Yup, that's really it, in a nutshell.For us compulsive overplanners "subject to change at any time" is a problem - hard to plan around, but that's our problem, not Disney's.

People who don't, use travel agents and they have the brochures to give to their clients.

If you look at the brochure (either the 4 page or 5 page ) you will see that it was never designed as a sales piece. In fact, the prices of the plan are not even mentioned in the brochure.wdwobsessed said:I will go one step further and say I can't believe they don't mail the brochure out with your travel docs! That would make the most sense. I still wonder what happens to people who don't know much about the net. (Yes, they do exist.)
Yep...in so many ways.I think the Mouse is Mysterious too.
wdwobsessed said:Totally your opinion ... not fact.
I own a business that caters to children and I talk to dozens of parents each year who are taking the plunge. They have no clue of anything for the most part and a lot of TA's are worse.

Here's the link to the four-pager...used to bring up the 5-pager which is apparently lost in cyberspace somewhere now.Denise Thies said:I only see a 2 page brochure/.
wdwobsessed said:I was really thinking I would come on today and someone would have provided me with a link to the 5pg brochure that included the FAQ.
The silence is making me think no one else can pull it up either? If people could check and tell me what they got that would be great.
Maybe something is wrong with my computer.

Sorry, I guess I misunderstood.wdwobsessed said:My statement got all twisted somehow.
1st: I was not saying that WDW should send out the brochure as a sales tool. I know it's an owners manual ... but an owners manual to an item that requires advanced preperation and planning ... yet they choose to pass it out at check in when it's really kinda too late at that point. (Where TS is concerned anyway).
I stated it should be sent out with your travel docs I never said anything about it being used as a sales tool so I don't even know where that came into play. In other words ... my trip is paid in full and they will send my travel docs to me now. As a person who already paid for the package with the DDP ... I should be getting a brochure on how to use it. Not when I check in!WDWO
I'm still going with "The Mouse is mysterious."yellowfish78 said:Five Page Dining Plan Brochure
This comes up as the five page dining plan brochure. I hope it helps!
(Being a TA myself, everyone get's one of these when they put their deposit down, dining plan or no dining plan. Sometimes it convinces them to add the dining plan; if not, it at leasts aids them in finding restaurants and booking them on their own.)
Does that mean the 5 page didn't come up for you then?JimMIA said:I'm still going with "The Mouse is mysterious."
No, the link worked perfectly. Thanks. I'll just miss all of our speculation and intrigue!yellowfish78 said:Does that mean the 5 page didn't come up for you then?
You didn't ruin anything -- I'm sure there's a plot here somewhere!yellowfish78 said:Glad I could help (even if I did ruin the mystery!)
Both of those links are for TAs only. The one on disneytravelagents.com is in a directory named "2006" while the one on the Disney website is named "2003" -- you do the math.momtotwinglesx4 said:No worries Jim--mystery is still on. Yellowfin's copy of the brochure was from disneytravelagents.com website.
Here's the brochure from Disney's website (5th page still mysteriously missing)
