This is exactly what I'm thinking.I think that CBR will be offered at a discounted price compared to other moderates once the gift card deal is done. The disruption is too great to expect guests to muddle through while paying regular prices.
Interesting that the Pardon our Pixie Dust pop-up has changed. I booked 5 nights in September Wednesday night, then modified it yesterday to add 2 more days. Both days, the Pardon our Pixie Dust pop-up had the note about the gift card offer. I have a screen print from both days with it. We like CBR and figured we would stay there for part of our trip anyway. But the $75 GC was the determining factor in reserving now with normal rack rates. Otherwise, I would have waited for the late summer discounts to be posted. I'm a little paranoid something will go wrong, but hopefully the fact that I booked while this offer was still clearly posted on the site means we will receive what we expect.
It will be very interesting to see how they handle the problem if bookings drop from CBR.
Those who book starting today aren't getting itThis is confusing!!!
I booked CBR for Nov 2017 a few weeks ago. I received an email stating the $75 gc.
So I am now not getting it?
Will they not offer free dining at CBR? ( assuming it is offered at all)
Can I not keep the gift card offer and get free dining?
I agree that CBR will be wide open up for free dining.Free dining.
It won't be anyone's first choice now that the gift card is off the table, but people get desperate with this promotion and it will book up, if it's offered.

Did you book a package or room only? It is going to be interesting to see if those who booked room only but want to change to a package are able to keep it. You can change the reservation but it does mean they cancel the room only and book a package. At least behind the scenes. Hopefully they have a means of moving the gift card when they change the reservation.

I didn't see any date. I saw that it's gone from the website today and it was there late last nightThey get it today and tomorrow. Not sure where u saw the last day was March 16th. The last day is March 19th.
I just spoke with a rep stating the March 19th date everyone is talking about in other threads.I didn't see any date. I saw that it's gone from the website today and it was there late last night
You shouldn't have any issues then, a package is a package, free dining or paid.I booked a package. 2 rooms 6 disney adults
As with all things Disney, the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing.I just spoke with a rep stating the March 19th date everyone is talking about in other threads.
I wouldn't expect you to be able to keep the gift card since you are canceling one reservation and booking another.I talked to someone this morning and she could not guarantee that if i booked a packaged today to get the gift card and then modified to get FD that I would still be able to get the GC.
