If they offer FD, is it good for all resorts?

[Mom2six]

We are going in September. I was now thinking of going with Saratoga Springs Treehouse Villas...hopefully. Is this a resort that would typically get FD if it is offered? I saw that someone who called and got a pin for FD had only a selection of resorts.



Thanks for your help.

I think that you might be referring to my post.

We had a week in mind, so I didn't ask if POP or POFQ (my top two) would be available another week. I have no idea how it works. For values he said ASMU and ASSports were available. For moderates Carribean Beach was available or he said I could get one of the Royal Rooms at POR (which was insanely expensive.)

If a general public offer comes out I am hoping disney releases more rooms at POP or POFQ, but I know those are two of the more popular ones anyway and disney may not need the discount to fill them up. I don't know what disney usually does because the PIN system seems so hard to understand. I know in the past with GP discounts they have offered a 25% of values with only 20% off at ASmovies and POP, 35% off at mods with only 30% at POFQ and some similar type 40/35% at certain deluxes.

So clear as mud, right?

It's usually good for all resorts, but the categories of rooms are limited. So they may offer, as an example, Pop, but they might not offer many standard rooms.

THV is a tough one because it's a very small resort. I was not able to get FD last year for someone who needed BLT--she kept the reservation she had and went full price because the location was important. If you want something really specific, just be on the phone that morning when it's announced.
