We will be at DL/CA the week of July 4th. I was planning on booking the dessert party for the 4th (I need to do this in TWO days as it will be 60 days out). I wanted to have a guaranteed spot to watch the show as I expect it will be busy for the holiday and this will ease the stress a bit.
However, in doing my research I am just floored by how little food and drink you get for $79 pp. I do love the fact that you get a table with seating and that is definitely worth a premium, but seriously, one plate of desserts and a bread basket?? In addition, it isn't even the best view! The dining package "standing room" has the best view.
So, I am now considering doing the dining package because it is significantly cheaper and you get a full meal with it. However, the downside I imagine is that there is a long line waiting to even enter the reserved space, then we will have to stand waiting for the show to begin, then we will have to stand during the half hour show. I know this sounds super bratty of me, but any mom with kids knows this can be challenging!! Also, there is no guarantee that we will be "on the railing" so my daughter might not have a great view after all.
SO.....any reviews of experiences with either the dessert party or dining package would be VERY helpful in ultimately making my decision. Both choices have good and no-so-good points to them.
