Vancouver, BC and have had a few pins but only for DL, where we do not go, and none recently for DW, where we go! Had one in the past for DW but it was only for values if I remember correctly. Not for the deluxes we stay at. It's like they think if we are coming all that way we only want a value...not too accomodating, but what can you do
Almost always get something if I requst the planning DVD or go on line and save a vacation itinerary.
So what have your strategies been in attempting to get a pin? I know there's no guarantee, but I'm interested if there's any unique ways that might differ for Canadians or if it's just the saving the itinerary and navigating around on the site and talking to CMs...
I haven't saved an itinerary, wandered around the site very much, or talked to too many CMs but each year I get a PIN. I think that so long as you are signed up for all the Disney Destinations correspondence and go to WDW annually, you're in the running. That's just my theory, though. I could be wrong.
I got a 30/35/40 pin too, just for Canadians, but it worked out better to do the 4/3 deal... or so I thought! There's another thread here where someone is claiming that the discount applies to the dining plan too??!!?? Can anyone confirm this?
When we booked our room the CM told me that the 4/3 deal is better and if it is extended we can apply the difference to our package. As far as I know this discount cannot be applied to the dining plan, it is for rooms only.
I'm in BC and received 2 pins via. email in the past 2 months and 1 via. snail mail for DLR.
We applied the 40% off pin code to our reservation and were happy - the only thing was that one of our nights was excluded. Then the room only deal came out and included all of our nights so we switched and saved a little bit of $$.
And while it is ROOM ONLY just as our Pin was - we were able to convert room only to a package, add dining plan and park tickets (at full price).
