"Future Stay" Discount Returns for Guests Vacationing 8/31/07 - 9/28/07

[mjaclyn]

Does anyone know which dining plan is offered with this deal? I read about the 2008 changes and I'm assuming that the MYW + Free Dining only includes the basic dining - 1 TS (without appetizer & gratuity), 1 CS and 1Snack - is that the case? If Disney is offering this special package with the deluxe dining plan I would be very tempted to get it...

It is for the basic plan.

I have read about a possibility to upgrade the free dining basic dining to the deluxe plan for additional cost.
But no certain of that.

[kaytieeldr]

The Basic Dining Plan is included free; the Deluxe Dining Plan is included at $32 per adult per night (also known as a discount of $37.99 per adult per night, the same amount the Basic DDP promo saves). I don't know about the kids' plan, I'd expect the Deluxe version would cost $9.99 per child per night.

We booked for 8 days / 7 nites and were offred the Deluxe Dining plan at a discount. We stuck with the basic plan. I can't imagine the amount of food on the Deluxe plan. We would spend all day in restaurants.

[DisneyAggies]

Good question, Mook3y...
I'm guessing you have to book a minimum 5 nights 6 days.

[Ariel_Fan]

Here is a question for you all:

My parents and sister's family will be down there in a couple of weeks. Could my parents book at room for my family and themselves for next year while there??

[Disneytravels]

You are able to book upto 3 room reservations. But due note they have to be 200.00 deposit on each one.

[Katarch]

Does it have to be the same resort you stay in this year - or can you pick a different resort?

[chechas]

We just got back from Disney and booked this special for next year. To answer a couple of questions I have read here....the availbale dates for booking are Aug 30, 2008- Sept 27, 2008. you can pick any number of nights with 3 nights as the minimum. Yet again minimun of 1 day per person park ticket required. The package includes basic dining plan...you will be ofered upgrade to deluxe plan for $32/person/day. You can select a different resort for next year than the one currently staying in. Also I was told that the 1 day park pass can be applied to an AP renewal/purchase as long as we do not use the included park day before we upgrade/purchase/renew. It is $200 deposit at time of booking and you can cancel for full refund up to 45 days prior to arrival. It is $100 cancellation penalty for 45-6 days and $200 penalty for 5 days or less. Vacation insurance is available ...for 3 of us it was $120 total. Balance is due 45 days prior to arrival.

This year we did 2 people at BWI for 4 days/3 nights MYW w/free dining....using this special on day of check out we booked for 3 people at CSR for 4days/3 nights for next year with 1 day pass as we are getting annual passes since we are going back for WFF in Nov this year, then for Xmas in December and then again next September under this package.

I am so confused. I understand how to book, minimum stay, etc. If you have an AP and you book for next year by purchasing one day park pass, do you get free dining for the entire stay??

The Dining Plan is tied to the number of nights you stay at a Disney Resort. If you stay 3 nights, you get 3 days of the Dining Plan. A Magic Your Way Package requires at least one day park pass per person on the package. The park passes length and Dining Plan length are unrelated.

...you will be ofered upgrade to deluxe plan for $32/person/day.

Thanks for the additional details, I've added them to the original post.

[Ariel_Fan]

Thanks, Jason. I always wondered how someone with an AP could take advantage of these great deals!!

[potzie]

I called the other night to ask about this before we leave so we could get all our ducks in a row, I was told that you can only book 1 room for each adult booked into the room this year. As such with it just being my wife and I, we can have 2 rooms next year as long as one of us is one each room, but we were told we couldn't get a third room. Someone previously posted that you can book up to 3 rooms with the Bounceback promotion. Can anyone verify this one way or the other with first hand knowledge?

Cheers,

Brian

Well we were in WDW August 26th to September 2nd and never heard of this promotion. We had the Disney Resort promo chanels on, and we never recieved a flyer about it. I would have taken advantage of this for sure if I had known about it.

[pixiesmimi]

We were also there Aug. 26 - 31 and never heard a thing about it or received a flyer, etc. We also watched the Disney info channels on TV and never saw anything about it at CBR. I'm very disappointed because we would have book something for next year.

[lmkoons]

We will be going to Disney on the 22nd and will probably be taking advantage of this offer. However, we're not sure how many nights we'll want to stay in 2008 (either 7 or 9). So does anyone know if we'll be able to change the length of our stay once we've booked our package? And would we be better off to book 9 nights and possibly have to shorten it to 7, or book 7 nights and lengthen it to 9?

[mikelynn91]

Is the dining free for the future stay like this year or is this a paid dining plan???

[crltkcagle]

We plan on putting our deposit down when we get there on the 10th

[KODABEAR]

We also just returned and booked for next Sept. 2008. We were at WL and booked for AKL next year. Same class of room, same tickets and new dining plan. There is also a $189 discount. So our total for next year is $119 less then this year!! ( Room rates are the $ 79 difference)
