Hiya Chelsea - welcome to
planDisney!
Thanks for popping over with your question for our team of panelists. We love to help Guests just like you plan your very own, very magical, Walt Disney World Resort vacations!
Chelsea, the
Fantasmic! Dining Packages are a magical way to have a great Table Service breakfast, lunch, or dinner at Disney's Hollywood Studios
and get guaranteed seating at a showing of
Fantasmic! later that same day. As a planner, this is an option that I love! I know that the lack of information about next year has been frustrating - I'm trying to make my own reservations, so I know how you feel!
I keep checking too, and as of right now, dates in January still don't appear with any availability. Based on my own past experiences, I think our friendly Cast Members are still doing some work planning for Fantasmic! schedules to make sure they meet Guest needs. If you've already talked to some Cast Members about this, you may know more than we do here at planDisney because we're Guests just like you!
The good news I can share is that I can't find anything that suggests dining packages
won't be available moving forward. That doesn't mean much, but is at least a little glimmer of hope! I've decided to make alternative dining plans now for the day we want to see Fantasmic! That way I have something booked but can cancel and update my plans if a Fantasmic! Dining Package becomes available.
Chelsea, I really wish I had a more concrete answer, but this is one issue that we've not hEARd updates on!
Please stop by any time with more questions as you continue planning.
Ryan J.
