Are the Bounceback dates the same at all the resorts?

[CR Resort Fan 4 Life]

This August my family and I are doing at a split stay at the Contemporary and Boardwalk and I was just wondering if there are Bounceback offer sheets in our rooms, would the dates listed at both resorts have the exact same days when the Bounceback rates would be available? So basically do each of the resorts offer the same days for the rates or are they different for each resort?

Very interesting to know the answer to that one! Although, I want be doing a split stay....

If I am staying at a Value, will I only get BB offers for a Value?

Of course it can always change at any time, but so far as I know the BB dates have always been the same at all resorts.

The flyers might look different at each resort, and might advertise different resorts you can BB to, but when you call the extension 8844 from your room you can ask about ALL the BB's being offered across the categories during your stay so you can pick the one you want to book, like this compliation of the current BB's being offered at different resorts:

Get 20% off a Select Disney VALUE Resort: 1/3-1/14/2010, 1/18-2/11, 2/15-3/27, 4/11-7/1, 7/5-11/23, 11/28-12/24/2010

Get 35% off a Select Disney MODERATE Resort: 1/3-1/14, 1/18-2/11, 2/15-3/27, 4/11-7/1, 7/5-11/23, 11/28-12/24/2010

Get 40% off WILDERNESS CABINS: 1/3-1/14, 1/18-2/11, 2/15-3/27, 4/11-7/1, 7/5-11/23, 11/28-12/24/2010

Get 40% off a Select Disney DELUXE Resort: 1/3-1/14, 1/18-2/11, 2/15-3/27, 4/11-7/1, 7/5-11/23, 11/28-12/24/2010

Get 45% off a Select Disney DELUXE VILLA Resort: 1/3-1/14, 1/18-2/11, 2/15-3/27, 4/11-7/1, 7/5-9/30/2010 (Offer excludes 3 bedroom grand villas) * Note: another nice DISer added these dates for the Villas 8/15-11/23 and 11/28-12/16/2010)

In this example, the resort guests staying at POP might get a flyer showing the 20% off Values, but they can book the 40% at a Deluxe if they ask. JMO (and there is probably some really good $$$ reason Disney Marketing does it that way ), but I think they should better explain about your choices instead of having a tiny sentence "Ask About Other Resorts, Lengths of Stay, and Availability" on the BB flyer. I think most people think what's advertised on their BB flyer is all they can book.

Thanks for all of the info.! I'll be looking for the BB offer when we're there in October, and will plan to book something, even if we end up cancelling later.

I'll be looking for the BB offer when we're there in October, and will plan to book something, even if we end up cancelling later.

If you don't see a BB flyer in your room remember to call the BB extension 8844 from your resort room to see what's available.

Also since you are going in October here's an FYI so you'll be prepared and ready to book a BB (or not). BB's usually change to different offers for guests staying in October. For example, last year the BB offered until October 24. 2009 was to be able to book a Free Dining package a year ahead for the next years FD dates in Aug-Oct 2010. Then when that FD BB expired on 10/24/09 a new BB started, and the new one was for room discounts with return dates up to fall/winter of the next year.

So IF that happens again this year, depending on when you go in October, your BB offer could be completely different than what you are planning for. You might want to have BB Plan A and BB Plan B ready
