We are going backkk..

[Alison1975]

Well we decided to book the bounceback while we were in Disney. We are staying for almost 1/2 the price it was this year because we can all stay in one room at PORS . I am kinda excited that it will be just the 5 of us. This past trip was harder having my oldest and my mom with us than I planned. so in just 348 days we will be back in the World!! We aren't telling the 2 youngest kiddo's until we are much closer to the trip. Declan knows and is sooo excited..lol

So since we are staying at PORS are the Alligator Bayou rooms the only 5 person rooms? We stayed there in 1999 right near the food court..loved it!

Whats a bouncebacck trip?

An offer in your room, usually for around the same timeframe a year from your stay, with a discount offer. They vary from percentage off to free dining but it must be booked before you check out. Sometimes there is no actual paper in the room but if you call the reservation line they can let you know if there is a current offer.

while you are on staying on property there is often what;s called a bounceback. A special deal you can get if you booked while you are still there. We got 12 days of free dining for 5 of us. It beats hoping they will release it for the dates we want. Also I didnt have to book a specific room category.In march when I booked this last trip we had to book a garden view room to get FD...this time we were able to book a standard room.

How much does it cost to book a trip???

 

[Alison1975]

$200

How much does it cost to book a trip???

to hold the room.. and in my view $200 now for peace of mind knowing we can get what we want and when we want it is perfect. Last year being worried they wouldnt release FD for when we wanted go was maddening for me..lol. Now we are booked and i am counting down the day until we can book dining.. we have 12 credits to use afterall..lol

When I was FIRST hearing of Bounce Back offers, I was thinking you had to pay up front and was like "What kind of deal is that??" and then learned about their payment option thingie. $200 IS awesome for that peace of mind. Knowing you WILL be back and that you're ready to go AND 12 DAYS OF FREE DINING FOR 5????? AMMMMMAZING!!!!

p.. this trip we didn;t have dining for 3 of the days and even being conservative we spent a lot of money on food. As much as I'd love to do a split stay again we won't just for the food factor.

How awesome!!!!! I hope to follow your lead, and if we get a bounce back offer when we go in 3 weeks (YES 3 weeks!!!!!!!) We always do October, so wish my wdwmagic brothers and sisters all were able to visit at the same time. Congrats!!!

It's wonderful that you get to enjoy The Magic again!

 

[HouCuseChickie]

So glad you were able to book and get a bounceback. I'm really hoping for one when we go in Nov. Nice savings if you're lucky enough to get it.

 

[Alison1975]

We picked pretty much picked the exact same time frame we went this time. I found the weather perfect, the crowds light and just fully enjoyed going in Sept!

 

[EvilQueen-T]

love love love the bounceback deals!!!

 

[Alison1975]

love love love the bounceback deals!!!

I do now..

 

[Sweet Melissa]

Bouncebacks are great, aren't they? I'm hoping we can book our wedding/honeymoon trip on a room-only bounceback discount when we're down there next month.

 

[KwikE]

So I call the front desk while I am there and ask if there is a bounceback offer available?

There may be a flyer in the room about it. If not, you can ask housekeeping (they keep them in their carts) or call down to the front desk. I don't know it off the top of my head, but perhaps someone can post the phone number you call to book a bounceback here for you as well.
