... that you are considering cancelling your trip?
I am. I am so frustrated by reading all of these threads about the changes in the dining plan and the threats of limiting sharing. It truly is putting a damper on my trip and I'm thinking about cancelling it before I have to pay for the rest of my package (in mid-August). Anyone else?
FWIW, we had the free dining package last year. It was sooooo much food and a ton was wasted. Plus, we ended up eating more than we would have because it was there.
So, when we signed up for free dining this year, we planned to share some of our TS meals. Our children are 3 and 6 and literally survive on air. They eat next to nothing. Splitting a children's meal between the two of them still results in over half of it being left on the plate. Plus, DH and I expected that we would share some meals too. We just can't each eat a full meal, appetizer and dessert.
However, now that it seems like we might be treated like criminals if we ask to share, I'm re-thinking this whole trip. The "free" dining (which isn't free because we are paying rack rate) seems like a whole lot of trouble now. So, since this will be our third trip in a year , I'm thinking of cancelling and going in the future when I can get a good room rate and just give up the dining plan altogether.
Just wondering if anyone else is this frustrated.
And if I do decide to cancel, I'll be sure to give everyone here a heads up when I cancel my Le Cellier reservations.
