Can I get the same rate at a different resort after the code expires?

We have WL booked for August w/40% off code. Have had some unexpected expenses & no bonuses to date. If we switched to a moderate, can we get the same 40% off even though the promotion was over March 31?

Probably not, due to:

1) discounts for deluxes and resorts were probably not the same %;
2) chances are probably low that any discounted rooms would be available if the code has been around a while, even if it wasn't expired; and
3) as you said, the code expired on 3/31.

Call and ask.
Some people have done it with some of the codes and others have been told no.
It is worth a call though.
Good luck!

Call and try.

Last year when I had a 40% off pin, I had booked a week in December for vacation at Disney. However, we found out after the code expired that my dad could not get a week off in December so I called to see if I could make any changes and the CM was able to work with me to still get me the discount for a week in October at the hotel of my choice.

If the CM you get can't help, ask to speak with guest services, they can often help in situations like this. As long as the resort you are switching to, didn't sell out all of it's rooms during the promotion, it may be possible for you to switch.

Like all the others posters call & ask. You never know until you call. Good luck hope things work out for you

As for Guest Services. CRO probably can't help you, but Guest Services can usually work with you to make a change.

The best you can do is call and ask. We had a problem with our ressie:
We booked 2 rooms in january AKL got a suprise 40% off-woohoo $174/night....my parents' room is a package (tickets & dining) and we are FL ressies AP-room only for us. OK well my parents just sold their home & now are FL ressies last weekend we went up and they bought APs...I called to modify and was told they had to rebook....oh no....so after much debate i was put on hold and a ressies manager said ok here's the deal-your code expired-however; its a good reason for modifiacation-we can't put the deposit from the original package to this room only we need to rebook it, but we will honor the code and give you the same discount. I had to book it on my visa immediatly and wait a week for a refund from the orginal package. However, we still got the code honored and it was 4 months later-give it a shot-Good luck!
