Agree.

Although even when this was in place, I was still able to order at a register, just told the CMs at the door, that I was paying cash.
There were times Cast Members would be much stricter and argumentative about people wanting to order at a register. But also, the abandonment of mobile order only should be a bit telling that it didn’t create any sort of great efficiency.

And its a turn off that you have to go through red tape first by telling a cast member you want to come in and order and eat, you shouldn't have to do that, never use to had to. They have stationed too many wall blocks and permission points everywhere that it has zapped the fun out of it. Had to go through at least 3 or 4 cast asking permission the other night just to buy a bottle water off to the side after the parade when leaving main street, they wanted no one veering out of their exit line.

Where are you eating that this is happening?

What does keeping the option tell you?There was no mandate until the pandemic.

I can’t believe people favor a system where you wait in line for 30 minutes and then can’t find a table because the 10 families behind you are taking up the tables waiting for food.

I guess Disney should have a table for 10 open for us at every QS restaurant in MK since “capacity.”

Again, you are jumping at the idea that people hate mobile ordering for saying it doesn't add capacity. They are not the same. I can sit here and say it works well for some people and not for others, and it's fine as an option.

BUT, funny enough, you are getting to the idea most are saying. There should not be 30 minute waits for QS, there should be enough places around the park with enough people working that this is never the case. There are not enough QS (or food places in general) for a park the size of MK.

If mobile order offered the claimed capacity gains then they would and should have kept mobile order only.
As can be seen from the posts above there are situations that call for - or people who prefer - ordering at a register. Disney is accommodating them.

If mobile ordering did not offer any advantage to either Disney or the guests, then they would and should have kept ordering at registers only.

I don’t know. If you visit other threads posters are saying Disney is lying about attendance and the place is a ghost town. Why would they add dining capacity at this point?

Because guest spending and attendance are not mutually exclusive.
You want people there spending more. So you make it so you make more avalible to ones there rather than harder to get.

There is less care than how long it takes you to get what you paid for, than offering and making it easier to habe you commit to buying it.

But if there are so few guests shouldn’t they fit comfortably within the current capacity?

Their willingness to buy is not the same as fitting. Commitment of sale is not dependent on just physical space. Not mutually exclusive.
Mobile ordering purchased gets another way to make the sale for those not physically there and those who like to order via that medium.

I personally dont like it most times and if it is treated as required it is definitely a fail. But it is easily explained with marketing and consumerism separate from attendance.
