Yeah, I'm pretty sure that you have to call.

Oh, make sure the CM understands.... and I mean REALLY understands.... that you want to book the Fantasmic! Dining Package. The CM on the phone tried to tell me that I could book a dinner at Mama Melrose's for 6:00 pm when I knew darned well (thanks to the DIS!!!!) that the dining packages were seatings at 4:00 pm or earlier. I just kept saying "Are you SURE it's the F!DP? I don't think that late of an ADR could be with the F!DP" Eventually he said "Oh, no, wait.. there's a different code" and then he booked us for 3:45. Needless to say, that was the only ADR I made with him and then I immediately called back and asked the next CM to make sure it was the package! Yeesh.

Yes, you have to book the package by phone. At this time it can't be booked online at all. As the previous poster said, you also need to make absolutely sure that the agent knows you want to book the Fantasmic package and not a regular reservation.

Just wanted to say what time the Fantasmic dinner packages are available at really depends on what time Fantasmic is going to be shown. We have gone in May (2 years in a row) when the first show didn't start until 9:00 p.m. Once our Mama Melrose reservations was for 4:55 p.m., the other time it was for 5:15. So it is possible to have a later seating. Now I just booked for January 2011 and Fantasmic will be at 6:30 p.m., so yeah, for that one, I'm sure there's no 5:15 seatings...you'd never make it, lol.
