2018 Bounce Back released today!!

[scrappinginontario]

Has anyone asked what kind of dining plan is included with the valuevresorts? It's not normally published, only available when asked.

 

[Jadyreen1282]

Wow. I apologize for my negativity earlier. I really had no faith. I stand happily corrected.

 

[PinkMagnolia]

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this info! This has made my day!!!!!
SO HAPPY that it was finally announced!!!!

 

[scrappinginontario]

Just called (twice ) and confirmed that value resorts include free Quick Service dining plan that can be upgraded to the Disney Dining Plan (or Deluxe Dining Plan) for an additional cost.

 

[PinkMagnolia]

Seriously? Would she just call the normal reservation line and give them her confirmation number from her stay?

I've heard several times as well that you can book from home (or elsewhere) the day that you check out. Get her to call the number above ASAP tonight!!!

This is fantastic news!!! I was worried there may be changes to the value category!

Did you think to ask if the Mods are Regular DDP or are they also QSDP?

I'm curious to this as well.

Does anyone know if they released room only bounce back offer as well or just Free dine?

They do offer room bounce back offers but those don't usually start till November 1 arrivals

 

[babydoll65]

Value resorts are included in this too even though a lot of times the pamphlet doesn't show it. Art of animation suites, Pop Century, All-Star sports and all-star music will get free quick service dining with the option to upgrade the usual little mermaid rooms and all star movies are excluded

I confirmed with both calls that Moderate resorts would get the QSDP.

Does this mean that the free dining includes an alcoholic beverage (as the 2018 dining plans show)? Even if it's a QS?

 

[Disneylover99]

Wow! All of August is included! I'm going to have trouble deciding my dates!

Good problem to have

Yes, I just checked the Disney website. A person (21 and over) is eligible to 1 alcoholic beverage with each QS or TS credit.

Out of curiosity, what is the usually deadline to book the free dining Bounceback? We are checking-in on November 24

 

[kandb]

FYI - trying to book late December but can't because it's more than 500 days. Needed 12/22 to 12/27.

Making check-in for 12/18 for now and will call back to change dates next week.

Mods get quick service. Deluxe get basic dining plan.

Quoted 3900 and change for 5 nights, four adults at CSR. Haven't done the math yet.

That seems high for a moderate and when you are only getting quick service. "Free dining" has really gone down hill.

 

[scrappinginontario]

I'm not sure currently @pixie_mtl. I know in 2012 we booked mid-November for the following fall but that was a long time ago. Much could have changed between then and now.

Pretty accurate I would guess. I priced out a 6 night with 5 day passes at a moderate for friends tonight. 3A, 1C and came up with a price of $3500 for them. Change an adult for a child and high season for park tickets and resort room pricing and I think they're bang on.

Remember, if attempting to price things out online to get an idea of the cost before heading to WDW, you need to add in the PH option that jumps the price quite a bit.

I do agree though @kandb, that the value of 'free dining' is not great at the moderates. I've always loved Pop and now that they have queen beds and coffee makers, it's even more enticing! The trip I priced out was $600 more for the exact same trip to stay at a moderate resort compared to Pop!!

So does this mean if we use our TS credits at CRT, the grown-ups can have two glasses of wine? LOL.

Unfortunately on the day that you're arriving the bounce back will be a room only discount not free dining using the free dining bounce back expires October 31 and November it changes to room only discount that has to be booked on the day you check out by 10:00 PM.
