Disney Flyers & Postcards

[AndyMcV]

Hi Everyone

Just wondering if everyone receives these flyers or postcards from Disney? I registered on the Disney site a while ago and I've never received anything (other than the vacation planning DVD).

Maybe they don't deliver to Canada.

Thanks
Andy

I don't think there is any rhyme or reason as to who they send those postcards to. I received one once, but can't say that I had done anything differently to deserve it. We actually didn't even use it.

We did get a flyer from WDW with our name printed on it, saying how we would be welcomed back and how they "know we like to travel in the summer to WDW". Thought that one was a little odd, but we like any mail from Disney.

Disney does targeted marketing with their flyers and postcard rates. Most often they are looking to get people to come back who've not been to Disney for a while. While registering on their website may help, it's no guarantee you will get anything.

I don't understand it either . I received a postcard once - about a month after I got back from my trip there. I thought they sent it b/c I had been put on some sort of mailing list. Never got one again!

I live here in the USA, and I'm registered on their site, but have yet to receive one, so you're not alone!

I find it odd that my DH and I are the ones who book and pay for all of our family trips and our children or other adult relatives who were traveling with us are the ones who get the post cards. We never have gotten even one. I'm beginnig to think that is why they ask you to list the names and addresses of everyone included in your party when you book.

we are there at least twice a year and I think we may have gotten one or two. they are always fla resident rate ones.

I've never received a post card either, and I sign up for every mailing list I can! Bummer.......

We're going to buy Annual Passes in November for the first time ever. Maybe that'll get me on the "right" mailing list!

I once was Planning a trip and decided not to go it was a girls only trip. I met my future Husband in mid 2001 so I cancled the trip and the others went without me. But sometime mid March I recieved a Postcard in 2002 for some great rates at moderates so we got engaged in March and we went to Disney early May2002 to celebrate and got married in May 2003 and guess were we went on are honeymoon? I finally went on a all girls trip this past April 2004 POFQ and My Dh and I are Going during Value Season to POp Century. I'm not sure if it is because I cancled but that may be the case. I wouldn't recommed it but maybe this happens at times.

I received a postcard after our first trip to All Star Movies in 2001 and have never received another one

Yesterday I received a flyer saying they knew we liked visiting the World in September and it was time to plan another trip. Odd, because we already have reservations for this September. Unfortunately, the flyer didn't offer us any discounts.

I've taken time in the parks to complete surveys and given my email address to the cm's hoping I would get on a "list" somewhere but no luck. I believe, like many others, it is totally random who gets them & who doesn't.

We actually get the disount postcards and mailings a lot, several in the past few months! We couldn't use any of them as we're not going till next winter, and of course they were all for this year. I remember two of them mentioning the fact that we got the free planning kit back in Jan or Feb, but we hadn't booked a trip yet...so I guess they were getting impatient with us lol. We did finally make our room ressies this past Monday, so I bet we won't get any more mailings now! We just use the codes anyway so the mailings aren't a huge deal.

I only get postcards when we are unable to go to Disney that year! Of course, when we're planning a trip, we never get a card, lol. Murphy's Law, I guess!

I'd be curious to know-has anyone outside of the US received any postcards, emails etc?

I have not yet heard of any.
