Dec. Discount ?

[addsomebling]

Can anyone please tell me if any discounts are offered the week after Thanksgiving? We will be there 11/29 - 12/6. I'm hoping for Free Dining, Disc. room rate or free hoppers.

 

[mikesmom]

Free dining will end at the end of September. They don't have to offer incentives to get heads in beds the week after Thanksgiving.

They NEVER give free hoppers.

As for any other type of room discounts, I don't know.

Do you have AAA ? I got a room only discount with my AAA card...

When there is a room only discount, is there a minimum night stay or can it be used for one night?

 

[tiger4me2]

No free dining during that time only mid August to mid September time frame. They do offer some discounts but announced around mid August or so. Last year it was something off your room. Had different dates you could use it. Hope this helps

It can usually be used even for just one night

Wow! Last years was the only Christmas in 12 years that we were not in WDW, so I didn't keep close track of the dates. Thanks for the reminder.

 

[candyfloss]

we went this time last year, and paid about $80-90 for a room at POR (in a package)

In 2007, that week was not the Saturday after Thanksgiving, it was Nov. 25th Thanksgiving is a week later this year. We are going the same time and really hope some type of discount is announced.
