So if we had a room booked now and FD comes out and happens to overlap with our stay, what do we need to do to upgrade to the FD offer? Will a simple phone call to reservations suffice? Is there an extra charge or will the booking need to be tweaked. Will any initial reservation work or should we book something unique, like club level or a premier view? Can a simple standard room at Poly booked now, for instance, be eligible for a FD upgrade should the FD offer overlap?
When/if FD becomes available, only Disney knows how many rooms and what kind of rooms. The announcement will include dates and resorts where it MAY be available. Just because you have a room at one of those resorts and on the correct dates does not guarantee you will get FD. They may only allow water view rooms there. They may only have garden view. Or they may have standard or some other category, but you won't know if what you have or want is available until you either check online or call. Online usually opens before 7 a.m. which is the earliest you can call. If you have a room booked, and your check-in date is within the FD dates, you can try to modify/change it online. If that doesn't work, you could book a completely new reservation with FD and cancel the other one. Or you could wait and call in at 7 a.m. along with about a million other people.
