Discounts

[helenm29]

Hey there! did anyone else out there change their resorts because of the new discounts? I changed mine to a split stay! 14 days at POFQ and 4 days at AKL! so excited! it all worked out the same price as it would have just staying at POFQ. Question: does anyone think there might be more discounts coming up with an AP?

It would be highly unusual for them not to release AP and Florida Resident discounts for the same time period.

But there are no guarantees regarding how large the discount will be, and which resorts will be included. So you might have already booked the best deals for the resorts you reserved, especially in regards to POFQ (which often is excluded, or given a token discount). That's one reason I love the bounceback. It's usually equal to the AP and Resident discounts and I don't have to play the waiting game while watching the resorts fill up with lesser discounts.

Yeah, bouncebacks were great until they no longer included October and November like last year and this year. Late October, early November is our must go time to F&W.

Now I book with a travel agent as soon as their "deals" come out, so I also don't have to play the waiting game. If we decide to go other times of the year, we book if we can get a discount.
