math but I think free dining would be a better discount...

When I called, POFQ is 5% off, CSR is 25% off and WL was 25% off also. I didn't ask about other resorts.

Booked March 4 - 11
POR Standard View Royal Guest Room
2 adults, 1 child
8 day base park tickets
Plus dining plan
$2,995.15.

Saved $688.17 based on website rates.

Not as good as free dining (which would be a little over an $200 additional savings), but I'll take it!

In the past you have been able to book mulitple rooms with the offer, but since this hasn't been released to anyone yet except via word from phone CM's I don't know the details of the offer. You have to pay for at least the deposit with a Disney visa to get the deal.

Thank you.

I just changed my AAA discount at AoA LM room only to the Disney Visa (almost free dining) package at Pop. There are actually 2 different ways to go with the Visa offer...room only OR a discounted package with dining. The gentleman that helped me described the package as something they've never done before since it's a discount on the whole package. He also said it's like "almost free dining". It sounds like it may be the "adults eat and play for the price of kids" that's been discussed here in the past few days. It does save me almost $600 over rack rate, so I'm pleased with it.
January 5 - 11
3 adults
Pop Century - Standard view
7 Day base tickets
Disney Dining Plan - not QS (he quoted me the price w/upgrade which I wanted)
Total package is $2,096.34
Good luck everyone!

We booked a package, how do we figure out what portion of the package is "room only" so I can calculate how much the discount would be?? We're going 2/8 through 2/16 and staying at the CR TPV.

There is no way to know if Disney will even offer free dining for this time frame. Free dining originally was only offered in the hurricaine season - late Aug & Sept. They have offered it at other times the last few years. But that doesn't mean they will continue to offer it. Many years they have offered kids promos early in the year: Kids stay & play free etc. Disney uses what ever promo they think will fill their rooms.

Mousesavers has a list of historical discount release dates if you want to check it out:

Best advice is if you see a discount that will work for you, book it. You can always try to change to a different promo if one is offered.

The gentleman that helped me explained that you can go with room only OR a discounted package that includes dining. He said that this discounting of a whole package is something they've never done before. You can go to the DW site and price a rack rate package and see the difference between what your package costs and rack rate package.

How many are in your party (adult/kids under 10) and what was your final price? I can figure out the discount given if you have that. I've called and spoke with them this morning and this is the first I've heard of this. The ones I talked to can make it a package but its till just a discount on the room only portion.

I guess that would help... 3 adults and total package was $2,097.34. The gentleman I spoke with was very clear in stating that this is a type of package that they've never done before. A discount on the total package. He said there are 2 different specials...a room only and this "new" discounted package, which gives a certain percentage off when you book resort, dining and tickets. I have no idea if it's just Disney wanting to present this special differently, but it sounds like it could be the promotion that's been talked about from Latin America where the "adults eat and play like kids". Anyway you look at it it's a discount that's A LOT better than the AAA I had.
