I was able to make dining reservations this morning for our December 21-28 trip! It’s our first and probably only Christmas trip, so I want to make the best of it! I was pleased that I got everything we wanted, but I did book more meals than I’m sure we will want, so I will end up canceling some reservations. I really wish they’d change the rules so you can’t book dining until after the 60 day fastpass window!
Here’s what we got:
Homecomin’ & 50s Prime Time (new to us)- will cancel one, depends on the park we do on arrival day
The Plaza Restaurant (new to us)
Sci-Fi Dine In Theater
Teppan Edo
Tutto Italia (will cancel this once I can book Candlelight Processional dining package)
Tusker House
Be Our Guest
Beaches & Cream (haven’t been here since my honeymoon 20 years ago!)
Rose & Crown
Trattoria al Forno (new to us- doing character breakfast)
We’re a family of 4, but my husband will only be with us for 4 of the 8 days. We don’t do the dining plan and really like the flexibility of only ordering what we want! I’m also nervous about the crowds, so I wanted to have a reservation every day just to get away from crowds.
Right now I’ve got The Plaza Restaurant booked twice- for dinner our 2nd night and an early lunch on Christmas Day. I was thinking we’d leave Magic Kingdom right after our lunch reservation on Christmas Day. We’re planning to park hop to Animal Kingdom Christmas Day also. Thoughts on the Christmas Day plan???
I was thinking of replacing the dinner at The Plaza Restaurant with 1900 Park Fare dinner since we’ve never done it before and I’ve heard good things about the characters (my kids will be 13 & 11).
Any feedback is appreciated. Especially from those of you have been over Christmas week.
