This makes me happy, because we really want to skip free dining, but we won't be going if there is no room discount. Is there a room discount or anything else happening this year during Jersey week?

I really don't want to go during Jersey week, but this is when our schools are closed for the Monday and Tuesday. I guess we could take the kids out of school the week before and go the last week of October then they'll get 2 extra days at WDW

Yep - they have 25% off values, 30% off mods and 25%-40% off deluxes (depends on which hotel) for all of November, except 11/23-11/26. Don't see why it wouldn't be the same next year!

Booked November 8-15. Hoping for a little Disney magic...would love if free dining was extended, but I'll take a discount...anything!

Someone posted on another thread that there was a pin good through the middle of December. Since it was a reply to someone asking about pin codes good after 2/11, I'm assuming they meant December of 2011. Has anyone seen or received a pin codes with dates for November of 2011?

Cool we want to go 11/5-11/13 next year and I priced Pop and POFQ and with these discounts it is only a $237 difference so we will go to FQ! Now I'm itching to book it!

I wish I had a pin!!!!!! I want to book! I know I can and change it but I like knowing the price! I like seeing the $$$$ saved! I am starting to see discounts for April, we always go in April!!!! I am sooooo tempted to book April! I really want to go in Nov.! I want to see the Xmas decorations!!! Of course all of the characters dressed up for Xmas! Had to visit to keep myself from booking April!!!!!!

We are trying to plan a whole family vacation for November. It will be DD's first trip and all her grandparents and aunts and uncles want to go. Hope a deal is announced soon so we can still get the resort we want...

I got an email pin last night good for bookings through June 5, 2011. Hopefully something for fall will be following for all of us!

I got the same thing. Hopefully around Christmas, when these PIN codes & current offers expire, we'll see some new offers with extended dates.

 

[weswife]

I received the same pin today! Its good until June! I played with dates but I really want to go in Nov.!!!!!! Lets hope we all get a pin for Nov.!!!!

OK - in all of my years of Disney travel and planning I've never received an email pin. What am I doing wrong?

I hear you - I was in the same boat. I did what another poster suggested...went to the Disney site, planned and saved a few vacations & requested a DVD for planning a trip. Two days later, pin code in the mail. Now that was awfully fast, so maybe it had nothing to do with it, but I did get one. I hope I haven't use all my magic though - we want to go next November and the pin codes out now are only good through June 5th.

We are planning a November or early December trip in 2011. Is it better to go before Thanksgiving or after? I don't want to miss the decorations but I want to avoid Pop Warner and the taping of the parade.

We're going the week before Thanksgiving beacuse of crowds and Pop Warner (first week of December). Whatever you do, avoid the week of Thanksgiving - including both weekends. Crowd levels start at 5 the first weekend and go up to 10s by the end of the week. Mickey's Christmas Party starts in early November, so either time with be plenty "Christmassy".

The week before Thanksgiving sounds good to me! I will keep that in mind. I don't care about the Mickey Christmas party. My daughter is a teen. I just want to see the decorations!

I should probably be encouraging people to go when I'm NOT going...

Well there is only 3 of us so we won't take up too much space!

 

[patclairesmom]

Count me in also. We are thinking Nov 17-26th. I think we will start our stay with MVMCP and end it with Candlelight Processional. Tyring to judge from this years dates so hopefully it will work out.

Don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but the fiscal meeting that Disney just had doesn't look good. It was officially mentioned that Disney will be doing some belt-tightening when it comes to discount promotions. Since the promos are already out through September 2011, I hope this doesn't mean there won't be any to be had for Oct-Nov-Dec of 2011.

With that said....
1. How many of you already have your trips booked for fall of 2011?
2. How many will have to cancel if there isn't a promotion offered?
3. How many will consider movin their trip to a time when a promo is offered (earlier in the year?)

I have a sinking feeling in my stomach for November. Disney waited until July of this year to offer anything for November. That is cutting it pretty close for us, and by that time I probably won't be able to get the free dining for September anymore if I have to re-book. What to do.....what to do.
