Excellent info! Thanks for putting this together. I never knew all of this.
Thanks.. I did think it would be helpful to have all this info in one place.

That's awesome.. the kids will LOVE AKL!
I hope so.....I'm nervous now that I see where AKL is and the comments on bus times to parks? Oh well - I think it will be a different experience and I have heard the resort is really nice. Can you tell me - can you sleep 5 in a room at AKL? I want to request the bunk bed option for one of the rooms, but I wasnt' sure if they all came with day beds? Curious.
Thanks
I've read thru the thread on Resort Board and this deluxe is not 5 in room- ok because my mom put one of my kids on her room anyways...so as long as we connect the kids will be good with sleeping next door. Another part of the adventure taking turns in Nana's room! LOLNot sure, but I don't think you can in a standard room, unless you carry a single airbed, or put a young child in one of the beds!
AKL and WL are known as being the smallest deluxe rooms, unless you book a larger (deluxe) room.
Dancin Disney style - that's a great idea..
Registering for :

Ordering a DVD planner once you've signed up..
Any other ideas?

Hi Knox,
Do we have any recent updates on what Bounceback (if any) is being offered at the resorts right now? I know there was something about tiered discount levels based on what resort is booked...but not sure of the dates. Thanks!
I booked a bounce back trip when we were there in December. The dates were on the computer (CR has in room computers) under my messages. If you don't have a computer just ask at the front desk or use the phone in your room to call reservations (I don't recall the onsite phone number). As posted in December, the 2008 bounceback dates were:
1/6 to 2/2/08
2/24 to 3/1/08
3/30 to 4/12/08
8/10 to 9/27/08
These dates apply to deluxe reservations. (Villa dates are roughly the same but the offer for them is 40% off.) The Moderates may also be included (but they were not listed on the computer.)
The instructions say you must book before you checkout (I'd be interested to know if there is some flexibility in this requirement).
I originally booked an April bounce back but when I returned home, I changed the dates (to January) and still received the 30% discount. I've heard there are other bounceback discounts such as the dining plan but I didn't see those listed at the time.
Also, it took about 20 minutes to get through to the reservations personnel from the hotel room phone when I called so be prepared to leave plenty of time when you call.
