What does bouncing back mean? I called starting at 6:59 and kept calling until it didn't say they were closed... Still on hold

When you stay at an on property resort they usually have a thing on the table for bounce back...it is usually if you book your trip next year while still on vacation you get discounts like room or free dining

Got through about 715. CM was super nice and added it easy peasy. Asked for the first 6 digits of my DV. I am so excited cause last year AoA suites were excluded and I had to stay there cause that's where mom wanted. Good luck to all

I am following this thread closely for my relatives who want to go in the fall.
I just want to confirm: Did POR get excluded from the resorts available?
Thanks,
Maria

Bummer, booked to arrive 10/25 @ POR - now no free dining

Still on hold 62 minutes and waiting to see if they can get me better deal. Been doing this same week for years...any one got another suggestion for family of 5?

Value with QS and then pay to upgrade to regular dining an option?

So it looks like I'm going to have to wait until the 7th for the general public I, going to wake up early to call (just like everyone I'm sure). I live in Idaho where is the office located? I know they open at 7 but I'm not sure what time that is for me. Also, we are booked for POR so I'm super bummed. I'm wondering if it'll cost me the same to switch to WL with free dining or maybe once everyone leaves POR if they will include it again. Ugh so many decisions, its actually stressing me out!

Once it goes live to the GP, you can book on the Disneyworld website at midnight May 7th! No need to call and wait

For us (5 persons but youngest is 14- so 5 "disney adults" when it comes to dining and tix) 2 rooms at POP with the dining plan upgrade ended up being $800 less than 1 room at BC but POP has double beds and we have 2 DS's age 17 and 22 sharing a bed. AoA suites was the cheapest next to POR, but our kids being older, there was not much desire to stay in such a heavily themed "animated" room. The cabins in FW is also an option, but no food court or other resort amenities. Also up for consideration was Wilderness Lodge Deluxe Studio (sleeps 5 but again, dbl bed for DS's) and the Dolphin (but no magical express). So we ended up going with BC. Came out the same as if we'd stayed at POR and paid for our meals (~$2500 for 10 days) out of pocket!
