Discounts Becoming Available?

We are booked for 7 nights in April. I called when I saw the promotion for up to 30% off room and 1 free day of park tickets to see if the discount could be applied to our trip. They looked but said all of the promotions for the resort we are staying at are taken. Is there a possibility of them becoming available again? Like someone who received one of those discounts could cancel their trip, so would a discount become available again if that happened? Should I keep trying? I didn't think to ask when I was on the phone. Also, is it kikely thast there will be more promotions between now and April? I have no idea how often they run these promotions. This is my first trip! Thanks for the help!

It is highly unlikely that the same promotion would become available for your resort even if there were cancellations. Some resorts (POFQ for example) are not included with every promotion and you might be told "all the discounts are taken" when in reality there were no discounts to begin with.

Also, whatever is the current promotion for April will probably be the only one offered, since Disney does not do any "last minute" special offers.

If a discount is important to you, you will likely have to change resorts.

Wow! I answered my own question! And the answer is yes!!!! I called again and there was a discount available for us! I was able to save $889 between my reservation and my sister's! Yay!
What the person I talked to said is that they may have added more discounts for our resort or some people may have canceled.
Well then I am very happy that some Disney magic came your way!! :happy:

I just booked our trip this week as well and encountered the same thing . We actually wanted to stay at carribean beach or try out the new animation resort and couldn't get either. Maybe I will keep calling!

Art of Animation for the Little Mermaid rooms specifically are excluded from the discount so there wont be any chance of you getting those at all. Caribbean Beach is a possibility but that has been getting quite popular lately too. If you can be flexible on your resorts, the cost savings might just be worth it!!! Marie

Im sure AoA is lovely, my friends thought so but I haven't personally stayed there yet. That having been said, the Coronado is quite a step up!!! Be sure to check out the resort information page for Coronado on WDWMagic's main page. Also there is a Facebook page for Coronado Springs Resort Walt Disney World that I belong to, that has a ton of the latest and greatest info on this resort. You will have a great time Vol Fan!!!

we are going in early October...and are anxiously awaiting DDP discount announcements. even willing to push back into September if we miss cutoff.

i don't know how saving 900 dollars cant be important to a normal human being.
