Alright - I'm up till 1 a.m. then I need to get some sleep (work in the morning!) and will try again at 4...and 5...and 6...

 

[Kellbee]

I see 12. Neither of those things.

Any free dining?

I just love the sport of Disney World vacation planning. Makes me feel alive.

A sport I'm finally good at!

Ok. I'll ask my question a different way. Since POR is not included after October 1, if I start my trip that day, is it available for my entire stay, up to 14 days of course.

yes---if you check in on 10/1 you get free dining for the entire trip

 

[SunnieRN]

In the past it was. Don't think it was available last year though.

as long as check in day falls within promotion dates, you're good for your whole trip!

Thank you!!! I wasn't sure if a hotel was blacked out that would count.

I'm jealous that you got some sleep! I wish I would have! Luckily I am off work until Thursday (for unlucky reasons, my wonderful grandmother passed away) and don't have anywhere to be tomorrow/today until 1

Sorry for your loss.

Nothing fancy about my 12 offers.

Thanks for the input! I know my husband and I could do it - but it might be harder with the kids. I just don't know. He wanted a room only reservation this year (actually he didn't want to go at all, the room only was supposed to be a compromise) but then the rumors of free dining for our dates started swirling.

At Disney we usually only eat twice a day, so deluxe would just be so much food probably. And more reservations are usually not good for relaxation - they are just more places to try to get to on time.

Other thoughts?

We thought that because it was Thanksgiving we should stay away, and keep to non park activities. My DGD was 10 or 11 at the time and she did nto like it. My DSIL said never again.

We do love the signature dining and so I do book DxDDP once in a while. But we have two rooms, and both are not DxDDP. I would consider booking the DDP and then paying OOP for any extras.

 

[Kellbee]

I still see 9 offers available.

If this was the Olympics, we would definitely be getting the gold.

 

[Just Love Disney]

I see 12. Neither of those things.

Have you always seen 12 or are you seeing 3 that are new? Are you in the U.S.?

 

[CaraMiaBelle]

I see 12. Neither of those things.

I want to see 12!!!!

Mine only shows 5 offers, is that a Canadian thing?

 

[sahm2two]

I'm starting to fade... headache is kicking in. My goal was 1am and then check again at 4am... I think I can, I think I can....

POR RR for us. 9-29 to 10-8.

 

[KT0191]

This thread is so more lively than last year. People waited until about 12:30 am and then mostly everyone went to bed lol. Only a few stayed up and it was very slow!
