Spinoff on the Fantasmic w/ Dining Pkg thread

[mello]

I was allowed to make a PS for the Fantasmic pkg using the dining plan, but she said nothing about a special menu.

So, am I understanding it correctly that you cannot order off the menu, but must eat from the price fixe menu if you do the fantasmic package? But if you go at the same time, and don't get the fantasmic, you can order off the menu? Or is the price fixe only during certain times of day?

Fixed menus are so tedious... I know it's weird, but I don't care for tiramisu, and had my heart set on that coffee tartufo dessert. Wondering if we should make a change to our PS.

Do you all think it's worth eating what they tell you to eat in order to get these Fantasmic seating passes???

There are limited menus for the Fantasmic package. That restriction is actually part of the package, and appears to be noted wherever Disney promotes the package, so presumably if you know about the package you're supposed to know about the restriction. What ends up happening, of course, is that folks hear about the package and "spread the word" but not all the details. Folks mean well, I'm sure, but the results is that lots of people who don't go back to Disney to find out about the package don't get the full story about what the package entails. Of course, here at the DIS, we have all the right information -- the full details -- readily available to us.
