OMG I just had the ABSOLUTE BEST THING HAPPEN!!!!

So I called and got an awesome person who really knew what she was doing!! She looked at my reservation and said I wasn't getting the AP discount so that was why I couldn't get the meal plan. She tried to make the changes and the system was giving her a hard time so she said she wanted to try and just do a new reservation and I GOT THE BC with a meal plan!!!! So bye bye to GF but it wasn't making sense, I want to spend time at F&W so staying near Epcot makes sense. Although I would have loved to stay at GF I will be happy at BC. And the best part is that it pretty much wound up being what I was originally paying at BWI!! I couldn't be happier right now .

I promise I will NOT mess with anything now!! I got BOG for dinner the night we go to MNSSHP before the party starts and the yachtman's for our final night like I originally had!! So everything is back to what it was with the exception of the hotel which is fine, I never stayed at either so I don't know what if anything I am missing .

The hubby just laughed and said I have it all screwed up and he hopes we get there and even have a room to sleep in . But I did check MDE and everything looks good!! See you in September!!!

I'm glad everything worked out and you are happy with BC..

I just want to clarify, in case you ever search for room discounts again, you can add a dining plan to ANY room-only reservation (rack or discounted) without adding tickets. It does not have to be an AP discounted room. It's called a "ticketless package". If any CM told you you couldn't get a dining plan because it wasn't an AP discounted room, they are wrong.

Great but real lesson learned here, get online and book it yourself. You can book the AP rate, add the dining plan and see the figures. It's so much easier than calling and letting someone who doesn't know what they are doing do it. Curious why you didn't just get on the website and try it that way at the start?

Yeah lesson learned, lol. I wish I knew why I call, I just do, lol. Since we stay at Pop normally I really just use the website too look at menus and figure out dining. Heck, I even call to book dining, lol.

True. The easy part about having an AP is you can do it yourself. You don't have to call to have a CM do it
