or do you ssee any discounts for June 30th-July 7th?

lookiung to go both those dates with atleast some sort of discount!

thnx

The current Visa offer (available to public on 1/3) covers your march - april dates. It is not a huge savings but it is a savings. All you have to do is call.

Yeah at least with QSDP you can upgrade to the DDP.

mommymanda · 12-31-2012, 06:21 PM

I was hoping for end of August FD or a good discount. We were looking at either moderate with FD DDP or a value with the upgrade. No way we can go moderate AND upgrade

Grandmatoniko · 12-31-2012, 06:57 PM

Oh I hope not

I was hoping for a fd code for values so we could swing a trip. We have 8 and can't go this year unless we do value. Fingers crossed for good news!!! But thanks for the heads up so I don't get my hopes up too much.

Lees3rwe · 12-31-2012, 07:17 PM

do you think they will still send pins with free dining for Values?
I am tempted to book our early June trip with the discount on Jan. 3, but I was really hoping we would get a free dining pin.

for values, I see clouds in the horizon

, sorry for that, and let´s celebrate the New Year with our beloved ones. The most magical and happy new year for all of you

Thanks for the heads up danny25

. I worry that they'll start having FD only for the days of the discount and not allow you to check in on the last day of the discount to cover your entire stay. I know the DDP is a better value than QSDP, but I would actually like that only because then our daily plans wouldn't be around dining reservations all the time.

Does Disney really think the economy is going to get better any time soon??
Its like they don't want to entice the public to come visit.....prices keep going up and they are offering less ...free dining makes it possible for families to do the character meals which they otherwise could not afford..

I just don't get it????

ADisneyQueen · 12-31-2012, 08:39 PM

Danny, do you know if there is a possibility of some discounts for early/mid August?

AuroraRora · 12-31-2012, 09:19 PM

I wonder if Values will be included in Bounceback offers for FD, or if it's going to be completely eliminated

ADisneyQueen · 12-31-2012, 09:27 PM

I think they are really counting on the expansion of fantasyland to draw in a lot of visitors with small or no discounts. We'll see how it goes. If they don't get their rooms filled up, they may put out more discounts later. I'm really curious if many will book for summer.

That's a really good point. Let's say they don't really do any good GP discounts and the rooms book up...win for Disney. Let's say they don't do any good GP discounts and they book some rooms but still have a lot open then they can release a lot of PIN codes to fill up the vacancy. I'm sure there will be a lot of people who will book if they get a PIN code who wanted to book but couldn't without the discounts...fill up the rooms but with less discounts so still a win for Disney.

BebopBaloo · 12-31-2012, 10:08 PM

Oh bother...

I do appreciate the info though. Not going to get too discouraged yet, but I'm glad to know what to possibly expect.

Happy New Year to you Danny!
