Disney Military Discount for 2011?

A DISNEY MILITARY DISCOUNT IN 2011?

Disney has not yet announced any Disney World military discounts for 2011.

Steve at MilitaryDisneyTips.com reminds me that each of the last two years the Disney military discount has been announced at the end of December/beginning of January.

He also reminds me that more years don’t have a Disney World military discount than do. [Read more →]

Disney World Discounts for Well into 2011 Announced

THREE NEW DISNEY DEALS FOR 2010 AND 2011

Walt Disney World has announced three new discount programs, each of which extends into 2011.

  • One discount offers free dining for many nights from 10/1/2010 through the end of September 2011.  (No, that’s not a typo…)  A five night stay with four days of tickets minimum is required.  The deal needs to be booked by December 20, 2010.  See this for more on the free Disney dining deal.
  • A second deal offers a Disney gift card valued from $200-$500.  Most dates from 10/3/2010 through February 16, 2011 are eligible—many more dates than are eligible for the dining plan.  A five night stay is required. The deal needs to be booked by November 21, 2010.  See this for more on the Disney gift card deal.
  • The third deal offers discounts of between 25% and 40% off of regular room rates, with the same dates and “buy by” details as the gift card.  No minimum length of stay has been defined—although Disney World’s website notes that “minimum length of stay requirements may apply for Friday and Saturday arrivals.”  See this for more on the Disney room rate discount deal.

FREE DINING AT WALT DISNEY WORLD

Because Disney World has extended its free dining plan offer into some of the period when this site recommends first time family visitors go to Walt Disney World, this page addresses a couple of natural questions that emerge:

  • Why do value resort visitors only get the quick service plan?
  • If my hotel deal covers only the quick service plan, do I have to pay full price to get the recommended dining plan?
  • If a period is excluded from the offer, does that mean it is going to be very crowded?
  • Since the week you recommend doesn’t offer free dining, what’s the next best week?

WHY DO VALUE RESORTS GET ONLY THE QUICK-SERVICE DINING PLAN?
