Nov9-16 at French quarter was already sold out of dining plan pkgs an hr ago when I called. Upgraded to AKL!!!!
French Quarter was already sold out Monday for Oct. 19-27 when I called to book FD with my Disney Visa. Only the royal princess rooms were available at Riverside. So we went with Coronado Springs which I love anyway!
Already booked Wilderness Lodge Oct. 13-21. FREE dining period begins Oct. 19, ARE WE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE DINING or out of luck??!!
Thanks!!
I have reservations for the All Star Music Resort, Standard Room, Oct 31-Nov 12. Does anyone know if this resort and room combination are included in the free dining offer? Thank you.
French Quarter is also sold out 11/28-12/4. Trying to figure out what my back up plan is right now
On a side note.....while being on hold for so long I got to hear a lot of "stuff" while waiting. One of the things I heard was the "in 2009 what will YOU be celebrating?" Really? After 3 - 4 years you can't change that already?
I was inspired by this thread to drop DV an e-mail expressing my frustration that I have been a cardholder for many many years, but have as of yet, never received any e-mails for offers such as the ones being discussed on this thread.
Their response this morning was...

Dear XXxxxXXX,
Thank you for contacting Chase about your Disney account.
Based on our review I am unable to locate an offer for a
Free Dining offer at Walt Disney World.
If you have any further questions, please reply using the
Secure Message Center.
Thank you,
So before I respond with a link to the offer that is right on their website right now, can you clarify for me...
1. Did any of you receive an actual e-mail concerning this latest offering or only e-mails back in May when the other offer was there?
2. Did your e-mail come from Disney or from Disney Visa?
Thanks for all your help
Mine came from Disney Rewards on the 9th.
Anyone have any luck getting FD to pop up on-line? I'll call if I have to....just not sure it's worth the time.
We are 4 Disney adults (3 "real" adults and my 10 year old) and 2 kids. We're actually staying at AKV from Dec 6th - Dec 15th. We hadn't planned on using the dining plan at all, and just going OOP (because, with my 10 year old, the cost of the DP just isn't worth it).
Wondering if it's worthwhile to book a room (or 2) from the 10th - 15th...just to get FD. We'd "upgrade" to 9 day tickets, through Disney, and pick them up early.
For us, tickets (through Undercover Tourist) + DDP cost for 5 nights would be about $3120. Anything under that would mean we were saving money by booking a room we won't use, and just taking the dining.
