Only just found out about the new offer today and I'm really pleased with my saving! I was already booked at CSR for 05/09/21 14 nights, 3 adults for £4,239.72 and $100 gift card.

I've rebooked under the same dates for £3,496.13 plus $200 gift card and they've moved over my original £150 deposit and $100 gift card - really pleased!

Truth be told we never usually get the maximum benefit from QSDP and could often share meals but we just enjoy the convinience

Now to read through the Virgin booking conditions ha
If Free Dining doesn’t come back but you still want the feel of the DP why don’t you put the cost of the QSDP onto gift cards, then eat the way you want? I’d be willing to bet you’d come out ahead. This has been my plan.

That’s a nice idea, to be honest I feel we’ve a decent head start on it now, overall it’s about £1.5k less than we paid in 2019

Now just got to contact Virgin this morning as there’s no mention of the $200 gift card on the confirmation email

Originally booked for August 2020, Rescheduled to August 2021 back in June.

Last Tuesday I called to add the new free nights offer on, same dates, same 5th sleeper room at CBR. The CM said she had to cancel original booking and do a new booking, but no amendment fee so got a new booking ref.

She said she wouldn't be able to combine the $200 gift card with the new booking, which is as I expected so only 1x$200 gift card, but she then mentioned that I may be eligible for an aditional $100 Gift Card, didn't go into detail as to why but said she couldn't guarantee it but if I was eligible it would appear on my new invoice.

This morning I had and email with my new invoice (still needs the deposit transferring, but I know from last time this may take a few days more)
It shows 5th Sleeper at CBR, $200 gift card and $100 bonus gift card

With me keeping the same dates, hotel and room type, does anyone know how I can tell if MDE is showing the old or new reservation?

She said that my reserved park days should stay on, but I just want to check for myself and make sure.

Phoned to add offer to current booking, they rebooked (same dates etc) said my parks should stay on MDE. Said I could have $200 plus $100 gift cards. Deposit not showing on new invoice yet or the extra $100, hopefully these will show soon

I would also like to know this. I transferred like for like same dates etc but considerably cheaper and gift card. As you say how can you tell if it’s updated on MDE or doesn’t it change ?

I had to manually link mine as it was a new booking reference.

Took about 5 days for me to get a new invoice (and a cancellation invoice for previous booking) and this showed the extra $100 and the deposit had transferred over
