Hello Sarah!
Welcome to planDisney!
Dining plans can be added onto packages purchased directly through Walt Disney World Resort that include a Resort stay and tickets. There are some exceptions to this such as for
Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club Members who are staying at a Walt Disney World Resort Hotel. A traditional bounceback offer or "Future Stay Offer" is a Resort room discount for a future date. They are usually very enticing and worth a good glance. Just like any
package that involves theme park tickets and a Resort room stay purchased from Walt Disney World, you can add on a dining plan. You can add it on during the booking process or later on but no less than 48 hours before you arrive.
If you are hunting for the Future Stay Offer, look for the booklet in your room that says "Your Take-Along Guide to the Magic!" and the offer may be inserted inside as a separate card. You
can also call up to one week after you check out to see if you are eligible for an offer. Don't let the booking window pass and know that
cancellations can be made 30 days or more before you arrive (minus any cancellation fees from other supplies such as travel protection and third-party hotels). It's a win-win situation, Sarah!
I hope this helps and you have a great time this year and maybe next year!
Happy Planning!
