Does dining plan affect Hoop Dee Doo?

[jakeofwildwood]

Hope my friends here can help. I get to make my 90 day ADR on 6/28. I want to get reservations at Hoop Dee Doo for the first time .

I know there are three tiers for seating, is it first come first serve, your hotel dictates your seat, will the fact that I am Pop and dining plan put me on the third tier?

Your resort has nothing to do with where you sit at HDDR. The tiers are based on price alone. You can use the DDP for tier 2&3 for all shows and for tier 1 at the 9:30 show only. As for what table you get within your tier, that is first come-first served (when you make your ADR) and based on your party size.

We are staying at Pop and on the free dining. We got tier 2 for Sept 13. Not sure what that is like as we have never been before, but i am looking forward to it!

1) Better seats ALWAYS cost more - Broadway or HDDR.
2) Regardless of what people say.
3) Repeat, regardless of what people say.
4) Categories
. . . Cat-1, floor level and back to 2/3 of house
. . . Cat-2, back 2/3 of house to rear of room and some balcony
. . . Cat-3, all balcony, 1/2 of table cranks neck, some views blocked by posts

NOTE: HDDR tables in each category are assigned by the date of the ressie. Earlier ressies get the better tables, in that category. The exception are tables #044 and #045 which are kept open until show-day for last minute handicapped guests. Table numbers are identified as 044 = floor-level, fourth-row-from-front, fourth-table-from-left.

We used the dining plan to book and used the 2 credits. We booked on the 180 day out timeline and got CAT 2
