Did they change something with free dinning?

[mickeys friend]

Always before with free dinning, if you checked in during the free dinning dates,you got the free dinning for the whole trip even if you checked I on the last day of free dinning.,so have they changed that? A friend was told that this hear the whole trip has to be during the free dinning dates. Sorry for the typos I am on a tablet. Need to know if the changed this for this hear or is it like all the other years. Thanks.

No, still just the check-in date has to fall within the promo dates. I booked 11/15-23 and got free dining for all 8 nights and the offer was stays 11/9-20.

Our dates are Oct 31- Nov 11 and the free dining cut off is Nov 1. We got it for our whole stay.

Who told your friend this?

We booked Pop free dining Dec. 20 - Jan. 3rd.

Thanks eveyone for the help.I am very glad that they haven't changed the free dinning days.We have always checked in a couple of days before a cut off date and have never had any problems,but since I am not going this year (wish we were),I didn't know for sure and my TA was closed by the time my friend asked about it.Her TA told her she couldn't do it but I told her I'd find out for sure.Thanks again.

I booked for the very last day during the beginning of October, the 3-11, and got it for the whole thing too. I still think that is so cool because otherwise we couldn't have made the dates work. I compromised (kind of) by deciding to take the kids out of school a day early from their break in order to book on the 3rd.

Well, if she is going by what her TA is telling her, I would suggest she find a new TA who knows more about Disney and their promos.

Nothing has changed, and if the TA doesn't know something that basic, I certainly would not entrust my travel to him/her.

I think the only time you run into issues is when your check in date precedes the free dining period and then goes into it. In that scenario you'd either have to move your dates or book a split stay. Otherwise, in for a day, in for your stay.

I agree 100%.

When I called the morning the Disney Visa offered opened, the CM on the phone tried to tell me I couldn't have it because my dates weren't all within (November 1-11). I had to argue with her and she finally figured it out. Also, when I asked her what moderates were included, she told me POP, ASMU, ***, WL.... It was a long call. First negative feedback I've ever given on the survey. Hopefully she was just new.
