Predictions for Dec 2024 Incentives?

[SugarSweetLee]

So....whatcha got? What kind of incentive changes do you think we'll see for the next round after Dec 11?

Big changes to Poly?

 

[OKW Lover]

Doubt there will be any major change.

With dues going down at Poly, I'm sure the incentives will all but go away, nothing better for sure.

I predict no substantive changes at Poly or any of the other actively selling resorts.

I am curious what of the “sold out” resorts come back with incentives next cycle, if any.

Would love a fire sale on Aulani but I know that isn’t happening.

You really don't think they'll do a better Welcome Home or MB offer?

I am far from the expert, but dues just dropped by nearly 4%, I think that is going to feel somewhat like a fire sale in itself. But there may not be any price per point incentive changes (or any bigger ones), but could add other incentives (WH or MB). I just don't see why they would if its selling pretty good & it just got better.

I think Disney is doing a deep dive into their sales data and is currently working on those projections for the next quarter. It depends on how they view their projections, but I imagine these annual dues stats only help their strategy to keep prices similar to where they are now. I, for one, would be very surprised if they increased incentives.

 

[Spivey378]

I predict that I won’t be incentivized to buy more points.

How do you know the dues dropped by 4% for Poly? I haven’t seen the dues for BLT yet.

BLT is up 5.60%

Most potential buyers won’t have an idea that dues dropped.

 

[CastAStone]

I think they’ll generally improve slightly. Also it’s price increase szn so better incentives does not equal better net price.

 

[sarahlord]

I hope it’s better but I’m not betting on it….

 

[davidhr]

I don’t expect better incentives, but the addition of Magical Beginnings and Welcome Home coming back are a possibility.

What, they aren’t all psychopaths like us that stalk every cent we can save on our next contract??

I suspect The Cabins at Fort Wilderness will get a fire sale. Sales data there appears to be horrible, and I'm sure ~$30 off will rope some suckers in.

I'm starting to wonder if there's any pressure on Disney to sell more Riviera contracts. December 16th is the hotel's 5 year anniversary, and they're still not sold out. It may be a convenient excuse to run a bigger-than-usual promotion. On the other hand, I'm sure Disney is perfectly content renting the rooms at $800/night.

 

[MICKIMINI]

I am not expecting a better price on Poly Tower, in fact my guess is price goes up. CFW likely to have better incentives or those cabins will remain unsold forever. Hoping to see a fire sale on a 2042 resort. YMMV!

 

[Sandisw]

I think it will stay similar to what it is!

 

[drg6654]

Is there any chance that the Cabins get any better?

You’d think they would but so far, DVD doesn’t seem concerned about the sales to raise them.
