Free dining 2014

[chellewashere]

Yeup. I really didn't want CS this time. The place is really big, but the other mod on the list only has double beds and for us 4 in our 60's the Finding Nemo in double beds (2 rooms) isn't quite what we were going after. We don't want to go up to deluxe and none of the values have queens, so it is what it is and I will still laugh and have a blast and enjoy it because I will be at Disney. I have always wanted POFQ and was willing to move to PORS if I had to, but......t is what it is and I will still laugh and have a blast and enjoy it because I will be at Disney.

I had heard that CBR was supp. to do a refurb here soon and that they will be upgrading to queen beds

So are all of those resorts excluded for every date free dining is offered? Will it not differ from week to week based on what is already booked for that time span?

Ok, I am new here (first post actually) and I have a question about FD. I am prebooked at All Star Sports for September. What happens when the dates are released? Do I just call to have it added or should I not of prebooked because it has to be a new reservation? Sorry if this has been asked before. Thanks in advance!!

I have a family of 5, I was hoping that PORS was included, I thought that would be an option available for larger families that is a bit cheaper in price. So is that confirmed that is PORS excluded?

I believe that this is the main reason POR is excluded. Families of 5. Too big of a discount for Disney to continue.

We are arriving November 10 and staying through November 19 at WL so if all is correct we will get Free Dining .... Yippee! Is there a place to see what the total discount is for 9 days of free dining? Or a per day discount and I can figure it out? We are going on our first adult only trip with the 2 of us.

Thanks in advance : )

can you only get free dining if you are traveling within the dates? For example, If I arrive on October 31 and am staying fro 4 nights, will I only have dining for the first two days?

Pick am new too so ((( Hi Hi Hi and welcome ))) I saw reading on a previous page that all you have to do is call and ask for Free Dining to be added to your current reservation, super easy. I changed my resort awhile back and just called and they made the change. I even kept my original reservation number ect.

I hope this helps : )

I'd hate to be a booking cast-member on these days, with every idiot and their brother calling in repeatedly to see if they can get free dining. I find the repeat phone call claims to be obnoxious and rude. JUST WAIT.

Just talked to Chase, they confirmed it's releasing tomorrow, and gave me the promo codes. Dates are as Black has previously stated.

Changing my dates! I can celebrate my birthday a week late.

If you read back a few pages I think my answer is right .... The day you arrive is your start to free dining. As long as your first day is in the free dining period you get the entire stay ( up to 14 days ) included in free dining. So your good : )

I bet their phones are ringing like crazy with the same questions ... Yikes that's one job I wouldn't want . Agree everyone needs to be patient and wait until May 2 if your and disney Visa card holder or May 7 for the general public release.
Plus a lot of info. is on its thread if peeps read back a few pages. Bummer this thread will be pokey slow once everyone has their reservations secured since they are releasing FD through the end of this year.
Thanks for everyone's help on questions for us newbies : )

*** I found the answer to my own question, so I'm good ***

At least until everyone booked at PO switches to get Free Dining.

Lol!!

I just called chase. I'm a premier disney Visa card holder. I was told "targeted card members" only will be getting email. Other card members will have to wIt till 7th with the general FD offer. Fairly annoyed

All dates? We already have our plane tix booked for Nov 21. I am planning on changing mine & going a day earlier. I spoke with American Airlines and as of yesterday it was only $116 more to change, but she said, "PLEASE call as soon as you know!"

We are a family of 6 so we are always out of luck. Booking 2 rooms costs more than free dining usually.

Have you looked at the cabins? Could be a good option for you.

Yeah, even Chase thought it was going live today. They were handing out details over the phone to a bunch of folks. There was a big miscommunication between Chase and Disney on this one. It will go down as the biggest snafu in promo history for sure.
