Character Dining/Fantasmic Dining Restaurants

I saw a post on another site,about an "issue" with booking a Fantasmic dining experience, and ending up with a Character dining experience instead. Just for information on this forum, if you wish to go to the Character dining experience at a restaurant that offers it, just book normally. If you want the Fantasmic dining experience, you need to chose either Hollywood & Vine, Mama Melrose or Brown Derby. Below the "usually dining reservation area" is the Fantasmic option. You will need to chose your restaurant, dining time and if you chose Hollywood &Vine, I have been told by Disney that you will not have a character dining experience during those time slots. Also, from what I understand, you will also need to hang in to your Fantasmic VIP pass that they will give you at the restaurant.

I hope this helps clear up a few questions on how to book your perfect dining experience.
