I signed the petition...and I emailed Disney about this last night. I am just sick that they are taking this away. It is one of our favorite WDW meals, and a must-do each and every trip. I hope they listen to us!!!!

Thanks for starting a petition for us...that is awesome! I hope we're heard!

Sorry but I can't sign the petition and I've also emailed Disney thanking them for making this decision. This used to be and hopefully will be in the future the only quiet sit down restaurant in Magic Kingdom. There are several other character meals available for those who enjoy them so having one quiet nine character meal available for those who don't enjoy them is a great idea!

I am sorry but it is not the only none character meal in MK there is The Plaza and Tony's.

It is the only meal in MK with the classic characters - and I do believe that there should be at least one in the 'Classic' park. It is also one of the few character meals served family style for those that don't like buffets.

I will be emailing WDW to complain.

Good luck with the petition. As a former cast member, I can tell you that once Disney decides to do something, they don't change their minds back. And it is true about both restaurants. I called to plan my trip and asked the CM taking my reservation. He reluctatly told me about both restaurants. October is the first quarter for them so it kind of makes sense to do the change then. But like I said Good Luck

The Plaza can hardly be considered a restaurant since it only serves sandwiches. Yes, Tony's is a sit down restaurant with a decent menu but as you mentioned LTT is a meal that's served family style which is a very nice option. The menu at Crystal Palace is certainly much more child friendly and the menu at LTT which really many kids don't enjoy. Also, there are many characters throughout the park all the time so having them at a meal is just a distraction from eating in many cases.

But that is the best part of LTT! LTT is separated into six different rooms. As the characters travel through the restaurant it is very hard to see them in another room. This makes for a calmer atmosphere. Since LTT is not a buffet, there are also no kids running around and walking right up to the characters. This is easilly a more enjoyable atmosphere than say Crystal Palace.

I've read all of the posts here and have kept up on this rumor turned truth. I personally love LTT for the food, service, and entire experience. It was a very quiet and relaxing dinner away from the hustle and bustle of the Magic Kingdom and I am sad that they are not including characters anymore. However, they are keeping the same food and the place will relatively be the same. If I had children, I'd be more sad to see this go as it would be a nice quiet alternative to the other busy character meals. Still, I 100% understand the need for change in dining experiences.

With all of this being said, I am still going to voice my opinion to Disney in due time. Likewise, I would never consider canceling a Disney trip because of a restaurant change. That just seems overboard to me. I also would not take my money to an off-site eatery because I can get those types of foods and experiences back at home. Part of the vacation experience is the fun of eating some place new.

just wanted to send out a quick thank you to all of you that have signed.

Tusker house was not an added character meal. It was a relocated character meal from Dinoland.

To date the character meals are:
Liberty Tree Tavern (Dinner Only soon to be never)
Crystal Palace
Cindy's Royal Table
Chef Mickey's (Breakfast and Dinner Only)
Ohana's (Breakfast Only)
Tusker House (Breakfast Only)
Cap May's (Breakfast Only)
Norway
Garden Grill (soon to be Dinner Only)
Play and Dine (Lunch and Breakfast Only)

That's ten restaurants out of a total of how many in WDW? Guest constantly have trouble making ADR's and want more opportunities to dine with characters. If you don't like characters there are plenty of other place in the world you can eat or time of a day you can eat at.
The reason why I am working to Save LTT is not because it is a character meal, but because it is popular with guest and the characters.

Doesn't Fort Wilderness have a character BBQ?

LTT happens to be the only chance for Goofy to be out of the shadow of other characters. I understand that he is present at other character dining, but let's let the Goof have his spotlight.

Sort of. It's more of a show really.

I'm not Anti-Character dining but I also want to eat my meals without distraction.

If I want to see them in another restaurant I'll do so if it's not already filled up.
