Will disney give me a refund?

[Blessedwithboys]

So I booked for September
I was planning on paying the trip down to a hundred dollars (just in case we decide to add trip insurance we will wait to decide) at the end of March. But then I got to thinking if FD comes out and it saves us 500+ dollars and we only have 100 left to pay on our ressie will Disney refund me 400.00?
I just want to make things as uncomplicated as possible. I think the highest discount realistically would be in the 600.00 range so should I just keep about that much unpaid on my ressie and wait until the discount comes out to pay it off??

Yes. They will refund you the difference if you apply a discount/promotion to your package. Have done this many times!

Yes they will refund the difference but keep in mind the room type & resort has to be ava for the discount. In the past they used to just change your ress# to the FD or discount but now the resort & room type has to be ava. I know as I tried this in Dec 2012 & the room type wasn't on discount off so I couldn't change & yes I talked to a supervisor & even called back the next day same thing no. But this is my views only Good luck !

Eekk! Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks to both of you for the info makes me feel better about paying it down and not worrying about it!! The discount will really seem like an added bonus if I get some money back

Yes, as others have said they will refund the difference. However there are a couple of things to keep in mind:

-The resort and room type have to be included in the promotion and be available for you to take advantage of it. You might have to consider changing room classification or resort to take advantage of a promo.

-If it's within 45 days of your arrival, you can be charged a $50 change fee if your new total package costs less than your original package.

I just cancelled my entire package reservation....after paying it off in full. A friend was able to get me an "upgrade" to OKW and I had been booked in POR. It took about a week (5 business days), and I had my entire refund from Disney. The first one came through in two days....my $200 deposit took a week.

Hope this helps!
