Christmas Week Dining

[Mariellen102]

Hello! I am going to be at WDW Dec20th-26th and this is my first time during christmas! I will be able to make my ADR's soon and was wondering if they were any changes around the holidays??. I know CRT is pay in full when you book, I was wondering if all of them that way around the holidays? or same as any time of the yr just a card to hold if and pay when u arrive.?? I also know there is a price increase around the holidays anyone with expeirence know typical how much the meals increase? Thank you!!

I'm fairly sure all the booking rules are the same around the holidays. If you go to allears.net the upcharge will be the highest cost listed ie Crystal Palace lunch has the cost listed as $26.62-$30.88. The $30.88 is the "holiday" pricing. In general, the character meals and buffets are all $4 more.

I don't know the exact dates, but you may be able to bypass some of it by booking your character buffets earliest in your trip.

Ok! Thank you very much!!

We go xmas week every year(last 6 years and returning this year). Only change is increase in price of DDP and on xmas day some places have special holiday menus(we found just additional entree or dessert, but other menu still there). I suggest making your ADRs at 180 days and plan where you want to be park-wise and dining wise. I have been able to get everything I wanted including CG, OHANA, Le Cellier e.g. but we also eat late for dinner(aroound 8pm or later). I have also been able to add an ADR when I arrived at The Wave and at Il Mulino.
