Hi Dave!
We just switched our reservations to AKL on 11/9/14 to 11/16/14 to take advantage of the free dining plan. Arriving on a Sunday, and with crowds increasing due to the deal, would you make any itinerary changes? (I am totally nervous to do dining reservations Tom morning!)
Della, I am–and guess it will be released in late July or early August.
Hi Dave, thanks so much for the information you provide…it’s a wonderful service. Just wondering if you are expecting room rate deals for early November, and when might it be announced, if any. I keep checking, just to make sure. Thanks so much
Anne, yes the two deals work very differently.
The free dining deal is all about arrival dates, and covers your whole trip (up to 14 days) even if your arrival date is the last day of the eligible period.
The room rate deal only applies during its specified period, so if you arrive on its last day, you get just one day of discounting.
Paul, if you are going anyway then go ahead and book!
