Via Napoli not on DDP in 2013???

[disney88]

I don't know what to take of this, but I was on touringplans.com looking at the various menus and noticed that for every restaurant it provides information on it's participation in the Disney Dining Plan. For Via Napoli, it said "Requires 1 credit" for 2012 and under 2013 it says "Will not participate". At first, I thought it was due to it being a non-Disney owned restaurant, whose contract doesn't renew with the DDP until the end of the year. But, then when I was looking at other non-Disney owned restaurants, like Le Celliar and Teppan Edo, they did have information like "Requires 2 credit" for Le Celliar in 2013, etc.

So...could this mean that Via Napoli isn't participating in the DDP next year?

I wasn't sure if anyone knew anything more, because I looked at the DDP brochures on the WDW website and they still don't list the additional non-Disney owned restaurants, like Le Celliar and Teppan Edo yet. But, touringplans.com did have all of the others already updated.

I know I should take this with a grain of salt until the official brochure is updated, but I'm trying to decide whether I should change my ADRs for my trip Jan/Feb.

The 2013 DDP restaurants have not been finalized. Non Disney owned restaurants will be on by the beginning of January. I'd hold off. Most stay on the DDP and/or join, not drop it.

Via Napoli is on the 2013 dining plan. Look at the 2013 brochure, I'm not sure how to post a link but here it is, you'll probably have to copy and paste it.

Even if it wasn't on the DDP, it is still worth paying for. At least it is to me. Pizza!

WDW website shows that it does participate in 2013.

yes! I agree! id happily pay for it out of pocket.

But its true what the pp said, Disney restaurants aren't finalized until early Jan. I wouldnt panic, this happens all the time to tons of restaurants on Disney property.
