Free Dining 2014 Discussion

Anyone?? Before this gets lost!

If you guys are in the same room yes but he would need to be counted in pay wise with the room and tickets since the 20th with you, not the 22nd. But he doesn't have to physically be next to you at check in

This promotion should be available as soon as Thursday, May 1 for Disney Visa holders and Wednesday, May 7 for the general public. The likely dates included are: August 31 - October 3 October 26 - November 1 November 9 - November 20 December 12 - December 23 Note: First post has been updated.

is there a special phone number I should call at 7am? How happy am I that I haven't booked airline tickets yet? Happy dancing! Happy dining!

 

[DisMama5]

If I check in on October 20th and stay thru oct 29th does that mean we are out for fd?

yes unfortunately it looks like oct 26 is when FD picks up again for October

 

[DisMama5]

Thanks black your awesome with this stuff! And everyone else

Does anyone know - is this new for them to release all these months of FD at once, isn't it usually split up? Either way wonderful news.

Thank you! We will be there for about 9 days and are buying about 7 days of park tickets, so all that is good. He just started a new job and doesn't get a lot of time off yet! 2 costs the same as 1 in a room anyway, so none of that matters!

Oh this makes me happy!! We are going 11/15-11/23, but I think I will add a day with free dining! My Disney Visa is in my hubby's name but I have a car with my name on it. Is it ok if I call? Do you just call the regular Disney # or is there a special # for the Disney Visa?

 

[mandis77]

Whoah!!! Was not expecting to see October dates yet. I haven't applied for my DV yet and it's too late now. But my dates are safe so I am happy. The phones will be NUTS the day of GP release huh? Will we get a heads up here?

Big thanks to Black, smitch, and all those in the know. You all are rock stars!!

So if all of the FD for the rest of the year is coming out Thursday for Visa holders......I think I better have the entire day free to sit on hold. Clearing my schedule now from 6:55 on

 

[martinmont]

So excited, I need to re crunch numbers now!!

You can use his card as long as he is on the reservation, I've done it many times. Just the regular Disney number to call-

for the GP release we could book online at midnight, correct?

 

[ivey_family]

I love the way you are looking at it! I'm going to think that way too.

We're in the same boat. Our dates aren't covered. Maybe there will at least be a room only discount for us! Or the ever elusive PIN. It's never helped before, but maybe we'll get lucky this year.

Sigh.

Regards,
C.

 

[martinmont]

Would we have predictions for RO as well?

 

[Kate and Family]

Could this be the first round of FD for Oct - Dec? What is the chance that another round will come in late July-early August (the usual dates for release)?

 

[mh1973]

So is this correct, If I check in on Nov 20-26, I would get free dining my whole stay?

 

[LindseyLou2222]

Wow, Disney curveball. Luckily, it's going on during out September trip!

It has happened at least once before.

 

[minniemous]

I would like to know this too!!

Last Year I booked under a FD Pin I received in the mail. Our check in date was the last day of set of dates and we stayed for 11 nights. Well after we booked our FD trip I received another PIN for % off the room. We kept the FD. As I recall they did also offer a % of the room offer at the same time as the FD Offer in the website special offers.

So I guess no one has received a FD Pin in the mail yet for September -December?

Also Just wondering has anyone ever received a PIN via email???

That is what I was wondering as well. Not everyone is as crazy as we are with our mega-planning! Who knows--they could always open up more dates once the time gets closer?!

Minnie, I have never received a PIN in my life that I am aware of, and am subscribed to just about everything! I know that is a common plight, but I wish that the Big Dis would throw this fella' a bone!
