Congratulations! You received an upgrade PIN, which you CAN'T ask for. Nothing to cause guilt.
Personally, having stayed at both OKW and SSR, I prefer SSR (I own at SSR). I like the rooms at SSR better than OKW. I found the rooms at OKW to be dated as well as liking the QS options better at SSR.

The email sender for us was DisneyDestinations. Definitely check your e-mail daily. We called a friend of ours who is going the week after us to let them know of our good fortune and told them to check their e-mail as well. Sure enough, they had the same offer, so now they are staying at OKW instead of the All-Stars. She said she likely would have just deleted it without reading if we hadn't called to tell her about it.  to all!

Congratulations and enjoy the upgrade. My DD and her family as well as her in-laws got the email and upgrade, too! They were at POP and now they are going to be in a studios at SS. It is really great for them as they have 3 children (5, 3, 6 mos.) and would have had to rent a refrig. and now they don't. Also, it is nice to have that balcony! I am just thrilled for anybody that got upgraded, what a great way to start the "magic"!

Awesome! Makes me almost wish we hadn't upgraded from All Star Music to POR a few months ago!
Have an amazing time, and don't let others get in the way of your FANTASTICNESS! (I made that up)

"It's snowing still," said Eeyore gloomily.
"So it is."
"And freezing."
"Is it?"
"Yes," said Eeyore. "However," he said, brightening up a little, "we haven't had an earthquake lately."

Good for You!! Thats Awesome!!

I can't believe it, but I got this pin code too. Thankfully we got the e-mail within minutes of it being sent. We called right away and they gave us a 1 bedroom suite at OKW. We were originally booked at POP Sept. 11th-18th. I am so excited to get the chance to stay at OKW.

has anyone that booked through a travel agent (MJ or others) received this, or just folks that booked directly through Disney? I'm booked at POP , and I'm having a hard time explaining to DS why we won't be at SSR, which is where we stayed last time. I would LOVE to get this pin.

Thanks for the info!
I don’t know how true this is, but when I was talking with a Disney reservationist today she told me that if you booked on a bounce back offer from last year your not eligible for any pins/free offers. Does anyone know if this is true or not? I hope this is not true, we booked during that time last year and we have never received a pin of any kind. I read everyday of people getting pins and have always wondered why we have never gotten one. Could this be the reason why?
PS congratulations to all you lucky pin winners hope you all have great trips!

We were at the Grand Floridian in December and were on a bounceback offer. When we arrived we were greatly surprised that they had moved us to the Sugarloaf building.
This was our 50th anniversary trip so that may have had something to do with it.

OP, don't feel guilty. And congrats to all those who were lucky enough to receive those PINs.
We were staying at Pop Century 9/20 to 9/25, but I few weeks ago I switched us to OKW as a treat for my mom. Maybe if I had waited a smidge longer...
Michael Bluth: I need access to these files that are apparently for British eyes only.
Rita: Well, lucky for you, my whole face is British.

Congrats! Take that upgrade, run with it, and enjoy it!!
We got an amazing upgrade last year from garden view to concierge at the Grand Flo, and we never once, not even for a millisecond, felt guilty the entire 13 days we were there! Not when we were having hors d'oeuvre and champagne before dinner, or drinks in the evening, or roses and champagne in our room, or free gifts left for us.....NOT ONCE!!
Enjoy!!! Who knows....you may find a new favorite place to stay in WDW.
