Need Some clarification about CRT

[Fryan08]

If I make reservations in December for our trip in June, do I get the price as it is now or do I pay the new price. Also do I get the photo package as well?

Thanks
Frances

Hi Frances,

You will get the new (higher) price. This is from allearsnet.com:

Beginning February 1, 2006, dining at Cinderella's Royal Table will undergo several changes:

-- Breakfast and Lunch will continue as Disney Princess-themed character meals. However, when you arrive at Cinderella Castle for your reservation, a photographer will be on hand to take pictures of your group in the lobby, before you are seated in the dining room. A package with four 4x6 prints and one 6x8 print of your photo, as well as one 6x8 print of Cinderella Castle, in a Cinderella photo holder (valued at $29.95 plus tax) will be delivered to you during your meal, which will be from a fixed-price, set menu. (Additional photos may be purchased.)

Breakfast: $31.99 ages 10 and up; $21.99 ages 3-9. Lunch: $33.99 ages 10 and up; $22.99 ages 3-9.

-- Dinner will become a fixed-price, set meal, also, hosted by the Fairy Godmother, who will lead the observance of special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. You will also have the chance to have your photo taken before dining, with a photo package similar to that mentioned above offered to you during the meal. In addition, you will receive a special, unframed, unmatted lithograph (worth $50), given exclusively to diners at Cinderella's Royal Table Dinner.

Dinner: $39.99 ages 10 and up; $24.99 ages 3-9.

NOTE: Once these changes go into effect (February 1, 2006), payment in full with a credit card will be required at the time of booking for all meals at Cinderella's Royal Table. If you do not have a credit card, the reservation cannot be made. All reservations for dining at Cinderella's Royal Table prior to February 1, 2006, will follow current pricing and deposit payment policies.

Maybe I read it differently than you but I thought if you were dining after Feb 1 you would be subject to the new pricing. You would also get the photo package like anyone else dining there after the changes go into effect on Feb 1.

It says all reservations for dining prior to February 1 will be under the old policies. It doesn't say all dining reservations made prior to February 1. Big difference.

That means if you make a reservation now for a trip right through Jan 31 you pay the old price. If your reservation will be for dining anytime February 1 or beyond you pay the new price.

So, if you make a reservation today for a trip in June you will not be dining prior to February 1 and you will pay the new price.

DisneyKids and Honeymo78 are 100% correct!!!!

I have edited my original post and it now agrees with what they said. Sorry for any confusion.

Thank you all very much. I have read so much as was just a little confused. Also do the other princesses still walk around to the tables? I know that Cinderella will only be at the entrance for pictures.

Thanks again so much
Frances
