2009 Quick Service Dining Plan

[bubba]

Has anyone seen this ? I just went online to help a friend book for May 2009 and I found a new Dining Plan Option. This is called Quick Service and includes 2 Counter Service meals per day, 2 snacks per day and a refillable mug. The cost is $29.99 per day per adult and $8.99 per day per child. What do you think ?

Yes I have. And im terrified that if free dining is ever offered again this is what we'll get

There are quite a few threads in this forum about this new plan. You should be able to find them all on the first few pages as they are a hot topic right now.

There was just an announcement in another thread that the UK is now offering 2009 free dining and it is the CS plan....

so brace yourself, I can't imagine it will be any different here.

I don't think it's a very good deal because it is only $8.00 less than
the reg. Dining Plan that includes 1 TS per Night. I'd rather
have the TS and pay the extra $8.00 dollars.
I think eating CS for a whole trip would get old real quick.
I read on anohter post that in UK is already being offered
a CS Dining plan for FD next year and that looks like where
it will go in the US also.
The only advantage is I think not having to pay a tip with CS.

But do we know the reg DDP isnt going up in price, isnt there rumors of it going up to $45-$50 and including a App or something? All I know is $30 for 2 meals and 2 snacks doesnt sound that good to me. a Burger is $7, a drink is $2.50 2 times, and 2@$3 snacks is $25

That is exactly what I thought. We are going September 2009 and I was hoping to get the free dining.

I sure hope that the TS one is still the free one.

Please read the threads that our UK friends are posting. They are offered the CS DDP for stays in the moderates and regular DDP for stays in the delux resorts and nothing for the value resorts. I think we will see a similar pattern for the US when it's offered.

I read somewhere on these boards that the reg plan will be $39.99 a day for adults and it's the same plan as the 2008 plan.

My mom, who is a travel agent, just called me to tell me about this. It is a new plan being offered for next year. I think it is good to have more options, and cheaper options at that!
