We had signed up using the following link. Note; if I remember correctly, when you sign up, there is no confirmation or anything which is a little frustrating. But, turns out we were signed up.
What!? I thought you had to take a certain amount of trips and then you were automatically enrolled. So so happy to be able to sign up with just one trip. Thanks for the link. Signed up immediately! I can't recall getting this info on my trip, but I'm glad I have it now. Hoping I get this gift and the chance to sign up early for Spain. I may have to cancel my Ireland ABD for it, but oh well.
That was the situation when we took our first trip. Maybe it has changed, but we had to be the ones to sign up ourselves. "SingingMom" ....Sent from my iPad using DISBoards

That's interesting, I've never heard anyone mention being signed up automatically before. It was always presented to me as something you had to actually physically sign up for (after you had taken at least one ABD). Many people had to sign up twice as it didn't seem to "take" at first.
The Insider program is not run by ABD. There's an outside company that runs it.
Whether you have to physically be signed up as an insider to book on December 9th, or would be allowed to book if you're a Returning customer, I don't know. I may have to ask ABD!
Tozzie, you're the first person I've heard say they were automatically signed up. Everyone else said they signed up & got it, and some of us had to sign up twice to start receiving gifts. It was definitely presented when it first came out as something you had to sign up for. There was a lot of discussion around this when the first group reported getting a gift from Insiders, and several people never got it.
I was also told it was something you had to sign up for.
If that's changed, and it's automatic, that's nice, but I've never seen anything stating that. But it also seems some people aren't being signed up automatically.
I know that I wasn't told to sign up by ABD; my travel agent actually said it was automatic. And she also said after a certain amount of trips you'd start recieving gifts.
If this program is not run by ABD, however, it makes total sense that you'd need to sign up. I'm kicking myself for not asking ABD.
