2010 Fall Dining for DVISA Is Out (See FIRST page)'

[pinkle]

okay value is QD so you upgraded......is moderate regularDP

question answere...now should i upgrade resort or plan???

 

[disneyfanUSA]

So, if we are annual pass holders - we have to buy tickets?

Yes, & and folks are saying it's a 2 or 3 day ticket requirement. I booked bounceback last year & had to buy a 1 day ticket. I can deal with a one day ticket, but 2 or 3 is getting a little pricey!!!

I am happy for all DVisa cardholders, but sad for the rest of us that have to wait.

Please let it be Monday please let it be Monday

Can anyone find out for us? Please.....

I second that! Although I am so happy for the Visa holders, I am a bit worried that Pop will sell out by the time that the GP gets the offer, when ever that is. Guess I'd better start rethinking an alternative plan.

We just booked 10 days at POR Aug19-30. CM told us we saved over 2100.00 for our family of 5! I'm so excited!! Thanks to all who posted info on the free dining.

I am so happy for everyone!! It pays to be patient..

 

[chocovrdmicears]

Pop will be available this afternoon. The CM told me that POP always sells out first, but said as long as you call in the next 2-3 days, you'll be fine.

Thanks...but that won't help those of us who don't have a DVISA and can't call in the next 2-3 days.

Just got off the phone, it is a 2 day ticket per person for the DVisa offer. We are AP holders, but we will just save those for later. Still saves a bunch!

I was on hold for 40 minutes before speaking with a CM. He immediately knew what I was calling about. Was able to book Pref Room at Pop with free QS Dining Plan. WOOHOO

Thank you to and the DIS peeps for this valuable info.

Typically Pop has lasted WELL into the GP offer and there have been some folks in the past who insist the DVISA offer and the GP offer are different room inventories for each offer.

Chin up.

Just booked the POP with DDP (had to upgrade), but saved over $500.00. While I was on the phone I got my MNSSHP tickets for Oct 1st. Now we just have to wait until September 30th for our vacation!!!

I'm working out back-up / alternative plans in case we cannot get CSR after all.

There are still many of us out there with you. You are not alone.

So I was on this board since 4:30 AM CT waiting for the web-site to get updated only to realize at 6:15 AM that you guys were already posting here that the dining was out. I called and my phone provider decided to play a cruel joke on me. The signal kept fading and I couldn't even get through the atomated system. I freaked

I grabbed my close and went to work immediately because I knew I can have access to a land line there. Got there super early and called at 7AM CT. Was on hold for not even 5 minutes.

Here's what CM told me as far as free dining promotion goes.
They say it is Free Regular Dining for value resorts with a $30 upgrade to DDP.
I got all excited at first and had him put me for regular dining. He gave me a total and it seemed OK. After I hung up and backed the numbers out, there was a $10 upgrade charge for DP.

Sooooo...they might tell you that DP is free for Values, but they will still add the price difference for the upgrade. So keep that in mind

 

[princess&her4princes]

It really depends on the family...it was for our family of 4(we are 5 but baby doesn't count). We are also going for 12days. You have to run the numbers. Go to Disney and put in just adults for the trip dates with QS or if staying in a mod/deluxe put in DDP and then add(yourself)$2/day for each kid. HTH

Thank you!!!

 

[KELLY]

Yes....I didn't think it was possible but the CM was very nice and said that actually it was a better deal to leave the one room with me and my 3 little ones as it was already booked (Kids stay, play and dine for free, and 1 adult paying for the QSDP). It was a bit over 100.00 difference....so I said okay. I changed my other room since it is my husband and 2 'disney adult' kids LOL and it saved us around 400.00....we had to add a day to our tickets since we only had 1 day base and the minimum for this deal is a 2 day base.

You can upgrade both of the rooms tickets. I just wanted to make sure I knew what you booked. We only have a one day base ticket with our bounceback FD. I went and added a night to our reservation and asked about the ticket situation. We have tons of tickets left over we want to use water park ect. But with being there for 10 days for the extra 500.00 we were thinking of just adding a 10 MYW base ticket so I aksed and she told me I just had to call to add it.

Glad your cm was so helpful. Did you stick with the QSDP?

 

[Sugar Jones]

There are still many of us out there with you. You are not alone.

Does anyone else think that they allot so many rooms for Disney Visa holders and keep some back for the GP when that promotion is released? I would think that is what they do. So if POP sells out for Disney Visa holders, I think come public offer time there will be a new set of rooms available for that.

 

[2littleprincesses]

Only on hold for 7 minutes. Got in no problem FD QSDP with upgrade to DDP at ASMu. Good luck to everyone!!!

 

[DaniB]

While I was on the phone I got my MNSSHP tickets for Oct 1st.

Do MNSSHP tickets typically sell-out?

We're undecided whether to go or not yet. Sept 14th and 18th are the only good dates for us.

And since the 14th is our arrival date, and we have to be up at 4:30/5am to catch a 7am flight - not so sure we want to go that date..

Oh I sure hope so!! I don't want to be stressing about booking pop all weekend!

okay value is QD so you upgraded......is moderate regularDP

correct, vale is QD, but it was cheaper for us to ugrade the dining then upgrade to a moderate. Plus we love Pop and the kids really enjoy it, so I didn't want to ugrade to a moderate.
