April Free Dining

[emmocakeysari]

I read a while back that Disney sometimes offers free dining to those already staying in WDW resorts. It was referred to as "Bounceback" Free Dining...anybody know anything?

Are you going in April? It's never been offered for April stays, just for August/September at the height of hurricane season.

Last year bookings for the August/September time frame with this particular incentive opened in April.

The Bounce Back incentive was offered only to guests staying at WDW resorts in November and December and they had to book during their stay.

From the Dining Plan FAQ:

What is "free dining"? Will they offer free dining this year?
During the heart of Hurricane Season, Disney has offered a free dining promotion to help encourage reluctant guests to visit during this normally very quiet time of the year. The free dining promotion requires guests to book a Disney MYW package, paying for the hotel at the rack rate, and in return offers the Dining Plan as a free add-on to the package. For the UK/European residents offer, the free dining promotion had to be booked between August 25 and November 6, 2006. The free dining promotion has also been offered to guests while on-site at WDW if staying at Disney resort hotels during December 2006. The free dining promotion applies for arrivals starting August 5 (for the bounce-back offer) or August 12 (for the UK/European offer), through September 29, 2007. There is no indication, one way or another, whether free dining will be offered to other targeted groups and/or to the general public.
