    Hi Melanie!

    Thanks for the kudos to the Moms Panel Team! We appreciate your feedback and we LOVE hearing from great, repeat Guests like you!

    There's no real way to know what fantastic offer Disney will offer next or what resorts or time periods it may cover. What I recommend is to book the Resort and Package you're comfortable with in terms of price & date. That way, if a special offer doesn't become available for your travel dates, you'll still enjoy the great vacation you had planned and budgeted for!

    Then, keep an eye on the Walt Disney World website's 'Special Offers' section, local newspaper and tv commercials!

    If and when a new offer comes out, call (407) 939-7675 and mention that you have an existing reservation and would like to switch to the "such and such" offer. The Cast Member will advise you of availability under the offer and can even help you compare to determine what's best for you! The offer may vary by resort level in terms of which properties have availability, what % discount is available or what 'free' add-ons such as dining are being offered.

    For example, I was once booked at Disney's Port Orleans French Quarter Resort when a 'Buy 4 nights Get 3 nights Free' offer came out. I called in, but that particular offer was sold out at POFQ. We couldn't receive a discount off our existing package price at a moderate resort, HOWEVER we ended up being able to upgrade to a Deluxe Resort under the new offer & our total package price remained almost exactly the same! We were thrilled!

    I hope you'll visit again soon with any additional questions you may have.

    Wishing you a very Magical time as you plan your Walt Disney World vacation Melanie!
