Good Morning Everyone...Well that's my Spanish vacation over..Ola'...Now it's time to get my 2015 plans into action...Decisions..Decisions..Should I try and pull out my resources and go for AKL or stick to my beloved PORS.?...Now the thing is,for 2014, there is free dining available..If I pick AKL,then it's 14 ADRS.If I opt for PORS, then it's CS meals with a couple of ADRS for TS meals.Iam sure free dining will be available for 2015..My 6th trip will be in October as all my past ones were in July..Here's my dilemma..If I decide to opt for AKL then 14 ADRS will be required..If it's back to PORS then maybe 2 TS ADRS will be suffice..Now as much as I love going out for fine dining ( we done 8 meals at a Spanish swishy restaurant and all 3 courses were awesome,hence why I've put on half a stone ) I'am wondering what your feelings are on this.?In the past we have always enjoyed CS meals with a few TS meals flung in..(If I was looking for a fine dining vacation,it wouldn't be WDW)..The difference in cost for 14 days between AKL and PORS is approx $1500..I also understand that 14 ADRS will require 14 tips ( approx $400 ) :eek:..who says us Scots are tight fisted.:happy:..Anyway..What are your views on this..If you were going on a 14 day Disney vacation..How important is your food situation.?.What are your views on this.?..

Love a little Disney every day!! ;)
Morning Hatter!, We have been all over and personally think WDW is a great place to enjoy some delicious food at many of the TS restaurants. There is some really great TS meals but you have to pick the right places. We have our faves we have to do every trip and look forward to them. Also it's nice to be waited on and get a nice break from walking and the parks craziness for about an hour or hour and a half each day. :)
We always do the regular dining plan. You don't have to have 14 reservations. You can do more
Signature places or dinner shows etc that take 2 credits each. So if you did 7 of those that uses up all of your TS credits and you only have to eat at a TS half of the trip. Also you get your QS credits for each day as well so you will have 14 QS to use and 14 snacks to use with the regular dining plan. We enjoy QS places and TS places so the regular plan is a must for us. Dining is one of the main parts we enjoy of our trip. But everyone is different. Also you may get tired if eating all those QS meals if you opt for the QS plan.
Oh by the way unless something has changed or it's different for UK folks if you stay at POR which is a moderate you still get the regular dining plan free. Only value resorts have to get the QS for free. Mods and Deluxe resorts get the regular plan which is the 1TS,1QS, and 1 snack per day. :)
Again it's all personal preference with anything with rooms, dining, etc and what's important to you. We like the regular plan so much we pay OOP for it and never took free dining due to the US room discounts available. We just like it being pre payed for. And enjoy the variety the regular dining plan gives us. Just figure out what's most important to you both. :)

If you are pretty certain this will be your last trip to WDW, then I say go for AKL and the TS meals! Enjoy the restaurants that you may have wanted to try in the past and see all that these places have to offer. Each day you will have that 1-2 hours to just sit and relax and experience something new in WDW. We always enjoy that TS meal each day. Its gives us a chance to relax. Whatever you choose hatter, I hope this trip, if it does turn out to be your last to WDW, is your best!

Ah I LOVE the AKL. So of course it would always win for me no matter what the dinning situation. Right at AKL you have the wonderful Boma and Sanaa. Yum! It does seem like a lot of eating but who cares. Eat away! You will walk in off at the parks :)

It looks like AKL at the moment,over PORS..Prices for 14 nights at PORS with tickets are only $100 cheaper than a package at AKL..
