Thanks to @focusondisney and @vinotinto I saw Disney announced the November 2025 BB dates available so I called yesterday afternoon to see about adding November 1st to my already booked BB at Pop Century October 26th to October 31st. The CM was good and tried twice to add it and also tried making a new reservation for the 1 night. She said it wasn't accepting the BB offer code. And also admitted they were having issues with the BB offer and she didn't see any availability for the 1st. Well this was a red flag for me. I thanked her for trying and ended the call disappointed. Well as usual I wasn't satisfied so in the evening I called again. I got a great CM this time maybe the best one I have ever had in all my many many Disney calls. I explained what I wanted and she also told me they were having issues with some of the BB offer codes but she would do her best to add the date. After 2 long times on hold she was able to add November 1st to my reservation and also my DSIL one also. Yes it took an hour and twenty one minutes to do but being successful was all I cared about. I am a VERY patient person so I guessed that helped. I was also very nice about it all and she appreciated that. I am glad I called back and was successful. I know they only alot so many rooms on this offer but Disney just released them so I thought I had a good chance. I had to try and make that 2nd call. Now as for my spring trip that is another story. So far having no luck modifying that one but I will keep trying. Yes calling often is a daunting task but if I can have success it will be worth it. I am flexible with my dates and I do have a date at Pop Century booked thankfully but trying to change the room category. Regardless I will go and have a great time I know. Just wanted to share my recent experience. And thanks to everyone who shares their BB experiences and helpful info. Love this thread.

So has anyone tried to book a BB themselves online yet? I'm past the seven days now myself so I can't try it out but I'm dying to know if this is really happening.

Post 1674, @KellyKateri said she booked it herself.

Thanks. I missed that somehow. I'm really happy about this change.

Excited to hear that new boucebacks are bookable online! I wonder it they will also be able to be edited online as well! I absolutely hate calling Disney to book my resort stays and calling to edit them is a pain in the butt!
I have a trip in 18 days and am very much looking forward to getting the bouceback offer and being able to search online to book!

And hopefully they can also be canceled online as well...

It’s a bounce back offer, yes it’s only available for the 7-days. I checked out yesterday and received the link to book in an email. I already booked another stay using the link

oh man I probably deleted the link by accident. I have every stupid email that there's a new login to my disney account but not the one I need...


edited: it was glitching at first but it finally let me book without a link. I just did it from the specials page.

Are you within 7 days of checking out? If so, you can call. You can also try this offer page and see if it gives you the option to book online: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/special-offers/resort-return-offer/

it finally let me get to the payment screen after clearing my cart, signing in again...

 

[KellyKateri]

First question… does it give you an option to change after you booked, so you don’t have to call?

Next question…. Can you book more than 1 reservation thru your link?

Sorry the late reply on this!

1) the option is there to change, just like when you book online (dates, resort, offer type, room type etc) but when I select change it just reroutes me to my plans. Hopefully this is coming soon!

2) Yes! I was able to book 3, not sure if you could do more but

 

[focusondisney]

Thanks @KellyKateri!

Mine still has the “to change or cancel call xxx”.

 

[Stacybaeasm]

You always have to call for everything about a bounceback… availability, booking or changes. You can’t do anything on line.

Actually, I was able to book my bounceback online. When I got back from my Thanksgiving trip, I had an email with a link to make a reservation online. I successfully booked my next stay at Pop with the 25% off without having to get on the phone. Maybe this is something new they are trying to cut down phone times??

My post you quoted was from early November. The ability to book online apparently started when they updated the offer after that on November 21. It was posted by @KellyKateri on the 22nd. Before then, you did have to call to book or change.

Nice you can book online but i I don’t think the system recognizes the new data in November. When I try to book October 31 past November 1 no offers are available. Guess I’ll have to call in our book multiple reservations with I don’t like doing. His king is the typical wait to call in?

Hi All. Just wanted to share my latest BB experience. I already posted my success with booking my October 2025 standard room at Pop Century and also adding another night. I also booked a spring BB trip at Pop Century and although flexible with 4 different dates only 1 date was available and I had to take a pool view room. Not the end of the world but I really want a standard room. So yesterday I called for the 3rd time to try again. And I am happy to report I was successful. I was actually flexible with 8 different dates this time and 1 of them had the standard room I wanted. I also saved 108 dollars and I know may not be alot I will take it. LOL And the CM I had was great . So 3 was the charm for me so I won't have the daunting task of calling regularly to try and modify. Looking forward to reading more success posts like mine. And of course looking forward to my 2025 Disney trips.
