2016 Free Dining Watch

So since I have three rooms booked and don't have a spare $600 sitting around to make the reservations (been paying my balance off for the trip) I'm basically SOL??? This is the general feel I'm getting here

Why can't you just modify?

Will a room only discount come out for later November and early December at some point?

Here's hoping there are some later November dates....

I would not say SOL but you will need to call and see if you are able to get these changed over to free dining if it is indeed offered starting 04/25. My suggestion would be to call and while you are waiting for a CM see if you can change one or more of your reservations on-line by modifying.

I'm not sure with the double room on the first reservation I can? I'm very confused with everyone's different takes on things.......

OK, hmm. I couldn't figure out why. Not sure if you can or not.

Good evening everyone!

I would like to start directing you all to the new thread...

I have been informed that our original page (this one right here) will shut down automatically at page 250.

So, we must relocate to the new page.

Spread the word and see you there!

Can FD be used on a split stay? Our last split stay was booked through a TA as two separate reservations so tix were tied to the first part. Could FD be applied to split stay trip if both resorts are included in the promotion?

Yes it can, but FD requires TICKETS, so if you want FD through both stays, you would need tickets on both stays. You can save the tickets from the second stay and use them for a future trip, but you would still be out that money now.

United and the drive before we leave and after we get back isn't worth the savings. I like to get off the plane and know I have a 15 minute not a mulitple hour drive. Of the 5 I only pay for myself and DD. We are leaving after school on the day we leave to reduce the number of days missed. There was. 9 am flight for the same price (always check prices midweek on kayak). This flight had been $351 and then bang...5 tickets left at this price. Cheapest I have ever flown out of Bangor and only $30 more than my cheapest from Portland.

Yeah but for the $500~ we'd save we decided to make the trip down to Manchester. Definitely get that it's not for everyone though as my SO thought I was crazy at first but then showed the savings and let him know it was nonstop and he was sold.

Say you have a a room only for the first part, for only like 2-3 nights and then a free dining stay later. Can you just book your tickets for the second half and activate them early? I thought I read you can do that somewhere

Yes. You can activate your tickets early for a room only. Just remember they expire 14 days after your first use.

Oh if I was saving $500 I would have a different feeling.....but I only save $60.....with Gas, food and possibly a nights stay on one end or the other would eat that up.....but $500 would be a no brainier. Are you close to Bangor?

Yes. If for example FD started on Dec. 10th, but you were arriving on the 8th, you could do room only reservation for the first two nts., and the package for the rest. You can activate your tickets early at Guest Relations at a park or Disney Springs. You would just pay OOP for food for the first two days.

Thanks! I knew I saw that somewhere.

This is the most perfect typo EVER.

Lol. Just noticed.

Looks like we will be there at the same time.....we are hoping for Pop!

Also remember that you will not be able to do FP+ for that first part, because you don't have tickets tied to it.

Im still craving that churro. Maybe a mickey pretzel.

Right. I figured that was the case.
