Dave,
I love your site! Thanks so much for sharing your valuable knowledge with the public and all of us Disney Lovers. My family and I are going to Disney World in Oct.- probably around the 20th. We are big “planners.” I was wondering if we went ahead and booked our stay and payed for it- what would happen if they offer a free dining plan right before we go? Could we get a refund/ change our rates? Just curious…. thanks so much in advance!
Hi Meagan, in general you can transfer a reservation to a deal if thje dealis being offered for your arrivcal dates and your hotel. It can be least risky to do this with a travel agent–and explain to them that such is your intent–as they can set you up in a package that’s most likely to be covered by a deal if one comes out! See the form on the right side of this site…
Hi Dave!
Quick Question, I am looking to book in October ’12, but there are not any free dining offers yet. I would like to go ahead and book so I can make dinner reservations, will I be able to get the free dining if they offer it later on if I book before it’s offered?
Hi AJ, there’s no special deal out for those dates.
Due to required business travel, our dates aren’t quite that flexible. My husband and pre-teen are looking to visit DisneyWorld for 5 days arriving the night of 3/8 or the morning of 3/10. We are looking at either a moderate hotel or the Wilderness Lodge. What are your recommendations on the best package? We would like to include the dining plan as my husband is a big eater and maybe even a club level room for additional goodies. Best deal?
