Bouncebacks and combining rates?

[markman04]

First of all, can someone explain to me exactly what a bounceback offer is. From what i understood, i thought it was an offer left in your room at a Disney resort to get you to book your next Disney vacation. But now someone told me that it is only to book your next Disney vacation at the same time the following year.

Also, if i were to book a bounceback room rate and then later found out that there was a Florida discount or room only discount being offered at the time of my bounceback stay, would i be able to add the discount to my already discounted room?

I'm going in November and then again in February, that's why i ask.

Thanks for your help

The bounceback is for those currently registered at a WDW hotel. The current bounceback offer is for Free Dining for a stay next year during the same basic timeframe (sorry I'm not sure of the exact dates). Sometimes there are other bounceback offers for future stays with disounted room rates. You cannot combine offers. If you are there and book a bounceback and something else comes up, you can change your reservation. Generally, you can do this with no penaly prior to 45 days of your stay. If within that timeframe a $50 fee may be incurred.

In addition to the bounce back offer, there are many offers for discounts for the remainder of this year. Disney Visa has a free dining offer, that we just took advantage of, with the FD as well as a small room discount. When free dining is generally offered, you pay the rack rate.
