Disney Extends Free Dining And Fall Codes Are Up

I guess reservations must really be down because Free Dining is now ongoing through 11/24/2009 then star up after Thanksgiving and run through 12/17/2009. If you stay in a Value you get the Quick Serve Dining Plan which includes two Quick Service Meals and two snacks per day).  Moderates, Deluxe and Deluxe Villas will all get the regular Dining Plan (one quick service meal, one sit down meal and one snack).  It looks like the only Deluxe resorts in this are Wilderness Lodge and Animal Kingdom and the two Deluxe Villa Resorts are Old Key West and Saratoga Springs.

All sounds great huh?  Well here is the fine print.  There are some blackout dates and you have to stay at RACK rate.  You also have to buy a park pass too.  For some people it works out, if you have an annual pass it is not so good.  Run the numbers for yourself and decide.

Here is another option:

Fall Discount Rates are also up for Disney Visa holders, Annual Pass Holders (code JYF)  and anyone who has the codes (use KHP).  35% off selected resorts with availability.  No dining plan or tickets included in this one.  They do not say anywhere the list of hotels involved but I am going to guess the list is similar to the Free Dining Hotels.

I hate the WDW reservation system, all of the codes are given to Expedia so I use them Book your dream Disney vacation at Expedia.com!

Personally I would choose Saratoga Springs – one of my favorite resorts at WDW.  We are going for Food and Wine and staying at the new Bay Lake Towers.  I am so excited, we have been waiting for that Magic Kingdom view for a long time. No Free Dining or Discouts for us – DVC members are not eligible but hey I will be sitting on my balcony watching Wishes so it is a great trade off!
