As promised, I am reporting back on our experience with this BB offer. We arrived Tuesday and booked our FD BB offer for next year. We booked for 7 nights at PORS (wanted FQ, but as usual, it is not included anymore; I did ask, just to confirm). We will also add on 4 nights room only at a deluxe, but will do that at a later date. No pamphlet / folder in my room. I was told I should have received an email regarding the BB offer in
MDE since I was already checked in, but there was no email. I only knew about the offer from following the DIS.
When I called to book, I was told garden view or preferred area for the PORS offer. This year we had to book a riverview to get the FD (ended up with riverview, preferred building 14, ground floor- exactly as requested!). We decided to book preferred to be guaranteed a spot near the lobby and food court- we use our mugs a lot and like to have a short walk to food court. So, we booked preferred for next year and upgraded to the regular dining plan and got 8 day park hoppers - we will use them for the room only days after our PORS stay.
Really happy to have this done! It was about $23 more per day per person (we're all adults) to upgrade to regular dining. I did ask about Wilderness Lodge, since it's one of the cheaper deluxe and it would have included the regular dining plan and it was about $500-600 more per 8 night stay- I would have done it but my kids were telling me to keep PORS- they love going to Disney Springs, so we like the location we're in now.
Good luck to everyone with getting the bounce back!
