I’m half tempted in sacking our yacht club booking off as it only stands me at £200 and I need to add an extra night on to making up to three nights - looking at the swan and dolphin or might do I drive for a few nights instead.

I have done a dummy booking for our dates and there is no mention of a $200 gift card?

I can see people’s points in saying it’s still expensive etc etc no perks ...but for mugs like me (and there’s a few of us) who had booked just to be in the Disney bubble with no real perks the new savings are massive compared to what many of us had paid ...I’ve managed to go from a value AOA to a moderate Coronado springs which is £300 less plus received a $300 gift card aswell which to me is a great deal

It's a bit difficult to provide help when you've not indicated:

a) What your dates are.
b) What resort(s) you were looking at.

I dont really find these deals very good. Ok, you get extra free days and a gift card, but that will easliy be taken up with food etc and just by being onsite, Disney will claw it all back. The only deal that will be any use to me really is free dining , without that Ill probably cancel my Disney rooms and swap to my Dolphin reservations. Still it is a move in the right direction.

This is coming out way more £££££ than my current package with TUI, doesn't look like much of a deal to me. Mainly the more expensive room categories too it seems.

Of course, nothing is really free.

Is this their standard offer for this time of year? It’s scheduled to run through winter and ends at the end of March when they would normally start free dining shortly after. I’m not saying that they will start free dining so soon, seeing as there are the issues of promising people food in restaurants that they can’t guarantee capacity in at the moment, I’m just saying this seems like their standard offer.

If there is 25% capacity can't they just sell holidays at a 25% capacity rate and have whatever offer they want? More restaurants are opening and in the t&c don't they always say offers can be pulled or amended anytime without warning? I'm probably not explaining myself very well!

Same here - we had a booking at the Beach Club and as a result of the new offer we changed to the Yacht Club and it has reduced the cost by a lot of money. Whether or not we actually get to go is another matter
