New Monorail Resort Dining Experience Announced

[Captain Neo]

Are they going to do a major cleaning/refurbishment of the cabins? because otherwise uhhhhh

Last time I was in the WDW monorails (This past August) they smelled and looked worse than they did on my last trip(2009)

I don't think $150 is "catering to the rich"

Everyone has an opinion and that was mine.

Everyone has an opinion and that was mine.

Based on the amount of food and drinks available, I'm shocked that the price is reasonable. And I'm about as cheap as they come.

Someone posted a review on Disney foodies on facebook. Its not unlimited drinks or apps.

Heard the monorail broke down on the first evening?

No it's not, but $300 per couple is a pretty expensive dinner for most upper middle class patrons. I think this dinner would be as attractive to the rich as tent city.

Is this true? If so, it's parr for the course with Disney.

The woman who wrote the review didnt mention that at all.

Don't let an unconfirmed report stop you from criticizing, though.

My wife was visiting the monorail hotels yesterday (monorail bar hopping) and said that the monorail broke down last evening. So consider the report confirmed.

Well, now it's confirmed. So I'm right. Neener neener!

I didn't notice "resort" and I thought it was a monorail dining experience! That would be awesome!

You get an exclusive car, and the resorts will install drive-through windows.

It's called "The Future Fast Food Dining Experience".

reviews I read indicate the last round, desserts and cordials with the Wishes viewing is unlimited drinks, desserts and coffee. Also it was indicated that multiple glasses of champagne were offered with the cheese course. But yes all others were single pours/servings but all full size.

Review I read on DIS said it didn't but they had a boat on standby just in case.

I'm pretty sure that this will be a sort of "introductory pricing" and that it will soon be ramped up, now that they know it's a winner. How much was the MK Dessert Party originally versus now?

I tried to get this and it was sold out, my wife and I are going to "self" create the experience. We have reservations at the Grand Floridian Cafe on 12/26. We'll start at the Poly and Tambu Lounge for drinks and an app. Head over to Grand Floridian, and then end back at the Contemporary (where we're staying) and Top of the World Lounge for drinks and fireworks. We'll receipt compare after and see if we stay under the $300.

Wow must suck to be poor huh? Only peasants actually put in some effort to tailor their vacation to their own personal needs, without being on someone else time schedule. That sounds awful to me, putting in some actual thought into a vacation... yuck.

That was the morning. It was fixed by the time of the resort crawl. So, disparaging the aging, oft-broke, death trap was totally out of place.

Thanks for the clarification. Are you planning to ride it on your upcoming trip?

 

[LongLiveTheKing]

This looks absolutely insane in a good way. It's a very smart move by Disney and this is something I'd be interested in once in my life, especially at that price point. Guests boarding the monorail will even be seeing people constantly going to the VIP section so it's self advertising.

"priority boarding on the monorail"

Good god. When are we going to have to insert a coin to use the bathrooms?

This is what I'm worried about. Disney still hasn't done any pay front of the line pass type deal and this is potentially a step in that direction.
