Free dining cancellation policy?

[yooperfan]

I have a couple of questions.
1. When does free dining offer for Jan./Feb. 2012 have to be booked by?
2. What is the cancellation policy?

I was going to hold out for AP discounts for WL, but now thinking maybe I should just book FD even though it's more expensive than AP room only with only 2adults going.

It has to be booked by 10/29. As long as you cancel by the final payment time (45 days before you arrive) they will refund the $200 deposit.

My free dining package included airfare. And I've already paid for the airfare, which is non-refundable ($950). But a CM made a comment to me that what I've already paid for includes both the air fare ($750) AND the $200 deposit.

So if I cancel my reservation and keep the airfare that I've already paid for, will Disney also refund $200 of that?

Let's say I can't get an AP discount for my standard room at WL for end of Jan./ Feb. If I have an AP, will they allow me to add purchased reg. Dining plan if I get a GP discount on the room?

Only if you you book a package, that includes tickets.

AP holders are only allowed to book a "ticketless" package when they are on an AP rate or rack rate. If you are using a GP discount, then you have to buy a GP package that would include both dining and tickets--though you only have to purchase 1 day tickets when you pay for dining.
