Anyone doing a deluxe with free dining?

[burberryplaid]

Glad to hear things worked out for you!

Thanks!

stepdisney - Keep calling..I would! I had it in my mind to call everyday if I had to. It can't hurt!

We got a standard view garden wing room at CR for 8/29-9/5. With 5 of us in the room, it's basically a wash *if* we had got a 40% off code. Since we didn't get the code, it's the best deal I thought I'd find!

Thanks guys,

I'll keep you posted. I plan on calling three times a day if I have to. Hopefully they will get tired of me and just give me the room. (I know, but I can dream can't I). I'm about to book my air so I really, really need to get the dates settled. Fingers crossed.

DH and I will be at AKL 9/9-9/15... our first time at a Deluxe!!!!

Added FD to our CR GV ressies..we were already paying rack rate. So with myself, DH, DS18, DS13 and DD13 we have 5 adult with FD. Can't beat that with a stick!

Forgot to add in the previous post...One night is not going to be available for the free dining code since the promotion has a 3 night minimum. You will have to ask the CM play around with the dates in order to get one more night. Another option if you belong to AAA is to see if there is a room only discount for the last night. No, you won't get free dining, but at least you have some sort of discount.

ETA: In case you don't want to play around with your existing resv. The AAA room only discount is avx from 9/8, checking out 9/9 for $205.59 (inc tax) rack rate is $241.88 (inc tax). As I said, you won't get free dining, but with the same view you might not have to change rooms. You can always book this one night through CRO and keep trying for a full free dining resv.

Again, Good Luck!

I booked CR MK view from 9/20-9/23 (first part of a split stay) with FD! I have th 40% off for our BC stay - a better deal for us with 2 adults and 3 kids. CR wasn't available for 40%, so I was pleasantly suprised to get the FD.

We will be going to the Poly 8/26 - 9/3! Yeah! We have never stayed at the Poly. This will be our first time at a monorail resort.
I can't wait.

I think I would book the room anyway without the free dining. I guess I am saying this because I have 2 nights of room only before 8/26. I already had air for 8/24 at a great deal and there was no changing that. I'm not sure how many are in your party, but you may still have snack and CS credits for your last day. You can still use the dining plan up to midnight of your last day. Maybe you could just spread it our a little different. I know it's not ideal, and I would continue to keep calling everyday, but I wouldn't cut my trip short if I couldn't get it. That's just my humble opinion.

Thank you for the suggestion. I really have to think about that. We originally had the 40% before we switched, can use that for the last night? I wonder if it's too late. The suggestions for the dining are great. I'm sure we can save some counter services. I hope my husband goes for it. It is difficult for him to spend extra money. He grew up in a very large household and struggled. He works very hard and does well but is very thrifty. I appreciate it because we always stay on budget but it makes it difficult when it comes to making decisions like this.

Thanks again, I really appreciate it. (I love this board, I can feel the love )

We will be at the Beach Club Aug. 31 - Sept.5. No code for us, so the free dining offer is great! There are 5 of us. Can't wait to go!

AKL Savannah view 9/22 - 9/30

 

[jenjersnap]

We're gonna be in a Poly GV room 9/15-9/23.

I was totally crushed that we didn't get the 40% discount for my big birthday in late October, but I am starting to feel a bit better about it since now we'll be there for our anniversary.

I am sorry, but can you explain this code to me. I have not seen it anywhere. Is this code still good and when it it for? Is it for AAA members only? Thanks!

Grand Floridian

09/10/2007 to 09/16/2007

Still waiting for the final price, but it somewhere from $2,939.00 to $3,059.00, I just need to get my new contract from my Travel Agent. It should be the $2,939.00 as she should be matching my corporate discount of 5% off best rate.

Disney sent post cards with a 40% off code to select people. No one knows how they selected these people though. The dates on the code have now expired. I don't know exactly when the codes were for. It was a Disney thing though, not AAA.
