looking at ADRs, confused by the acronym "CAN"

[FelisLachesis]

Hi!

I'm looking at the menus on MDE, and I'm noticing the acronym "CAN" on a few of the menus. Can anyone explain to me what that stands for? Doing a Google search is useless, as the search is case insensitive.

Thanks!

The special menu for the Candle Light Processional package offered around Christmas.

Wouldn't you say it's not so much a special menu, but a special pricing.

It's special pricing for a package which I believe includes appetizer and dessert, along with guaranteed seating for Candlelight Processional.

Ahh, thanks guys! You're all the best.

Edit: looking at the information on the processional, I want to see it! How hard is it to change an ADR I already have to include this? I'm going to be in Epcot the last day the processional is happening.

If you already have an ADR at a restaurant that offers the CP package you will need to cancel the regular reservation and make a CP reservation. Different restaurants have different prices so take a look at those. Also there are price difference for different dining times. Your dining time will determine which show you attend.

You should call WDW dining to look and see if there is availability before cancelling a regular. I'd hate to have you cancel and then have nothing.

You are guaranteed a seat in the show with the package, however if you care where you are sitting you should still line up early for the show. Make sure when you line up you are in the package line not the stand by line.

Thanks for all your help! You saved me from missing something that sounds really special. I got a 1:35 at R&C as part of the CP package. It's my second choice restaurant, behind CdF, which looks booked solid. I'll keep looking.

One more question: does everyone have to order food, or can some of us share off other's plates? This looks like each meal will have enough food for two people.

You will each need to pay full price, no matter how much you eat. Think of it as this....you are paying for your "seat" at the show with food secondary. You don't have to eat the food, but you will have to pay for it.

Well Pooh... I'll just have to live with it. I'll doggie bag the rest of the food, I guess, and tell the kids this is all they're eating that day...

Thanks again!
