Me too. Except we are staying at a value resort (AoA suite), so I am just hoping the discount pays for trip insurance and Memory Maker (which we haven't added yet)!

WooHoo!!! Cars Suite (8 nights) with 9 day tickets went from $4563.88 to $4076.86.

Still waiting for the public discount. So, is the summer discount 20% for mods?

I think so. We must have gotten 15% on Value.

confused, I don't see the offer on the VISA site. Is this through travel agents only for now? I was going directly to Disney.

I didn't see it anywhere official either. Just call Disney if you have the VISA and ask for the summer Visa discount. The phone person will know.

It hasn't been released on their site yet. You have to call and ask for it.

Well it was a pain, but we got it. We had the AP discount for our first 3 nights, looking for the last 4 nights on discount. They did not have any courtyard views, only bunkbed woodsview and no woodsview available on AP. SO, we ended up leaving the first 3 nights on the AP courtyard and will definitely have to change rooms for the last 4 nights on a woodsview. It saved us almost $960, so while it's a pain to change rooms, it's worth it to us.

I'm still holding out hope for a little pixie dust once we're there, but we accept that we'll probably have to change rooms. It would appear the availability is quite limited on this offer- No courtyard, no standard view at Wilderness Lodge on the Disney Visa discount.

I imagine availability will be even less when it goes public. We're still hoping that the AP will overlap or that availability will change.

Early Visa release has: Up to 20% off most moderate resort rooms (10% off Coronado Springs suites), with up to 25% off for stays 8/10/15 – 8/27/15.

2nd cm did the trick. First one had no idea what I was talking about. Saved $1,250 on a 2 bedroom at OKW. Once again THANK YOU DIS BOARDS!

I saw the Disney dining fb post this morning as I was sitting in line to drop the kids off at school, and I called right away. By the time I got to work, which is maybe 15 minutes, I'd talked to a wonderful CM named Gilda who applied it to my current package at CBR and saved me almost $400! It just about paid for the extra day we'd added on to our trip (room +DDP) so I was pretty excited!

I'm a bit confused why you would want to get two sets of tickets.

Even if you were able to get both discounts (free extra day worth $10 and free PH worth $64) you would wind up paying way more than if you just paid full price for a longer ticket.

Ex: 5 day ticket (includes free day) $324 + 4 day ticket (includes free PH upgrade) $324= $648
Vs a full priced 9 day PH ticket @$446

So those "freebies" would actually cost you over $200 per person.

It's much cheaper to just use one ticket for the whole length of your trip even if you wind up doing a split stay.

I didn't math right. Plus parkhopper for all days is a better deal than 1 free day like I currently have.

No pin associated with my account when I called - CM didn't seem to know anything. Her reply was, "If there are codes coming out, and we don't typically know in advance, they should do so within the next month."

We were able to save about $980 on our stay at the BC for 7 nights! That's a nice bit of $$!!

I wasn't able to get the discount either (so glad I have the visa) I guess I will try Monday when it opens to general public. I am a little annoyed

 

[tzolkin]

No rooms for 5 at CBR or POR.

Only pirate and royal rooms showing availability.

It was cheaper to stay in the Poly than POR with the discount?! Or not as big a difference with the discount?
