Sure, the amusements are one-of-a-kind, the theming is out of this world and interaction with the characters is the stuff of a child’s dream. But if you ask my husband, the best part of Disney is the dining, and he had his priority seating choices made long before his 90 day window.

So what’s better than Disney dining? Well, how about Disney dining…for free? Yep, that’s the offer on the table (pun intended). If you book a full price WDW vacation checking in between August 16 and October 3 (with some restrictions), you can upgrade to the Magic
Your Way Plus Dining plan for the same price as the plain old Magic Your Way package.

Bottom line: this deal will save the average family of four (who are those people?) $101.96 per day. That’s a lot of souvenir money, doncha know?

The small print: your vacation package must include a three day hotel stay and a one day (at least) theme park ticket. And you must book before 6/21/09, using the appropriate code: RYH. If you want to upgrade to the Deluxe Dining Plan (which gives you three sitdown or counter service meals a day, two snacks, an appetizer with table service meals and a refillable mug) you can do so for $32 per adult per night and $10 per night for the kiddies. Use code UGR.

So what’s the hold up? Go book your Disney trip with free dining now…and start counting the days until you have to dial to book your space at LeCellier.

Spring Break At Disney

Forget Daytona – the real happening place for spring break this year is Orlando and Walt Disney World! And, if you book through February 28 (a mere five days left!) you can get a break on your budget too. You can stay at select Disney Resorts (read: the value hotels) for as little as $74 a night for Sunday through Thursday stays in March. And that rock bottom rate will get you the same high quality magic you can find at the bigger resorts – for a lot more money.

Let’s face it, if you’re at the Disney parks, you’re not going to be spending a lot of time in your room anyway. Save money by booking one of these deals – then treat yourself to a great dinner at Le Cellier!

Borrow From Your Disney Resort

If you’ll need a wheelchair for your Disney visit, save yourself the cost of transport – or the cost and time to rent one in the park. Instead, borrow one from your resort! Make a request at your Disney World resort’s front desk, and you can borrow one for the length of your stay. Or, better yet, ask ahead and they can have it waiting for you in your room.

Other items you can borrow include iron and ironing board (to get out the wrinkles when you over-pack your one carry-on), high chairs and cribs, bed rails, sharps disposable containers and hair dryers. It never hurts to ask – and it could just save you bucks!
