    2009 Dining Plan Change

    NO ADR's Option! They should call this the NO ADR option, because if you did not make ADR's before you got to WDW and you purchased the DDP, this is the only option you are left with. How many people have purchased the DDP only to find they could not get into hardly any TS restaurants...

    buffet question about tipping

    Guest Relations Hello, All this talk about an automatic 18% on parties of 6 or more has really got me torked, so i called guest relations. I explained that we had 6 people dining each night and expressed that i intend to tip based on the quality of service rather than being forced to give a...

    buffet question about tipping

    Automatic 18% Hello, this is my big question: If you have 6 people dining at a table, and they will automatically add 18% to your bill, how can anyone be forced to pay 18% gratuity? We will have 6 people dining each night in sept. from 2 separate rooms (2 parties of 3 sitting together) Will...

    buffet question about tipping

    Gratutity RANT! You are right, Disney Fan, It is the servers' very own union who negotiated the contract which led to the removal of the GUARANTEED 18% grat from the dining plan. The DDP 18% grat which was included was taxed as a bonus at a much higher rate plus the servers only received...

    Paperboy face Maybe as irony some loyalist imigineers constructed the face of Eisner to be displayed on the bane paperboy to be scoffed at as we lament the forgotten and discarded attractions of our beloved EPCOT CENTER. Can someone photoshop that? That would be awesome, Eisner's face on the...

    under 100 days to go....!!! Anyone else?

    98 days to FREE dining again! Hello all, We are 98 days away from our 10 day trip to the world. One little hiccup in our plans is that instead of leaving on Sept. 21, we had to stay an extra day and leave on the 22nd. This was due our flight changes, it actually ended up paying us to stay an...

    Rumor!!!

    re-face the theater I say re-face and re-rurb the theater and turn the hat into a permanent show-focused stage, just like the front of the castle. It's not a bad icon, DHS is a more casual and whimsical park, so the hat works there, unlike the wand on our sacred SSE. MikeB

    DDP FREE Dining Hello, the bounce back free DDP was offered in Sept. 2007 for Sept. 2008. We were there from the 13-22nd and had to call a special extension and book it from our room during our stay.

    People Angry Over Disney Dinning Plan

    DDP: Great Deal For Me!!! Hello folks, I agree, why does Disney feel the need to take something great and make it less-great, especially with dining, i mean, let's face it they kinda have a monopoly on dining if you're at the parks, where else are you gonna eat. It's not really feasible to...
