Yes, most likley it'll be the end of the "pooled adult/child QS credits". Think about it, it has to....as only adults are allotted an alcoholic beverage at a QS. I cant see an adult using up all of his/her QS credits, then trying to use the remainder and pass it off as their own in order to get more alcohol. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.Like I asked in another thread, I'm wondering if this will spell the end of the adult and child TS credits being counted as the same on the DxDDP, as well as QS credits.

That's technically not correct. Everyone, adult or child, will be allowed a specialty drink as their beverage entitlement; it's just that you have to be 21 to get a drink with alcohol, of course. It all depends on what "specialty drinks" are available at any given location.
But if only the adult is in the ordering line at a QS and orders all adult meals, they can get an alcoholic beverage with ALL those meals. They'll have to then get their kids something else to drink, but technically, they can get an adult beverage with a child credit.
many, many people have figured out that having two rooms and only one room on the DxDDP means you can get all adult meals and pay child prices for some of them. If they're using credits just for the adults and paying OOP for the kids, they will also be getting adult beverages and paying child prices.
I find that... unlikely... given photo ID laws. I imagine that there will need to be an adult - with ID - present per meal ordered that will contain alcohol. It'd be too big of a liability for Disney to not do that.
I agree with you, but I don't think they've thought this through. What about the mobile ordering being done at AK? And just everyone having to be in the QS line and have their ID out?
Somehow, they're going to have to close the pooling of QS and DxDDP credits and truly make kid's order off the kid's menu for this to not become a nightmare.
On the first point, I think you'll have to have the right number of ID-carrying adults present at order pickup. I can't see any other way around it and not risk violating laws/regulations.
On the second point, it may help to do that, but it doesn't change the fact that ages 10-20 are still "adults" and you still have the same problem, just to a smaller extent.
I haven't seen anything about alcohol being included in the 2018 plans. Are details posted anywhere about the rumor/info?
