Hi.
This is my first post on this great site and it is about the dining plan. I've researched the plan here and found it to be good value dollar wise. I'm thinking about adding it to our stay June 11th to 19th at the Saratoga. This will be our familiy's first trip to WDW(wife,myself and kids 17,16 and 14). My concerns are - I haven't made any ADRs do to late booking and I am worried about getting restaurants and times we would like. Second, we will only have park transportation and I have read it can take a long time to get from resort to resort. Third, this being our first time and overwhelmed by all to see, I would hate to become a slave to our reservations and use park time running all over. Also, if the kids go off on there own it would be hard to round them up to get to the dinners. Obviously the table service meals make the value. We could just use the kitchen more this trip and try the dining plan another time.
Please let me know any thoughts or ideas you have from your own experiences on this.
Thanks,
Rick
