Cost for Deluxe and Premiun plans

[Dogslider]

Hoping that someone can tell me the cost for the Deluxe Dining and the Premium Dining. We are staying DVC and doing Cirque du Soleil and would like to check to see if one of these plans would work better for us than the regular plan.

Thanks!
Pam

2008 Dining Plan Changes

The Deluxe Dining plan does NOT include gratuity. It DOES include the appetizer.

*************


Automatic Gratuity will be removed from all 2008 packages that include dining. Tax will still be INCLUDED, but the gratuity will not.


2008 will see the introduction of the Magic Your Way Plus DELUXE Dining Plan. This plan will include: 3 meals a day - your choice of table service or counter service; 2 snacks per day per person; a Resort Refillable Mug for each person on the reservation. Signature restaurants will still count as 2 Table Service meals, but now with the additional table service meals, dinner shows and signature restaurants may be more doable. Price will be $69.99 for those 10 and older and $19.99 for those 3-9.

The last major change will probably be the addition of a Magic Your Way Plus Wine package. For $39.99 per night you may order a bottle of wine at your Disney restaurant or from a location on property that sells wine (like resort stores). It can not be purchased separately and may only be an add-on to a Dining Package. There are still a lot of details to work out on this including if there will be a special wine list to order from or a dollar limit. Sounds like if you are at a Signature Restaurant that takes 2 Table Service credits, you will also be charged 2 Wine credits if on the add-on plan.

Thanks! Do you know have any ideas about the Premuim Plan?

Not really - but if you mean the Platinum Plan, and the only 'extra' you're planning to use is go to Cirque, it's probably not cost-effective. You'd need to find the pricing and compare the packages.

Actually there is a premium plan listed that includes Cirq and different tours, golfing, boating etc.. I just can't find pricing for it outside of a package.

 

[kaytieeldr]

Most likely because it's ONLY available as part of a package.

That would explain it! I assumed as with the other plans that you could add it on to a DVC stay. Thanks
