i was headed to aaa today to book a myw pack with dining at poly oct21-29 and now i see the announcement about the free dining!! we could change our dates to sept 30- oct8 but i'm really afraid of the crowds. i'm thinking everyone else is going to do this too to take advantage of fw fest and mnsshp since the both start that week. if the crowds are crazy and the weather is hotter i don't think its worth saving the money....or is it???? please help me decide...what would you do???

Crowd is a relative term. What time of year did you last go? There will be some very crowded days/nights at some parks during that time but we have gone many times that week (my DD's B-day is 10/31) and always had a good time.

We have been down in WDW during the end of September/early October. The week you are picking, may get a little crowded as the week goes on - because the following weekend is the Columbus Day weekend. Good Luck in deciding.

i just returned from aaa. my agent knew nothing about this new offer and neither did the first person she contacted at disney. she called back and after being put on hold several times to talk to a supervisor she offered us a rate that is almost 1000 dollars less than the aaa package rate for our dates in oct. i have no idea how they arrived at the rate they gave me unless they discounted the room and still gave me the free dining. my agent wants to wait until they fax it to her before we book it so we have it in writing. for that much money saved i will deal with the possibility of larger crowds and hotter weather. cross your fingers that they don't change our rate. disney...here we come...3 weeks earlier!!!!!

The rate is lower because you going during value season now insread of during the regualar season.

You cannot get a AAA discount with the free dining plan.
Have fun at Disney!
