Upgrading resort after code is expired- can this be done?

[Padme]

Just wondering if anyone has ever done this.

Booked 2 rooms at ASMO back in October with the BDP? code. If I wanted to change resorts- maybe go to deluxe, would CRO be able to apply the code price for the new resort or would I have to pay rack rate?

I thought I read of people doing this on here, but can't find the posts now.
Any thoughts?

I did it. Got POP with code BDP & later changed to AKL. CM never said anything about it being expired. Just transferred it over.

Thanks! I notice we will be there the same time!!

We picked ASMO because of the theme- the kids will love it. But, I still dream of staying at one of the monorail resorts. Been toying with the idea of calling to see what the price difference would be, but I don't want to disapoint the kids. Hmmm....

We booked a split stay between CR and POR on the BDP. We decided to just stay at the CR the whole time and were able to get the code rate for the additional nights. The CM did say that once we switched to CR for the whole trip we wouldn't be able to move back down to a mod with the code rate. So yes you can upgrade but you can't go to a cheaper room. Disney is perfectly happy to take more of your money

I had a different experience when I tried to change my POP reservation a few weeks ago.

I used the BDP code to book my original POP ressie at the end of October and recently we decided to change to a moderate. When they looked to see what was available it was significantly higer than the BDP moderate rates. They didn't automatically give me BDP rate. I then asked if I could transfer using that code and was told it had expired Hopefully you will have better luck than me
