Hi Stormy!
Congratulations on your upcoming trip to Walt Disney World!
You will love having the
Disney Dining Plan! On the Disney Dining Plan you will have one Quick Service, one Table Service and one Snack per guest, per night of your stay. You will also get one rapid refill mug per guest in your party for unlimited refills of soda, coffee, hot chocolate and tea at your resort.
Even though the plan states that you get meals based on the night of your stay, you can start using the plan the day you arrive. When you arrive you can go to your resort and check-in and they can hold your bags for you. You should receive your Magic Bands ahead of your trip, so you will be all set to go to the parks or eat prior to your room being ready. You can go enjoy yourself and ask for a text when your room is ready. When you go back to your resort you can have your bags brought to your room.
I usually like to visit
Disney Springs on the first day of my vacation! If you visit, make sure to check out the newly opened
Ganachery. The food at
Paradiso 37 is amazing! Try the South American Crazy Corn.
Magically,
Stacy
