We booked Caribbean Beach two months ago knowing that in the past Port Orleans either wasn't included or had severe restrictions. We gave Karen from MJ the go-ahead to change up our reservation to get the free dining. We already had Park Hoppers on our 8-day passes. So, we didn't have to scramble or do anything.
We're planning to do the same thing next year, but another family is going with us. There will be ten of us, and free dining, if it's offered, will save us a ton.
Are you going to try to get the bounceback?

We'll just have to wait and see! I am actually returning for a conference in November, and our daughter's High School marching band (in which she plays saxophone) is coming back in February. We're thinking about upgrading to APs again at the tail end of this September trip. If that happens, we might not be able to get free dining next year.
