Im new, Hi there.

Hi everyone,

I've been lurking since Christmas when DH (40) and I (33) took the kids (my step kids DD, 16 and DS, 15) to Disneyland for Christmas.

Not to toot my own horn, im a California Native, I know ALOT of about Disney in CA.

DH and I have decided to fulfil our dream of going to WDW together this September, I have yet to book. We plan on staying on-site. Mid-Level Accomodations.

Now, I have oodles of questions.

Is it even remotely possible for first time WDW visitors to get Free Dining? I see alot of mentions of it. I simply cant piece all of the information together to get a clear picture on how to get a smoking deal. (If that even exists for us).

We are planning on staying around 10 days. Any help is appreciated.

We are leaving the 2 teenagers at home.. This is a 5 year late honeymoon lol.


Thank you ahead of time for all of the help.. I look forward to meeting everyone and making new friends!

Hi & welcome

One of the best ways to find out if you can get a smokin discount right now is to call disney directly ask if you have a pin code attached to your name or if you are eligible for any special packages that are valid during you stay. Do this asap most discounts are getting ready to expire (one personnal discount right now is 40% off room rate. If Disney doesn't have one connected to your name make sure they have all of your info and its correct. Now about free dining as of right now it was offered in the UK for the dates 8/5-9/30, and has also been offered as a bounce back special for guest who stayed on disney property during the month of Dec and booked before they left. Right there is alot of speculation and prayers that disney offers free dining again this year for the general public if they do the dates wil be the aug-sept dates. I hope this has helped if you need anymore info send me a PM I will receive it before I check back with this post. Have a Magical Day!

Welcome to the Disboards! I am new here myself (I joined last summer but did not start to post until christmas time). I love these boards and I'm sure you will too! As far as where to stay in the moderates, I can only tell you what my family (DH42, me38, DD9 and DS7 at time of next trip) has decided to do, and that's CSR (Coronado Springs Resorts). From everything I've read, and a friend that has stayed there several times, it seems like the perfect place for my family. To see great descriptions of CSR and all other resorts, may I suggest Deb's unofficial website, at allearsnet.com. I LOVE this web site. It is full of info just like the Disboards! Please feel free to PM me if I can help you with anything specific. I've only been once, but I am a Disney junkie and will help you the best I can! Have fun planning your trip!!
