Waiting to hear from our TA is driving me nuts! We used Dreams Unlimited this time, they have been the best we've ever worked with,

so I'm sure she's on top of it...I just want to actually see the confirmation!

I just re-booked my reservation with FD @ POP for 8/25-9/8! 14 nights of free dining, I can't wait!! Thanks so much for this thread everyone

!

The basic dining code is working now. I called first at 9:00 and was told there was a glitch but to call back later. I called again at 9:20 and it was working!!!

Just got Labor Day weekend, Sept. 3-6, 4 nights, POP and also Oct. 2-12, 10 nights, ASMovies. Whoo-hoo!

And to answer for those who've asked, yes, I confirmed, as long as you check in by Oct. 3rd (the last day of the promo) you get free dining for the length of your stay.

Good luck to all!

After my ressie is modified or changed and I get my confirmation number, I can still access that on WDW website, right? I currently have a POP room booked and I owe about $1k for my September trip. Will it change to reflect the free dining (so that it would only show like $300 due or whatever)?

Am I making sense?

ldhr2005 · 03-26-2009, 08:38 AM

anyone know what the difference in price is??

MapleGirl · 03-26-2009, 08:40 AM

From MouseSavers:

If you want, you can upgrade to the Deluxe Dining Plan for just $32 per adult per night and $10 per child age 3-9 per night. (This represents the usual price difference between the regular Dining Plan and the Deluxe Dining Plan.) The Deluxe Dining Plan includes three meals a day at your choice of table service or counter service locations. You get an appetizer with your table service meals on the Deluxe Dining Plan. The Deluxe Dining Plan also includes two snacks per day and one refillable mug per person. You can eat like royalty!

You can also add the "Wine & Dine" Plan to this package, at full price.

I think I understand. After you modify a reservation it should show up on the website . However, it will take awhile to show that FD has been added. I just checked. I got my e-mail confirmation but it is still not updated on the website when I check my reservation there.

As long as I have my way, lol, we'll be there 9/23-9/27

Good morning!

Free dining this year how exciting! I'm going in early september but staying on DVC points even though I have a Disney rewards card. Am I still able to take advantage of the early signup for DV members or do I have to wait until Monday?

Thanks!

brockash · 03-26-2009, 08:43 AM

Okay, so I'm getting nervous waiting for my TA to get in and care enough to call, so I think I'm going to make a new reservation, just in case. -I know I'm sure I'm worrying for nothing, but I've waited as long as I can, so here's my question...can anyone tell me what all I need to do, if I need to cancel it? Do I just call Disney and tell them I need to cancel that reservation? I'm pretty sure ppl. said you get the deposit back as well, but can anyone confirm that? Does anyone see any forseen problems with doing this? TIA!!!! I'm sooooo excited!!!!!!

I probably should have booked it before I told my friend about it...

Make that five, I need two

Yup. Here's the section from Mouse Savers:

glad so many of you are getting in on the free dining,yum yum,enjoy

MindyMouse76 · 03-26-2009, 08:51 AM

I feel a little nervous - what do you suggest. I called at 7:15 eastern time today and was only on hold for about 2 minutes. The guy was very nice and seemed good. He got to what seemed like the last screen and it kept hanging on him. He put me on hold for a while and then came back. He said he was still waiting for someone to pick up (where ever he was calling for help). While he was on hold he went back in and said it looked like it took. Should I be nervous? I know others had glitches.... If he saw it on the screen when he went back in - am I good to go? I don't want any suprises later on for something that was totally not my fault!!!

Thanks and any advice would be great!
