Disney Dining Plan - Tiffins FOLK Tier II

Just a quick question around Festival of the Lion King at Tiffins.

The Disney Website says "This amazing package includes a 3-course gourmet meal".

My question is that on normal Disney Dining Plans, a 2 TS signature meal would normally include one entrée and one dessert and a drink.

If on Deluxe, it would also include one appetizer.

My question is are people that want to dine at Tiffins and are on regular DDP, are they not better off booking FOLK Tier II, even if they don't want to watch the show, if only for an included appetizer.

Cheers,
Adam

The same seems to apply to Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade Dining Package @ Tonys.

disneyworld.disney.go/en...ining-package/

"Each dining package comes complete with an appetizer, entrée, dessert and non-alcoholic beverage, along with a VIP viewing voucher."

Yep some dining packages are 3 courses. They're better value but people don't necessarily realise the benefit.

It was originally available between August and November '18.

Looks like it was extended Dec through March '19, so maybe they're just reviewing it in 4 month stints.

I can only see up to the 31st of March on MDE too.

Hi, I'm very new to this but I am planning my ADRs now as I'm arriving on 26th July 2019 for 14 days and definitely wanted to book the FOLK dining package. Am I right in saying it's 2 DDP credits but you get 3 courses plus a drink for this?

Correct.

Normally (unless you’re on deluxe dining plan) you’d just get 2 courses.

But with FOLK dining package, (tier 2 seats only), you get 3 courses plus a drink.

Thanks Adam. Definitely doing this then. Did you decide on Tier 1 or Tier 2?

We’re on Disney dining plan, which is only available for the tier 2 seats.

If you’re paying out of pocket, you’d have to weigh up if the extra $25 or so is worth it for front row seats and the private kilamanjaro safari.

Thanks - good advice. It's a bit of a minefield as this is our first time as a family to WDW but I'm absorbing the vast arrays of information quite well!
