Free Dining 2014 Discussion ~ Part 2

[Brassy5000]

I remember, like 45 minutes ago, thinking .... as if I'd hear the full loop of this music ... and then Pooh came back on...and then Indy ...

B5K.....

 

[Happy Mama Shel]

Is everyone happy? Somewhat?

YES!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I feel so invested in waiting for FD news... now what to do with my free time?

 

[kiko17]

Does anyone have the final list of dates that are included at this time? We will be waiting until general availability and I wanted to plan. Thanks!

Is everyone happy? Somewhat?

Yes!!! And thank you as always for the inside info

Joe, you are the best and being on hold for 1 hr + and listening to the disney "loop" is awesome. I have a twisted ankle and I'm "laid up," so having something to do is great. I work with animals...if I went to work now, they'd smell the weakness...so, alas, I'm at home...on hold.

 

[Hk331]

Loving all the comments, makes being on hold for 64 min not so painful lol

 

[moepanz]

one hour and 3 mins Cell at 28% uggggggh

So here's maybe some hope for those of us in the hold of 400 people. What are the chances that the 400 people in front of you are booking the same room, same resort, at the same dates? Suspecting, within the confines of what is excluded, everyone should be just fine and get what they want!

Now . . . CM, pick up the darn phone!!

I'm a little disappointed about not getting POR but now we get to try a new resort and that's exciting. The biggest thing is that I'll be at WDW on my birthday - what a present

 

[SunnyDey]

YES!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

this!

 

[evcollins]

An hour and three minutes later, we're booked!!
We chose Coronado since POR was excluded. CM was very helpful and had different prices than I did, which were cheaper! All that Disney math and I still got it wrong.

Hoping we will enjoy Coronado...never been, internet went down this am so I couldn't look it up....we'll have a great time with our FREE DINING no matter what!

Good luck, everyone!!

 

[chewysmom]

Quick question-when it goes to the general public next week, I'll be able to book online-right? What time does that normally hit the Disney website? still 7 am? earlier?

Any disadvantage to booking online? Thanks!

 

[Houston86]

Wow this board is smoking this morning!!! Wishing everyone pixie dust

 

[jillandvaughn]

Our October dates (14-21) are not included in FD promo.
Oh wise ones, do you think more dates will be added? Or do you think there may be a room discount option?

 

[mommyof3princess27]

i got through!

 

[TheRatPack]

what is sad I'm still not 100% sure what is going to come out of my mouth when I finally get through. I could switch to POP and save $$ and my ressie that I have almost paid for will probably be nearly done or switch to CSR and probably owe a bit more. I'm now leaning towards POP and having the ressie nearly if not totally paid for.

I just went with what came out first LOL...modify existing reservation to add FDing and 1 night. I really am toggling about staying at CSR though for 100.00 more than AOA. The kids absolutely LOVE Pop and are really down about not staying there this year but with my oldest dd being 18 it would make us lose the guaranteed connecting rooms if we booked two rooms there. At least at AOA we can walk to POP. It's so difficult not taking advantage of CSR though, we've never stayed at a Mod before.

 

[arilvdc]

Well I've only been on hold for 9 minutes now since I was disconnected earlier. Maybe there's 4000 people now.

 

[jennilouwho]

I am talking to a CM after an hour! Don't give up hope!

 

[bigmama101]
