Is there an upcharge at restaurants during peak season?

[Brer Shay]

I remember reading last year that there were upcharges at Disney restaurants last year during peak seasons - we weren't there then so I didn't pay too much attention. Are they doing that again this summer? Is it at both CS and TS restaurants? How much was it?

Thanks!

I found this in the dining section of wdwinfo.com

During seasons of high demand, Disney raises the prices at most of the prix fixe restaurants.

Below are the restaurants and dates when you can expect to pay more. On average, it's $4.00 more per person ages 10 and up, $2.00 more per child ages 3 -9.

December 16, 2008 - January 3, 2009
April 5 - April 18, 2009
May 24 - July 11, 2009
Restaurants:

1900 Park Fare
Akershus
Biergarten
Boma
Cape May Cafe
Chef Mickey's
Cinderella's Royal Table
Crystal Palace
Garden Grill
Hollywood and Vine
Liberty Tree Tavern (dinner)
Ohana
Trails End
Tusker House

yep, basically all of the buffets and all of the "family-style" restaurants.

Not sure if you're doing or considering the DDP, but if you are this "upcharge" has no effect on the TS credits needed to visit these locations. All are 1TS except CRT which is 2TS.

If you're considering DDP, be sure add these increases into any calculations to see if DDP will make sense for you.
