Chiming in! As others have mentioned in Ep. #1039 of the DISUnplugged, Pete claimed that Free Dining might make a return in the next few days (Monday July 8th to be exact, but any time up until July 16th was forecasted) as a result of the wide-open availability through fall 2019. It makes sense -- light crowds are estimated everywhere but HS, so I'm sure they'll make a last ditch effort in increasing attendance. I'm keeping my fingers crossed in hopes of booking a stay for this November!
Since I've never booked FD...is there a way to know right away if it is released other than stalking the site?
*If* it is released, do you have to wait until then in order to cash in on the promotion (or can you book ahead and claim the promo afterwards)?
