Bounceback offer

[Tears0Fire]

Hi all, so we're 3 weeks from our trip tomorrow and I have been waiting to find out any information for the current bounceback offer. The most recent one ended on Oct 31st. I know I can just be patient and wait to see when we get there but I would like to try to plan out what will work best for us and I hate to have to try to plan and figure out when we can be relaxing and enjoying our current trip. No matter what there is an 80% chance we'll book but we are getting married next fall and obviously have some obligations this up coming year.
Anyway I was wondering if anyone has any idea if a new offer has been released and what it is?
Also I figured since I'm asking questions, we have four people staying in our room, can we only book one "bounceback"? Honestly my brother and his girlfriend don't even know what a bounceback is and would rely on us to book anything anyway but I'm curious)
Thank you for any info

We leave in 15 days and I've been wondering the same thing. As far as the number of rooms you can book, we were told we could book one room for every adult 18 and over. Hope that helps.
Disney World, here we come!
(That's what my then three year old son said when we cleared customs on our 1st Disney trip.)

My wife asked a similar question a few days ago and got this response which may help you.

this is from years of experience with Bounceback offers. If Disney continues with their same pattern for 2017, this is what to expect ~

Resort Guests who vacation in November & December will have a room discount offer for various dates in 2017. The percentage will depend on the level of resort booked for the bounceback (usually 15-20% for values and moderates, 25-30% for deluxe). You do not have to book a room at the same resort level you are currently staying at. Resort Guests who vacation in January though July receive the same room discount offer for the current year (2017). Resort Guests who vacation in August through October will have a free dining bounceback offer, for limited weeks in 2018.

Additionally, rooms for these offers are limited and certain room categories may be excluded (usually the cheaper views.) While free dining is valid for your entire stay even if your vacation begins on the last day of the offer, room discounts are valid only for the days in the promotion period.

For 2016, the room discount bounceback offer excluded the months of October and November; most of March and December; all holiday periods (MLK, Presidents Day, Easter, Memorial day, Labor Day) and various weekends throughout the year.[/USER]

We are onsite right now and Bounceback is room only - 30% for Deluxe, 25% for Mods, & 20% for Values with the usual excluded properties. Also some block out dates like all of October & November.

Thank you all for the info, we were there last year at the end of Oct and had that offer. I was honestly holding out hope for something else but hey a deal is a deal.

Has the blackout been this extensive in the past? I wonder if these blackout dates are indicative of Disney cutting back on discounts during those periods... meaning no free dining for those months?

This was the bounce back room discount offer for 2016. Many fall blackout dates. (Dates in blue were valid offer dates.)

Bounce back offers are by far the best way to save money for your WDW trip. Highly recommend doing them. We've gotten Resorts up to 30-40% off at deluxe resorts by bounce back offers. It's nice to stay at a deluxe for $325 a night rather than $475
