2016 Dining Plan Question

[Gurt]

Hi Everyone,

Sorry if this ask been asked before I had a search but couldn't find it, also sorry if this is something that is common knowledge around all you experts.

We are booked for next September and whilst it is way to early for my ADR's there is no harm in checking out places to eat this early, we have the dining plan as part of our package so I just had a look at which restaurants are included for table service, on the 2015 plan there are a lot of places however I have just seen the 2016 list and the are hardly any, 3-4 per park and nothing for AK, or Disney Springs, is this correct or do they add more as 2016 approaches?

Thanks in advance for your advice.

This question comes up every year without fail.

Disney posts the DDP brochure early and then amends it as negotiations finalize for each restaurant. The brochure starts out with only the Disney owned and operated restaurants and adds the various 3rd party vendor restaurants when they've reached an agreement. Some won't show up in the brochure until very late December.

Generally, you can expect few, if any, changes from this year's listings. Plan based on this year's brochure and watch to see if they're still there on next year's list as you get closer to your trip. Since you won't be able to book until after the list is finalized, you should be fine.

I knew it would have been asked before but I couldn't for the life of my find the answer on here, I must have been searching wrong.

Thank you very much for answering, I once again look forward to trying new foods in Epcot.
