Disney removes HUGE selection of restaurants from Disney Dining Plan
I just entered the latest updates for the Disney Dining Plan for checkins starting 2010. I was shocked at the level of restaurant removals from the plan. I know the ecomony has hit disney hard, but whoa...disney has removed just about ALL the Downtown Disney and MOST world showcase restaurants from the Disney Dining Plan. Now alot more dining location require 2 table service credits than in past years. With all the new removals and restrictions, I am not sure the plan is worth it anymore. I am going to have to review the plan again and do the math. It was already hard enough the get i dining reservation before, I bet it becomes impossible unless you are making them exactly 60 days out. Head on over to the search page and see if your favorite is no longer in the plan. More to come...
