CRT lunch up to $33 per adult as of 2/1???

[kjs1976]

I was all excited to book CRT lunch with my mom when we go in July. When I stared to make the ADR, she explained I'd be charged for the full amount and be allowed to cancel up to 24hrs. prior without penalty. Then she told me it was $122 something "I was like, hold on a minute, please check the per person price for that. And it was a surprise for her to that as of 2/1 the price jumps up $10 a person for adults. We don't have any kiddos in the party so I don't know about that. Shoot! I have to seriously rethink that now! But the CM did say that they take your picture in the lobby and come around with a package at your table....so does that mean you GET a picture or it's like Chef Mickey's where you have to purchase it???? Whoa, lotsa price hikes lately!

Did I miss this news flash? Has this been discussed somewhere???

I am pretty sure that you have to pay for the pics like Chef Mickey's. I cant say that for 100% only because when we were there we had a problem and spoke to the manager so she said we got it for free.. since she said we got the package for free I am assuming that there is a charge for it.

You did miss the news. It's been discussed a lot since this was first announced. Yes, the price INCLUDES the picture.

A package with four 4x6 prints and one 6x8 print of your photo, as well as one 6x8 print of Cinderella Castle, in a Cinderella photo holder (valued at $29.95 plus tax) will be delivered to you during your meal, which will be from a fixed-price, set menu.

-- Dinner will become a fixed-price, set meal, also, hosted by the Fairy Godmother, who will lead the observance of special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. You will also have the chance to have your photo taken before dining, with a photo package similar to that mentioned above offered to you during the meal. In addition, you will receive a special, unframed, unmatted lithograph (worth $50), given exclusively to diners at Cinderella's Royal Table Dinner.
