A few weeks ago, I blogged about how to save on a Disney Cruise if you book another one while on the ship. Well guess what? There’s a similar scenario at Disney World which is called a Bounceback offer!
These can only be booked while you are actually on vacation. In the past, I haven’t mentioned it to clients because I honestly thought it felt a little like I was pressuring them to book another trip before they had even gone on the first one. But when I heard that the current Bounceback offer includes free dining, I realized I needed to get the word out.
The Bounceback offers are not always free dining - often they are room discounts. But if you know that you will most likely be making a trip in the near future, it would be silly to not guarantee this discount. We all know that Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will be bringing in large crowds and if Disney doesn’t feel the need to discount rooms to fill them, they won’t. And even if discounts are released, they will have limited availability and you might miss out.
The easiest way to book it is to let me know that you might be interested in it before you go. But even if you didn’t think about it until you are there, just give me a shout! The rules are simple - if you are staying ON site at a Disney resort, you can call me or you can call x8844 from your room and book the current Bounceback offer. It will require a $200 deposit which, of course, is fully refundable up to 30 days prior to travel. Simple as that!!
Most of the rooms have a brochure left in them by Mousekeeping that explains the current offer. Sometimes they get overlooked and sometimes Mousekeeping may fail to leave one. But either way, if you are a current guest, there is some sort of offer. The craziest part? You can book up to 3 rooms! Want to take 3 upcoming trips? Go wild and book them. There’s zero risk as long as you either take the trip (why wouldn’t you??) or cancel before the 30 days (WHY WOULD YOU??).
One more little rule - the lead guest on the Bounceback reservation must be one of the adult guests on the current reservation. So no sharing this great deal with your buddies.
I don’t have a picture of the current Bounceback - YET! I’ll grab one when I’m there in 14 days!! (Not that I’m counting…) Here are the details though:
Guests must check-in during the following date ranges to be eligible for the 2020 Free Dining Bounceback offer to be valid:

Excluded resorts and room categories are Disney’s All Star Movies, Disney’s Port Orleans French Quarter, Bay Lake Tower at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, the Villas at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, Campsites at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, Little Mermaid Rooms at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, and all 3-Bedroom Villas.

So if you’re about to head to the world, think about future trips. You could save a bundle if you plan it right! Of course, call me to have me plan and book your Disney trips with no extra cost to you.
