2011 Free Dining Bounceback...

[Paradise18]

I know the 2010 GP FD was just announced today, but I am curious how many people believe a free dining bounceback will be offered for 2011. If there is one, will you book it?

 

[CanadianPaco]

Absolutely I would book it. That's what I did last summer and got free dining DDP at ASMu. A $200 depoist that is refundable - yup, it's a good thing!

 

[DISNEYNY]

I will be booking it. We also booked BB last August and have TS FD at As Music. Sure saved me alot of headaches this year...and money too.

 

[ncmickeyluvr]

I will most definitely be booking!!! I foolishly didn't book it last year.......and have regretted it since!! It's been torture.

 

[MattMatts-Momma]

Yes, we booked bounceback for the last 2 years. It makes it alot less stressful, you know you already have FD and don't have to wait for it to be released.

WE HAVE DONE FD FOR THE LAST 5 YRS. MY ONLY QUESTION IS DO YOU THINK THEY WILL OFFER FD BOUNCEBACKS IN THE ROOMS SO WE CAN GET THE REGULAR DINING PLAN AT THE VALUES NEXT YEAR?

 

[Paradise18]

I am hoping there is a FD bounceback offer in the rooms when I am there is August. We went in May '09 so I couldn't book a bounceback for FD for Aug '10, but if there is one available for Aug '11 I am definitely going to book it. Just wondering if people believe there will be a FD bounceback offered for next year.

 

[disneyworldmomma]

I will book for sure and I feel like theres a good chance of it being offered Or atleast i'm hopein' and prayin'

 

[disneysmyhappyplace]

I will be booking the bounceback if offered. We have done so since '07 and do no miss the stress of WAITING for FD to be offered.. However, I still ended having to wait this year because DB decided to come and had to book him under DV FD. I have hope now that they will offer a bounceback now that free dining is out. I am sure it will be posted here first so I will continue to watch this thread

I don't know. I hope to keep my DDP at Pop each year with the bounceback. It would be a nice perk for booking each year. They do get to keep our $200 deposit for quite a long time.

Can you not book it if it comes with QSDP anyway and upgrade or are there restrictions on that with BB?

Quick question: If you book bounceback and need to change your dates, are you allowed to do so if there is availability for your amended dates and providing it is within the window of the offer?

I really want to try POP next year I see Squirrel is a fan! I figure I need to find out what I've been missing

 

[squirrel]

I can still book the bounceback, but I will probably have to pay to upgrade to the DDP.

I believe if I wanted to change the dates of my bounceback I can and still keep the Free Dining. I haven't had to change them.

Yes, I do like Pop. I have also stayed at the All-Star Movies and Music Resorts. What resorts have you been staying at 2Tiggies?

 

[MichaelColey]

I will definitely book a bounceback if it's available! Worst case, I have to cancel and get my $200 back. Best case, I can book ADRs 190 days out, have FD locked in, and don't have to worry about when FD is announced!

 

[hlr629]

When u book bb can u change the dates of ur stay , # of nights or resorts addtionaly rooms how does that work

 

[MichaelColey]

Yes, you can change nights or resorts just like any reservation, and from what I understand you can book one room per Disney adult on your existing stay.

 

[DisGirl23]

Wow! We're already talking about bouncebacks! I guess we need something new to discuss now, huh?
Yes, we booked bounceback last year and will do it again this year if it's available.

To the PP who questioned if you can still do DDP at values... my guess would be no. Last year we all got DDP at values until they extended it. This year, it went straight to QSDP. So, going by the current trend. It'll be QS for values.

To the PP who questioned changing or adding dates... when we got home last year, I called and added 2 more nights. A couple months later, I called and changed resorts. I think it all depends on if those spots are still available. Similar to those who booked rooms and hoped they'd be able to keep their resort choices and apply the FD.

 

[triplejen]

The point has already been made, but I'll chime in that I also booked FD on a bounceback last year, and over the past year called once to change my dates, once to change the resort, and one final time to add a couple of days.

We will definitely book the bounceback when we are there this year.

Are you sure you got your point across, lol?

I do regret not doing it last year but I didn't have the extra $200 to spend, now I will make sure I budget for it when I go in September, regardless. That way, I can start paying it down early once it is booked. Like everyone says you can cancel if something comes up as long as it is within the cancellation window. I don't want to go through this again if I don't have to.
