im thinking of changing to a disney hotel

[tb2830]

well i still cant get out of my head stopping onsite

im planning on booking quite a few adr's which i would be paying oop so think it may be best to stop onsite and have the dining plan

im just waiting for the travel agent to ring me back with prices

[Keith]

ooo thats exciting, which hotel are you thinking of?

[tb2830]

still just a possibility at the moment keith thou if i go ahead it will be all stars :yes:

just playing around with prices at the moment

and depends what the prices are like when the travel agent gets back to me

[Tinkfan]

We like Pop too and have stayed their many times!!

[tb2830]

right ive changed hotels :yes: im now staying at pop century for 2 weeks i havent added the dining plan yet

i need to work out costs first but think its cheaper not to bother

[Tink]

Unless you plan on traveling to places outside of WDW, you won't need a car now. Be very careful with the DDP as you say, it may not be a good value for you.

[Tinkfan]

Tink is right, it depends on how many TS you want. The DDP works for us because we rarely leave the grounds lol! we also book a TS meal each night. This next trip we are going to Universal for 1 day but I booked California Grille which is worth 2 credits so it all evens out!!:tongue:

not having a car now :) and i dont think it would be worth us having the dining plan so going to pay for all our meals

[Keith]

yayayay good choice :yes:

How much is the dining plan per person per night now? and what does it come with?

[tb2830]

its expensive keith 464 per adult 168 per child so that would be 4 adults and 1 child for us :thumbsdown:

I'll go look what you get now. I know its a lot less than it was

[Britchick]

For 2010 you get a counter service entree and dessert and drink, a snack, and sit down meal of a drink, entree and dessert. I don't think I'd ever pay for it too limiting. Don't know what current rate is.

[tb2830]

im not telling the kids or craig that ive changed hotels hopefully i'll be able to keep it secret till weve landed and quicksilver has met us

already updated my api and esta's

[Tinkfan]

Regular DDP in US funds is $42.00 per day per adult 10 and over for 1 table service meal, 1 counter service meal and 1 snack. Example 1 dinner at Boma, 1 lunch at Sunshine Seasons and a bakery item on Main Street! :yes:
