Hmmm, I am going in a few weeks. I was planning on using my Disney Visa while in Disney. Now it looks like I need to save at least $200. for a deposit to go back in Sept.!

 

[teslaaunt]

Im wondering if I added a night for my resort but didnt buy tickets or anything else. In other words, book 5 but only stay 4. Would that work and qualify me for free dining? We staying at POP so surely the room would only take alittle out of the free dining bonus. Gosh, am I making sense, and does anyone know if this would work?

 

[brooke1]

Nevermind found what i needed on another thread



I Got The Code

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I too called Disney VIsa...had to hear it for myself!!!! I had a very friendly lady who gave me all the same details that everyone else has gotten with the added "I can give you the phone number and code you will need in case you don't get the email".....she gave me the normal 407-939-1286 and the CODE IS ZHQ STARTING MONDAY. Happy Booking.

if you book 5 nights to get free ddp you only have to get 1 days base ticket to qualify.you can have more park days if you wish.Just make sure nothing is credited to room for last day or use express checkout so you dont have to be there

So will we have to charge it to our Disney CC? Or can we use a debit card(Visa logo). I still have my Disney CC account but I cut up the card a while ago so I don't have the exp date or code from the back. I have to have one reissued but that wouldn't be in time. If not I'll wait for the 12th.

I might do this too. 1 adult and 1 child
4 nights with paid dining & 4 day hopper $1058.51
5 nights with free dining & 4 day hopper $951.25
I would get the extra dining credits too. But how would it work with Magical Express? Would I have to arrange my own transportation back to the airport if we leave a day early?

ok, so since I already have 4 day park hopper tickets do I still have to purchase another day of base tickets?

I would just call Magical Express from your resort a day or 2 before you actually leave, and tell them you are departing a day earlier than expected and you need to change your reservation.

We've done this before with no problems, although it was to change our Magical Express return reservation to be later, not earlier.

Thank You! This might work out, although I would love to just stay the extra day but we'll have to see about that. I just don't want to miss out on the free dining. This will be the 3rd year in a row I've been able to take advantage of it.

 

[teslaaunt]

oh yeah, I forgot about magical express. They also already have my flight info in with my reservation, so they would already know when I was actually leaving. Do you think they would have a problem with that?

 

[ExPirateShopGirl]

You will need to put the deposit on the Disney Visa. You can pay the rest off how you like. They will know it's a Disney Visa by the first 4 digits of your credit card number.

I normally book through Dinsey's centrel reservations. Does that matter?
I wanted to wait to put anything on the Disney Visa so the 6 months interest free won't start until my trip starts.

 

[mking624]

Yes you do. You must book a package in order to qualify for free dining, and it's only considered a package when you have a room AND tickets booked (even if it's just one day's worth of tickets).

 

[paulh]

just wish disney would offer there cc top us in the UK

So is this only for Disney Visa holders, or is it something that everyone can get in on?


Andre

IF this is true (which it seems likely that it is), advance booking on Monday (4/9) would only be for Disney Visa cardholders. According to the information, it would be available to the general public on Thursday, 4/12.

contact your Disney bank.

You would need to use the Disney Visa.

You need to at least put the deposit down on the Disney Visa if you want the advance booking. They will know if it's a Disney Visa by the first four numbers on the card. You can pay the rest of the trip off however you'd like, but the deposit must be done with the Disney Visa. Otherwise you'd need to wait until the code went public.

Just got off the phone with a Disney CM : She said "It's Coming"!! And she emphasized you MUST have the Disney Visa to get the promo. My ressies are already made, and the deposit is on a different credit card. She said that is OK , but you MUST HAVE the disney visa. Sounds like they're going to check the numbers, etc of the card. She also did not know about the 5 day min. stray. She said in the past it was 3 days. She could not confirm when it's starting but here is OFFICIAL DISNEY CM confirmation that it IS starting!!

Yes, You have to buy a 1 day base ticket to make it a package
