Someone familiar with PIN codes....help.

Okay, so I guess I'm not getting the free dining today at POP...it's filled I went back and priced some things out using my first ever PIN code and it will actually let you add dining and tickets making it a package, even though the code says it's a room only pinned code. It comes out to be around $400.00 more than free dining, and that's for us paying for our own dining and getting the same length of stay, same room category and same tickets.

This is a good deal right....or do you kill the discounted PIN when you add all that to it? I just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something crazy by adding in tickets and dining to a room only PIN. It actually puts us a little further in to the fall too, which we're all for.

So for those of you that have used a room PIN before, did you add tickets or anything? Can you book 2 rooms for it, since our family won't fit in one? And can you link the rooms together like any other Disney reservation? I'm guessing that if you do add tickets and dining to it that it makes it a package so the deposit becomes the 200.00 versus the 1 night room/tax?

Thanks!!!

With a room only PIN, yes, you can add tickets and dining to the reservation. The discount will only come off of the room price though. Usually what I do to see what its going to cost me(and to also double check disney's figures for the PIN discount) is I will first put in my dates for a room only res. then reduce that by the discounted PIN %. Next I will go to the "buy tickets section" and add on how much they are quoting for ex. a 5 day park hopper for my family, and finally, I will add the dining on(for reg. dining $52 a night per adult and $15 a night for kids 3-9-Q.S.Dining $35 a night per adult and $12 per night for kids 3-9) So add the end will these 3 amounts on PAPER not on the disney reservations I will be able to see approx. what it will cost.

Yes, will a room PIN you are allowed up to 3 rooms!

Whoo hooo, thanks I'm going to go add it up on the site like you said, that will let me see what each item is costing. I could add dining and tickets on when I priced out the reservation online using my PIN link.....but still I'd like to see how it all adds up.

I think the PIN code is only 10% off Value....it says *65.00 under the Value heading in the email, but of course that depends on what dates you choose....for our dates it's more like 80.00 a night but still it's roughly 10% off the rack rate for that same time.

Okay....when I entered my dates it came up as 951.00 for the room only, when I use my PIN code it comes up at 665.00......that's more than 10%. Aren't the Game On PIN codes tiered at 10%, 20% and 25%? Never mind...mine is a 30% PIN.....wow, first PIN ever and they gave me a doozie of one! Makes it almost as good as free dining for our family.

Pop has started to come up for the free dining code. You should try again with free dining, since that is what you want.

Yea, it's not open for 9/29 check in dates I'll keep trying but if it doesn't work out it'll be okay.....an extra 400.00 for the same thing in October isn't too bad.
