If they do it again in January I will most likely get this. But I never paid attention to the deal before. Do you pay for 4 nights, rack rate, 4 park hopper passes and 4 days of dining plan and then you get 3 nights of the same?

You pay for four nights, rack rate, get three free. Four day park passes, don't have to be hoppers if you prefer, get three free. Dining isn't included, if you stay for 7 nights, you pay for 7.
 
So IF it's done again in January & we check in on the 30th will it carry over to Feb? Just curious....and hoping :goodvibes
 

There were actually several rack rate prices during our stay on the 4/3 deal, with our reservation beginning the Wed. before Pres. Day and ending the Wed after. We paid rack rate for the first 4 nights (actually 2 different prices) and the next 3 nights were free (even though they were more expensive than our first night)

We could get 7 park passes for the price of 4 (didn't need them, so we just got 1 day passes in order to qualify for the deal), but you can decide whether to add on PH, etc. Dining plan was not included in the deal although you could get it ie. you would have to pay for 7 days of the DDP.

I'm hoping they offer it again too -- it was a great deal, especially when they include the $200 gift card.
 
You could actually get the 4/3 deal with the AAA rate! We had booked 4 nights for a long weekend trip, then the deal came out and I called AAA and they added the nights, no additional cost of the room rate.

We paid for another park day to be covered for 7 days in a park with the deal and then added the DDP, but we also got the $200 gift card! It was great! I am so hoping for a deal again this year.

I did not know that. Thank you !
I thought the AAA rate was for room only and for the 4/3, this was a 'package deal' with room and ticket....
I really thought we could not have both promotion at the same time..

I didn't think you could have 2 deals at once but may look into that when it comes up.
 
I'm totally new to all of this, but am trying desperately to plan a trip for my family in 2010. Does anyone know if you can do a split stay on the 4/3 promo? I'd like to do a value for 3 or 4 days and then end the week at a deluxe. Can this be done; and if so I assume that you would have to pay for the deluxe room and you would get the value as you free days??? I am so clueless about all of this. Any help is greatly appreciated!
 
No, you stay all 7 nights at the same resort. Splitting resorts will mean 2 separate reservations, each of which can be a 4/3 deal, but you'd pay for the first 4 nights at each resort.

You can also do 5 nights and get 1 free, or 6 nights and get 2 free, but the best value is 7 nights.

You can't stack discounts. I *think* the previous poster may have been mistaken on some point. Perhaps there was AAA rate available and they booked rack rate through AAA TA? If, somehow, it did get through, good for them, but it was fluke and I wouldn't expect it to happen again.
 
We also used AAA to book our package and we had to give up the AAA discount to get the 4/3 deal. We couldn't have both so we gladly took the 4/3 instead!!! ;)
