Highway in the Sky Dine-Around

[crazy4wdw]

Walt Disney World has just announced a new five course dining package that includes different food items at the Contemporary, Poly, and Grand Flo on the same night. Cost is $150 per person. Reservations are already available online.

The Highway in the Sky Dine Around is offered select Tuesday, Friday and Saturday evenings.

All aboard the Walt Disney World Resort Monorail for a culinary journey where each destination offers a distinctively delicious experience.

Join us for a progressive dinner unlike any other—with sumptuous offerings at 3 Disney Resort hotels.

Your Dine Around adventure begins at Disney's Contemporary Resort, where you’ll check in at The Wave… of American Flavors restaurant. Relax and mingle with your fellow diners, enjoying a welcoming appetizer and specialty cocktail before setting off on your epicurean odyssey. Bon voyage and bon appétit!

First stop: Disney's Polynesian Village Resort—where you’ll feel as if you’ve arrived in a far-flung tropical paradise. Celebrate the spirit of the South Pacific and luxuriate in the charm of this exotic retreat, with an enticing variety of island-inspired libations and appetizers.

Then it’s time for a change of scene and cuisine—as the monorail transports you a world away: to the opulent Victorian-style Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Step inside and step back into a bygone era of elegance and gracious hospitality. You’ll be escorted to the award-winning Cítricos restaurant where we invite you to settle in amid the refined ambience as you’re treated to a special Chef’s main course selection. Afterward, gather in the splendidly appointed lobby to sip champagne and savor a selection of artisanal cheeses.

Board the monorail once more to return to Disney's Contemporary Resort for the culmination of your evening. Here, you and your Dine Around companions will retire to a private patio to enjoy an indulgent assortment of desserts, cordials and coffee. From this exclusive location, watch in wonder as the Wishes nighttime spectacular fireworks light up the night over Cinderella Castle—a musical, magical grand finale to your one-of-a-kind dining adventure.

That's something DH and I would do on a kid-free trip. Right up our alley. Sounds fun!

Can you post a review when you're done? I booked this for my wife for Valentine's day next year and I'd love to hear how it went! If it's not worth the money, then we'll do something else. Unfortunately, I had to cancel our California Grill reservation since it was in the middle of the time block for this event so hopefully it goes well and I didn't mess up!

 

[Super 27]

Definitely will post a review!

Definitely will post a review!

Looking forward to it! I reserved this for our January trip & am questioning if it's really worth it. I'm also eager to hear how many people are in the group...I assume it's relatively small.

I would be interested to know how many people this is limited to as well. If anyone calls to reserve, will you please ask?

Sounds interesting but we won't be there at that time.

Yes, please post a review and any photos if you take them.

If this dining package is still being offered during my next trip in October 2017, I just might reserve it.

I would love to do this with my hubby on our kid free October '17 trip!

I just booked for our March trip! I'd like to hear reviews and the number of people it's limited to as well. TYIA

My main concern is how Disney is gonna split up the royalties to pay every Disney fan to ever have this idea ever.

 

[adisneyaunt]

I love this idea. Can't wait to hear the reviews and details.
How many hours is this entire experience? Limited chosen entree's? How many people in each group?
Not sure how much hubby would like all the "togetherness" with other groups/singles/couples. But for a 1 evening experience, sounds great
( ever have That couple as ur cruise mates for dining.. night after nite lol)

I just booked this for Feb 28th. IMO, its an amazing value for what you are getting. We have spent close to this on signature meals at Disney before when you factor in before, during, and after dinner drinks. It also sounds like a really nice experience. Cannot wait to read reviews!!

In regards to the hours, the start time is based on the time that is set for Wishes to launch. So, on Feb. 14th when I reserved it, Wishes launches at 8:00PM so our reservation starts at 4:45PM. So, it starts three hours and 15 minutes before Wishes. For example, that Friday, it is at 5:45 and I think the first one this weekend starts at 6:45. It seems to be one group, and not multiple groups as there is only one time available per day. The whole experience is probably close to 3 1/2 hours when you include the time to show Wishes.

I'll be following this thread for the reviews. Sounds Wonderful on many levels!!!

I'd love to see a review for sure. On the surface it doesn't seem worth it to me without knowing what the menu/offerings are. Everything in the package can be done without the package and the restrictions that come with it. I'm a big fan of monorail hopping and ending our evening at Cali Grill for Wishes I'm just not sure what this package offers that I can't get on my own (that would justify a limited menu, limited time at each resort, etc.)

Let's say you only eat and drink what's offered in the package and don't buy anything additional...you're looking at $300 which may not seem that bad but it's too hard to tell without knowing what's included.

Knowing I can do CG for $200 and V&A for $500 (for two people), I'm not sure I can justify $300 on this package quite yet. I hope the menu blows me away.
