Free Dining 2014 Discussion ~ Part 2

So is everyone leaving POR? Not really filling rooms.

 

[andeesings]

We're a family of 5...POR is always our first Go-To. So with it out of play we looked at AoA suites, ASmu Suites or deluxes. I just can't stomach paying ALMOST as much for a value family suite as we would a deluxe. We have stayed in the cabins too but I don't like the transportation situation at Ft. Wilderness so I think we're going to go deluxe. My first choice I think will be Boardwalk Inn. Second, Beach Club. Wilderness villas are a third choice but I've heard the walks to those can be killer.

REALLY?? I've stayed in a WL villa... It was the shortest walk of any place I've stayed in EVER!!!

Hoping enough people jump ship from POR to another resort, they'll add it to the promo because the resort will be completely empty!

I called another cm to see if i could add the code to me existing ressie but he said its not available yet but he said to call back tomorrow and i will be very happy with that code ..lol. He was trying to give me the usual spiel at the beginning about summer promotions but then stammered out the u will be happy about tomorrow and asked me to take the survey.

That would be great if enough people jumped ship from PORR that they put it back in for the GP on the 7th. We are that family of 5 and need to stay there.

this is my hope lol

 

[evcollins]

Was hoping, wishing and praying to get into POR because I don't really like my other options. Starting to possibly look into offsite options now.

Guess I'll be busy the rest of the night raking my brain on what to do before 7:00 a.m.!! What are you alternatives?

LOL you'd think they'd give it up now that they know Chase has handed out all the details. I mean it's not like its the internet and it will get spread around fast or anything.

As of today we were in POFQ, and told our TA to move us to CS. If PORS opens with FD then she will shift us once more. But the queen beds overruled any other options.

This was my thinking as well. Double beds are a deal breaker for me so I guess its CS for us too.

 

[oldtink]

I'm on Central time too - call at 6:00 AM (the rest I can't answer)

I believe it said the All Star Movies was excluded, not Music...yet.

 

[adcampbell27]

I am in the May 7th GP crowd. I am so worried that there won't be any rooms available at the moderate resorts when it's time for me to book

I like that idea!!

 

[JamieLM]

When I spoke w. DV earlier today, I confirmed that both POFQ & POR are on the list, i asked if she could forward me a copy of the offer and she did...the are listed. I called and spoke w/ CM later and she confirmed that I needed to call back tomorrow with my 5 didgit promo number and when I asked directly about POR & POFQ she said "it's included for DV members". They may not include in the offer to the general public, but that is good enough for me...

Can you share the moderate pin code please?

 

[deakam]

I'm not 100% sure on this one....I'm thinking, yes, they have opened up more resorts. I think it happened last year actually. BUT....don't hold me to that.
Anyone else have an answer here?![/QUOTE
I have never ever heard of them opening more resorts and I can testify from personal experience that POR an POFQ did not open more rooms later in the promo. I booked FQ and by mistake my friend booked POR. Until 2 days before we were to arrive we tried to get one or the other moved and we could not.

I don't know about there being different resorts for Visa card holders than there are for the general public but since Disney has a contract with Chase I would guess that if there were to be openings for ROR or FQ they would be opened for the visa card holders and not the general public. I think that everyone that was depending on POR should just make other plans. Not saying don't hope that all this info is wrong, just saying don't count on it.
