Free Dining Oct-Dec Is Here!!

[blo2002]

Getting up at 6:00 to book - I hope it goes quickly!

I'm just looking for two rooms at Pop - no specific requests - so I think it should be easy enough. This is why I got the Disney Visa all those years ago - I've used it for early booking a few times now.

And the reward dollars will pay for our MNSSHP tickets This is a dream trip for us, we've always wanted to go in the fall and take the kids to MNSSHP! I'm pulling the kids out of school for a week!

I will be on the phone at 6am as well. I need AoA Suite (not picky on which one but we have 5 of us. Never used the DV for a discount but love the rewards. Last trip they paid for our gratuity everywhere we ate with the meal plan and this year they are paying for MNSSHP and BBB for my DD3. Hoping we all get exactly what we want.

Can you imagine if we all call tomorrow and they say there is no free dining! YIKES!

Yes I can...that is why I have been having panic attacks all day!

You can pay gratuity with rewards?

How did you already get FD in October?

I called on mothers day to see if there was a pin attached to my account. The CM found one and applied it. It was a great mothers day gift!

Good luck to everyone tomorrow, I was lucky and received a pin, for the first week in Dec. I had to switch from POR to CB to use it, but that is ok, do not spend that much time at the hotel anyway. First time at a moderate always at value. Wishing pixie dust to all of you.

Good luck to all of you tomorrow!!!

My date nov 30 is not rumored to be included but I already had my good fortune. I was blessed by God last August by winning $10,000 from Burger King (a 30 day giveaway of prizes and $$$) which is the only way we can afford to go to disney. After my parents took us in 2011 I knew we had to go back so I have been entering free sweepstakes every day ever since. Hoping someday to win the one that includes a night stay in Cinderella castle suite. Anyway , good luck and try to sleep tonight.

That's awesome! I'm never that lucky lol

Well there's been enough different sources chime in on this, all of whom have never been wrong before.

Of course I always wondered if one day Disney would see all these leaks and push the date forward or backward just to mess around. But then again they're after bookings so it wouldn't make sense to do that since they know everyone is at a fever pitch by now to make reservations.

Are guests from the UK allowed to book these deals.......do you have a link to a website that can be used. Thanks

We had them loaded on our Reward card and used it just like a Credit card. I wouldn't have thought about it had it not been for the CM at Chef Mickey's suggesting it. When she saw it in my hand, I was looking for my cash and pulled it out, she informed me that it works almost everywhere in the world of Disney. We had $300 on the card and did 5 TS meals. Still had enough for DD to buy a souvenir. It was so nice because we came home to no new credit card bills.

we will be moving our trip up to arrive VERY late October 2. we're also going to move from AoA (Little Mermaid) to Pop. i'm hoping everything goes smoothly tomorrow.

good luck, everyone!

Wow, I think there's something wrong with me. I am creating a Word document for our daily itinerary and when I get to the day we check-out I get upset that we are leaving already. Like it's actually that day today and my vacation is over. I wish I could just buy a room at one of the resorts and get a job working at Disney and just stay there forever. One week just isn't enough.

I do the same thing. I even have a sad face on that day lol

And a massive phone line failure that occurs at 7am Monday morning nationwide!!!! Oh the misery!!!

Oh Mr funny here...lol

Good luck everyone!!!

We're booked for the week after Thankgiving and I thought for sure that would be included - not the crazy time right up to Christmas?!! Any word on if the dates we're going will be added in? We booked through AAA - will I need to go back through my agent to get the FD if it is offered?

Unfortunately, those dates are not likely to be included. It is believed that they sold well enough with the PIN codes that Disney doesn't need to offer them to the public this year. Anything is possible, though, so be sure to check here tomorrow morning when the deal is official. Your AAA agent is the only one who can make changes to your reservation. Good luck!

The last discount that went out and is expiring - I received an email from Chase - but I was informed that we will not be notified that way this time we need to go to this site disneyrewards.com/offers

Will the discount be posted early in the morning?

 

[smitch425]

Will the discount be posted early in the morning?

Not usually very early. Mid-morning is more likely. You will see confirmation here shortly after 7am. People will post that it is live while they are still on the phone with a CM.

I hope you all can help. We are going in Oct with another family and our reservations are linked. I have a DV so am hoping for FD tomorrow. Would I be able to make a $ 200 deposit on their reservation so they can get FD as well since our reservations are linked? If I can do I need their reservation number or just tell the CM that our reservations are linked? Thank you for all your help.

THIS IS JUST FYI: I hope the cm's are just sworn to secrecy until the actual time of the discounts to be dropped

I just called DV cust. service line 4:15 p.m cst Sunday - and the rep had no idea of any new discounts that are going out Monday - he did say that if something new was to happen it would be posted on Disney reward page of chase. I also called wdw customer service line and the rep was very nice and helpful - he also stated he knew nothing about new discounts/fd, but he said they never know the cm's come in one morning to an email that gives them the info and that's it.

 

[tddtex]

Sorry, Still trying to get an answer.

I currently have res. for PO Riverside for Check in on Nov 2nd.

I have heard rumors saying that date is inclused, and alsio that they are not.

Any confirmation???

Also, I am guessing that I will have to call on Thursday Am. What is the earliest time???

If I have a current reservation, will I likely get the free dining??? Or shoudl I have a backup resort planned??

Thanks!!

Did cast members know about it before the sept FD offer?
