Hi Kelli!
My boys love dining at T-Rex, It's a little loud and wild, but lots of fun (sounds like I just described my boys)!You can make reservations online or by calling (407) W-Disney up to 180 days from the date you wish to dine.If you are a guest staying on Disney property you have the advantage of booking 180+10. This means that exactly 180 days from your arrival date you can begin making reservations for not only your arrival day, but for the remainder of your vacation.This is just one of the many perks of staying at Walt Disney World resort and gives you ahead start on the more elusive reservations.
Currently for
2014 Disney's Dining Plan, T-Rex is not on the list of participating restaurants just yet. Not to worry, I highly anticipate that it will be added before the end of the year.Each year Disney has to re-negotiate contracts with certain restaurants for the dining plan, but this usually doesn't happen until after the following year's dining plan information has been released.The list of participating restaurants will continue to have additions until the final list is released usually in December or early January.It happens every year and is no indicator that a restaurant won't be participating in the dining plan, it takes just a little longer since the restaurant is not owned by Walt Disney World.I would take a look at the participating restaurants on the
2013 Disney Dining Plan to get a better idea of what restaurants will probably be added for next year.Currently the only restaurants that I know will not be back is Captain Jack's in Downtown Disney as it will be closing its doors this August.
I hope this helps and if you need anymore planning advice, just let me know!
Happy Planning!
