Visa Card Holders free dining was just announced...but only for dates through Sept. 29th.

I was really hoping the Dates would go through the first of October. Our check in date is Sept 30th, but I guess I can always call and add one more night to get FD with a check in date for Sept 29th. Do you think Sept 30-Oct 6 will be offered in the next FD dates??

Lately there has been no definite dates for when Free Dining will be offered. For a one night difference though I would call and move it up one day! And if nothing else you are getting another day in Disney!

I agree. One more night isn't a bad thing. Thanks for your advice!

Belle - I have never gotten a Pin!!! I feel so unloved! But, I am waiting for an ap discount (or a pin). I have ordered the dvd, I have put reservations on hold, then I had to book it because I had to cancel with our horrible travel agent...Now I am just waiting...

Do we get PIN codes in Canada too by any chance?

I honestly have no idea. Hopefully someone else from Canada can tell you.

Just popped over to the Canadian planning area of the Disboards and it looks like there are people getting PINS.

About 99.9% sure we'll be heading to Orlando for my 40th birthday girl's trip on October 20-27th. Will be heading to US/IOA and then to WDW on the 22nd. Here's to hoping they add October free dining to the promotions!

We absolutely do get pin codes in Canada. I have received several pins via email and one via regular mail in the last few years. Good luck

 

[lisalonglash]

Good luck to all waiting for pin codes!!

We get them! My parents have received two or three in Feb...all for travel by June. We need October!

 

[Candycane83]

Thanks everyone! Yes, I need one for October as well. I don't know what my chances are since I have already booked!

When/If free dining gets released in October does anyone know what the blackout dates were for 2011? I remember October FDing last year didn't include the whole month....that's why we stuck with our September FDing reservations. But I can't find the dates it covered.

I have know idea, but if anyone does know what dates were blacked out 2011 I'd love to know... still watching and waiting for a great discount!

The dates I had were all strange from Mouseplanet.....so I've deleted them and I'm going with the 2 next posters and the dates they found

I also found that 10/5 through 10/8 is Columbus Day weekend, so crowds are a bit heavier. The Gartner Symposium is 10/21 through 10/25 this year. Looks like most everything else (F&W Marathon, PGA Tournament Week, Veterans Day Week and Jersey Week) all start in November.....

Just did a quick search for 2011 Free Dining and found these dates:

Hmmm...interesting that the info we found doesn't match up. I'll have to go back and check some more.

 

[kelleigh1]

Here is where I found the info I posted:

and I'm guessing TheRatPack found their info here:

I got mine from MousePlanet.....they had a few dates marked out and then retyped....etc so maybe dates changed or they had the wrong ones. I do remember it was similar to those dates though....so looking at both those list I can judge when to make our reservations

I usually go to MouseSavers but they only list the start and end dates and I couldn't find the breakdown of what dates were included...etc. Thanks for looking for that list for me Again, looking at both of those and I can figure out what dates to book
