Free DDP Booking SUCCESS!!? - Post 'Em Here!

[Aimros]

Said that it looks like everyone already knew about the deal before it even came out and wasn't sure what would be left for the general public with so many ressies coming in already. I am just so glad to have this all booked finally. I still wish it were me though. (going early August, no discounts for me)

not looking good for us thursday people.

Success: POP standard, 8/27 - 9/2.

Oh baby, I can hear Le Cellier and Coral Reef calling my name!!

 

[binkyj826]

I had to have a co-worker hold my cell phone just so I could run into the bathroom, LOL! They picked up just as I walked out. Good timing!

I got POP Century preferred room for 2 adults and 1 child 9/22-9/29 (7 nights) for $1505! No trip insurance although they did say I could add it before I paid the balance in full.

She did not even ask for a code

I am so glad I made all my dining reservations before hand!

 

[POOHDRMR]

just booked 2 rooms for 9/21-9/30 at pop but had to get preferred( oh well,free food right?!!!!)waited for about a half hour and then booking took 40 minutes cause she kept having trouble with getting the insurance off and they had an old address down under my sisters name that kept coming up.

 

[GC&S]

On hold from 9:15-9:40

Talked to a great CM (I was only his second call though - long day ahead for him!!). He did not ask for a code. Just my Visa#. I didn't even ask about free dining - he just said dining was free with our package.

We got POFQ 9-19 - 9-26 with hopper and water park add on. We did take the trip insurance (the only year we didn't my mom got sick and we had to cancel). Total was $2158. Got all my dining ressies too - lots of times available for everything we wanted.

DW just got off of the phone. POFQ 09/17- 09/27. Got all ADRs within 5 min of requested time except for LeCellier - had to go with 04:30 PM. Zipadeedooda!

 

[Pooh Friend]

Two hours on hold!!! Here's what I got:

CSR 9/16-9/21 -- me only $888 - 1 day base ticket
CBR 9/21-9/29 -- me, DH, DS, DM $1718 - 1 day base ticket each
Pop 9/21-9/29 -- my DB, DSIL + 3 kids (2 rooms) $2,587 - 9 day base tickets each

Great, great deals!!!

Just FYI, I was questioning the prices of different resorts and it seemed to me they had plenty to choose from - seems like they have a lot of rooms available!

 

[Maliki2]

YES!!! My AAA agent just called back and got me switched over to Free Dining...I saved $356.76 for 6 nights!!!! I'm so excited!

 

[HayGan]

After only 10 minutes on hold on the 407 number I was able to get...

POFQ (standard) Sept 22 - 29
2 adults & 2 kids
1 day base tickets
FREE DINING
$1,408 (savings of $150 over my previous 40% off reservation and an additional day )

 

[5DisneyNuts]

YES!!! My AAA agent just called back and got me switched over to Free Dining...I saved $356.76 for 6 nights!!!! I'm so excited!

That's great!

If you don't mind my asking, were you able to keep your AAA discount on the room with this pkg or did you lose that for the free dining?

Last year some people have stated they were able to apply free dining to their AAA discounted pkg so I was curious about this year.

Thanks!

We got CBR Sept 1-6 for 3 adults (me, DH and DD 12), one child (DD turning 7 while there ) and one infant for $1842.60 dining included. The CM asked which view we wanted so there seems to be plenty left. This saved us $640 for the time period.


Good luck everyone.

What's everyone doing while they're on hold? Anything fun??

I watched the last episode of Survivor, online, that I missed last week because I was in Orlando.

 

[bell.of.the.ball]

I called at 7am finally got off the phone a little after 9. Pop preferred 8/27-9/3. All ADRs are made flights just booked. NOW THE WAIT BEGINS

 

[Magical JenK]

Got CSR for 9/7-9/15 2 adults standard room....they had no king rooms left.

$1925 with 8 day hoppers and dining.

FYI - The CM said there were 168 people on line on the phone behind me. I was on hold for about a 1/2 hour. Also he mentioned something about them hoping to get people to upgrade to moderate or deluxe rather than value with this promotion that is why the value resorts seem to be booking up faster. I would think that after a few weeks they may open up more value rooms but it's just a guess.

Oh man...that's what I need too! King room CSR 09/05-09/15! Wonder if you booked waterview (same price as king) if when you got there you could ask if there are any king rooms available? Hope to see you there Cheshirekitty!!

Right now we're booked at AKL w/the 40% code, but we've had some unexpected expenses come up w/our puppy, so I'm not giving up on our Disney trip! Will save $430 changing to CSR & free dining!! Just waiting for my AAA TA to let me know!!

[bell.of.the.ball]

Only on hold for 35 minutes

Got POP preferred room 9/22-10/2/07
1 day base ticket and free dining
$1340.52
(original price without free dining was $3175.00 )

CM next to the one I was on phone with had a person who was on hold for 1 hour 40 mins Does not make sense how some people have to hold twice as long..at least it wasn't me this am. MY LUCKY DAY!!

That was probably me

So does that mean that the rush may be over? I am meeting DSis at 12 to book our magical gathering... we need 3 rooms- is there any hope for a value?

 

[Vickie46]

wow.. I can't believe the hold times.. that is so wow... I was calling to get extra nights added in May... I totally forget the free dining deal.. we arent' going then.. but that is great for you guys!

 

[ExPirateShopGirl]

Only one code per reservation, despite what has been posted. My AAA agent switched my ressie this morning. I gave up my AAA discount for the free dining.

That's great!

If you don't mind my asking, were you able to keep your AAA discount on the room with this pkg or did you lose that for the free dining?
