Discounts and specials...

[DisneyBliss7]

When will they start to advertise for specials in May of 2013? We have the AoA booked for May 11th-18th. If a special comes up can it be applied to our trip even though we've had it booked for about 4months? I saw a special for a family of 4....we are a family of 7 does that mean we wouldn't be eligible for it? I'm not sure how any of this works...Thanks!!

I'm not sure when the specials for May will come out but there usually are promotions at that time of year. In the past (according to Mousesavers), promotions for May have been releases anytime between Jan. and April. Yes, you can definitely have the promotion applied once it comes out. If you booked through a travel agent, they can have it applied for you. If you booked directly through WDW, call the reservations number and have it applied. If the promotion is for free dining, it will apply for your whole family. When WDW advertises rates per person, they base it on the average family size of 4 to give people an idea of the cost per person. Of course that number changes with different family sizes.
