How do the bounce back offers work? Do you have to stay a certain number of days to receive an offer? Do they give bounce back offers for people who book a hotel only or do you need to buy a package (dining & tickets)?
No. If you happen to be going during the time bounceback offers are being offered, you just have to be staying at a Disney resort. I know a few years ago they had a deal going on in Dec, where you could book free dining for the following August/Sept. Quite a few people flew down to spend just one night, in order to book it. Check here on the DIS and know before you get down there if bounceback offers are going on. When you check in, there should be a flyer in your room (usually on the desk or nightstand). If not, still call 8444 from the resort phone and ask if any bounceback offers are going on.
It does not matter if you are staying on a room only deal or a pkg. You are still eligible to book bounceback deals. I have four for this year. I booked bounceback free dining for Sept/Oct when I was there this past fall and then in Dec I booked 35% off moderates for May, Oct, and Dec. I'll probably be canceling the free dining one though. Once you get home you can modify both your dates and also change your resort. I've already done both.
