Free Dining 2013

[black562]

Hey guys, I thought I'd start a post for the Free Dining 2013 promotion. I have a separate post for the room only discounts so we can discuss each one separately. I hope this can be a drama-free thread as well.

Think happy thoughts guys.

Once again the free dining in a nutshell:

Dates: September 2-25

Available to book: May 9 (Visa holders should be May 6)

Values recieve Quick Service (which they can upgrade for $18 a day for adults and $3 a day for children)

Moderates and Deluxe recieve the regular dining plan.

Most resort categories are included, at varying degrees of availability. While Little Mermaid rooms appear to be available...expect VERY limited availability for these (many dates are already sold out completely as it is).

Thanks. So if I call on the morning of the 6th (dis visa holder) and they say they know nothing, do I press or accept that maybe cardholders don't get it in advance?

Well, I expect it will be posted here after the first person has had success. The Visa dates can vary and are usually on a Thursday. Of course this promo is on a Thursday so it will happen earlier. The summer promos were Tuesday and visa got in on Thursday, much more than three days.

subscribed... and it will happen... positive thoughts. My dates are not until Nov./Dec. so my fingers are crossed for you all for September

I just want to step aside and say that, regardless of what some may say, anything can change until the official announcement. It has happened before and can always happen. So please don't make any permanent changes until the announcement is official. I'd hate to see someone lose money based on a post, even if it is 99%.

Thanks for that. I like the fun of planning, just hate drama. Hopefully we can have some fun in here.

Drama free is perfect...adolescent he said/she said should be left at the playground. I just want to try and save as much money as I can on my trip and I don't care who says it first. Thank you so much for all of the information you supply. We are going in October, so ill be waiting patiently for discounts to be released

Sept 7th -10th for me and all my ressies are made as well. I can't wait

 

[black562]

Regardless of what some say,I would never tell anyone to change their flight or anything permanent like that until the information is made official.

We're going October 26th until November 2nd. We are planing to spend Halloween night at MK doing the MNSSHP but now that I found out the resorts do fun things on Halloween we may change our party night. We might as well make the most out of Halloween at WDW, right??

As long as you are happy to go either way, that's fine. Please PLEASE don't make any permanent changes until after the official announcement. Regardless of what may be said, anything and everything can change. I'm not sure how some would feel come May 9 if something were different, but I think it would probably be a bad day. I've always said to make plans, but never do things like flight changes based solely on this sort of information. We can be 99.9%, but that 0.1% can sometimes come back to bite.

I'm one of those that are hoping for the extension!! We are going 10/29 or 30...still open because we are driving...until November 10. Can't wait! Are we allowed to post our dining ressies here when we get them? Just for fun to see what we will all be eating? I know on the other thread some people complained. I know if I see a post that doesn't interest me, I just scroll past it...not complain that it is there. (Which by the way takes up more room that could be related to the subject at hand...just sayin') Anyway, can we talk about our food? Or extra activities like parties? It's just fun and passes the time in the waiting game.

 

[Rhody Red]

We've been booked (and paid in full) for a while, for September 7th to the 14th. I'm hoping that this does happen, because we'll upgrade from ASMo to Caribbean Beach, and also be able to extend to the 17th.

Fingers & Toes crossed. Thank you for keeping us in the loop!
