Well, when I go (the last week of May) theres holiday pricing, so I asked Disney dining how much it will be and the only places I asked for were the Breakfast at Ohana and 1900 park fair for dinner and Ohana breakfast went from 18.99 to 22.99 and the Park Fair dinner went from 28.99 to 33.99.
If you have specific resturants you were wondering about,you can call and ask and they will be more than happy to help you
The one with the highest price up was The Garden Grill. Is sure bugged me paying such high prices but to be able to see the characters it was worth it since it was so crowded and we were really limited as to seeing some characters. Didn't see hardly any at all except at the buffets.
There is no "holiday bump" on the DP, so if you buy the DP its like saving those dollars everytime. For a family of 2A and 2C that savings could easily be like getting the child DP free for the day!
Yea, if you're going to eat those meals anyway it is hard to bypass. If you're saving $ it shouldn't be too hard to convince him to go with the DP. Good luck.
He said it was to much pressure last year. We had a group of 13 & had to keep telling everyone what was included with each meal. I see his point but this year I think it is only going to be 4 of us. The savings are HUGE on some days...like $80.
