A Couple of Bounceback Questions

[SomePixiedust]

DD is going to be staying on site next month with a friend. The friend booked the room in their name but DD is listed on the reservation. Will DD be able to book a bounceback offer in her name for herself and me (the friend would not be going again)? We are hoping to get something for Food and Wine If we are able to do this, can we add 2 other people into our room at a later date if they can make it, or would she be better off putting them on with the original ressie and removing them if they can't come? Lastly, (for now lol) are we able to change the dates around if necessary. We know the week we want to go but are unsure if it will be for 3, 4, or 5 nights. Should we book all 5 then cancel 1 or 2 if necessary? Any help is appreciated TIA

Any adult in the room can book a bounce back. I would book your maximum days and drop a few off later. You can move your dates within the original offer dates and pending availability.

Adding or removing guests wouldn't really matter either way, as long as it's not the booker.

Thanks! That's what I was hoping. I will have her book for the 5 days (which of course is what I'm hoping to be able to be there for!)

Does anyone found if the BB offer is better then the current promos or pins with free PH option? i booked the pin code for the summer but wonder when im there next week if i should check out the BB offer or if its not worth it?

BB offer is often better than the public offers and the same as most pin codes .every once in a while if a pin ahs something like free hopper or a free day of tickets on it, it beats the BB offer but if its just pin for room discount it usually matches BB offer.

a lot of summer is blacked out on BB offer too you are probably just better off as you have it now. with the PH offer I'm about 99% sure your better off

I am going next September. The trip is in my name. I'm also planning to go back w/ my mom next March. Probably the first or second week - depends when my brother and the high school band are going, since she wants to see him perform. What is the discount usually associated w/ BBs? Also, if we need to change dates, is there a penalty?

The offers change. I'm not sure what the current one is. You're best to call x8844 from your resort room to see what options are out there and then decide from there.

For the past several years, the BB for September has been for free dining the following September. Since there is some speculation that free dining is going away, the offer could be something totally different for 2014.

We'll be there in a couple of weeks - does anyone know what the current BB offer is? (thinking of going back for MNSSHP)

 

[Smurfgirl]

It was 30% off last week when I was at POR FQ.

This is something I will believe when I see it as FD is the offer that brings in the most people during a notoriously slow month at WDW. I can't think of any offer (at least that they've offered now or in the past) that would bring in as many people.

I'm hoping FD is the BB offer this September and I'll be booking again for 2015.

Agree, it may go away for other months but I think FD is here to stay for September.

I agree. We are currently booked on a BB for Sept/Oct and will do so again if it is offered when we are there. We booked the last day, I love how you just have to check in on the last day to get the promotion for your whole stay.

We are booked under the same BB offer!!! Can't wait. Hoping the BB offer is the same/similar this year. It's easier to come home when we have at least one trip to countdown to.
