4/3 deal questions

[Max Rebo]

A couple questions about the Buy 4/Get 3 free deal Disney has offered:

1) When did Disney make the announcement of the 4/3 deal for 2009 dates?

2) Did it apply to only specific resorts, or were all included?

Any speculation about whether the 4/3 deal will return for 2010 is also welcome.

 

[goodferry]

No speculation or knowledge about dates, but I do know all resorts were included

 

[MinniesYooHoo]

In February if I remember correctly. It applied to all resorts during the given dates. It saved us $1200!!!!! We were already booked when the announcement was made. We just called our TA and she switched it over for us. Easy as pie.

 

[KellyNY]

If I remember correct November for stays starting in February. I keep waiting what will happen after Free DP, hope 4/3 will be back

 

[Brer Shay]

It opened November 8, though that may have been the VISA date. I know because I made our 4/3 reservations for June on my birthday. The best present ever.

 

[DisneyGrampa]

It was in November, and only applied to selected resorts. I chose POFQ!

We took advantage of that 4/3 deal too and it was great!! I am hoping for it again for 2010!!
I did see on disney worlds site that the current deal only has 12 days left....so I am assuming that the new deal...which i would think would be for 2010 will be out then??!!?? Maybe???

Crossing fingers for the 4/3 deal!!

We picked GF, other family members picked FQ, and CS. All resorts were available.

This wasn't a pin deal right? This was a promotion.

 

[TinkerBrie]

Yep, it was November. We went to the Grand Floridian in March because of it!! Fingers crossed for the same deal for this year!!!

We just loved our may 4/3 trip in a MK view at the Poly. Really want to go back before all the constraction so anxiously waiting for this deal again!!!

 

[jacksmomma]

There was a small Disney Visa window for the 4/3 last year (and to the PP it was a promo not a pin code). I am praying this deal is back for 2010! I would love to see the mouse and save some money in the process!

I used the 4/3 deal in January. We went Jan 4-11, so it started at least by the 4th. I had a ressie at POP, but had to move, first to POR, then something at Movies opened up. We also added a day at POP for $49 through Travelocity; I booked after returning home after Halloween from DLR, and about 2 weeks later, at 4 in the afternoon, 4/3 was offered. Very strange, but had been rumored, so I was ready.

It was available to anyone. You didn't need a double secret PIN code that I never get. We got the 4/3 deal for our POFQ stay in August.

 

[RMulieri]

The 4/3 is NOT a promo that Disney offers yearly.Before this year the last time was briefly in 2003 and before that it was offered just after 9/11 ...Disney only breaks out this deal if it absolutely HAS to .If the economy looks to be recovering, or park attendance and resort bookings stays stable, they probably won't offer it .

I haven't been on wdw site this week. It's not just for budget rooms though. My agent says the fine print allows for all room types.

 

[Brian_WDW74]

I've moved this thread to the Codes and Rates board.

 

[tiggspring]

Just checked that is a different deal. This one is for april to june 2010 not nov-dec 2009.
