Hi, Jennifer! Welcome to planDisney.
Dining is one of the most special parts of any
Walt Disney World Resort vacation. From Mickey-shaped waffles in the morning to elegant dinners with castle views, there’s something for every taste and every age. Walt Disney World has it all—dining with Disney Princesses, enjoying signature dishes by award-winning chefs, watching a show as you devour mouth-watering food, and more! Dining is part of the magic, Jennifer!
If you’ve made a dining reservation for three Guests but only two are able to make it, Hakuna Matata! As long as at least one person shows up and checks in for the reservation, you won’t be charged the no-show fee (which is typically $10 per person). Just let the Cast Member at the host stand know how many are in your party when you arrive, and they’ll take care of the rest. The fee is only applied if no one checks in or if the reservation is canceled too late.
Here’s a tip from someone who’s definitely had to pivot mid-park day: the
My Disney Experience app makes it super easy to modify or cancel dining reservations on the go. If your plans change, try to update your reservation as soon as possible, especially if you’re within that 2-hour cancellation window. It helps avoid fees and opens up spots for other Guests hoping to dine there too!
Thanks for choosing to be our Guest, Jennifer. Happy eating!
Mike
