We are hoping to go for my 40th BD on October 10th --- that is Columbus Day weekend. We went the week after Labor Day in 2005 and Ophelia kept the weather cooler and the crowds were scarce. We had a CM tell us that October the crowds were small - so we (I) decided what better way to stop getting older - than spend my 40th with Mickey!

Now we just need our tax return to come out ok AND I need to keep my job (my office is closing - but I am up for a promotion!) Say alittle prayer for us!

Scoutsmom99 - those are exactly our dates!!! Can't wait to get back to the World. We are doing a split stay between WL (package w/DP) and AKL.

That is so neat! I hope to do a split stay for my trip as well. Hopefully, AKL and something else. I just love fall at WDW

Me and my DH are also going from 9/3-9/9. We are going to save about $300 too with AAA, but if we could save more that would be great!!

We were planning on going in May, but decided to wait until the fall and instead will do Universal next month for DS's birthday, cause of the great ticket deal they have going.

Looking at 9/30 - 10/8 at POP, but will take AKL if something great comes along.

Will start to get exited after I see what kind of code the Spring and Summer folks get. Or I hope they get one anyhow.

With regard to the codes, is it only good for "room only" reservations or can you use them for packages as well?? Also, can you use these codes if you are booking through AAA?

Just want to make sure everyone here knows about the $129 deal running at the Swan / Dolphin from 7/1 - 9/30. There is a thread about it.

Count me in.. We have the disney all star movies reserved for October 16-22 and I got with my AAA discount 94.92 a night, comes to a total of 570.00 for 6 nights..

Hoping to go in late Sept or early Oct. Does anyone know when MNSSHP starts?

We were VERY SPOILED by the free dining plan last year. We were there Sept 30-Oct 10. We aren't planning a trip until late 2007, but if free dining were to happen again, who knows (I know, I know, it is a VERY long shot!). Does anyone recall when the code for free dining was released (as opposed to valid for) for last fall. I seem to recall that it was early July, but I can't remember!!

 

[SheenaXena21]

It was at the beginning of June. I got an e-mail throught Disney a week before the "official" announcement if the free dining was released. It'd be great if they did have it again this year!

 

[jeast]

keep an eye on mousesavers.com

They announced an upcoming special (they wouldn't say what) before it came out.

Also, I could be wrong, but I remember it coming out sometime earlier in the year (may?), then being reoffered in July. Anyone remember more clearly?

Subscribing. End of September through the First week in October. I will be an annual pass holder in about a month and we plan to stay at CSR.

What is the FREE dining plan?

 

[G&J's Mom]

Just bumping us up!!!

What is the FREE dining plan?

Last year when you purchased a Disney package you got the dining portion for free. Dining includes 1 table service, 1 counter service and 1 snack per person/per night. So if you had 2 people staying for 5 nights you had 10 table services meals, 10 counter service meals and 10 snacks. Pretty cool. I don't remember the exact dates the deal was offered but I'm pretty sure it ended October 4.

We have resort reservations made for this October using our AAA discount (10%) but I'll keep a lookout for other discounts.

Hi everyone! I am going up in April for a 4 night MYW + Dining experience and am going to upgrade my park tickets to a Seasonal or Annual pass... I want to *TRY* and get and AP rate for the CR or the POLY with a view of MK around Sept/Oct/Nov (whichever can deliver the cheapest rate) ...do you think I should start reserving the room now? or should I wait? I mean if anything I could always change it for a Moderate resort (or AKL ) What do you guys recomend?

Up until yesterday I had no clue when we'd ever see the "world" again, but I talked to my dh about going in September and he actually seemed receptive. We went for the first time in December with our two kids and my fil. It was great. We still have five days and five plus options left on our tickets and I would love to take the kids to the waterparks. It was too chilly for us in December. I think it reached seventy once while we were there. I haven't officially decided anything yet, but....I'm keeping my eyes open. We've got a great rate at the Doubletree and right now it would cost us the same to stay at Pop and get the ME. I'm rather undecided about the dining. I know we'd have to purchase at least one day tickets and I'm not so sure we'd eat that much with the weather being so hot that time of the year. On the other hand, it would give us the opportunity to eat at a lot of places we wouldn't choose ordinarily. I'm trying to keep the expenses around $2000. I'm looking at about $750 for lodging (Sep. 22-30) and $500 for airfare if I can snag another awesome deal like I did for Dec. The rest is for dining, souveniers, etc... We'll see. Our kids are six and almost two so two and half at the point and almost seven. Not big eaters We went all out and truly indulged in December and this time I'd like to see more of the parks and not have to worry about making dinner reservation times. Anyway, sorry to ramble. I'm just so excited about the possibility.
