Yes, but you will still need to give a CC to guarantee the reservation and there is a cancellation/no show penalty inside of 48 hours.

We've got ours booked too. Saves a bit of frustration waiting with bazillion guests wanting to rush into the stadium. And easier time emptying out. The first time we booked Fantasmic dining , at first I wasnt thrilled with the seating, I thought reserved seating would be center view... but the view works out fine.
Thing I dont like ... and it's happened several times before... Just before the show starts, guests who didnt do the Fantasmic dining grab priority seats and the CM's don't make them move. I pointed several cases to the CM who said.. We cant do anything about it. Hey, I paid extra for the privilege, why are they allowed to grab those seats and get away with it? There should be a better way of blocking off the area and ensuring that paying guests only take advantage of the seats.

and make sure when you show up to eat to mention that you are on the Fantasmic Priority Seating plan so they (your waiter or waitress who is not informed about that sort of thing before you arrive) will get the voucher you need to access the priority seating entrance.

Thanks for all the tips, everyone.
I have done the Fantasmic Dining Package before.
Just never done it with the Dining Plan.

I had the exact same thing happen when my husband and I had done the Fantasmic dining package. A very rude woman came barging in with her kids literally as the show was starting, and began to shout at me because I wouldn't move from where I was sitting to accommodate her. She made the entire show very uncomfortable for me and once it was over, carried on being abusive towards me until I was virtually at the point of tears.

I have absolutely no desire to ever see Fantasmic again, because it just brings back such horrible memories. However, the meal we had at Mama Melrose's as part of the package was very nice, so I guess it wasn't all bad ;)
