Confused....govt employee rates code

[newjmom]

I was reading the post on S&D codes. My husband is a civilian government employee (does this qualify)? and we also have entertainment. Are these 2 discounts only offered at S&D, or at all resort hotels?

IS there a list or place I can search for them?

We are traveling first week of November and need 2 rooms or a villa but I have not been able to find any "deals..." I prefer the Poly or G F for convenience to monorail but am not tied to it, the only real requirment is a waterslide for the kids.

TIA, Judy

They are only offered at the Swan & Dolphin. And yes, you would qualify. He would just have to show some type of ID upon check-in.

newjmom to the DIS!

I just wanted to mention in case you were unaware that the Swan and Dolphin resort, while being on Disney property and having nearly all the same benefits and services of the other resorts, are not owned by Disney and this is why you will see different discounts for this awesome resort than for the Disney owned resorts on property.

What can't you get at the Swan and Dolphin that is available at the Disney resorts? I know they get some of the perks but what don't they get? Thanks.

S&D don't get Disney Dining Plan or charging privileges at the parks. We really thought hard about staying there this summer. We really wanted the dining plan so we decided against it.

Oh, I've got to have the dining plan. I guess they are a no-go for me.

Does your husband work for DOD? If so, you may want to check out Shades of Green. It is on Disney property, but not disney owned. Active duty military, civilian DOD employees & DOD contrators can stay there. Here's a link......
