DVC discount changes!

[Dean]

I noticed the Artist Point discount isn't available on major holidays. I also noticed that they've changed the Rainforst Cafe to lunch only at both locations.

Thanks Dean.

It is so hard to stay on top of these things. I just ask if AP or DVC discounts are available whenever I pay for something. At least now I don't have to ask if there is an AMEX discount, but I guess I may need to ask if there is a Disney VISA discount (As far as I know there are none at this time?)

When I had Disney Club as well I just handled all my cards and asked which is cheapest. The CMs would usually laugh and then amaze me with a recitation of the advantages and disadvantages with each card.

I understand that they are trying to shift behavior with the discounts, and that they are not obligated to provide them, but something simpler would be appreciated.

I'm somewhat surprised at the Rain Forest Cafe change to lunch only. When my wife and i were at WDW in June, they were passing out free appetizer coupons at the gate, valid only during evening hours. Wouldn't that suggest that lunch business is satisfactory, but that dinner hours are not booking at capacity? Then again, what do I know about restaurant marketing?

Hope we don't have any trouble getting the Artist's Point discount August 24. We plan to got there for our 35 anniversary celebration that night!
