******Official 2017 Free Dining Plan Watch, Wait, and Dream

[Starwind]

Hi black,
Did you hear whether the minimum on the tickets have changed. Is it still the minimum of two days with the park hopper or park hopper plus?

It says right in his message minimum 4 nights. That is also what the other sources (eg South American travel agents) are saying.

"It's delicious! Don't believe me...ask the dishes!" Couldn't help myself.

So what am I missing? Is it a chocolate cupcake with confectionary sugar frosting? Or is there some secret surprise in the middle?

Here's how crazy we are for Free Dining. When the rumors started we decided to book flights 2 days ago from PVD to MCO on JetBlue non stop both ways for $785 for the 4 of us.

Then yesterday we made all our ADR's for our 8 day trip 9/26-10/4. So we have airfare and ADR's, but no room or tickets.

These rumors better be true!

Kind of scary! Here's some pixie dust...just in case you need it.

 

[ThistleMae]

I too would like to know this! It very well might affect whether we upgrade to annual passes or not!

This topic has been debated with no clear answer. Black worded it PH and PH+. Some feel it can't be both because PH+ includes the PH...so essentially it doesn't make sense to say "and". Many of us think it is one or the other. So short answer...we won't know until it comes out. Sorry.

No hype from me. Someone asked where the picture was from and because of the tiny cupcake I could tell it was BOG. I do not like their cupcakes at all and the gray stuff just taste like oreo whip cream.

That's exactly what I've been thinking....it's just an ordinary cupcake with thick, gooey, too sweet frosting. Right?

Mae, we are prepared to book using other means if necessary.

Well, we are one day closer to Friday! I know we are going to hear something on Friday....I can feel it in my bones! Get ready everyone...the excitement is about to explode!

Yes that is correct.

It's disappointing as is most food in BOG - just my taste buds opinions obviously. We've done dinner and lunch. Probably won't be back. I've done CRT twice, once for both kids. Won't be back. Makes getting my ADR's a lot easier. lol.

I don't find it thick or gooey at all. It is like cool whip. Way too fluffy and light. Give me a starring rolls cupcake anytime, wait.... LOL!~

Very well put. I think I feel like it's $16 per person, so I don't really care! Bahahaha!!!

My family and I love Pop. We stayed at Contemporary and Poly two years ago and decided we prefer Pop. For the amount of time you spend at the resort, it just isn't worth the price difference. Pop has a great vibe, a good food court and a devoted bus. Need I say more?

Lots of people make this comment when staying at Values. But not me. We spend tons of time at our resort.
I could spend all day hanging out at the Hippy Dippy pool.

Well a light frosting would be more to my liking...but if I have to choose a dessert, it wouldn't be a cupcake. It would be bread pudding from Ohana' or Creme Brulee from the French place...or my favorite, the school bread from Norway...Yum!

I'm trying to make a spreadsheet... what is the appropriate abbreviation for deluxe dining plan?

You got it! Raglan Roads bread pudding is amazing!! Anything from France and I like the troll horn for Norway. YUM!! I need 2 snack credits a day!

Do you really think it'll be this Friday? I thought I read that Monday might be the day? So confused

I understood that to mean the amount of nights that you had to book in the hotel not the amount of days for your tickets.

Isn't the cupcake just a cupcake with frosting? What is all the hype about the gray stuff?

The cupcake at lunch is so much better then the grey stuff desert at dinner. Keep the grey stuff! I enjoy the strawberry cupcake.

I do have a question. We have reservations at Pop for week in a standard. After doing some research and considering we have 70 year olds and a 6 and 8 year old..is it worth $15 a night for our 2 rooms to upgrade to a preferred based on description close to dining and transportation? Can people who have stayed there tell me If the rooms are significantly closer and saves lots of walking for a week stay. It would cost $230 + tax to upgrade the 2 rooms. Thx in advance
