Juat a plug for Magical Journeys here... I'm sitting here at work unable to personally do anything about the Free Dining annoucement. But I contacted Melissa at MJ in advance over the weekend and let her know that if it was offered to Disney Visa holders today that I wanted to change my reservation to it. Now I can sit here and know that they're taking care of it for me!

I 2nd that plug for MJ!
I emailed Karen to book me a trip starting the 21st this am, even before i read the official word here. i checked email mayb an hr later as I was getting ready for work
and she had already responded to me.
She has booked several trips for me, one in May now the one in Sept.
these are my only vacations I take, my only things i spend money on and I dont have to stress w Karen and MJ watching out for me.

What is the special exactly?

Will we be paying rack rate and receiving the DDP for free?

Also, if you book now, how much of a deposit is required and is it refundable?

Thank you in advance for any details.

Magical Journeys is the best. I just got an e-mail from Wendy that she converted my reservation to the free dining plan and it's only 6:30am. This is why I give MJ's info to all my friends!

Keep up the great work MJ!

I'm assuming that DVC members are exempt?.....

If using points - yes. The special is for guests booking a Magic Your Way Base package of 3 nights or more. If you don't use points and opt to pay rack rates for a room and a park pass then you are eligible.

I'd take a large villa with points over free dining any day.

[Sunshine1010]

It's kind of a bummer that I can't get the special if I use my points to get a room. (I'm also an AP member)....

....sniff sniff

Yay! I convinced DH that IF they ran free dining, we would be going back, and even contacted MJ for the first time...sent over my Disney Visa and WE ARE GOING BACK!!!!!!

Is it crazy that we were just there Jan into Feb and we're going back again in Sept? Prior to this, DH said he'd be ready to go back in Sept 2009, which is WAY too long to wait!

All I have to do now is get through work so I can come home and made ADR's!

YAY!!!!

[magicofdisney]

Is it crazy that we were just there Jan into Feb and we're going back again in Sept?

Nope. We did a trip in Feb., doing another in May and now we'll have a week in Sept. also! With my large family of 6, staying in a value and getting this promo is EXCELLENT!

I'm so excited this was finally released!!! This is going to make our Honeymoon even more enjoyable.

On a side note, I'm also glad we have already booked 4 of our ADR's!!

[Jerseychic]

I'm going to be soooo anxious waiting for my Magical Journey's TA to get back to me with new FD confirmation. I know she'll take care of it but gosh until I know it's official

If Disney Visa holders get first rights to this what is the chance that it will be sold out till Thursday when it is released to the rest of the public??? I called my AAA agent and told her I wanted to rebook when they offeed it to the public, but the article says if there is still space available. Could this Stay, Play and Dine package be gone by Thursday with the Visa Disney cardholders!!

[Jerseychic]

Ok, I spoke to soon!!! Just got my confirmation form Debbie at MG, that I am booked for FD!!!!

I doubt it would be gone but I guess it depends on how many rooms they make available for the package. I remember 2 years ago we didn't book it until the last day it was offered so I would think there would be plenty of availability.

I'd like to give TerriSue at MJ a shout-out for emailing me at 7:30 this morning. I was able to book my airfare today for the flights I wanted and with my ADR's already setup this weekend we are in great shape. Now we just need to menally prepare for taking 3 kids (oldest 4) to DW for 8 nights. At least my MIL will be there to help us.

I just found out about the free dining plan for packages from August 26 through September 22. I have already booked the package (almost a month ago) using my Disney Visa. My questions are— 1. our trip starts on the September 22, so would I be included? and 2. does anyone know if they will upgrade packages that have already been booked (if I would be included)? Any help is greatly appreciated.

[RPHX2NC]

Another THANK YOU to MJ's Wendy. My reservation was updated to include free dining. I never had to contact them, they are the best!
So glad my ressie's were done early!
