[xbonnie38]

OKay Hi,,

My DH and myself want to go down in March 2010 first week and my question is this ...we would like to stay in a deluxe resort for once ,,, have stayed in value ,,,campground and one moderate,,,but would maybe like to splurge,,,does anyone know ...1. which is the least exspensive for a off peak season time we would like fort wilderness lodge but am willing to float about anywhere on property. and 2. I see discount codes all over the place on here how do i get one ( not a disney cc holder) and when do i start looking for them for march 2010 dates? and also if I book room now but then get a code later can i call them back and apply the code...okay and one more question sorry,,,,,,is free dining only in September? I would for go an inexspensive room for free dining!...Thanks in advance for any and all help!

AKL and WL are the cheapest of the Deluxes. You can book your room only now for March 2010 but its too early to book a package. Discounts are either general public like the current 4/3 deal or special marketing PIN CODES that seem to be extemely ramdom and can only be used by the person they are addressed to.
Free dining historically has only been Aug/Sept however in Dec 2008 it was opened up for Disney Visa holders - not sure if it ever went public....

Most of the time yes you can apply a code to an existing reservation


Happy Planning

I think it's too early to find a deal for next March. We're going this April and I booked a room only reservation last year. When the deals and specials came out, I switched to one of those. I would guess that there will be good deals next year since I dont think the economy will be recovering any time soon.

As for reasonably-priced deluxe resorts, you're in luck. The WL and AKL are the least expensive (by quite a bit of $$$ actually) and are two of the best-themed and most beautiful and unique resorts in all of WDW. So hopefully you will get to stay where you want to!

Good luck with your planning!

AkL and WL are the two least expensive Deluxe resorts with AKL being slightly less expensive than WL.
