Hi Shawna, and welcome to planDisney! The
Disney Dining Plans are a great way to give your vacation an all-inclusive feel, and I love to purchase them during EPCOT festivals since some food booth items qualify as a Snack Credit. So with the
EPCOT International Festival of the Arts coming up, this is the perfect time!
I recently added a dining plan to my Disney resort hotel stay, and as a fellow Annual Passholder, I didn’t have a vacation package with theme park tickets. To do this for your booking, you’ll need to call the
Tickets and Hotel Reservations phone number since Dining Plans can’t be added to our type of resort hotel stay online. They can also confirm the current price, although it currently appears to be $98.59 per adult per night for the Disney Dining Plan and $60.47 per adult per night for the Quick Service Dining Plan.
While there aren’t Passholder discounts on the dining plans, there are a couple of special offers that you can take advantage of this year! If you have
kids ages 3 to 9, they’re eligible for a free Dining Plan in 2026 if you’re staying at a Disney resort hotel and purchase a Dining Plan for every guest ages 10 and up on the room reservation. This is an amazing value!
There’s also a new room discount for Passholders where you can save
up to 40% on Disney resort hotel stays this summer. There’s no better excuse for booking another visit! Between this offer and the free dining for kids (not to mention
complimentary water park admission), I’m extremely tempted to add another vacation this summer.
For all the latest Passholder news, perks, and discounts, keep an eye on the Passholder Buzz section of the
My Disney Experience app. You can get to it through the home screen if you scroll down to Discover The Passholder Buzz!
One last thing I wanted to mention before I go. You can easily see your remaining dining credits in the My Disney Experience app during your stay. Go to ☰ in the lower right corner and select Hotel Reservations (under My Visit). On the next screen, look for the "Check Dining Plan" icon under your room number. This will show you how many credits you have left for Quick Service and Table Service Meals, and Refillable Drink Mugs. You wouldn’t want any of your precious credits to go to waste!
I’m wishing you a magical stay at Disney World this weekend, full of delicious treats! And if you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to visit us again at planDisney.
