Hey, this deal has been released. See this!
ROOM RATE AND FREE DAY DEAL TO COME OUT JANUARY 6?
Expectations are high that a room rate and small ticket deal for April 20-June 15, 2014 will come out for the general public Monday January 6.
Reports this morning are that this deal is already available to Disney Visa cardholders.
The deal seems to include not only a room rate discount, but also one free ticket day after a minimum buy: e.g. buy 4 days, and get the 5th free.
I don’t have any more specifics, but as I learn them–or my buddy Joe Black tells me them–I’ll pass them along!
HOW TO SCREW THIS DEAL UP
Well-meaning but inept advice is showing up here and there that non-Visa people–that is, the rest of us–should book now to “lock in your room,” and then convert your room to the deal later.
Deals don’t work this way.  You are competing for the inventory of the deal with everyone else, whether or not you already have a room.
So booking before the deal does not help you one bit in getting the deal once it comes out.
Moreover, the more who book now, the less pressure there is to have a deal at all–so booking now may reduce the number of rooms made available, or even narrow the dates offered.
So don’t book now, unless you plan to go with or without the deal!!

Thank you,
Shelly, the discount is only on the room rate, not on anything esle. And the extra ticket day is just that–not a free night at the hotel…
I have seen this discount, and I am a little confused on how the discount works if book a Magic Your Way. I understand that x resort gets x discount, but how does that translate for the rest the tickets and food portion? Also, does one free ticket day, mean just a ticket for the parks or a day of the “package’? Thanks for any insight!
Same situation here – I have had a Disney Visa for so many years – and have never gotten an email or a pin.
