I've been wondering the same thing; am already booked for Sept 15th - Sept 23rd. I've heard it's been offered 2 years running and last year it was announced in the beginning of April.

I'm hoping it will be!! I'm booked in the value right now but if free dining is available I am going to upgrade to one of the moderate. Well be there Sept 22-27

Hello. The free dining was offered last year on April 1st. Only to Disney Visa card members. Then was later offered to everyone else. Not sure when that was but I think a month or so later.
I have my fingers crossed. Last year we got the free dining and it was excellent.
To tell you the truth, if it is not offered I will most definetly purchase it. It is well worth it.

If they do offer it later, is it only for Moderate resort people? Also, if you've already booked, do they apply it to your package?

I don't know if you can have it applied to packages already booked, but since I am already booked, if it is offered, I will be cancelling and then re-booking the same day

I'm wondering about the free DDP this year - they've got August covered with the Princess & Pirate Parties as a draw. They have the Playhouse Disney things in September followed by EPCOT's F&W Festival (late in the month).
I just wonder - are they using these "draws" in order to eliminate the 'free' dining plan?
-
Wow! This sounds amazing! We bought the dining plan last time and loved it, How do you get the free version?

We'll be at Coronado September 12th - 23rd and are also hoping for the free DDP. I've got my fingers crossed.

The free DDP is open to all WDW guests in all resort categories. That being said there is only a limited amount of rooms avaliable with the free DDP so make sure you call ASAP after it is announced.
They will apply the discount to your already booked vacation. We called last time when they realeased the package and the CM on the phone was more than happy to apply the discount.

How did everyone find out about the deal in previous years, and what time of year was it offered? Was it available at deluxe resorts?

we have used it the last 2 years.
2 years ago, i found out about it from here at intercot.
We use Magical Journey's as our travel agent and last year, the free dining was added to our reservation before I even knew it had come out.
when they offer the free ddp, it is available at all levels - value, moderate and deluxe.

Oh no, that would be really bad. What if you don't want to go to either? What a bad deal.

Do you have to travel in a specified month or is it available for any month?? Like if I am traveling later in the year but buy my package when it is available can I use it???

No, when they have offered this package, it is only available for vacations that start between a specific set of dates.

As Mook3y said, it's only been available between certain dates (late August-September), but the real kicker is you have to make your reservation by a certain date as well (mid June) so whatever offer they put out for the fall, whether that be free dining or something else, be sure you book before the expiration date!

I've heard rumblings that they won't offer it this year, but will offer something else. We booked Sept 8-15 at the POP, and will upgrade, too if discounts are offered.
Thanks to Karen at Magical Journeys . She puts up with all my "what-ifs" and changes!

We're already booked @ Pop for Sept 15-23 and I'd love to see free dining offered so Karen @ MJ can hook us up!

Another for Karen - she was so great at helping with my multitude of questions and scenarios before we finally booked!
