30 Percent Savings on Holiday Resort Stays Plus Free Park Hopper Option

Looking for some guidance from others based on past promotions...
We have a split stay booked (hotel only) for Pop 10/16-10/21 and Riverside 10/21-10/25. We plan to book a 7 day ticket (1 park per day) starting 10/17.
Does it make most sense to buy the 7 day ticket on Thursday to get the hopper upgrade and then cancel the Riverside stay and rebook to get the discounted rate?

Free hopper requires a package, not ticket only. I would cancel both resy's and then book Pop + 7 day ticket as a package, then book RS as resort only.

The G+ changes is great news. Makes the room discount and park hopper upgrade combo even more attractive!
I think tomorrow just got alot more busy for you
Onsite now gets first dibs on pre-selections. Hopper helps maximize expense of new G+. MK and HS are the most worthwhile to buy multiLL, being able to stop in AK/EP those days and get access is a great advantage over buying the service just for AK or EP only.
These last years felt like WDW took dedicated visitors for granted and forgot to throw them a bone once in a while.

I agree. I know a ton of hardcore Disney peeps hate it (they really just hate Genie+) and want the old FP system back. But if this new system is the way of the future, then you need to give on-site advantages.The G+ changes is great news. Makes the room discount and park hopper upgrade combo even more attractive!

Now just waiting to see if BCV is discounted at 30% tomorrow
For stays most Sunday to Thursday nights between Oct. 6 to Nov. 21. You can also get a free Park Hopper option added to your tickets when you upgrade to a Walt Disney Travel Company package that includes a non-discounted 4-day or longer date-based ticket.
I would definitely book Pop as a package but keep in mind that it has to be cancelled and re-booked because you cannot convert a room only to a package. Then make your Riverside stay a room only.
Absolutely! We have a great team with tons of experience so they are already all over this. We have had quite a few people already reach out so we are ready to rollThe G+ changes is great news. Makes the room discount and park hopper upgrade combo even more attractive!

Sadly no BCV studios There was one BWV studio but apparently I waited too long. Guess I'll just wait to see if inventory gets added!

The 40% for AP holders was surprising.
The agents have been rolling since it dropped. I’m seeing a lot of availability for certain dates.

I tried to rebook and the only room available actually added 800 dollars to my current booking.
Every previous trip added some savings. First time I got nothing. That's just. . . wow.

Looks like CCV / WL is only 10% off which is not nearly as good as my 30% PIN I’m sitting on. The one bedroom villa (which I was able to modify into) would have been $1200 MORE under this promo with the free hoppers. Unless we can find a 1 bedroom at BCV I’m gonna be staying put.

I tried updating my reservation online. It let's me go through the steps to make the change but it never actually changes it.

I called and they were able to give me the discount at Riverside. Had to go from a Standard View to Woods View room but there was still a good savings. They weren't clear on how to give the free hopper option, so they ended up just adding it and it automatically picked up the offer.

I was able to change mine. I clicked on the rate button and was able to switch from standard to AP M-Th discount.

I wonder if anyone knows, does Disney add inventory organically to these discounts/deals as time passes and they are still under-booked, or does adding inventory only happen if people cancel their trips as their payment due date approaches and they just recycle that room back?
What a joke.
Room only Discounts excluding Friday and Saturday nights.

We have seen it in the past but I am hearing that not all of the inventory is being utilized, so one can only hope
