Candlelight Processional Dinner Package

[livsea2]

I just booked the dinner package but forgot to ask "What do you get for dinner?" Do you get soup salad entree desert? All the above? Anything but lobster ( I saw that was an extra charge ) Is there a set menu or do you pick anything you want. I can find a list of what's included other than the seat at the procession and the fireworks. Thanks

I was told that we would get an app., entree, dessert., & non-alcoholic beverage. Buffet reservations get the buffet & non-alcoholic beverage. Where are you eating? Which show are you attending?

I couldn't find a list anywhere. We are going to Chefs de France they booked us at 5:00 for the 8:15 show we should be good with that. We went several years ago when they first started the dinner deal and had to rush through dinner and I remember we had to get our desert to go. I think now they schedule it a little better. Thanks again for the info.

I was wondering about this myself. What's included in the package? Do you book this when you book your regular ADR'S? Can you cancel if you change your mind. We are going 12/27-1/2, so there are only a few days left of CP.
Thanks!

Since ours is Biergarten we don't have that question but I thought it was menu items just not lobster??
Ours is 12/24 at 4 for dinner then 645 show.
Uncw...you do have to hold with a credit card but you can cancel prior I believe without penalty up to 48 hours ahead...then $10 per person will be charged to cancel after that. You make the reservations at the same time as you make your ADR's but have to specify that you want the package and not just the restaurant.

Actually I called twice about this and I was told that you get the appet/entree/desert as mentioned. BUT, I was told TWICE your credit card is charged the ENTIRE price if you are a no show. I asked if it was a $10 no show (like Norway) and told NO, if you don't cancel before 48 hours you are charged the ENTIRE price.

That is what we were told, if you fail to cancel within 48 hours you get charged the full price for a no show. I think that poster is confusing it with the Fantasmic dinner package. That one has a $10 no show fee. Why the big difference? I have no clue.

Help me out with a quick CP question. Last year we did the package at Le Cellier with my parents. They're slow moving, so we did not get to the show until just before it started. Dad was in a scooter (and couldn't walk the distance to a seat) so we were seated in the very back along the fence. No biggie, it was a beautiful show regardless of where we were. This year we're going sans parents, can hustle from dinner to the show if needed and really (REALLY!) want a better seat. How do we accomplish that? When we got to the gates for the CP, there was no one waiting, so I didn't see how the line works. Is there a special spot for those with CP package reservations? And if you had the package, do you get preferred seating?

Thank you!

Oh sorry, one more question. We want (assuming there's still availability) to eat at Biergarten. Anyone know pricing?

Actually I meant if you actually call and cancel with less than 48 prior, not no show

Pricing on Biergarten...um...I don't know per person exactly...but we have 4 (3 adult, one child price) and our total is $168.25...that is for the second seating.
Wait...let me look because I know I had it in my notes (printed off allears)
I have seating 1 (lunch) is 32.99 adult (plus tax and gratuity) 17.99 child
seating 2 or 3 (dinner) is 44.99 adult 22.99 child
It adds up to 157.96 by my calculations so I'm assuming the total they quoted me includes the tax (was quoted prices today and was told they included tax so thinking the same here).

The line for people with dinner package seats forms to the left of the theater if you are facing the theater. People w/o dinner package form a line to the right. People w/o start the line hours before the start. People with the package start lining up about a hour to an hour and a half before. You can get in line about 30 minutes prior and still get a decent seat. Mind you I haven't done it in a couple/maybe three years so it may have become more competative to get seats. It's Disney so expect a long wait if you want good seats.
Yes, the best seats are reserved for people with the package.

If you cancel more than 48 hours ahead there is no charge.

Does Disney even have anything official published on the CP package yet??? I can't find anything. I was also wondering what all was included for dinner.

This is all they have http://disneyworld.disney.go.com/parks/epcot/special-events/candlelight-processional/
If you read through the posts you'll see you get an app, entree, dessert and a non alcoholic beverage. From what I've heard you get your choice (except lobster entrees).
