I have been reading a lot of stuff about issues with waiting for your preferred seating and issues with service over the last few weeks. I personally have never been down during free dining, but I am sure that a lot of people go down during that time because of the special. I have done the dining package for the last 4 years and have paid for it and I think it is a great deal. I think it would be even a better deal if I got it for free, but I go right after xmas for new years and it is not available. One of the issues I have with the complaints about free dining is that many of you that have used the free dining and are having problems may not realize those of us who pay for the dining realize if we get good service we give a extra tip above and beyond what is included in the dining package. Being a former cast member I would assume that the people who are taking advantage of the free dining are very concerned about their budget and the servers know this as well and don't expect to get an extra tip and that is why you are not getting the best service. Another point I want to point out is that you obviously notice that they are over booking some of the restaurants which is not typical, so the servers are being asked to do more work than they would be normally asked to do.
I am not saying that this is an excuse and everyone should be getting good service I just wanted to point out some things that people who are using the free dining may not know.
I am sure this thread will be torn apart, but I just wanted to voice my opinion.
