thought when I priced it out for the premium it was A LOT more money for four of us.(2 adults & 2 Children) Thanks

The one meal plan gives you a counter service, table service and snack per day. We wanted to do a lot of character breakfasts and the HDDR and Spirit of Aloha shows. They "bulk" your dinner points together onto your card. The dinner shows would have "cost" us two table points each. Some of the character breakfasts we were told might be two points. So, we were going to end up paying for additional meals while there and the meals are expensive. The Premium plan came to about $2000 for 7 days/6 nights for four of us - 2 adults and 2 children. I figured that came to $500/week for each person. Not only do you get food with the Premium plan, you get admission to water parks, tickets to the show Naouba (spelling???), free admission to DisneyQuest, etc. etc. I just thought that it would be better to put out the money and know that we were covered for meals 100%, three meals a day with the freedom to do a table meal, counter meal, dinner show, etc. without having to watch our points. I hope that helps explain my choice of meal plans.

Thank you! I did not know that you got admission tickets to other things. Glad the package worked out for your family.
