Thanks for the reviews!!!! Where can I find information on the Kingdom Lunch vouchers?

 

[angey77]

Connections has the Vacation Kingdom Lunch vouchers. I never had problems with Connections, but many people have (such as being charged for additional membership), so beware. I bought mine for December back in April before my membership ran out and I believe the price was $30.50 each.

What did you get at Rainforest with the vouchers? Was Cosmic Rays a good place to use the q&c?

Hi gabbygrennell, Please tell more about the fireworks and Ohana. Was it happenstance or did you plan it? That sounds fun!

Ok... lets start with the easy one first....

Cosmic Rays... in tomorrow land... great place to use vouchers!!!
Only thing I didnt like was the way it was set up... there are basically 3 different ordering areas i guess you would call it. 1- rotiss ckn, ckn sndwch, fries, mash pot etc... 2-burgers, hotdogs, fries, etc...3-soups, salads, sandwiches etc...

What I didnt like using the vouchers, was .... if ordering from the ckn sandwich area, and you wanted soup for your side you couldnt do it. ... you could only pick from the sides offered at that area....

But, my boys ate burgers, ckn strips & fries
DH... philly streak sandwich (really good), fries
Me... philly steak sandwich, crm skn soup( i loved it, dh hated it)

Good deal with our vouchers... we saved at least 3$ each... and we were always soo stuffed after lunch, we normally didnt eat dinner, just grabbed a snack....
oh, and the ohter pet peeve about the vouchers... some places would let you come back for the dessert if you would like, but others made you take it then, so if it was ice cream, you either ate it first, ate it after (mostly melted) or threw it away....

RFC
we used 2 adult and 2 kid vouchers
*bvgs...coke, coke, coke, diet coke

*aptzrs... awesome appetizer (counts as 2), pita quesadillas, wings (were told they were medium, but i could not eat them too hot, and i generally like semi hot food)

*entree... kid pizza x2, steak & shrimp, steak & stuffed lobster

*dessert....volcano (counts as 2), bananas foster, & banana cheesecake to go

everything was delicicous!!!!!!
our bill for the vouchers portion ( we also had a bill for the souveneir kids cups, and 2 alcholic drinks) was 185.00, and the vouchers cost us 86$ so they were a great deal! Definitely doing it next time!

Our waiter, Nick, was excellent! When we were first there, we asked how the kid vouchers worked, as there are no aptzrs on kid menu, he told us the kids could order everything off the adult menu, or the kid menu or a little of both! What a deal!
any more questions, let me know!

We did not plan on seeing the fireworks... I had a ps at 7 pm....

and when it came time for the fireworks, the restaurant dimmed, and over the speakers came the words you hear at the MK, and then the fireworks started... the kids loved it...

we were not near the windows, and could see fairly ok from our table, but our kids being kids, could not resist going to the windows... the people seated nearby didnt mind....

if we go at FW time next time, I will ask for a table by the windows!

Thanks
Nicky

 

[gabbygrennell]

Beaches n cream is at the Beach Club Resort

Excellent food.... fun atmosphere!

The vouchers are qucik n casual vouchers and vacation kingdom lunch vouchers....
you can get these a number of ways
dealpass123.com
(same as connections)
there are several posts on the budget board that go into much better detail, and give a number to gretting a membership through lilian vernon, which is much cheaper, and you can then get them through connections!!!
