Hello Nicola,
Welcome to planDisney, and thanks for bringing us such a tiggerific question about holidaying at Walt Disney World Resort this coming October.
The
Autumnal months are such beautiful times of year to visit the most magical place on earth! Everything seems to be decked in shades of orange and ochre, and I particularly enjoy seeing the Mickey-shaped Halloween wreaths which adorn the
Magic Kingdom Park in readiness for
Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party nights.
My whole family absolutely loves to
dine our way around Walt Disney World Resort property, and in past years have really enjoyed the
previously available Disney Dining Plans. However, as we
Continue Returning to a World of Magic at Walt Disney World Resort, the Disney Dining Plans remain paused for the meantime.
But all is not lost as I'm more than happy to share that some time ago, the
Disney Parks Blog did in fact indicate that the Disney Dining Plan would be making a return to Walt Disney World Resort "at a later date." But, when that later date will be... only Mickey knows for sure!
Plus, you might be pleased to hear that at present, and for a limited time, Guests are able to book the
Walt Disney Travel Company "The Magic is Yours" holiday packages for select dates in 2023. This extra magical offer includes Disney Dining Credits when opting to book a stay at either
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - Riverside and at
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter.Nicola, it goes without saying that offers are always subject to change at Walt Disney World Resort and that Terms and Conditions of booking will indeed apply.
As the current
UK-based planDisney Panelist, it's always a delight for me to assist a fellow British Guest! So, if you should have any additional questions for me, then please don't hesitate to pop back - anytime!
Have a great Disney day ~
Jane
