Long time reader of the forum, first time poster. I've been going to WDW ever since I was 5 years old (living in Florida, that's just what you do when you are bored).
But for the first time, my sister and I decided we were going to do Disney the right way: You know staying at on-site, staying at the parks 'til closing, witness the nighttime events. (You'd be surprise how many times we just didn't care to do any of these things because we always justified it as "Well, Disney is only 3 hours away, so we can always come back and see it another time.") We are both professional 20-somethings without children (much to my parents' dismay) but since we have such fond childhood memories of the place, we always go at least once a year.
In keeping with our "doing it the right way" theme this trip, we decide to do the Fantasmic! Dinner Package because it seems fun enough and a way to guarantee a seat. But since we're going during the first week of February, when the low season is in full swing, we are worried we are not going to need it. Only reason we've kept the reservation is because it's the ONLY scheduled show that week, so we think it might be crowded just because of that. Reading some reviews here and elsewhere, we weren't exactly sold on the payoff.
Just wanted to know what your experiences are with it? We aren't super enthusiastic about any of the dining choices given to us, so we reluctantly opted for the Brown Derby. Any info, opinion, tips are welcome.
