On Facebook Mousesavers just posted room only discounts for fall dates for DisneyLAND. So frustrated for my friend desperately awaiting a code.

We have a reservation booked with the AP rate (will upgrade to an AP to get it, so it's not a HUGE savings) and it's a savannah view. I also had a club level reservation booked, and was hoping a RO discount would come out that I could apply to that, but I am thinking I should just cancel this reservation. Let's say the RO DOES come out - would there be a benefit to me having the club level reservation, or would my chances of getting that room at the discount be the same regardless of whether I already have the reservation or not?
Sorry if this info has already been requested/answered but I can't read this entire thread.....tons of homework here! LOL! Have there been any August 2012 RO discounts released? Would love to go the first 2 weeks in August, only time we can all make it. Any and all help os greatly appreciated! TIA!
They haven't even announced any October-December 2011 RO rates yet!
Was AP discount available on CL room? If not I wouldn't expect a RO discount to be available. AKL CL rooms can be difficult to book with a discount. I've stayed in CL room there twice and did have get discounts but booked months out. With Disney waiting so long to release RO rates I would say the chances get slimmer for RO on CL room.
Yup, I agree that we probably won't get a discount at this stage! But what I'm wondering is if it helps your chances at all to already have a reservation that you apply the discount to, or if that doesn't matter? In the slighttt chance it did become available - because we ALL cancel due to this lack of discounts!![]()

In fact, having a CL reservation may actually hurt your chances of applying a discount. If the reservation rate for a particular room category is too high, any discount won't apply. Remember the discount is given to fill rooms. If a room is already filled, why would they discount it?It does not help your chances a single bit. If the type of room is not offered in the discount, it can not be applied. I had to downgrade my room choice by one level to get a recent discount applied and I now wish I hadn't done it. Oh well, I will love being at Disney no matter where I am staying!

I finally gave up on waiting for a room only discount or code and booked the Swan. I actually got a really good deal and am excited to be within walking distance of Epcot and Hollywood Studios.
Time is running out for this promotion to be offered. I think 9-22 is the latest it has been offered. Seems like rumors for most discounts start floating around about a week before the offer comes out. If we don't hear rumors in the next couple of days, it is looking bleak for the fall season.
Whoops my memory failed me by a couple of days. In any event, if there isn't some rumor by Monday, I don't think it is coming any time soon, if at all. I've not read anything about upcoming discounts on the 4 disney boards I follow.
I agree. The 25th is a Sunday, anyway, so that doesn't seem particularly likely. Possible but not likely.
We decided to wait until Monday. Though I know what will happen, we'll get to Monday and say, well, we might as well wait until Tuesday ...![]()
