Bounceback Information and FAQ Thread - 25-35% off BOUNCEBACKS ARE BACK for 2025! Updated 1/31/2025

You can book the bounce back online now. I booked one for this year but fully intend to modify it online for 2026 when those dates come out.

Yeah I know but I figure I will wait it out. Besides availability doesn't really matter because I won't be keeping it anyway. LOL. But I appreciate the thought. Thanks.

I'd book something now, who knows if they will allow you to book a 2026 BB if it's more than the 7 day out limit. Do the rooms only package for now so you only have to put down a $200 deposit. You can always cancel, just make sure it's 31 days out - I like the extra day buffer!

Oh sorry for the confusion. I'm here now till the 20th so the 27th is my last bookable day this trip. I will be booking something before then. It will be a room only at a value resort. Just hoping 2026 dates come out before then. If not I will definitely be booking something before the 27th so I can change to next year. I have an October trip also so I will have another opportunity to book something for next year. But thanks for the advice I appreciate it. Love this thread. Everyone's advice and info is so helpful.

Breaking…..New 2026 dates coming soon??????? I looked at the place holder reservations I made last week, as I do most days. When I went to change dates option, the calendar shows dates until October 29, 2026. But if I try to actually click specific dates, I get Donald & a Had To Duck Out message. As of yesterday, only 2025 dates were still showing.

Now Donald is gone & I’m getting dates in 2026, but no rooms showing as available. The whole calendar is showing, not specific weeks. I don’t think that’s right for BB, but at least maybe they’re working on it?

Well @focusondisney I am leaving Disney today and just booked another BB for this year. I did ask if she heard anything about 2026 dates and she said no. I was hoping I wouldn't have to book another one for this year. I do have till the 27th but had time now so just called today. I do plan on changing to 2026 whenever Disney gets around to opening up the dates for 2026. Like many I will be following this thread daily.

Thanks @didilovesdisney. My 7 days expired Saturday, so I made reservations for late 2025 trips intending to change to 2026. Keep us posted if you’re able to make one in 2026.

I had a bounceback for the Poly in July and we decided to cruise on the Magic instead. I still wanted one day from the original booking for the night after the cruise. They were able to modify it down to one day which was nice since it wouldn't let me do it online. I figured I'd have to change resorts.

Will do. If I get a chance before the 27th I may call again just to see if I get a more forthcoming CM. LOL. This CM was fine she was more interested in selling me things I don't want though. No interest in 2026 dates like I was. And I did mention it a few times. LOL. Oh well.

Just made a 2025 bounceback reservation in hope that we can apply to new 2026 bouncebacks if they are released. It is our checkout day so we do have a week to still be eligible to book. Just afraid I'll forget and miss it by a day or so. It says the offer expires 5/27- is that just my expiration date?

Yes you only have until 5/27 to book a bounce back. Book something for 2025 dates. Pay the 200 and then move the dates to 2026 when they become available

$200 if you want a package; 1 night’s rate if you want room only.

I just got home on the 19th. Called today to book a bounce back. Will change it when 2026 is available as well! Heading back on June 1st with my DD and hoping to see 2026 dates in the room!!
