CP Package on DP?

[emilymad]

We are debating adding the DP package for our recent trip but the math is confusing this time around!

General the TS credits aren't considered a good value for 2 TS restaurants but it seems to work out for the CP package. If TS credits are valued around $30 each then the CP package costs $60 but OOP is costing $66 so that is still a value.

Does this seem right? I don't know why I am so confused!

You need to take into account that this is not a typical 2 credit restaurant. What you're paying for is essentially a 1-credit restaurant meal plus preferred entry to a show that would cost you nothing if you were to just attend without the package.

It also depends on which restaurant you choose. Not all CP packages cost $66. Lunch packages at the lower tier restaurants cost $32.99 per adult plus tax. Also if you choose Biergarten or Garden Grill it doesn't make a difference that you'd be allowed an appetizer. The math you are doing is relevant if you are planning to choose a dinner, rather than a lunch, at the highest priced restaurants.

I also don't understand why they keep posting every year that lobster entrees are excluded when none of the participating restaurants have served lobster entrees in years.

We are doing Tutto Italia for dinner so we are in the $66 range. None of the lower priced restaurants looked good to us.

Good point about it usually only being 1 credit, even with the additional of the appetizer. I wasn't looking at it like that.


I agree about the lobster. I almost asked the CM which restaurant she was talking about since I thought I had missed something.

Thanks!
