Walt Disney World has introduced an elevated meals & beverage low cost at choose eating places in Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom, and the resort motels for Annual Passholders this summer season. This shares a listing of the taking part eating areas, together with fast suggestions for anybody questioning the place to eat with the superior financial savings!
For starters, V.I.PASSHOLDER Days (or VIP Passholder Days, if you wish to sound it out and take away the yelling) are a limited-time providing only for Annual Passholders at Walt Disney World Resort. It’s the corporate’s means of claiming ‘thanks’ for being a Walt Disney World Annual Passholder!
V.I.Passholder Days are operating now via June 26, 2024 at Walt Disney World. Throughout this occasion, APs are in a position to make the most of unique perks and reductions all through the parks and resorts in the course of the month-long appreciation occasion (most of that are at EPCOT). As lined in our Information to V.I.PASSHOLDER Days, there’s a free magnet and lounge, and different freebies and perks for Annual Passholders in the course of the subsequent month-plus.
Till now, one of many conspicuous omissions for VIP Passholder Days as in comparison with final 12 months was reductions. Certain, there’s 20% off DisneyStore.com or no matter, however doesn’t that website appear to have perpetual gross sales and coupon codes? Not solely that, however the web site solely carries a small fraction of the theme park merchandise out there at Walt Disney World.
Final 12 months, there have been further in-park reductions for merchandise and meals & beverage, together with each desk service eating places and the Outside Kitchens for the EPCOT Flower & Backyard Pageant. Truthfully, I kinda anticipated the identical factor 12 months. Within the post-pent-up demand interval, it definitely doesn’t really feel like merchandise is transferring as properly or there’s as a lot free spending on meals & beverage.
My private principle is that, for most individuals, trip budgets are restricted. Consequently, the added price of Genie+ will not be purely a brand new income stream for Walt Disney World–at the very least, not completely. Reasonably, it’s a reallocation of spending, away from souvenirs or eating and in the direction of line-skipping. Since that’s extra “important” to the park expertise, these with finite budgets (most individuals!) are shifting funds from one factor to a different, versus merely spending extra.
After all, this isn’t every little thing–and there’s most likely some extent of each occurring (spending extra and finances reallocation), however that’s however my principle. I feel that fairly properly explains why stuff is not flying off of cabinets and ADRs have gotten a lot, a lot simpler over the course of the final 12 months–even for standard eating places. However I digress–that’s not the purpose of this publish!
If you happen to’re hungry for much more V.I.PASSHOLDER Days exclusives, get able to fulfill your urge for food, as a result of beginning Could 28 via June 26, 2024, Annual Passholders can make the most of elevated eating reductions at choose desk service eating places throughout Walt Disney World. Whether or not you’re attempting to finish the ‘Passholder Foodie Problem’ or in search of an excuse to eat at your favourite spot on property, now’s your likelihood to have your cake and eat it too…actually.

Actually all the eating places on the listing have strengths and compelling promoting factors–be it delicacies, characters, views, ambiance, and many others. We like all of them for various causes.
In terms of the parks, each of the Animal Kingdom choices are nice. Over at DHS, it may be the same story relying upon what you order (and, once more, your expectations since a few of these excel at theme or enjoyable, reasonably than delicacies)–I’m significantly curious concerning the new menu at Mama Melrose. At EPCOT, we’ll most likely use the elevated low cost to revisit Backyard Grill or Akershus, or maybe save on what might be an enormous invoice at Le Cellier.
Magic Kingdom is, as all the time, probably the most combined bag. We like each Be Our Visitor and Skipper Canteen, however they’re polarizing–you most likely received’t discover many followers who take pleasure in each of these. It’s normally, at most, one or the opposite. Maintaining on our character kick, we’ll most likely attempt to knock out breakfast at Crystal Palace.

Right here’s hoping we get higher reductions once more in the course of the fall low season, too!
