Quick DDP question

"Free" dining is only offered to guests booking through CRO and paying full price for a room and park tickets package. No free lunch lol.....

Waitlist experience wanted
Published (2008-11-28 11:05:00)
Waitlists most often come through at the 31 day mark since if someone is going to cancel this is the last day they can cancel without their points going into a holding account. As for the point situation, if you already borrowed all your 09 Oct UY points your options are to: 1) Rent points from another member 2) Pay another member for the points and have them transfer into your account 3) Pay cash for the nights needed.

Quick DDP question
Published (2008-11-28 11:59:00)
Free dining is available only to those booking a room/tickets package through CRO. DVC members who are otherwise eligible can book the packages and pay for them - you don't HAVE to use your points to stay at WDW - but you can't stay on DVC points and get free dining.

We usually like to freeze a couple of dishes to bring with us (lasagna, BBQ brisket, etc) when we stay in condos on other vacations. I thought of doing this for our WDW trip - but realized we are staying at POP the first night before checking in at a villa. What's your experience in bringing frozen food? I'm thinking if I have a 12 hour drive and another day before I can get this in the ...

Ok, I know you can buy the DDP when you use DVC points for a stay, but can you also participate in free dining? Or no? DH and I just bought BLT points and are considering going in September for a short trip. Free dining would be a nice perk, so I figured I'd ask!

Renting risks? - 25 new posts
Started 1 week, 1 day ago (2008-11-26 09:26:00)  by Melani
We were RPFR'd so it looks like we'll have to rent if we want to take that trip. We're looking for another contract resale, but I don't want to be so upset if it doesn't go through. If we rent points we'll be able to relax on the time frame some. So my question was, what are the risks the DVC member who is making the reservation taking when renting 6 months away? I know I've read ...

We are staying in an AKV studio for 10 days. I know we don't have a full kitchen so no major meals in the room. We don't want to concentrate too much on using our meals each day but the savings soumnds good. Anyone out there...

For DVC members going to WDW at anytime during Christmas Week or early January from Chicago on Southwest Airlines, go now to the Southwest site and see if your price has changed. Just checked (we have a Dec 30 flight there) and made change (kept same flights and times) because price has dived about 33% from what we reserved just a few weeks ago. Don't know about other times or departing places.
