POFQ standard rooms are included. POR standard rooms aren't. Are you sure they're reduced in price and that you weren't looking at a higher room category before? Standard rooms are the lowest price ones.

POR and POFQ are different resorts, albeit sister resorts. The standard rooms are only excluded at POR, not POFQ, so that's why you got free dining
They won't be reduced in price as discussed eye don't alter room prices once they've been released for a specific offer. More likely a lower priced room category.

If you're looking at the 'original price' and thinking that prices have been reduced based on that, then that's simply the price including paying for the dining plan. Then the final price is with the free dining plan discount. There aren't any reduced room rates.

I see that makes sense - I think we will wait until we get back in September and make a decision then.
We can live without the gift card

The gift card normally reduces to $100, so you still might get something if they do the same again. You do need to be careful of standard rooms selling out though as there's a set allocation of them for free dining. One thing you can do is just book for 1 person and secure the room and $200 gift card with just a £50 deposit. Then, if you decide to go, you just add the rest of your family on and pay their £50 deposit at that point.

I don't believe it will as the allocation for the UK is completely separate for the WDTC .

Didn’t realize that.
