The Best Free Dining Deal Yet!

Book early and SAVE on your next Walt Disney World® Resort vacation!

Usually this deal comes out for only certain select weeks in September, and if we are lucky, overlapping slightly with the end of August and very beginning of October. But this time, not only can we book it a year in advance, but it is available almost all of 2011! Now those going during the summertime and fall break when the kids are out of school can get free dining too! I have been going to free dining since it premiered in 2004 and Disney has NEVER done this before! Those that want to give Disney World a try, now is the time!

But hurry, it can only be booked until the end of this year -- by December 20, 2010.
