Do you think Free Dining will be back this year?

I know it's been asked a million times, but has anyone heard any rumors?

I am just holding out for another 4 or 5 day trip in September. :c)

Haven't heard anything yet, but I'm glad you posted this thread cause I was wondering the same thing. We used it last year in August, and are keeping our fingers crossed!

I hope so! We have a 10 year anniv trip planned for mid-August and I would love to take advantage of this (it might even mean upgrading resorts, otherwise that money will go to purchase the DDP)

Well, I was basing that off of last year.

I fully expect to see it again this year, based on the UK offer from 2006 and the return stay they were doing late 2006 for free dining in September.

From the looks of things, we may be a bit behind last year, so sometime in April would be my guess. I will let you know if I hear anything else.

Re: Do you think Free Dining will be back this year?

I reeeeealy reeeealy hope so! I think with this discount I'll be able to convince my husband to go again and possibly stay on property since the hotel rates are generally cheaper at this time too.

Re: Do you think Free Dining will be back this year?

I already have FREE DINING already booked for my trip in August! Erin, I will be at WDW the last week of August through Labor Day! THAT'S when you should come! According to the CM I booked my trip with while I was at WDW, she said the offer should be available to the general public at the end of March, beginning of April and will only be offered for a limited time, since they already booked so many FREE DINING vacations with the PILOT FUTURE STAY promotion!

The dates are: 8/5-9/29

WDw offering it to people who booked while down there last month, has me heopful they will open that up for those dates to anyone. Here's to hoping anyway. My trip dates are right in that time frame.

The CM told me they most probably will offer it to the general public at the end of March/Early April. Be on the lookout!
