We booked AKL for three ,with free dining. After the free dining ended I added my step daughter to the booking for a £50 deposit and she got the free dining too.

We used My Magic as they give a "dibb discount" and were cheaper than booking direct. When the announcement came that the pool would be closed at AKL for refurbishment they were one of the quickest at getting us moved to another (more expensive) hotel at no extra cost.

Really pleased for you , our booking is confirmed with disney but nothing available for any date change so I reckon I’m going to have to make the flights fit the booking ( not know until flights are released) or drop my booking .

Can someone please explain this all to me please?
So I have booked at Caribbean Beach resort end of next year.
I have the QSDP included.
Is there an option or something to move to another hotel for something else like the DDP but keeping same price? Sorry being a complete thicky as not sure what OP benefit is getting?

The op ideally wanted to stay at POR, but there was no availability. So, they took a gamble by booking at a different resort to lock in their dates and the offer, in the hope that POR would become available and they could change their booking to there. Fortunately POR has become available and they've got the holiday they originally wanted

I am glad I secured the booking it is giving me something to look forward to but now I have seen your post the OKW 1 bed villa seems tempting if it comes up for my dates...So will be looking out if its not a massive price difference. Hope you get your OKW soon.
