Hello Disers,
I have a trip planned August 28th to September 7th. Sounds great huh ? Not really...We dont arrive into MCO until 10:20 p.m on August 28th making our trip really August 29th to September 7th....But last night i discovered...My reservation is only for August 28th to September 6th!! I logged onto my disney experience to change the dates figuring hmm ill just do a room only for August 28th since were not going to be there that day anyway..No such luck! Everything is booked up for free dining ..It would not let me adjust the dates so ill have to book a room only for September 6th which means our tradition of going to downtown disney to use up the remaining snack credits wont happen because September 6th is our MK day and we'll be there rope drop to closing .

Anywho because of the late arrival we will have one extra day's of credit..so one extra TS,QS,2 snacks ! That's kinda exciting. There was no 180 dining booking because i booked when free dining was released so i grabbed whatever was available that I wanted .

Here are my plans

Thursday September 7th -Leaving





I wrote in extra QS at pop or MK but we may use the extra credit somewhere else...that's just a just in case we havent used it..Were big eaters in my family so we'd definetly use those extra credits.

For the extra ts meal...I chose yak and yeti at 11:00 a.m. because breakfast items are a waste of a credit unless its a buffet and i was going to use it at ohana breakfast but couldnt get an early enough reservation so i just tossed it...I would LOVE a BOG lunch reservation on our MK day but that's impossible at this point . I HATE MK's table service choices...i chose liberty tree tavern because i didnt know what else to eat at MK.

Crystal Palace doesnt appeal to me at all as far as characters etc. I chose it because i read they have some type of seafood mac and cheese and im all about that.

I was able to grab Ohana by the skin of my teeth that 9:45 reservation was the only one available the whole week..Im just glad i got one because we love Ohana.

I dont think i did that good with my park days for some reason...its our first time having park hopper because we were forced with the free dining ...so it is what it is...
 
I just realized i wrote breakfast at poly captain cook's ....Ill pay OOP for that. I just want to try the tonga toast. ...dont want to waste a qs credit on breakfast.. I only use qs credits on lunch or dinner
 
I haven't been to most of your restaurants, but to me it looks good! I know you mentioned that on your last day that you typically use up your snack credits at Disney Springs. If you're the type to use them up by bringing treats home, you could probably easily buy the same stuff in the Confectionary or Big Top Treats at the Magic Kingdom or even at Everything Pop (less choices there, though) at Pop Century. Just a thought! I would try calling Disney and see if a CM could work some magic for you to stay one more day. You never know!
 
Nice choices-- we've done many of those restaurants and enjoyed them all!
 

Those look good! How many people in your group? It may be possible to get a BOG ADR. People cancel all the time.
 
Good Choices!! I haven't tried yak and yeti yet but hear it's great! I'm keeping my fingers crossed we can get a ressi at Ohana, have been a few times and never able to get one!! Liberty Tree is so much food and so good!!!
 
I think you did great!

I wouldn't plan a QS meal at the Poly though. QS is awesome at every park except the Studios so I don't think it's worth losing park time to go to the Polynesian for QS.

Other than that, I think your plans are perfect. :)
