Is there a thread to subscribe to around dining packages? Wondering if I need to stalk MDE for July or if there is a handy dandy dis thread?!

I had a question about the seating diagram - Are the Dining Packages (light gray), Fastpass (brown) and Stand-by (blue)?

Thanks!

Pretty sure I'm subscribed to 3 threads about this! I wish we could create threads where someone would ONLY post IF NEW packages/dates became available... "I booked xx/xx/xx which has been open for ages now!!" not super helpful as an email notification...

No, fp is the entire area on the Asia side and packages and standby the entire area on Dinoland side
Gray are stone benches
Brown are wooden benches
Blue is standing room (if I'm not mistaken) this is the only one I'm not 100% sure

So how early would you all suggest getting there for a dining package reservation then? Maybe 30 minute or so? (We have a dining package for the end of April for a 9:15 show.)

I just remembered something about the seating that was brought up when the Jungle Book show was happening but I guess it's worth repeating
The stone benches (closer to the bottom) are better for viewing as the are higher and will give short people (like me) a better view, but they do get warm and in the summer months hot.
The wooden benches portion are shorter so you might have a person's head blocking a bit if you are short but they don't get as hot
Being all the way at the bottom, front row, will not get you wet whatsoever, unlike Fantasmic!

And I'll add that we did the stone benches for Jungle Book Alive, and we thought they were very uncomfortable to sit on that long ... so when they began selling the stadium cushions I wasn't surprised.

When do they open for stand-by?

 

[CatNipRules]

Hoping they extend it. We are going to,nce there in September and am wanting to see this. Keeping my fingers crossed.

With as much as they have spent, I would expect it to be around at least a few years.

Absolutely, and it will only get better.

For other similar events (like F! dinner package and dessert parties) they will allow you admission to the show on a different night, I believe up to 5 nights after your meal.

For the F! dinner package, they offered us tickets to the park and FP to the F! show on another day - I was surprised at the tickets to the park. They are good for one person each and only on the day they are claimed.
A year later and I still haven't claimed them since all 4 of us haven't been in the park at the same time. I was told they would never expire.

Maybe they'll do something like that if ROL is cancelled and you booked a dining package?

When I check the May schedule I only see the 9:15 showing not 2 shows on in May. Which is correct 2 shows or only 1 show? Thanks so much!

 

[wdw&sonny]

Was there a show last night (Monday February 13, 2017)? Was it scheduled? Did they hand out wristbands?
We will be there ~3:00 PM, Thursday Feb 16. I am wondering about chances of a show.

 

[JessicaW1234]

Well, that's not the worst idea I've ever heard...I love me some Tusker!

Do you know how late of a reservation I could make & still have the breakfast at Tusker?

I think they transition from Breakfast to Lunch at about 11:00 AM. I am not 100% sure though because I usually eat breakfast much earlier.

I think it should be 10:55am.

That's what I plan to do too - it will be nice to have a mix of both breakfast and lunch dishes.

Thanks- is this 2 credits on the DDP?
