Good to know. So basically we should take advantage of a AP "package" instead of doing a bounceback if we want to do dining.

Sorry, I need to clarify. I was hoping we could do a bounceback offer for room only then just add on dining. My question was about whether or not bounceback offers require that you buy park tickets too, like package offers.

If we have a bounceback offer, will it be for hotel only, or will it require a park ticket/package purchase as well? Because we are AP holders we would just want to book a room and meal plan, not park tickets, but I don't know if this is an option with bounceback offers. Would we be just...

I seriously want to be you guys when I grow up. I always think of you when people ask me (insert sarcastic voice), "do you seriously think you will want to vacation there after your kids are grown?" Yes, yes I do.

Don't know about AirTran's policies, but we always book Southwest as soon as the schedule becomes available. Then I look at prices twice a day. As soon as it goes down, I exchange my tickets and get the money back in the form of a SW voucher. We travel so much we always use it before it...

When are you going? We will be there Jan 1-8!:sohappy:

I'm wondering if most people leave to go home on the 1st or stay another night. Jan 1st is a Sunday this year.

I just realized that if we flew in on Jan 1 instead of Jan 2 we could save a ton of money, so I was thinking of modifying our reservation to include Jan 1. The problem is that of course I had this thought 30 min after guest services closed. So I can't check on availability! I was hoping to...

I really love to request waiters that other people have recommended. We have two favorite waiters...Ms. Ruth Ann at Chef Mickey's and Melanie at Kona Cafe. Anyone have any they want to pass on? Here's my list of restaurants: B - Donald's Safari at Tusker House B - Kona L - Grand Floridian...

Craig...do you work at lunch time?! We will request you when we come in November and in January! I would love to have you as a server!:wave:

I can appreciate your perspective, which is why DVC probably isn't a great idea for you. Yes, we do anticipate visiting Disney every year for a while. Once our kids get old enough that they don't want to go every year, if that ever happens, we will go by ourselves, since we are just as...

It's actually a very easy calculation. We bought enough points for 1 wk every year for the next 32 years. I added up the buy in price, plus my dues for 32 years. I compared this total amount to the price I would pay for 1 week for 32 years at a 40% off discount at the very same resort (the...

I'm with everyone else...very well-written. What did they say when they called you?

Are you kidding? We don't leave until Nov 11 and I'm that way already. We will have to schedule a full week the week we leave or I might as well just stay in bed.

I am trying to plan our trip for Nov, and the evening we are hoping to see the Osborne Spectacle of lights the park closes at 6PM. Does that mean the lights will start up at 6?

And I always see people on here saying that DVC is designed to be 100% capacity as much as possible, so it's not a good gauge of the crowds either. I just booked a trip for Jan 2-8 and SSR was the only resort available too! That's still like 5 months away for goodness sake!

I'm with you, it is incredibly frustrating to know there is inventory out there that you can't book with your DVC. I have run into this problem with trying to book at Hilton Head. The first time I booked it was our first booking at DVC members and even though I called right at the 7 mo window...

You are the best. Thanks so much, I am calling right now!!!

You know, I feel your pain on the second guessing. We have been having a similar issue. I have a conference in San Diego, so we were thinking about all going out and doing Disneyland. The problem is, it's crazy expensive to fly a family of 4 out there, the hotels are expensive, DL is...

Oh...and sorry if my email sounds defensive...it totally isn't! I really love Disney dining and just wanted to say why. I know everyone has to do what is best for their family. :wave:
