Free Dining Update from my CM

[hollieplus2]

I just called to see if there were any codes attached to my name or if there were any promotions coming up. She said not right now but be on the look out the end of this month to early April. She said last year they did free dining. Just to see what she would say I said I would rather have the room discount than free dining as the resturants won't be as packed. She said, "I'm sorry but I really think that will be the promotion this year. I would make sure you make your ADR's 180 days out since they will be filling up for that time." Looks good.

ok, thats good news. Lets hope it's right. Here's my question...I have included the dining plan in my reservation, will they deduct those charges from my balance due? Oh yeah, we are talking September right?

 

[hollieplus2]

I asked her about that. She said that when you call they will redo your reservation. If your resort doesn't have any rooms left for free dining they will tell you what resorts are available. It's not automatic, you have to call to get the promotion and there are only a certain amount of rooms per resort that will be available for it. Hope that helps.

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know. I'm really hoping. I am also hoping that POFQ will be available since we have our hearts set on it. I really don't want another mod but I will for free dining.

I know the anticipation is going to kill us all. I went on the chase/disney website this morning and recently when I check disney offers, nothing shows up except a message telling there are no offers. Today the picture categories are all back and it looks like maybe they are getting ready to start adding some offers. OK, I'm overly optimistic here, but I'm grasping for signs. The last CM I talked to also told me to keep a look out during the beginning of April for a promotion (and she mentioned the free dining).

I think last year it was August and September. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong. I'm not 100% sure about the exact dates.

I know it ended Sept. 30th but we checked in on the 26th and stayed thru October and our free dining did stay the entire time we were at WDW.

Remember CMs do NOT have any real inside information. They are going based on thier "gossip" which can be just as "reliable" as the gossip on here.

 

[hollieplus2]

I'm not listening... I can't hear you... We WILL have free dining. I just know it. We have to. I must have free dining. I will wish it so.

We are 5 "adults" according to Disney so this will save us nearly $1,400 for our 7 night/8 day vacation. YAY. . .I hope its for real. . .doesn't really matter because we are going anyway but I sure hope we can save the money. . .we will be upgrading if we do. . .

Sounds good!! Let's keep wishing for Free Dining Pixie Dust!!!

I posted on here somewhere about a conversation I had this weekend w/ a CM. It was along the same lines to look for a promotion over the next month or so.


Here's hoping BABY!

 

[scrappinmom]

I hope so too !!!! The only way we're going again this year is if dining is free! Here's hoping for loads of pixie dust!

Well, I guess its about who you talk to. I talked to a CM today (I changed a room only rate to a package) anywho, she told me that the rooms are booking like crazy - All Stars Movies is almost booked for August 2007 - and she doesn't think that Disney will have the need to add FREE Dining. I hope she's wrong, but from one CM to another, you get a different story.

What is the chase/disney website?

Keep wishing, keep wishing

Maybe there is a CM with the power to give us all free dining and our postcards or e-mails are on their way

This is the year of a million dreams right?
