Pop is actually a bit more expensive.Yes they are included. But would you consider POP instead? Same price but with better buses.

FYI coffee is free at all resorts. Just bring your old refillable mugs there is no rfid for coffe tea or water.
I've kind of given up on FD to be honest. If they're not offering it at the moderates my hope is that they will offer it at ALL value resorts. Ultimately, we do not want to stay at sports. I switched our reservation to movies. fingers crossed it's at all the value resorts. I also didn't see where it wasn't offered last year. Maybe I misread. Oh well.
I would rather be at All Star Movies also . From my understanding All Star Movies was excluded from free Dining last year . As of now we are booked in the Cabins but if Mods only get QS we will go to value and pay the upgrade for DDP .In the past has All Star Movies been included as a Value on the Free Dining program? We're booked at Sports, but really don't want to be there. Thanks!

Wonder why they blocked movies
Yes Movies is the most requested of the All Stars . I have been able to book free dining but that was in 2008 and 2010 . I would be surprised if it gets a discount this year . Movies and LM do not need the promo to fill the rooms .Because it's the more popular of the All-Stars and usually doesn't have issues booking by itself.
accurate.We can get military discounted 4 day hoppers ($209) and have a military discount on the room at Art of Animation. My sister is intrigued by free dining but I don't believe that there is any way that it would be as good a deal as we already have.
It's my understanding that we would have to book a rack rate room and add tickets?
I'm having one of those moments where I feel like I made a huge mistake lol! I can't decide if I should switch BACK to Sports. Grrrrr do we risk not staying at the resort we want to stay at and possibly miss FD, or do we book at the resort we don't want to be at in hopes we might get FD. I'm worried that if this all drops Monday that they will also increase the room rates. Because we are staying 14th through 23rd I can't risk increasing the room rates. Sigh. Am I crazy? (I also thought Movies would be included which is why I switched from sports but now after reading it seems like it will be the only excluded.)
You are correct you would have to do the math . Also remember the AOA has always been QS . We paid more to stay at AOA with free dining and the upgrade than to stay at BC . That was what the kids wanted it really is all about running the numbers . QS 48.19 per adult per night $20.88 per child 3-9 Regular dining plan 69.35 per adult per night $24.95 per child per night 3-9 . Then look at rack rate for AOA and prices of rack rate tickets.We can get military discounted 4 day hoppers ($209) and have a military discount on the room at Art of Animation.

I hate those moments! 14th - 23rd of...what? I don't think they have a history of raising the rates when a promo like this comes out but I could be wrong. I sure wouldn't count on ASM being included in this round of FD release. You can always wait until it actually drops and switch then, when you're reserving your FD. It'll just make it a lot easier if you know for sure where you're going if ASM isn't available. Something that always concerns me is availability. I'd hate to wait until that moment only to find out my second option is filled up. How much of a gambler are you?
November, sorry thought I said that!
I'm not much of a gambler. I would really like to have Free Dining. While it's not going to "make or break" our budget, it would certainly allow for a little bit more relaxation on the time before the trip knowing that our food budget is all but taken care of.
I guess I will stay where I'm at in hopes that I can transfer my reservation back to Sports is FD is offered during our trip dates. It seems we're there right when rumored to be offered. How often are the rumors correct? What are the Odds? The house always wins I work for a casino lol!!!, which is why I don't gamble. I hate this. Monday seems so far away!
I'll keep my eyes and ears open that for sure! And the House ALWAYS wins long term, that's why Casino's still exist!!!
This is true. That's because most people that walk into a casino (A) play the slots, which I despise, and (B) are morons. LOL
