Anyone else having problems booking ADRs with the +10 this morning?

I just booked 4 rooms at POP for Dec 19-28! No issues! I'm so excited! I don't know whether to laugh or cry! I'm so glad I just happened to wake up at 2:00 AM. Now I have to try to go back to sleep! Yeah, like that's going to be easy!!

What a wonderful thing to wake up to---Free Dining going live! I was able to modify Online. We already had Park Hoppers because my Husband and I had wanted to do it our last 2 Trips. Like others, the email confirmation says "Quick Service Dining", but MDE says "Free Dining" with the Table & Counter Service. Probably just a glitch or typo in the emails.

So glad I found these Boards a few years back. And, I don't care that my Husband thinks I'm crazy for stalking every site about Disney. I'm so not sorry!

I had no trouble up untill you get to the "payment part" where I put my deposit down already and it basically says i need to pay my trip in full, because thats the only option it will accept. Guess im calling...

I still can't believe they are doing free dining over Christmas, that is awesome

good morning! I have the modify button and can access it but only the standard pricing is available. No free dining. When i booked originally I booked my room separate from my tickets but they were purchased from Disney and they are linked to MDE. I know I need to add the park hopper to be able to get free dining. Is this something I have to call and do and then will be able to add free dining? I feel so complicated LOL!

Thanks so much!!!!! Should I still call to confirm? if I do need to call can I do it tomorrow morning after work ? I so need to sleep right now So I can take care of my patients tonight. This is the 1st time I am booking a trip to Disney on my own. We've been tons of times but always with our parents.

You can call later, but I think with all of us having the same "glitch" I wouldn't even worry about it. QS wasn't even a choice when choosing a dining plan for mods and deluxe.

Got the dates we wanted, 10/30-11/4, woohoo! Had to pay a little extra, Pirate Room at CBR, as it appears the only thing they opened in October at CBR was the Pirate Rooms. Plenty of regular availability on Standards but just none under the package, Nothing at CSR either. The earliest in OCT/NOV it looked like anything less expensive was available was if we waited until 11/9 then there were pool views at CBR for a couple hundred less than the Pirate room. The cheapest thing I found at CSR during Oct or starting 11/8, 9 or 10 was over a $1000 MORE than what I booked at CBR. Looks like Disney decided during the late fall to only open up the more expensive rooms to the package.

Well all, I booked Yacht Club with a 30% RO discount. Just a quickie weekend trip. It was going to be an additional $1000 to add a night and PH to get FD. Not worth it, obviously. Plus I used my extra money in my DVA to book it so it feels like it was free! lol. Congrats to everyone getting what they wanted and good luck to those still trying! It's been a blast! Until next year!

Yup, I changed our thanksgiving date back 1 day, and we will have it all thanksgiving week now too

I just called 0800 16 90 730 (UK) as I'm in London / (407) 939-1936 to get free dining plan added to my reservation. Spent ages on hold then she said it couldn't be a Disney offer as she wasn't aware of it. HELP!

 

[5kidsmommy]

When I look at the price breakdown per day, it's only giving the 25% discount for our first two days, remainder is at rack rate.

Oh no! That seems odd. I guess I would call.

 

[wdw4rfam]

If you are having payment error, get on a laptop, it's a glitch with safari.

 

[Honeybee83]

Can we upgrade the dining plan at anytime or do you think it has to be done now?

I'm sorry. I read this wrong. I thought you were asking if you needed to book FD now, not whether you could just upgrade the already booked FD plan. I need more sleep.

 

[DisMama5]

Is anyone having trouble with POP? We are booked thru a travel agent and always have and she's always snagged us the deal and where we wanted but I'm nervous this year more then in the past after reading some posts...

 

[hurricane]

Just booked a room for 2 at POP with free dining (but upgraded to TS) in Decmeber. SOOOOOO EXCITED!!!

Do not use the safari browser on ipad! Use chrome. You'll get an error on the final check out on safari. Thanks to the dis for the tip. I got our cabin with free dining! Package total went up the ticket price change which for me was about $60 since I already had park hoppers.

Interesting because Safari was the only browser I could get it to work on! Everything seems fine in MDE...
