October 2009 Code Watch?

[kjbrown]

I saw September 2009 and I saw November 2009, but first three pages didn't show an October 2009 watch.

Anyone with me?

I got the go ahead from DH to plan for "Fall" 2009. He even told some friends that when we stayed at the Poly last year it was worth every penny! Of course, we'd still love a code!!!! We had one last year and are hoping for one for this year.

Join me!

I am thinking we'll go the last week of October. My DD's birthday is on Halloween, so that would be a lot of fun!

 

[Happy Elf]

I'm with you! We are hoping to take a "Fall Break" trip in October. I'm hoping for a code!

 

[kjbrown]

Woo Hoo!

Disney October 2009 Here We Come! My husband and I have participated in the Tower of Terror 13K for the past two years. Next year we were thinking of surprising the boys and bringing them along. The boys have started running with us, so I think it could be a great family thing to do. The Tower of Terror run has always been the third weekend in October, so I am planning around that time. A discount offer would be great! We stayed at the Poly this summer on a Bounceback offer from last years run. We were spoiled at the Poly! I would love to be back there in October.

Ooh, now you are making me want to change my dates! I would love to do a run at Disney World. I am dying to do the Princess Half, but I just can't make it work.

What a great age. We took my DD for her first trip when she was 2 1/2, we had a GREAT trip!!

I booked for early October 09.
Now, just waiting for a code.......

Everybody is actually booking, here I am sitting around...I need to get moving!

i always book early, even 11 months in advance.

that way i already have the room and when rates come out, i just modify my rates. all i want to do is guarantee my room and dates in advance.

i lost out on a resort room once cause i waited until the codes came out one year.

Well, I definitely wouldn't wait until codes came out! I am way too paranoid for that.

I am waffling now between the last week of October, so we could go and celebrate my DD's birthday. Or late September. Late September would be cheaper (probably) and things like MNSSHP would be less crowded. But it wouldn't be her birthday! I think she would LOVE the attention she'd get for her birthday. But I'd love to save money and have less crowds!

Oh decisions decisions. Who am I kidding? I know I'll go the last week of October!

 

[erinericmom]

This will be our first family trip to Disney. We plan to go around my daughters birthday so we can have a great celebration, she will be 10 a double digit girl.

We just had to change our trip from 3/09 to 10/09. I would LOVE a code too please!

 

[Nitewarrior]

first what is a code. Then I want one also. We are planning on Oct 6,

 

[tkitty]

We are wanting to go 10/03/09, and should be getting serious, and booking now I guess.
If I book now, and Visa offers free dining again in the fall, can I add that to the package? I know I can add a code, if one comes out.
Does anyone know, can I use my Visa reward dollars to put a down payment on a WDW package?

 

[macraven]

if you book a package now, you can modify it later and use a different discount code. once you have booked a package for specific dates, you will have a room guaranteed. chances are free dining w/packages will surface again for 2009. you will have no problem at all to switch codes.
disney visa usually have codes for packages which include the free dining program. disney visa holders have the first week, or so many days to book with that code. after the visa holders date passes, the codes are released to the general public.

only so many packages are available per resort.
once the alloted number of rooms are booked for a specific code, you can't book with it unless you can get a cancellation.
that is the main reason i book a package early so i know i have the room for my trip. then i modify and use the code that saves me the most money.

you would pay the $200 deposit at the time of booking and not have to pay the rest until 45 days out from your stay.

it is easier to book a package now, pay the deposit and then modify the rate when codes come out.
if you book a room only now, you could not switch to a package later.
that would have to be a different booking and a cancellation of your room ressie.

the free dining would only come with a package.
room only ressies have no free dining involved with it.

codes should come out in the spring. if the disney visa codes are not all used up, disney usually releases other new codes for the public to book with.
i'm betting free dining will be one of the codes with the packages.

Thanks macraven for answering. I've been away for a little bit and just getting caught up now.

Looks like there are lots of Poly people! Maybe when we get closer, I will update the first post with everyone's screen names and dates and hotel. It's fun to see who will be there when you are!

Okay, it's official now. I chatted with DH and we are going to stay at the Poly, the last week of October for DD's 6th birthday!!

Now the horribly long wait for a code...
