Okay, so I called back today. The CM was really nice and fun, but, again, when I told her that I had heard from 2 different websites and that I had gotten the '08 DP brochure and all sources said that at the late seating, DP members could get Cat. 1.
She said that she had never heard of that, but she was going to try booking it to see. She tried, and then it went through. She said, "Wow, it allowed the booking. . . then, she said, "Wait, it is showing a charge. Then, she said, "Now it is zeroing-out. You are good to go."
She laughed and said, "Do you think that you could send US a copy of the '08 Dining Plan brochure so that we'd know what was going on? I've never heard that the 9:30 seating allowed Cat. 1 DP members."
No, we're not going during Mardi Gras. . .(I wish)! The school district here does not release the students for Mardi Gras. This was for June (and there was no availability left on the early two seatings that day already).
