For the last 2yrs we have gone in late Aug and got Free Dining. We have never been offered the bounceback rate. Not a mention of it. Is this only given in Sept?oct or for certain guests?

Oh i can not wait to find out. Should be interesting. I am going in 2 weeks but we are so going back in the fall if free dining comes out!!

My parents even are thinking about coming! Hope they offer it this year!!

beroh2253 · 01-05-2009, 02:08 PM

Keep an eye out for April around the 6-9th and even earlier for the Visa Rewards card holders. I hope the regular DDP like the Bounce back offered.

tkitty · 01-05-2009, 05:42 PM

Subbing...
I'm waiting too. Any chance that free dining will spill over into first week of Oct? I can only hope...

wdwmaw · 01-05-2009, 05:45 PM

We are booked for free dining bounceback and will be eating for free from Oct.3-Oct.13.

I was surprised at the late booking for this year. Fall break here we come, now I just need someone to babysit in the afternoons to help pay for this.

I saw that the bounceback offered later dates. Maybe I'll get lucky. Our ideal stay, would be Oct 3rd to Oct 9th. We'll see.

My2BabiesLexis&Dill · 01-05-2009, 08:29 PM

I'm in for the wait. I'm not sure what dates I'm looking for. I know it's going to be in September. We have been twice on Free Dining and love it.

ekidwell0001 · 01-05-2009, 08:49 PM

I am in also!!! Went last sepetember for 10 days, and 9 nights, filling our tummies all day for free! Hope that it'll happen again!!

dahuffy · 01-06-2009, 12:21 AM

We'll be "bunking" with friends at Old Key West,in a 2br Suite,Aug 15-22,2009. Since they are the ones paying for it,how would we go about getting our tickets with the Free Dining? What if they don't want the FD option for their family?
