I have not heard of this, but I am interested to find out....

Also, I printed the free birthday Disney tickets today for my family. If you have not heard anyone in your family can get a free ticket to Disney World or Disney Land on their birthday. For ages 18 and younger you will have to supply a birth certificate. Over 18 you supply a DL or photo ID.

We will be going June 6 - June 9. (Prime time for everyone)

We go twice a year to WDW. Check out this site http://allearsnet.com This site is run by Disney Junkies has reviews for all hotels on site and some off site. Deals, menus for all their restaurants, attractions, special events, tips & hints etc. You could spend a week surfing this site. We stay at a time share every other year. We do not own it but rent it. Check out http://redweek.com it's a site for people who are renting out their timeshare because they can't use them. They use a escrow company so you don't get ripped off.

The codes for free dining usually do not come out until April, but you can have it added to your trip even after you have booked. I booked in January and just had my travel agent add it when the code came out. I have a wonderful disney travel agent I found through HCW, she is aware of all the codes and deals. Feel free to pm me for details.

Also for those of you that are going to Disney during someone's birthday....If you already have your ticket, because it is only a one day ticket, then you can get a birthday funcard which is a giftcard with a value of a one day ticket that can be used in select shops at Disney. I am going to be in Disney this Spring on my son's birthday and he will get the card with the value of a child's ticket and (if he were an adult he would get the value of an adult ticket). Works great for me since I am giving my children their spending money in giftcard form. I do know there are restrictions where it can be used, but if you already have your tickets, it is a great deal! Hope this helps someone.

We just booked a 6 bd, 4bth, w/pool villa for $1230 for 5 days in May. That included tax, cleaning, and pool heat. It has 2 rooms that are Disney themed for the kids. It's at windsorhills.com. I just emailed the owners and asked for a special. Some gave me no discount and others did. The resort is 2 miles from Disney and they have shuttles that go to the parks.

We also found allegiantair.com and they have $19 1 way tix out of specific airports. It's non stop directly into Sanford Airport. After all the fees,it ended up being $2?? for 2 people. It saved me 50% and it's a direct flight.

We plan on eating at the house for breakfast and splitting lunch at the park. I'm looking into finding some coupons for dinner off site.

On the free dining:
1.) Get ADRs (reservations). For everything. During Free dining, you must have them, in that everyone else will and if you don't you'll find you have to eat all your meals at the fast food type places, because the sit down places are booked solid. I saw way too many sad families get turned away.

2.) Hit the disney junkie boards pp to see how to make the most of your credits. allearsnet has menus. In terms of credits, dinner is dinner. Why eat spaghetti if you can have filet?

I haven't kept up on them in years, so the rules may have changed, but you used to be able to use them for Character meals. This way you get your pics & autographs without standing in line. If you can, arrange a Character Breakfast timed so you get out when the park opens. Then you don't miss any ride time.

The free dining promo is for August 16th - October 3rd. Right now, it is only for Disney Visa card holders, but usually within a week it opens up to the general public. I am a travel agent and can give you more info if you need it, just PM me.
