Disney Pin Codes

Exciting news today, Disney is beginning to send out pin codes to some people for Disney Free Dining in the fall!!  This is very encouraging that this offer will be extended to the general public in the future.  Although it may not be for a few months yet. 

What is a pin code?  This is a special code sent out by Disney Destinations usually via email or regular snail mail.  If you get something look closely for a set of letters and numbers.  These offers can vary and can be a room discount, a package discount or the infamous Disney Free Dining!  To get a pin code, be sure to sign up on a Disney site and it helps to "save" vacations that you price out.  This lets Disney know that you are interested in staying on-site.  Remember that a travel agent can apply  a pin to your new or existing reservation.  And a good Disney Specialist will be on the look out for you if a deal is available to the general public.

Disney Free Dining is one of the best deals that big families who are staying on-site at Disney can get.  For example, for our family, free dining can save us $1400 off of our vacation!  The major drawback, of course, is that you are required to stay on-site and have tickets for the parks.  However, many people (my family included) wouldn't dream of staying anywhere else!

Now, there are people who say that Disney Free Dining is not as good of a deal as it seems because you are paying rack rate for the room.  However, if you were planning on purchasing the dining plan anyway, this is a great deal!  And, you have to eat right?

I love, love the Disney Dining Plan!  Why?  Well, honestly, it is so wonderful to go to Walt Disney World and not have to worry about paying for food while we are there.  Everyone can order what they want and get snacks and I don't have to say "No!".  And, it makes our trip an all-inclusive vacation, which I adore!  We can enjoy character meals, which means that we do not have to wait in as many lines to meet some of the characters- they come right to our table!  We have even done a character meal every day! 

I am really hoping to be able to get the Disney Free Dining for our trip in November and this latest news of pins is very exciting!  Hopefully some pixie dust will be coming my way!
