So this won't work if you have an annual pass?

 

[NMPensFan]

This is great. I was worried I might miss out since I don’t check in till sept. 29.

 

[SarahC97]

So this won't work if you have an annual pass?

It's a package, so you do have to buy tickets. So, probably not.

So this won't work if you have an annual pass?

People have said on here that they have been able to apply unused tickets towards annual pass renewal.

So this won't work if you have an annual pass?

This offer would work for you if you had an Annual Pass.

You would just have to buy additional tickets with the Hopper option as part of the BounceBack offer. Disney is not giving away anything this early. To get Free Dining, they want Rack rates and tickets with the Hopper option. It might not be a good value for you. Everyone needs to run the numbers and make an informed decision.

Note: Depending on the rules for these tickets, you may be able to keep any unused ticket entitlement(s) and use is when you renew your AP when it expires.

Wow the dates are really limited for next fall and all of summer has been added. Maybe a hint for Galaxies Edge but then again 3/4 of December is included. Very interesting that's for sure.

Yeah, I think it's just a reflection of how busy October and November have become.

I think that's amazing for December! I'm happy to see fd available again for Christmas and New Years.

Probably not. When DDP was a better deal for free dining you only needed a 1 or 2 day ticket. So I’d buy then use ticket for AP renewal.
Free dining sure has lost its value as now you only get QS when staying at moderate. Free dining never was a good deal for us when we stay at deluxe. Room discount was way better.

It's still a good deal and great to use for AP renewal. The difference is, you're just paying more upfront with a four day ticket.

Is there a minimum stay for this year to qualify for the 2019 free dining? We will be down for 2 nights in October but wondering is that’s enough.

You’re fine. I’ve booked a BB while on a weekend stay.

I'm going to assume you just need a one night stay now to book the bb. Is that what you mean? You've just needed a one night stay in the past.
