The Official Free Dining Watch 2007 Thread

[wic0721]

I just booked my 9/15 - 9/22 vacation at POP, there were no preferred view rooms left though!

Hopefully some preferred rooms will open up!

Either way, we're going to Disney!!!

Okay the scoop I got... My dates are 9/21-10/1 Nothing in POP or Movies but Sports and Music still avali. both room types. I took Music stan. I had her check on the Mods. CB, and PO Sold out, Still some @ CS. Hope this helps. I didn't check any deluxe because I may be tempted to book one! Hope this helps and good luck to all still holding. She also told me to at least book now and check back in 2 weeks a LOT of people don't pay the deposit and things open up.

I'm off to get out of my birthday suit and into some clothes

CSR, 4 nights, free food, wait time 72 minutes. CM said "Still 182 more in the Q"....how many of you are still on hold???

 

[ShhhQ]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

This wait is killing me!

I had reservations at ASMo (standard) for Aug 28-Sept 1....... but it doesn't sound like I am going to be able to keep that ressie.... waiting on my agent from Dream's Unlimited to email me! Come on!!!!! I want free Dining, just need it to be a value to make it worth it (will even take preferred if necessary, at any value)

For those booking and mentioning sold out resorts don't forget that even if one day is sold out the CM will tell you it's not available. If you ask them to try shifting the dates or eliminating one on the front o back end you might get the resort you want.

POR IS available 9/22-9/29, so the nights of 9/21, 9/29, or 9/30 must be the problem with that one.

 

[marymal99]

I got it. Even with my existing ressie. Good luck all!

 

[kelscross]

My bet is you won't have a problem. People are getting closed out near that time frame due to labor day. Everyone who posted for times you listed got what they wanted because they are leaving before labor day. We got POP for the 27th-1st. Good luck!

Anyone else use dream's unlimited?

[disneymoon_0307]

I've been on hold for 22 mins so far. and judging by the wait time for others...i still have a long way to go. I hope I can make it to work by 9:30. I have an hour and 15mins before I have to leave. I was suppose to get up earlier but my alarm never went off. My cat unplugged it. Yeah she's nuts.

Email her i emailed mine yesterday to let her know the different options i was willing to do!

Or check your online res check it might have changed and just not got round to emailing you yet!

Hope you get what you want

 

[smilechaser]

anyone else not able to check ressie online at the DW site, I keep getting a message that says "system down". What will it say to reflect free dining?

 

[hipporina]

I can't believe I am STILL on HOLD. It has been over 2 HOURS! I am about ready to give up! Talk about killing the Disney magic.

I was planning on doing that (originally we were wanting to go the 1st through the 6th of September) but then my son really wanted an extra day....he said he wants a full week LOL, such a disney addict at 12. Anyhow....I asked for the 1st through the 7th and they had it! OMGoodness....I'm so excited! All our ADRs are booked and we even got the extra room for our hopefully completed adoption by that time

The CM thought it was funny that I was booking for a child we don't have yet, but understood that it would be harder to get free dining later and so she booked the extra connecting room for us (only a few laughs when I mentioned it was for my imaginary child) She asked if I was sure I had the two other children listed on the ressies.....LOL
