[scuba diver]

Well, I'm off......crossing the state in the next few days.

Still trying to out run the law?

Just made WDW reservations for Monica and I in September. Was able to call and get Pop Century with the dining plan -- wasn't available on the online system.

OK - It's bad when I have to come to the DIS to find out more information than he leaves me on the answering machine at home...

You'd think he'd post the dates, too... Anyone up for a meet, as soon as he posts when we're visiting the mouse???

Are you kidding?? This is the preferred method!!



At least you have proof AND witnesses.......

Maybe he doesn't want to share his time with you......

Virgil

Then he shouldn't have picked WDW

When it comes to the mouse, he has no illusions of being selfish. He tried that on our honeymoon... I think my answer was: "What do you mean you want to go back to the hotel, the park is still open...!!!!"

Yeah, on the answering machine, he says we have to make a decision if we really want to go , then he calls to ask for the username and password to log in to check our reservation... I think it's decided...

hmm, can I claim this as my birthday present???!!!! After all, it's winding up cheaper than his present...

 

[mickeymo]

wait...news flash - the CM didn't include the dining plan on the reservation ... baited breath - he's on hold with CR ... (Thought it was too good to be true we got Pop Century with the dining plan...)

 

[mickeymo]

rats - no luck with the supervisor

I specifically asked the agent for the Free Dining and mentioned that I could be flexible on dates. I requested the Pop Century and he said it was available for my first choice of dates. Later I confirmed that dining plan was included and the agent said it was.

When I checked it on-line it only had the Magic Your-way plan and not the dining option.

Called back and talked to another agent and then a manager and they could not do anything about it. Either move up to Port Orleans for $500+ more or add dining at $78/pp/night.

I know it could have been a misunderstanding by the agent, but it sure feels like classic bait and switch to me... Not what I expected from Disney at all.....Unfortunately we have had to cancel.....

Nice. I don't feel to bad since I am working on booking our diving in Grand Turk for our Thanksgiving cruise.

She said the next time I come out I could ride him. Come to find out his name is Buddy and he is her personal horse. His dad stared in the movie Hidalgo. He has alot of horse in him. I am excited.
