Extending free Dining?

[wendy1974]

Excuse me if this has already been discussed at length but I don't have the chance to get on here as much and I couldn't find it in a search. I read in one of the posts that they extended free dining. I was wondering what the dates were extended to?
TIA

We just got back and we had a flyer in our room that was free dining offer with the bounceback offer. Not sure if the dates were only from the end of Sept into October of next year. I didn't inquire since I own DVC. Strange though I got the flyer but my friend who was with us in another studio and is not a DVC member did not get the flyer.

The only "extension" currently offered to free dining is that certain dates in October, November and December have been offered as part of a targeted discount. The only way to get these right now is 1) to book with a Disney Visa card or 2) to receive an email or postcard with a nontransferable PIN code. There is no current free dining offer available for the general public.

As for the bounceback offer - you can book that if you are staying at a Disney resort, no matter whether or not you got a flyer in your room. But you do need to know the number to call. Those staying at DVC resorts are also eligible to make a bounceback package reservation for next year, if they want to forego using points in order to get free dining.

We just got back from a studio at VWL and received a bounceback free dining flyer ... we booked POR for 8/29/09-9/6/09.

Even though we're DVC, free dining is so MUCH FUN that we couldnt resist.

We booked two rooms (1 in my name, 1 in hubby's name) - SIL and BIL are coming with us.
