Tusker House ROL Package - Now 2 Dining Credits?

[Jessirip]

Hi all - maybe I missed it here. Does anyone have a recent experience with booking or using the ROL package at Tusker House? Disney's website now states that the package is 2 dining credits, it is not specific to Tiffins. Sorry I can't do a screen shot but it is under the "Know before you go" section here. https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/dining/animal-kingdom/rivers-of-light-dining-package/

My confirmation email from when I booked the package (4 or so months ago) for this coming Monday states it is 1 credit, and I have sent an email inquiring about the change and what that means. Unfortunately the fine print reads "pricing subject to change", but still - 2 TS credits is a lot more than 1.

I will share when I hear back, just wondering if anyone here had any insight as well.

Will do. I'm going to call tomorrow as we leave Saturday, but am hoping for an email so I have something in writing.

We were there at the beginning of March and it was only 1 credit. I would not use 2 credits to eat at Tusker House so hopefully it stays 1 credit.

 

[Cramden]

Still 1 credit. Here's a screenshot for a May booking. a May booking.

Oh my gosh I hope not.

Mine says the same as the screen shot above for our trip in 2 weeks. 1 credit!

It is only ONE CREDIT. The wording you're seeing has been there for MONTHS, if not since ROL debuted. I don't know why Disney hasn't fixed it yet, but there have been multiple threads concerned about it and no one has been charged 2 credits yet.

Thanks, I didn't know it was a known issue and appreciate the info.

BTW, my ALL CAPS were not meant as a yelling mode, but an emphasis mode since so many PPs were also concerned. I just wanted to get their attention. Sorry if it came off otherwise.

I booked the TH RoL dining package a couple of weeks ago and didn't notice if it was 1 or 2 credits. After reading this post I checked and it said 2 credits, so I cancelled it and just booked TH. The reviews I read about RoL didn't justify 2 credits. And even though we love it, TH certainly isn't worth 2. I think packages booked for dates after a certain day are now 2 credits, the Disney website now says it's 2.

The website has said that for a long time now; it is NOT 2 credits.

That's interesting because here is what is says when you go to the page and open "know before you go"

• Admission to Disney’s Animal Kingdom park is required and is not included in the price of the dining package.
• Disney Dining Plan and Disney Deluxe Dining Plans require 2 table-service entitlements.

Yes this is the part that was confusing me. I did call today for grins, and was told by Disney Dining that the Tusker House package is 1 credit only, so that is what I'm going with.

I understand that. That same thing has been posted here many times in the last few months and no one yet has had to pay 2 TS credits. Disney needs to fix the wording on their site; not sure why they haven't. They have a huge copy/editing issue.

I just called this morning and I was assured that it was only one TS credit. The reason that they have 2TS credits in the website is because Tiffins is the other restaurant. They were able to change my res. To the RoL package at the exact same time so I'm happy.

I'm in the same predicament. I have a reservation in May 2018 for Lunch at Tusker House - ROL show package. My confirmation email says it's 1 entitlement, and when I view the details of my reservation on MDE it also says 1 entitlement. (Similar to what Cramden showed). However, when I asked Disney they said it was two. I asked via email and via phone (two different cast members). I don't know what to believe.

 

[ZerasPride]

DisMama - if it helps ease your mind any I am DVC and switched a breakfast Tusker ROL reservation yesterday for late May from a Tuesday to a Friday to better fit a FOP fast pass and the CM assured me it is 1 dining credit. That is what I am going with. Lol!

The chat and phone CMs are just reading off the page from Disney's site that has the error. It is only ONE credit. The copy/editing people who created the info page lumped Tusker and Tiffins together.

Thank you ZerasPride and sharonabe. That makes me feel much better. I'm glad I didn't cancel my reservation.
