Anyone hear about what disney is considering??? Not sure how this would work, but they are planning on not having admission to the world showcase, so anyone could come in and eat. I read this is some food review by scott joseph in a local paper...

That would be awful (in my opinion). It would make the area so crowded and take away the magic.
If they do this how will they handle the night entertainment and other attractions in the World Showcase (other than restaurants). There are rides that I am sure Disney doesn't want people going on free.
I have a feeling that this won't happen. It wouldn't make sense for them too. There are plenty of restaurants for people to go to. The few extra World Showcase would provided wouldn't make it worth it for Disney to do.

Why not have a Reduced entree after like 7 or 8. Then it would still have the magic, Just an idea.

But they can't stop people from watching a parade or fireworks display when they are outside.
The whole idea wouldn't work.

Well, would they still give resort guests priority seating? One of our favorite things to do is eat in World Showcase....hop over from MGM, or AK etc..for dinner. I am sure we aren't the only ones...would they allow this during peak times or only off season? Also if I am paying full price..ok even w/DC Discount its still full enough for me ...I want a fair shot at getting good viewing areas. Just dont see it being a very fair to resort guests or those staying off site and paying full price.

Can't work, Won't work
As previously stated - you cannot justify keeping EPCOT tickets at full price.
World showcase would be too crowded, there would have to be safety / fire evacuation issues.
And,
You would need admission / exit points at World Showcase to stop the freeloaders entering EPCOT without paying.
Exactly where did the rumour originate ??

WHAT?!?! They would never do anything like that! :dazzle:
It's called a shopping pass. You can only do it before 4PM on weekdays.
There's another thread on this topic (don't remember what it's called) that has the text of the original story. The story mentioned the POSSIBILITY of opening up the restaurants at night (though not for free from what I recall). The whole article was suspect if you ask me, and even the article made this suggestion sound like a very small chance. I wouldn't worry much about this.

I hope this Rumor is false. However if it is not then MKTiggerman has a solution that would work
People pay the $50.88 at the gate to get in, have their pass time stamped, go eat, have the restaurant receipt stamped, leave within the two hour period and get their $50.88 back.
If they decide to cheat and watch RoE or ride some rides that's fine since they will be paying full price to do that.
MK don't they use the pay/refund system already for something else there?
December 29th, where are you?

Do you think they would make it where you would have to show them you're standard ticket (regualar $50.88 pass) to get into a ride? So that way people who did the restraunt thing couldn't sneak and ride. That would be a big hassle.
