Is there any way around this?

Getting frustrated trying to pre order🙈
We have 2 8am BOG bookings - the first for our family before other parties arrive - great all ordered👍

The second is for 3 parties (i.e. 3 separate resorts/DDPs) and it says I can preorder but they won’t split checks (so won’t take 3/2/2 as payment)

After messing about for ages logging into each party’s MDE, because the bookings are linked it’s just putting them together as it’s all on one ADR

There’s no way round it for me to separate payment like you can at TS 🙈others are just going have to owe the QS credits to whoever has paid aren’t they?

Book it all as one, then when you get to the podium to pay, the CM will split the bill for you

Thanks for reply Vicki
Will they split it even though on the order it says the below?

Ah, I haven't seen that message before, so it looks like they won't be able to. I think you'll have to do the 'one person pay and others pay back option'. It's only 1 meal so should be pretty easy to do

Yeah thought we might, not a massive problem I guess, just a pain as everything down to me to remember as we go through the holiday 🙄

It could be worse - the cost (that I’d never pay!) would be $196 for breakfast without DDP 😲

The only other option is for them to order individually at the podiums rather than pre-order. One up side is they'd all get a plate of pastries!

I was going to do this, but thought I’d read it takes ages if you queue
We just want to be in the SDMT queue before opening!

ETA: I’ve ordered 5 breakfasts between 7 of us as 2 kids (10 & 13) and it looks like a plenty of food for some of us ‘no breakfast normally’ people

(The rest of our breakfast bookings are c.10/10.30)

Do you think if we order there it will delay us getting out before 8.45am?
Can we send a couple of them to get a table?

Yes, the queues for the podiums can be long, so pre-ordering is definitely the better option. I wouldn't risk it if you want to be out early.

5 between 7 is plenty, especially with all the pastries. Plus, it's easy enough for anyone who's still hungry to grab a snack afterwards. The cinnamon rolls at Gaston's Tavern are meant to be nice and huge. Not tried them myself though as I don't like cinnamon.

Pre order (and sort out later) it is then and I’ll stick with 5 for 7👍

Love cinnamon rolls, can’t wait to try Gaston’s as Cinnabon are my favourite
