BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 From the Disney Food BLog. I've also posted their previous article on the 2012 Dining Plan changes below.Of particular note is that they've officially added Trails End Takeaway to the Counter Service Credit list. Not sure if this will be along the lines of what we've already seen lately where pretty much everything but the GAG and pizza is eligible for CS credits? New Restaurants Join the 2012 Disney Dining PlanDec 18th, 2011 by AJ.We gave you a bunch of updates and changes to the Disney Dining Plan in our 2012 Disney Dining Plan Changes post.But now that many of the non-Disney-owned restaurants have finalized their commitment to the DDP, we have a clearer picture of where you’ll be able to dine with the Disney Dining Plan next year. Added to the list in 2012 are the following restaurants:2 Table-Service CreditsEpcotBistro de ParisDowntown DisneyFultons Crab HouseWolfgang Puck Dining Room (upstairs)One Table-Service CreditDowntown Disney and AKRainforest Cafe (both locations)Downtown DisneyTRex CafeBongos Cuban CafeCrossroads at House of BluesPortobelloParadiso 37Counter-Service CreditAKBeastly KioskMr. Kamal’sEpcotKatsura Grill replaces Yakitori House on the listDHSMin & Bill’s Dockside DinerMKDiamond HorseshoeFriar’s NookGolden Oak OutpostTortuga Tavern replaces El Pirata y el Perico on the listDowntown DisneyBongo’s Cuban Cafe Sandwich Window and Marketplace SnacksResortsTrails End TakeawayTurtle ShackPaddock GrillArt of Animation Resort’s Landscapes Cafe (Phase 1 Scheduled to open Summer 2012)Water ParksCooling HutLowtide Lou’sSnack ShackSurf DoggiesBasically, this means that nearly every restaurant is now included on the Disney Dining Plan except for those at the Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resorts. You can see the full 2012 Disney Dining Plan PDF here.If you notice other updates to the list, just drop us a line and let us know! In the meantime, check out our extensive info about the Disney Dining Plan here!http://www.disneyfoo...lan/#more-44345 2012 Disney Dining Plan ChangesJun 13th, 2011 by AJ.Details for the 2012 Disney Dining Plans have begun to be unveiled! See Pricing below (thanks to reader Pudge the Fish for this!). And there are a few changes you need to know about if you’re planning a 2012 trip. Standard Disney Dining Plan to Include Refillable MugsLet’s look at the thirst-quenching addition first. The standard Disney Dining Plan will include refillable mugs!Our first clue that this addition was likely in the works was via the release of the Virgin Holidays 2012 free dining package details for United Kingdom guests. And we can now confirm that refillable mugs will be included in all standard Disney Dining Plan packages! You’ll receive one refillable mug per person for refills at quick-service locations ONLY in your Disney resort hotel. Quick-Service Dining Plan Reduces Snack Quota to One Per DayQuick Service Disney Dining Plans didn’t fare as well for the 2012 season. If you love snacks (cupcakes, Dole Whip and more!), the significant change is that only one snack will be allowed per person per day on the Quick Service plan. Be still our snack-worthy hearts (and stomachs)! Wine and Dine Plan Seems to be Missing…As of right now, we don’t see an indication of the Wine and Dine plan in 2012. As we know, these preliminary info releases are missing a lot of updates and changes that could lock into place closer to the end of the year, so we can’t definitively say that this won’t be returning. All the same, we wanted to give you a heads up that it’s not appearing at the moment. Pricing UpdatesQuick-Service Dining Plan (all year long)$34.99 per night ages 10 and up$11.99 per night age 3 to 9Standard Dining Plan (Value and Regular Season)$51.54 per night ages 10 and up$15.02 per night age 3 to 9Standard Dining Plan (Peak Season)$53.54 per night ages 10 and up$16.02 per night ages 3 to 9Deluxe Dining Plan (Value and Regular Season)$85.52 per night ages 10 and up$23.79 per night ages 3 to 9Deluxe Dining Plan (Peak Season)$89.52 per night ages 10 and up$25.79 per night ages 3 to 9 More Updates to ComeWhile restaurants are listed on the plans, it’ll take some time before all eateries are finalized (usually some restaurants wait until the last minute to re-up their status in the Dining Plan). Stay tuned for more Disney Dining Plan information as it is released.Thanks to Disney Op Ed and reader Pudge the Fish for the heads up and extra details on this news!http://www.disneyfoo...g-plan-changes/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
