My friends and family love it. I've gone with my parents and my brother and his wife, and I've gone with my (all over 30) friends. I won't book a Disney vacation without it. For me, it's about the convenience of having everything paid for up front, and it gives the penny pincher in me the opportunity to try new restaurants I most likely wouldn't pay for out of pocket without grimacing- much less pay for a soda/hot tea and *gasp* dessert. On the trip I took with my friends, we took two days off of Disney and went to Universal. We used those two table service credits to go to a couple of signature places- breakfast at Cinderella's Castle and dinner at Jiko. They were both outstanding experiences and we were all really glad we had the extra credits. I'm going in December with my mom, and we lucked into free dining, but we already knew we were going to get the plan, regardless if we could make free dining work or not. It just isn't a thing we go without any more. As a result, we are trying all new restaurants when we go (with the exception of my favorite breakfast on site- 1900 Park Fare.) I know there are a lot of nay-sayers, but it really gives me the peace of mind to not freak out over a mediocre $20 cheeseburger meal and a $50 dinner in one day.
