Is this true? Does it now include the photo package?

Thanks!

They had the photo package when we were there last September for lunch.

Yes, as of April 27, 2008, the photo package is now included in the price of the meal. The prices did go up some to accomodate the photo package.

Yes, and the photo package is very nice! We were not on DDP during our May trip, so we paid the higher cash price and still thought it was great.

And with the inclusion of the photo package (which is news to me - thank you!), is the meal still one credit on the DDP? If so, that has to be the best deal on property! Please tell me it is!

I just booked it for breakfast the other day for Septmber and yes it was just one credit but you do have to give a credit card. I didnt know there was a photo package either and they didnt tell me that when I booked but said the card would not be charged unless we cancel within 24 hours.

Also, if you are utilizing the Photo Pass services, you can have these Princess photos added to you Photo Pass card. You will be given a receipt with a bar code and you can go to a Photo Pass location to have those added. (When we were there in early June, we forgot to do this!!)

We usually eat here once every trip (for the princesses, not the food). DH is a sucker for the photo pkg- it they ask him, he will buy :rolleyes: . We always buy the photopass cd, so having all the pics is awesome! We are on DXDDP, and DD5 loves the characters (and we love food), so this is an obvious choice for us this year. We have been eating a lot of AS food court breakfasts in trips past (using our DP credits for dinners), so the character breakfasts this year will be a real treat. I fear they will change this to a 2 credit TS meal next year, like CRT, so hopefully we will get our fill of it this year. I don't see us spending 2 credits on it in the future if we are on the reg plan.

I totally forgot that they added the photo package! :idea: That is very exciting! We'll be there in September too, and now I'm thrilled that we get a photo! How fun!:yay:

I wouldn't be surprised if this changes to a 2 credit TS either. We always make our way over here each trip and just love it.:love:

I just made an ADR for this... It's a pretty late dinner (7:55) with a 16 month old (we'll feed her earlier) but I don't know if she'll last until then... They said I have 48 hours before to cancel without being charged... But I hope I decide to keep it as I would love the pics! And to see illuminations!

We are eating at Akershus in early Aug. on the dining plan. Is the photo included with the dining plan or is it an extra charge?

Does anyone know what price you should base your tip on? I know I am not going to tip on the price that includes the photo package!
