Bounceback Information and FAQ Thread - 25-35% off BOUNCEBACKS ARE BACK for 2024/2025!

Do you have to call to use the BB? Also - has anyone ever used their WDW BB to get a deal at DL? Random question ... but that is hopefully our next trip!

Yes, you have to call. And it's only for WDW.

After my upcoming trip, when I call to book a bounceback, can I use it to book more than one trip? If so, is there a limit? I have all of our 2024 trips booked already but with the offer extended to October 2025, I may as well try to apply the 35% to all of our anticipated trips for next year (minus Nov/Dec) and not have to watch for GP or AP discounts as they come out.

If booking a trip that starts in an included date range, can that reservation extend into dates that aren't included? If so would those days also be discounted, or rack rate?

Well I have my fall trip from October 27th to November 4th. My first 5 nights are with the BB offer but the remaining nights are at rack rate and that was how I had to book it which I assumed. And since those rack rate nights are over a Disney race weekend I am not counting on any discount for those although that would really be a pleasant surprise. That's my booking experience. Hope it helped.

Oh and Crescent Lake that is for this year 2024.

Yes, it answers my second question. Thanks! I have an 8 night November trip booked on excluded dates at rack rate because it's an extended family trip taking advantage of the school calendar (no wiggle room on dates). I also have a 10 night trip coming up soon that is rack rate because DH wants to experience a particular room type that never gets discounted. I'm hoping to be able to book all of our 2025 trips with a bounceback discount so we don't end up doing rack rate trips next year.

2024 is a big celebration year for us so we are indulging ourselves and doing quite a lot of splurging. Next year will need to be more sensible.

I think that you can book as many individual trips with the bounce back as you want. At least, that was what I was told by a CM. The limit comes when you want to book multiple rooms during one trip. In that case, the limit of reservations during the same dates is three.

If you are booking a bounceback for 2 rooms - do both parties have to stay at the same resort? Going in September this year and want to book a bounceback for September of next year. Can book a value resort and a villa room? Going with a family member next year that wants to stay in a villa room

At one point, didn't the lead guest in a separate room need to be booked on the current reservation for a bounce back? I think it was that way earlier, but I haven't used it up until this year and all parties for the same for the time that I booked.

Can’t remember how it worked in the past but now, a current guest can book up to 3 rooms on a bb offer. The guest creating the bb offer must be booked to stay during the same dates they are booking bb rooms for others.

Eg last summer I booked a bb offer for me and my cousin’s family. My family will be there for 10 days. I booked 2 rooms for my cousin who will be there some of our 10 days.
