I apologize for duplicating this question. I know I've seen the answer somewhere but it's not coming up in any of my searches....

If we check in on the last day of a free dining window, would we get the deal for the entire length of stay or would it only be good for that first day?

Thanks for answering yet again!

If your check in date is included in the promotion dates, you would receive free dining for your entire stay.

If your first day is the last day of the dining offer, you can get it, up to 10 ( or is it 14) days.

Really??? I was told I would need two separate ressies. 1 for the period before free dining began the other ressie for when free dining began.

It sounds like you are checking in before free dining begins. In that case, you would need 2 separate reservations, just as you described. In the OP's case, if she is checking in on a date that is included in the promotion (even though her stay extends beyond the dates), she would receive the promo for her entire stay.

We can't even get free dining having an AP. That was a disappointment!

You can get Free Dining with an AP, but you'd have to purchase at least a 2-day ticket for everyone on the reservation.

If the savings are great enough, it's worth purchasing the tickets and holding onto them for your next trip or for renewing your APs next year.

The two-day requirement was in place last year as well.
