They’ve always really limited availability for the offers in the cheap rooms at each resort. This is the first time that I’ve seen it so overtly acknowledged though. It’s an up selling offer. It spreads more people into the more expensive rooms, producing greater capacity at the entry level room end.
We’ve booked Art of Animation Little Mermaid room. If we chose to change our resort reservation to “take advantage” of this offer, we would get $250 ish at Pop, and would save a little on the room rate maybe since AoA is most expensive. But we would lose access to the big blue pool, which is what we chose AoA for.
If we upgraded to CBR for our $490 of food vouchers would “only” cost us £1500 or so. Doesn’t look so tempting when you put it in those terms!
There might be some decent break even combinations on this deal, but it depends on where you were planning to stay before the options were released.
