I like that. Everything helps.
One thing I’ve been confused with is this.. do you have to eat at the resort you park at to get the TIW free valet. Let’s say you Valet at the Poly… have a drink at the Tambu Lounge, your guest buys so you don’t pay there..(granted, Tambu Lounge takes TIW but for discussion…) you hop on the monorail, go to the Grand and dine at Citrico’s where you buy dinner with the TIW. If you take that TIW receipt from Citrico’s back to the Poly, is your valet there free??

Frank — I would say that you need to go to park at the resort where you are dining. So in your scenario, park at the Grand Floridian, take the monorail to Tambu for your drinks, and then return to Citrico’s for dinner before retrieving your vehicle. The rules for valet seem to indicate that the valet service must be for the participating restaurant in which you dine. You could always ask at Bell Services just to be safe.
You do not have to eat where you valet. We parked at Beach Club, walked to The Studios, ate ate there, and had dessert at the Swan. As long as you have the receipt of a place that accepts the card, it does not matter where you eat.
Jason — Thanks for sharing and clarifying. I hadn’t had the issue to come up before, so it’s great to hear from someone who has!
