A great review, thanks. We only do QSDP & we think that's too much food, usually have credits left, & felt full all the time, as well as having a fridge full of deserts. At least this time we can convert any leftover credit to snacks & bring home sweets!

Most of the restaurants have a 1 day cancellation policy (most not all - so check!) but this is not 24 hours. As long as you cancel before midnight the day before your reservation you wont be fined.
Our last minute change happened when we were due to eat at T-Rex. We got off the bus at DTD to an absolute deluge. We stood in the bus stop for 20 minutes and an OKW bus pulled up. I said to Michelle - lets just go back, I will speak to concierge about the $20 dollar fine and worse case scenario is we lose that $20 for staying dry. When we were on the bus I pulled up the menu for Olivias on my phone and we decided to get off at Hospitality House and go there. After dinner I spoke to concierge and explained about the rain and that I had still eaten dinner at a DDP restaurant. I used my usual tactics when asking CM's for a favour. I smiled, said please and thank you and was very polite. She sorted it out straight away for me and we weren't fined for the no show. If you need to cancel short notice for a particular reason just do what I did and ask the question.

I think I would probably agree with you - the desserts just push it over the edge. We did struggle to eat our snacks some days but we bought some items to have as breakfast/late night snacks and a couple of bags of Goofy Candy to bring home.
LTT has a pretty good rep among Dibbers but our US cousins seem to give it a hard time. Common complaints seem to be cold food and poor service and our experience couldn't have been further from that. I also felt like I was eating thanksgiving dinner which I've always wanted to try Having the food budget removed from our spends was a big relief. It was so good knowing that I didnt have to budget for it. Tips were OK too, usually about 10-12 dollars per table service.

Yeah I've seen this before as well. To be fair though we didn't waste much. I tried to have a bit of a loose plan for our QS meals as well as our TS. There are some excellent QS options in WDW and in my opinion Pecos Bills inst one of them, especially since they did away with the melty plastic cheese!

Very Serious Dibber

We were in the queue once when an American made out he was with us just after we ordered and paid using his credits. Afterwards, he told us it was his last day and his family had loads of credits left, so they decided to gift them in this way to random strangers. Made our day

This was my plan if we didn't use our QS. At one point we were way behind on them but the Pepper Market at Coronado Springs rescued us!

We do too. I always like to have a rough idea how I'm going to use the QS credits. If we have loads left after the first week we start to slot in the odd breakfast. We had 3 signatures last year though so it was easy to use up QS credits and we even paid OOP for a couple of meals. We were still in the area after we checked out from CBR so had an "extra" evening to use credits.

Great news about Sanaa. We've not done DDP before and staying onsite at AKL for the first time and it is top of our list!
