Chances of POR or CBR being inlcuded in Free Dining???

[NHBelle]

We are a family of 5 so the special rooms at CBR and POR that accommodate 5 are by far the lowest price option for us for free dining. I know last year POR was not included, but in years past it has been. I have seen no mention of CBR not being included but the rooms for 5 are new right???? It's just going to make my decision that much harder because we were leaning towards POLY, but would save a ton of money if the rooms for 5 are available. What are everyone's thoughts????

POR is likely excluded. I think the FD rumors said so.

Disney isn't known for adding thing back into their discounts.

From what I have seen, it said POR is included until Oct 2nd and then excluded after that.

If I was to guess, I would say that both will probably be excluded. I think the reasoning behind that is that Disney considers it "too much of a discount" if a group of 5 can get regular Disney Dining for paying moderate hotel rack rates. Also, Disney typically doesn't need to discount hotels or room classes that will sell out without a discount.

Maybe a Royal room at POR.

The royal rooms only sleep 4.

I am going on October 2. We were able to purchase a bounceback for our Oct 2015 trip in Sept 2014. We are staying at Port Orleans Riverside and it was included. So if it follows the same as bounceback it should be included.

BBs and pins have more options than public offers. It was included in BB for 2014 and excluded for the public.

I will be shocked if it isnt included for a part of the time.

I was actually able to get a Free Dining bounce back for POFQ--and that's NEVER included in the public offerings! So the bounce back and public offers can be very different.

I've always got them discounted, as long as room is available

Maybe if they release a pin POR will be included - that's what happened last year.

I stand (happily) corrected from my post above.

Most likely scenario is if in a Disney Visa offering or in a pin code offering the resorts get included. I know last year we were looking at a December trip and POR was only included in a pin code offering and not the general public offering. As this year seems more restrictive than last year, I don't forsee Disney expanding the general public offering.
