Dining reservation deposits

[twooley2]

Can someone tell me which meals will require a deposit to reserve and how much? I plan on purchasing or adding the DLXP dining plan but not quite at the 180 day mark, most likley a couple of months after that time.

The following are paid in full for your entire party at booking unless you already have a dining plan on your reservation. If you don't already have a dining plan at booking you must pay in full and be refunded when you are at WDW and switch your payment to dining credits:

Cinderella's Royal Table
Hoop de Doo Revue
Spirit of Aloha Luau
Mickey's Backyard Barbecue

Note that the online system often charges in full even for those who already have a dining plan on their room reservation. It's suggested that dining plan guests who want to avoid prepayment should make these reservations by phone if possible. If you are already on a dining plan, your credit card number should be taken for a no-show guarantee, but you should not be charged. If you don't cancel and don't show up there will be a per-person no-show fee.

The following require a credit card hold (not a deposit) regardless of whether or not you are on a dining plan. The card will be charged only if you don't cancel within the required time and don't show up. The charge will be a no-show fee per person, which varies depending on which restaurant you book.
