The current bounce back excludes Oct. 6-19; it's also a room-only bounce back, not free dining, but you can add paid dining to the bounce back.

Is any military member going to POFQ from 14-21 FEB 2013?
The discounted price room is amazing and I would like to be able to get it. I found out a military member can book a second room at the discount. My son who is active duty can't go until the following week and I can only go the 14-21 FEB.
Thanks!

My dad just booked 3 rooms with the military discount for Sept 21st - 28th for 35% off the rack rate. A very nice discount if you ask me. Though I wouldn't turn down a 30% off discount either.

The military rate for POFQ 24th-28th FEB is $1026 for hotel and dining plan. Tickets for 4 day hopper are $156 each. That is for two people.

But there are less black out dates for the military discount.

We have Sept 21st - 28th at $1056.80, room only x3 rooms booked with the discount. Will probably buy my own ticket through Undercover Tourist and will be paying OOP for all my meals.

I'm not sure if this has already been asked but I was wondering if we stay at riverside can we use our refillable mugs at port Orleans or vice versa?

When can we expect the 2014 rates to be released, my dining reservation date is July 9th and I want to have my reservations made. We plan on going Jan 4th, 2014

Usually August is when rates are set for the following year. It's been earlier, but August is the most common time for rate to be released.

Yes! We took the boat from MK to Riverside to eat dinner at their food court then the boat back to POFQ and they are the same mugs. All the resorts have the same mugs. We did the same thing at Pop Century to use up our DDP from POFQ before we headed to the airport.

Yes all the mugs are the same at the resorts, but you are supposed to only use the mugs at the resort where you are staying. There is a whole thread about this issue. The refillable mug issue is a hot topic like pool hopping. Major no no.

POR and POFQ are sister resorts so no official problem with using your mugs at both food courts during your trip.

However, as has been said, you can't officially do so at other resorts, or use them again on future trips.
