Not all room categories count for the 35%. I had a standard room booked at the regular release, but called back and it didn’t qualify under the visa discount. I upgraded to a pool view with the Disney discount for just about the same price as the regular discount.Our's is at AKL and we saved $1500 with Disney Visa discount.
Pop was already booked solid for about the 7th-11th even before the discounts came out, so there was no inventory available to set aside for them. I've got a reservation there starting on the 5th, and toyed around with the possibility of a split stay to get some sort of use out of the discounts. I could have gotten the room discount on the first two nights and moved to CBR with the Visa discount for the remainder for not too much more, but I wasn't quick enough on actually pulling the trigger. So I'm just going to keep my eye out for availability changes, and I suggest you do, too.Has anyone been able to apply any discounts to a Pop Century stay starting on February 3rd? We fell within the parameters and prebooked our February vacation weeks ago in anticipation for PSD, but now it's not available for those days, and we don't want to change. I've called, etc. The cast member I spoke with said that it may be a glitch because no value resorts came up for February 3rd start days, but they came up for the 2nd. I wound up switching, for now, to CSR because it wound up being the same as the rack room for the Pop room + dining. But I would prefer to stay at Pop. Pretty disappointed that all the other days seem fine, but for whatever reason (no events or anything) our stay didn't fit into ANY of the discounts (PSD or otherwise).

Was able to grab the room only discount for our Feb trip, super pleased. Now I can't decide if I should go ahead and buy tickets to lock in the rates or wait until mid October and roll the dice with the new pricing system? What are you all doing? Tickets now?
Any idea when the AP Room Discounts will be announced ?? They are usually a bit better than the Visa discounts and can save a lot.
