Free Dining for the fall?

[sublimesting]

So, today was supposed to be the rumored day that Disney Visa card holders would be allowed to book for free dining but I haven't heard anything yet. Has anyone?

OMG I am anxiously awaiting this too!!

OMG I am anxiously awaiting this too!!

I'm starting to think that we may not be getting our expected offer....at least not today. I checked the Visa site, various travel companies, Disney, and some other fan sites to no avail. Hoping for a 9:00 AM release time maybe.

Pretty sure there is already a thread on this subject under the dining section.

I hope that's not the case!! Unfortuantely i don't have the Disney Visa...but I am awaiting the release, to confirm the rumors of the dates and resorts available. I did jump the gun and book a room at All Star Sports and will be upgrading to the regular dining plan. Cross your fingers!!!

I'm also anxiously waiting on the fall discounts! I don't have the disney visa either

I have the Disney Visa. No offers were made today. They don't usually offer it this early.

Hopefully free dining is eliminated completely.

just wait about a week or 2 after it is offered to Disney Visa card holders and then they offer it to the general public.

Free offer starts tomorrow check with your agent (AAA). For WDW Visa card holders.

I know a number of the reservationists were telling folks that it would be tomorrow. They said something about not everything being loaded into the system for them to do it today...although 'supposedly' a few random people booked it. Not sure about any of that. I'm just hoping they also offer some good room discounts.

Disney Visa offer for Sept-Nov is offered TODAY! POFQ and POR are definitely excluded! Good thing I am staying at Pop this year.

Har har, we're booked on a bounceback at FQ. I'm ccurious as to why the PO resorts are blocked...

 

[tinkhag6]

Please help me! I have a Disney Visa also and don't know how to get the free dining. Do I visa?

I am shocked that POR is excluded, being that there are so many more rooms than FQ. I do think that too many people probably already booked POR ahead of time and that hurt their chances on POR being included. They only include the resorts in these offers that need to fill the rooms. POR is pretty popular. So everyone booking Riverside early with hopes of getting FD there, Disney simply did not need to offer FD there.

Just call the regular reservation line at (407) 939-1936 and tell them you're a Disney Visa card holder and would like the free dining. It might take you a while to get thru, hearing rumors that CM's are telling people there are over 400 in the call queue.

Thank you so much!!!!

 

[EnchantedRose]

So happy this rumor was true! lol. I did jump the gun and booked a room, now I just have to wait to add FD next wed!!!

I got the 25% off room-only discount and bought tickets at UT before the price increase, so I still come out ahead even paying for our own food. Am glad that others will get the free dining, though.
