So if i check in on October 2, will this qualify me for free dining?

 

[littlebirdie]

So sorry should have included the start date 8/15-10/2 for the 2010 season.

Thanks littlebirdie! I am feeling very positive about your "hunch".

All good things to those who wait patiently.

Is it me, or does that sound like more than a "hunch"?

 

[black562]

I could be way off, but sounds like a bit too many facts to me to be someone messin with us. Of course I guess I could make up some similar facts, but I like what I hear, so I choose to believe.

Your worrying will be short lived. The bounceback began on August 15, so look for that date again. As in the past, as long as your check in date falls in that time period, you'll be eligible for the promotion.

And no, I'm not a little birdie, but notice there are now two of us saying the same things?

Edit: to correct a date.

Thanks Joe!! You are the one who made me stop worrying last night and now I feel even more confident, thanks to littlebirdie!!!!

Wait until you have the free dining promo in hand, then you can thank me.

And I promise I am not littlebirdie, nor do I know who he/she is. Don't want anyone to think I'm double posting or anything.

Remember though guys, its all fluid until its made official...

So far I think people who are anxious should read one of black562's (sorry if I screwed up the number) post it will calm you down. As well a reminder to everyone that this thread is pure SPECULATION. With that said I do hope it happens ...and that we are speculating right. But its not worth losing sleep over , because I have never first thing jumped on Free Dining I usually wait a month and such and have no issues getting a standard or preferred room at Pop Century.

But to be a hypocrit and add to the speculation I made my ADR's today as I have booked my trip and I am goin Free Dining or not, and a CM said its good Im making my reservations and she said she heard rumors Free Dining is next week she told me not to quote her on it, but she had just heard rumors. So everyone is in the dark really ...so we shall see what happens next week! I think by the end of next week everyone will have a greater sense of what may be happening with Free Dining situation of 2010.

Your post just made me so happy! I want the deals to come out!

I wouldn't look at the UK offers, their offers are different and have been different in the past. They have a longer time in which to book their Free Dining and their offer is for a longer period than the one for US and Canada. They are also able to get tickets longer than 10 days.

If anything, they'll do a tiered system with values getting quick service and mods/deluxe getting regular dining. The values hold a great deal of people and they don't want those setting empty either. Plus, it means they get rack rate on the rooms, which is a good deal for them.
