Does there seem to be a long wait on the dining line this morning?

Someone just posted on FB that there was a 35 minute wait right now. Is the website down again?

 

[yulilin3]

I waited 5 min. about 15 min, ago...

 

[yulilin3]

estimated wait time right now is 6 minutes, when prompted I say "Special Dinning Event Information" not sure if that makes a difference

 

[yulilin3]

PREMIUM PACKAGE (FEEL THE FORCE) IS OPENING FOR BOOKING AT 10AM TODAY!!!
Just talked to reservation agent at 407 WDW DINE. she has no info on it yet but said they should be ready to book at 10AM

 

[Skywise]

Is it worthwhile getting on the call now or wait 'til 10am?

 

[Metz172]

Oh my goodness I am so excited I can't wait. Booking the premium package will be the icing on the cake for our amazing trip.

I'm waiting till a bit closer....don't want to have to call back if they pick up before 10!

 

[yulilin3]

wait time right now is 5 min

I called and they let me book! $69/adult. Slightly confusing conversation. There may be 2 packages. She quoted me a $69 package and a $99 package. The $99 package sounded identical to the VIP package so I think she wasn't looking at it correctly. Anxious to see the official information in print later today. The $ 69 package sounded like Feel the Force from last year.

CALL NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyone got the actual name of the package yet?

VIP is $399. Perhaps there actually are 2 different packages this year?

 

[yulilin3]

it looks like the $99 includes your pick of one SWW show...not sure yet

 

[yulilin3]

please anyone calling now, get all the details you can. I don't want to clog the line if I'm not booking

 

[AuntieK]

The 69 package includes the parade with snacks plus the dessert party with the fireworks.

When she read off the details for the 99 party she was reading all of the elements I'd heard referenced for VIP but no meals mentioned (shows and Darth's Mall). So maybe there are 2 packages. If so I may switch to the higher priced one later today.

 

[drlaurafsu]

On hold now. Will get as much info as I can.

 

[saundedj]

On hold - estimated wait time for Special Dining Event is 7 minutes
