Free Dining 2013 Part 2 ~ The Sequel

[plutospalforever]

I was kind of hoping if I cancelled it might trigger a pin. I've heard of that happening. I guess I will just leave it.

I don't know if this will help you feel any better or not, but I and several others had packages already booked and then got a pin.

I have a Disney Visa question...

We just received ours... haven't even activated it yet.

Did I read somewhere that you can reserve your package with this card without making the $200 deposit, or did I dream that?

I believe that may have been a dream. Sorry. I have always used my Disney Visa to make a ressie and have always had to put $200. Now, Disney will hold your ressie for 7 days without a deposit.

Or, maybe you were thinking of the 6 month interest free for select packages at WDW?

I know that's true. I'm just trying to increase my odds in any way I can. I really need free dining so we can do the table service meals we are hoping to do.

Thanks!

I have been known to dream of Disney...

You can't cancel or it will screw up your dining. There is no reason to cancel anyway. You would just call and modify the existing reservation. You would keep the same resort reservation confirmation number.

Did this change? I have cancelled in the past and it had no effect on my dining reservations.

I know someone just asked something similar, but I'm waiting for Free Dining to come out as well, just like we all are (GP or pin, I'll take either lol!) But I have to make my ADR's on Saturday, so I'm going to book a room at Pop. Assuming Free Dining comes out and I add that to the room and it switches to a package, my ADR's will still be ok right? I'm pretty sure I've done this before...I'm not prepaying for any ADR's, no Hoop De Doo or anything like that for me, just your basic ADR's!

Make sure you remember to upgrade your dining plan from QS to "regular" dining plan...Otherwise you'll only have QS and no TS

Ok You guys have been busy. Lol instead of writing I'm going to hit the highlights.
Dole Whip *drool*
CALL NEVER BE AFRAID TO CALL!
Dole Whip *sigh*
TMNT & stop lights! I love it!!
DOLE WHIP!
I'd love an October meet up there are a few of us now.
Dole Whip.
I think I covered it.

I could go for a dole whip now, even though I've never had one. I've been sitting in 90degree humid weather all day cheering my kids on for their field day. My daughter had hers this morning and my son had his this afternoon. So something cold and fruity sounds delicious

I'm one of them I've had my pkg booked since October and got my FD pin on mothers day.

My cousin, who was so looking forward to a dole whip, just found out she is allergic to pineapple. She has MANY allergies, so is very used to having to skip things that look good, but I still feel bad for her.

That sucks...I'm sad for her Pineapple is one of my favorite fruuts and than muxed into an ice cream is just heavenly

She doesn't have to get the pineapple one they have just vanilla too at least at the one in Magic Kingdom!

Is the vanilla, just soft serve ice cream or is it different?

 

[scard192]

90 degrees here today and the next 3 days, a Dole Whip would so hit the spot.

 

[Katmat75]

Its just like the dole whip but without the pineapple juice they use different flavors of soda! I can't eat pineapple either so my DH always gets the original and I get the next best thing!

Hey, everyone! After a long day of chaperoning DS's class trip to a local museum/planetarium, AND making hundreds of copies for DD's teacher, I have some awesome news to share!

I got home from school today and was exhausted, so I jumped on the Dis for a bit while I put my feet up. I saw all of the reports of more PINs going out, and checked my email. Sadly, there was nothing. I decided to call, and I had the FD PIN!!! I couldn't believe it! In fact, even after the call, I was still in disbelief, but I now have my confirmation email showing that it is for real!

I hope everyone needing this PIN gets it. Don't give up!

Yay! I need to check again...was hoping to change our first night (RO) to free dining too.

And how does Roger feel about your adr selection

Ronald? He's just going to have to go along with it. LOL

Call T-Rex direct. You won't have a problem getting a reservation)))

Yeah, call them direct. They keep back a ton of ADRs for their own use.

I have never had a bad meal there. Ever. It is fun, kids love it. Their milkshakes are amazing! When I told my son we were going to Disney first thing he asked is if we could go there and how many shakes he could have!
