2016 Free Dining Watch ~ Part 2

[CaliTex]

Shut out. Not valid at POR for my dates. Oh well - will now have to keep an eye out for fall room discount offer. Last year those came out mid-July.

I'm sorry you weren't able to book POR. BUT--take heart--we have been able to get FD at POR in December, under the Fall Offers for three years. I always booked in July.

We aren't staying there this year, so you can have "our" room.

I love reading all the comments on the Disney Dining Facebook page... so many negative nancy's saying "don't you people know it's a scam and you aren't saving anything?" Fools I say. They are missing out! lol

Is BOG still considered quick service for lunch?

 

[RigatoniFeline]

Thank you everyone for all of your help! I booked at 4:21 and I'm almost a little disappointed that my TA was able to book for me at 9. I wanted all of the glory. lol.

I have the opportunity to now take a nap yet I still can't quit this thread.

Yes!

What time did all this actually go live? I woke up at 2:10 MDT without an alarm, decided to check since I was awake anyway, and there it was. I was able to book our first choice which was POP Standard with a RO discount at the end of October and just completed all my ADRs even though no FD for us.

Did everyone else get what they were hoping for?

I saw it at 4:03 EST so right around 4 EST it seems.

Yep, mine has shown this for both of my kid's tickets for a few days now. They are 3 and 8. Weird.

Thanks!! I didn't want to call and block the lines for someone else who may be trying to book. I know I've had other MDE errors that eventually resolved themselves, but I was wondering if this would impact anything if it stays. I'll 'let it goooooo' for now.

It went live a few minutes after 4 am EDT. So you had very good timing!

Could anyone get a standard room at CBR for Oct or Nov? Just curious.

I did. 11/26-12/3 standard CBR, booked around 4:30 this morning.

 

[Minnieloves4]

I had to change my dates in order to get FD but i got 2 rooms at POP for Nov 15-19. Have to do a spilt stay from Nov 13-15. Now i can get a good night rest. Hope everyone gets what they wanted.

Got our package changed at 307am! Saved us about $500 off our current package price

 

[Jadyreen1282]

I had the ph and WP&M already booked on my package, we like to do both

Us too. It wouldn't be Disney without the long fall of Summit Plummet or getting knocked on our rears in the wave of TL.

I have been trying for almost three hours and can't get through. I ended up booking a new Reservation online but am nervous that my existing dining reservations won't carry over. Anyone ever done that?

 

[KearneyFam02]

I was able to book my in-laws a reservation about 20 minutes ago online still at CBR.

It's not just about the savings. Do they not understand how magical it is on vacation to not look at prices when ordering or not budgeting for character meals! Maybe their millionaires!!! Hahahaha Less guests taking it from us who appreciate it!! I'm still happy dancing!!

 

[woodynjessiesmomma]

What discount did you get for October? When I called she said there wasn't anything available

I got the room only 20% discount for the Cabins October 18th-21st. Multiple attempts to modify online and call and finally was able to modify online. Good luck!

 

[DennisandAngel]

Yes!

And I'm dancing again!!

 

[monorailrabbit]

I'm not even booking a vacation but I just like seeing the excitement here...keep trying. Did you try a different browser by chance?

Just so you know, I just refreshed and a standard room for your dates is still there at CBR! It's almost tempting me though to book it haha (don't worry)!!

Oh my gosh we got it!!!!!! Thank you so much!!! We got the kindest CM ever!! We are going for DH's birthday. He is over the moon!!!

You will be fine. Dining isnt linked to your package reservation.

You technically dont even need a resort reservation to make dining reservation. It just lets you book a bit farther out versus day by day. You can cancel your old reservation and all of those reservations will stay in your account for dining.

Your ADRs are linked to your MDE account
Not your hotel reservation
