Free Dining Oct-Dec Is Here!! Dates Confirmed!!! ~ Part 2

[Fivemuggles]

Nervous here!! We are a family of 5, and basically have to stay in POR - deluxes or even 2 value rooms would be out of our budget. With POFQ and the others being excluded I'm very worried that POR will not be available! Eeeek!! I have a WONDERFUL TA who I know is right on top of things- but there's still that nervous anticipation! Can it be tomorrow already!!?

This is what I'm wondering too. I'm all worried...lol

Also a concern of mine We're all paid for with dining, and 6 day parkhoppers and all ADR's done. Someone said it wouldn't affect my adr's though, which I'm hoping their right. I'm not looking forward to arriving one day and then checking out and checking back in the next day with ADR's at Crystal Palace the same day REALLY not happy and comfortable with that

Anyone able to help answer this question? Or point me in the right direction for the information. Thanks!

The ADRs will stay in place, but you will be charged for the prepay meals when the dining plan they are attached to is cancelled.

I am going Oct23-28. I checked my dates again and it is saying there is no availability for my party size, which is 5+infant. Is it possible that all the AB rooms are booked? When I change the amount in my party, it is telling me that they only have Garden view and Pool view available, as well as some Royal rooms. I am going to Disney no matter what, but I was really hoping for a discount beyond aaa, and I chose late October bc I thought crowds and rates would be lower! I am now losing hope!

Your ADR's are not tied to your room reservation. You will be able to keep all of your ADR's regardless of what happens with your room as long as your dates are the same ofcourse.

I do not know the answer but if it were me before dropping the DP I would call and pre-pay for CRT , not sure what the other ADR is but would also pay that too if it is normally pre-paid if not on a DP just to be on the safe side

My TA emailed and said to check my email in the AM for a "Make you happy" email

My TA tells me NOTHING!! I won't be going through them, or at least her, anymore

Since this is all about free dining. I have a quick question. Can you convert a TS to 2 QS?

If you feel like you'll have TS credits left over, then maybe do one signature meal that requires 2 TS credits. We usually include one or two signature meals, because regular DDP can be a bit too much food for us. Doing signature meals helps us try restaurants we normally wouldn't, and we don't feel like we're leaving money on the table by not using all our credits. (no pun intended).

I just called, for fun, in hopes of some early pixie dust. After being on hold for the longest I've ever been, I got a bubbly CM named "Princess!" I just knew this was fate!!!! Alas, though she said "Pixie dust to you!" it came at the end of the call following the words, "No free dining right now. I heard it was on social media sites but they are wrong. Check back later this month. I have my fingers & toes crossed for you!"

Oh well. Looks like an early morning for me tomorrow.

Will they have me rebook or can they just add FD to my room & tix package? If I don't have to rebook, can I just add it online tmw or is it better to call? I do NOT want to mess this up!

Ok peeps, all I've got to say is go out there and ROCK those phone lines tomorrow morning!!! Good luck and I will be cheering you all on! : )

I feel so sorry for the Disney operators tomorrow morning

good googley-just tomorrow come on already.

We already have a standard room booked at POR, so I know we at least have a room- but with 2 of my 3 kids being Disney adults the FD would save us almost 2,000! If we can't get it we will prob move offsite - which would be sad, but probably cheaper.

Don't ya love emails like that?!

My TA has been checking in with me on almost a daily basis all week. And reminding me not to stress, that she's got everything handled for tomorrow. She has been the best, she did all my ADR's, booked my MNSSHP, and has kept me very much in the loop about the upcoming FD/RO discounts, even though we booked back in February. Well, now that I think about it, she was actually on a Disney Destinations trip when my ADR window opened, so she had me give her a wish list a couple of days before she left and she had a coworker book them for me. That coworker had emailed me by 7:30 on the first day of my ADR window with everything on my wish list booked and she gave me all the confirmation numbers.

I am positive that I'll be using her for every future Disney trip.

Woo hoo! Is it crazy of me to be watching this thread in anticipation of a late oct/early nov 2014 trip? I'm planning for next year. Plus I have another year to rack up premier Disney Visa rewards. Good luck everyone!!

It's a sickness! Lol!!! The only cure is "MORE DISNEY" !!!!!

 

[magictam2]

I wonder what normal people are doing now...

Me too, cuz obviously I'm not normal. I was fortunate enough to get a pin for my Nov 30 check in. But I'm hang up on following this thread to the happy ending! I'm as excited for tomorrow as everyone else and I'm not calling in.

I hope everyone get the best deal they can and have a magical vacation.

Wow, that does sound like some awesome service I hope we all get what we're needing tomorrow......maybe they will open up some more room categories last minute so we're not all funneling in to the top 2 or 3 resorts left in the value/mod categories.

I had my dining res and then changed everything before and was not charged (including Royal Table and Backyard BBQ). As long as there is still a dining plan you should be fine with keeping the res and not being charged.

 

[wunkmom]

Well, I'm off to bed, because I'm going to get up early to check this board in the morning to find out how everybody's doing.

Good Luck! Good Luck! Good Luck to EVERYONE! I sure hope everyone can get the deals they want! May the Pixie Dust be ever in your favor!
