It's great to see you here today at the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Laura!
It's no secret around here that I really love using the
Disney Dining Plan when I'm on vacation. It's so convenient to have all of our meals taken care of in advance, and everyone is just able to choose exactly what they want to have instead of making that decision based solely on the price of the entrée. I think it's really smart for you to look into the Dining Plan for your family vacation next year, and I'm happy to walk you through how you can figure out the pricing.
The reason you're not seeing any specific price for the Dining Plan is because there are a few moving parts involved in determining it, like the kind of Dining Plan you want, the number of people who are traveling with you and how old they are, and how long you plan on staying at your
Walt Disney World Resort Hotel. The total cost will vary depending on what you choose, and for that reason
I suggest calling Disney Resort Hotel Reservations so they can break it down for you and show you exactly what the total would be for your party. You can also build your own vacation package on the Walt Disney World Resort website, and the total will be displayed there for you before you make the decision to book. You can even play around with the options and add and remove different versions of the Dining Plan to customize something that's right for your party!
I hope this answers your question, Laura, and please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help you plan your magical vacation.
