Lowest price I have seen!

Yes, and they've started asking for ID upon check-in too. Last year we stayed at Coronado Springs ($786 for 8 nights) and I had to show my airline ID when we checked in--that was a first for me, I've never been asked to show it at check in before. For those that don't know, airline employees get 50% rooms at WDW. Even though we live in CA it is cheaper for us to go to WDW because of that discount, and the fact that we don't pay for plane tickets.
The last two DC's we went on were both booked last minute at the interline rate, we didn't have reservations already that we had to try and get the adjustment for. Our next one is full price because it is a family reunion and we wanted connecting staterooms.

We booked our rooms at the regular rate and were told by Disney we would get refunded should the discounted interline rate become available, they said that was the way most people did it. We are planning on going whether or not the interline rate becomes available, if this is not the case, I wouldn't have booked rooms ahead of time. These rates are for airline employees, you must have an emplyee number, usually fax something on company letter head, and whatever other requirements they have to prove you work for an airline. Disney cruises usually come close to selling out, and competing with the interline rate, usually a Florida resident discount, and a Disney Employee discount, all fighting for a few rooms. I am calling practically everyday to see if they have opened up our sail date yet.

Waltworshiper--what is your sail date? Just to let you know we got interline rates the week of Thanksgiving a year and 1/2 ago. If you are persistant you will probably get it. I called every morning and evening M-F. I learned that they don't post discount rates over the weekend. Good luck!

You can change an existing res to the interline rate if it is available and you are eligible. We are going through this now

Do you know if I can do this with DU? We are currently booked through them. I'm not holding my breath though, because we have Cat. 7's and I don't think those get discounted as there aren't very many of them.
