Do cancellations have to be done by phone?
If there is a cancel button, use it. For some reason, some people don't have one. I did last year, and used it no problem.
Lovely to avoid a call!

I feel your pain. I was trying to change my reservation for Pop to the Enchanted Escape package several times today. I even got as far as the purchase screen to find out the price was the same as before the discount when it should have been less. I guess I'm just going to keep trying until IT fixes the problem.I wish the "Change" button would work. All day long.... logging in and out, different browsers, different computers.... just goes back to the Reservations page every time.

No, unfortunately we couldn’t get free dining. (Nov 25th - Dec 7th at Pop) Couldn’t modify and then when I tried to find another resort there were no values with that date range available. I’m hoping perhaps something will open up over the next few days/weeks.
We were always planning to go anyway so I just have to remind myself it isn’t the end of the world, at least we are going to Disney!
I do have a question. Our 3 year old eats hardly anything (not picky, just not a big eater). Obviously at buffets we have to pay for her, but at other table service can just my husband and I buy meals and then share ours with her? Or if she’s at the table will they want her to order something?
If it helps at all, we have 20+ stays at Pop and much prefer Standard rooms over the others, especially the 60's section overlooking the lake!
I think that May/June was the original planned completion but now the completion date appears to be sometime in October and that is IF it only takes 2 months per building (it is taking closer to 3) and allow for overlaps.Yes they are supposed to be all done I think by June. Looking forward to the renovated rooms, hope they work well and aren't too cramped. The two queens plus my daughter's wheel chair hopefully will work.

And this is why I will never use a TA. No matter how good they are, when a hot offer drops they'll never be able to get what every client wants. On my own I am looking out for just my family. I did not get free dining this morning because the resort we want was not included. But I was checking just in case this morning when it dropped. These are our exact dates and both AoA and Pop were available. No sure if you had specific room requirements, but I know I saw both resorts.So, my TA just informed me that there wasn't any more availability for AoA or Pop through Dec. 1, from our Nov.24 start of part 2 of split stay. She has a hold for us that she booked online for Nov 24-28, and hoping for additional info today to change. We also have our original ressie in place from Nov19-Dec1. Our 180-day is in about 3-4 weeks and shortly later is when SW flight window opens. So, that gives us a little bit of time for inventory to shift around. Hoping.
I don't think anyone ever answered your question. You CAN just share with her at a la carte places, but then you will have child TS credits to use somewhere. Once all your QS credits are gone, you could use her leftover TS for QS meals. You cannot use her TS credits for adult TS meals.
Also, in case you haven't seen, many are saying there is free dining availability at the All Stars for your dates. Go look!
another pop expert here..we have stayed in the Lakeview rooms at Pop yearly past 5 yrs...smoking section separated enough it is a non issue(path by the lake where smoking is..is very separate from sidewalks by hotel) walk to main building 3 minutes from 60's section. Good luck!Since you’re a pop expert, question about the lake view rooms. They look nice but I noticed of designated smoking areas along that pathway. Is that ever a problem? How bad is the walk from lake view to main dining hall? I’ve never been to pop before and looking forward to it but was really hoping for preferred room after the long long walks around the CSR pond.....
Pop Warner is Dec 1-7 so you are good.
I stayed in one of the newly renovated rooms last Sept/Oct with my mom who was using an electric wheelchair. The room was tight but doable. The hardest thing was parking it in a place it could be charged. Just watch out walking to the restroom at night.Yes they are supposed to be all done I think by June.
