Got my question answered, but still happy we're booked for my 60 year old mother's first visit to the World! Whoo!

We are at POP Jan 30-Feb 5 w/FD (upgraded to DDP). It's the first time for our family and DS7 and DS4 are super excited (well, so are me and DH) Both DH and I have been to WDW before, but separately as children with our families. So excited to be back and even got all the ADRs we wanted.

Thanks DIS for all the help

I'd love a really good FW cabin discount! I love to stay at FW in the winter time, when it's actually cool enough to get out and walk in the campground. I got a very good rate last year, and I'm hoping for a repeat.

We are looking to go in early Feb and would love to stay at the cabins. What was the discount last year? I am praying for the 4/3 but saw the free dining and gift card and don't know if they will offer it. Really looking to go 8 nights, maybe they will start a 4/4!!!!

Count us in! We were originally going on a cruise in Feb, but we have a son with medical issues and decided it was better to be on land than on the ocean . Our son was granted a "Wish Trip" in March to WDW and Give Kids the World village. During our stay our family got the Noro-Virus and we only got to do two and a half days out of 6 at WDW. So we decided to come back and try it again! We have 6 kids, myself and my hubby, and my father who is my son's attendant. Which means there will be 9 of us, whew. We booked three rooms at the Movies resort, and all but my dad have the free dining. Dad got a "room only" deal b/c he is retired military and can get a very cheap ticket (this year it was $99 for a four day hopper) We are staying Jan21-30, 8nights 9 days. Our total was only about $4000 for all of us, but we are coming from Alaska, and our airfare will be about double that! Now that WDW gave out a discount I'd love to see the airlines follow suit

My family and I are also going the week of Marathon 2011. It started out with just my DH and I @ the CR. Then I decided to surprise the kids and take them along for their Christmas present. However since DH is also running 1/2 marathon with me we needed a sitter for race day. So, now my sister is going. Had to book 2 rooms so canceled CR and booked POFQ. Then I played with some Disney math and decided I could do 2 rooms fo r3 nights @ Pop, Jan.2-Jan.5 and then 2 rooms @ CR, Jan 5-Jan.8 with 1 being TPV and the other BLV. I am very excited

If WDW offers the Gift Card ($200@Value, $300@Mod & $500@Deluxe) in Jan 2011, can you use the gift card to pay for your hotel room when you check out? Or is it only good for food & souvenirs?
Thanks!

I'm booked for the Fall/Winer deal Jan 17-21 in a FW Cabin, but I'm waiting for the FL ressie/AP rates to come out so we can MODIFY and get the cabin cheaper. I like that we can cook our own food. I know everyone here raves about the food, but we're APs and come often & I've noticed that the food has really gone downhill. For what they charge its not worth it. I also hate the rushed feeling. Especially when you are eating and they come to you and ask you to take that survey-RUDE. Le Celier steaks have nothing on my hubby's grilled steak! We're excited the cabins have grills outside.

I would love to stay in one of the cabins! Have fun!

Me,too. The cabins sounds like so much fun!
