dvc and free dinning

[halld6479]

is there anyway for dvc members to get free dinning?

Yes, you simply book a cash package through CRO and save your points for another time.

If what you mean is whether or not you can get the free dining promotion with a points stay, then no. That is a discount given out with the purchase of a specific vacation package through the WDW Travel Company.

When you book a DVC stay, you are not booking a package stay.

I saw WDW offer like 30% off during their room promotion. Say, if I use my points to stay for a week and I would like to pay cash to stay another extra night, can I take advantage of the promotion for our additional nights which we pay from our own pocket anyway?

Thanks.

Yes, you'd be booking that additional those cash nights through Disney Reservations, and not DVC. And, there are some room categories not available through those cash reservations, depending upon which DVC resort. For instance, cash usually is not given Boardwalk or Value views. And you'd also need to meet any additional requirements for that discounted cash stay. For instance, if there is a discount that requires a 3 night stay, you'd need to be staying 3 nights on cash through Disney Reservations, not DVC.

Other wise, you can often book additinal nights at a DVC resort with cash through DVC with a 25% member discount.
