B. Free Dining Promo
From time to time, Disney offers a Free Dining promo. It is one of their most popular offers and it can book up quickly after it is released. Historically, they used to offer this promotion in the Fall, but recently they have started to make changes to that. It can be offered at any time during the year if Disney feels they need to provide some incentive for people to book.
When you get the free dining promo, you will not be able to apply any other discounts to your package. Purchasing the free dining plan does require that you buy a package, which will include your hotel and tickets. They have also recently started to add additional requirements, for example in past years it was required that your passes be park hoppers. They have sometimes also made it a requirement that you are a Disney+ subscriber to be eligible for the promotion. Just pay attention to those details to see if they align with what you want to book
It’s important to note that your date of arrival is what counts if you can apply the free dining promo. You must be checking in on a date when the promo is available. Even if the rest of your vacation falls outside of the promo dates, you will still be able to apply it to your entire stay as long as you check in during the eligible dates.
