"Not on Dining Plan"

dannybegood · 8 Oct 19, 11:49 AM

Booked some Disney springs ADR'S today and had the confirmation email for all of them, PH, T-Rex and Rainforest all say "not on DDP"

They show for 2019, do you think this will continue into 2020? Want to keep them but wondering if restaurants are migrating away from it?

Some restaurants don't finalise their Dining Plan contracts til later in the year. This has happened for several years on many of the third party restaurants and I don't think I've ever seen a case where they don't end up accepting the dining plan.

Keep the ADRs, 99.9% chance that they'll be accepting the DDP when you go.

As dav said, from the first time I went 11 years ago, it's always the case that the DDP list has a load missing until they finalise contracts, and it's usually the non-Disney owned places like T-rex, rainforest, and the Epcot ones like Via Napoli, San Angel etc as they are owned by another group.

You'll also see this question crops up about this time of year as well from a multitude of people going around the start of the new year. I'm surprised there's not a sticky for it yet tbh, it would stop a lot of worry that places aren't going to be on the DDP

I also don't think I've ever seen a case where one has come off-plan after being on it for so long, so don't panic.
