question re restaurants and annual passport

[shellyd]

When you have a dream passport do you show it at the beginning of the meal or the end.
Also has anyone had problems getting the free aperitif, do you have to ask or do you get it automatically, and is it worth having in the first place. I don’t want to find myself in any embarrassing situations.
Lastly do you get the 10% discount and aperitif in all restaurants including the Rainforest?

Thanks in advance for any replies...

Hi Shelly, we have Dream passes but din not know about the free drinks so we never asked. I suppose you would have to show your passes for them to know. We have just showed our passes when we have asked for the bill.

You do not get a discount in The Rainforest Cafe, Planet Hollywood and King Ludwigs. You get discount everywhere else.

Hope this helps

You need to show your passports to your waiter when you are seated.
We always kept forgetting until paying and CM's said they felt guilty that they had not offered us a kir or fruit juice

You will need to show the passes in order to get the free aperitif ~ occasionally a CM may think to offer but as a general rule you need to ask.

The free kir is nice (aren't all freebies ) but we don't have it anymore as we use shareholder's card for table service as that gives 15% discount and unfortunately they no longer combine perks!

hmmm that's a blow

I was always very surprised that we were able to have a complimentary drink on one discount card and then pay for our meal with another but we were actually advised to do this by the AP bureau. So we enjoyed both perks up until our last night last August when we were told it was no longer allowed.

I see in the last Shareholders newsletter it said the discounts cannot be combined with any AP offer. Still, it was good while it lasted.
