I've only booked direct with Disney once as have got cheaper free dining rates with third party companies every other time. Harder to comment on packages though as flights vary so much.
Hi Vickie. Do you have to email Orlando Attractions for a quote? Might try them next time we go. Thanks

You can email or call, but they don't do online quotes. I find it's normally best to call when free dining is released as they are inundated with emails

It's OrlandoAttractions.com

Orlando Attraction Tickets is a completely different company that don't sell hotels, free dining etc.

Can I just ask what people tend to do regarding booking with DDP? What's best, grab it as soon as it comes out or does it ever get cheaper if you wait a while? TIA

Accommodation prices during the free dining promotion are fixed, so there's no benefit in waiting to book. If anything, you might find it's more expensive to book later as standard rooms can sell out quickly which leaves only the more expensive room categories available. Also, the value of the gift card reduces as the promotion goes on. It normally starts at $200, then goes down to $100 in early July, and finishes in October, a couple of weeks before free dining ends.

Certainly don't wait would be my advice! The Yacht Club was £4,400 for our dates and duration when free DDP went live last year. After a few weeks all that was left was the Turret Suite... £16,000 for 11 nights Erm, thanks but no thanks (well unless you want to throw a bit of free Disney magic our way )

Thankyou for your replies. I've told DD we need to book as soon as they come out because the DIBB says so!

Does depend on time of year though, the hotels aren't full all year round. That's any hotelier's dream!
