Free dining for November 2011 question

[Get me to Disney!]

In the past, hasn't it been about March that they usually announce this to the public? Also, can you go by the dates that they are doing the discounted rooms now (the % off).........hoping for a third year of free dining - we can't beat that with a family of six!!!

Thanks

To be honest you can't go by or count on anything.

FD is a hit or miss thing, nothing is set in stone when they offer it.

The best you can do is subscribe to the Nov. code watch, book your vacation, budget for paying for dining and if it comes out.....jump up and down!!!

But other than that it is hard to guess.

We love FD, it is the best discount for our family as well.

For November? No, not March. It's generally announced in July or August for November.

Last year even the August/September free dining was not announced until the first week of May.

But everything we could guess about free dining went out the window when Disney released free dining through September 29, 2011, in September 2010. There's no way to anticipate if there will be another August/September offer or any offer for dates after September 29.

I don't think you can anticpate free dining being offered the exact same days as PIN code or bounceback room discounts.
