Hello there, Shelley. Thanks for stopping by
planDisney with your question. There is no better way to start off the new year than with a trip to Walt Disney World. That is going to be so much fun.
Shelley, here at planDisney we are a group of moms, dads, aunts, uncles, grandparents and even puppy parents that love sharing our knowledge about planning an awesome Walt Disney World vacation. Because we are Guests, just like you, I don't have any insider knowledge to share with you about when the
Disney Dining Plan might return. The good news is that we do know that it is for sure coming back but the bad news is we still don't know when. We are returning to a world of magic more and more every day and I think that is a step in the right direction. I've noticed several more Walt Disney World restaurants opening back up lately and I think that is a good sign. I've been keeping my eyes peeled over on the
Disney Parks Blog for an update about the Disney Dining Plan, that's going to be where we find out all of the information when it is released to us.
If I had to guess, and of course this is just my opinion, I wouldn't be surprised if the Disney Dining Plan returns at the start of next year, Shelley, which would be really great for your vacation. If it does return by then, and you've already purchased your Walt Disney World vacation package, I am certain you'll be able to add it on. If it looks anything like it did before, you'll probably have up to 48 hours prior to your check-in date to include it if you choose.
I am sorry I don't have more of an update for you at this time, Shelley. If you have any other questions about your upcoming Walt Disney World vacation, feel free to stop back by and
ask me. I'm here to help.
Have fun and happy planning!
