Boo-yah! Free dining is back!
 
I just got an email from Disney Rewards. Free dining is open to Disney Visa holders and will be open to everyone else May 2nd. Travel dates are a little more limited than last year (unless they decide to extend it later). For now, it's August 28 - Sept 24 (check in on one of these dates and you'll have free dining for your entire stay).

Reminder, we are having a MouseScrappers meet at the end of Sept (I'm arriving Sept 24), so think about coming at the same time!! :yeah:

UPDATE

Here are the dates currently available for Free Dining

Oh I hope hope hope they extend it a little further! I am going Oct 4-9 and would love some free eats!

Will it be the regular dining plan or the counter service dining plan?

Carolc 04-28-2011 02:12 PM

It’s the same that they offered the last few times. The Quick Service plan (2 quick/counter service meals and 2 snacks per person per night stay, plus refillable mug per person) is included with Value resorts (but you can upgrade for a small fee to the regular Disney Dining Plan, which I highly recommend). The other resorts come with the regular Disney Dining Plan (1 table service meal, 1 quick service meal and 1 snack per person per night stay).

Thanks for sharing it with us Carol!
I have been waiting to hear if they're offering it again this year! I'm soooo excited!:)

The forced purchase of the memory book is annoying. That adds $100 to your bill and if you don't want it, too bad. :(

Hey Carol, is it for sure that free dining will be booked tomorrow? I changed our dates just a few minutes ago to 9-24 to 10-8, but the ressie CM was adamant that free dining was not going to come out tomorrow or at all as a general public offer?
